The Daily Herold: 7/22/26 - Declassification Dump Fallout and the $1.5 Trillion Pentagon Ask

Jon Herold gets fired up for tonight's Power Hour while working through a batch of newly posted declassification documents Trump shared overnight, including Michigan's fraudulent voter registration numbers, non citizen voting data from a handful of states, and a CIA rundown of Chinese election influence tactics. He plays clips of Pete Hegseth defending a $1.5 trillion defense budget request and Trump himself dodging a question on China consequences, and digs into New Jersey's non citizen voter registration dispute between the state and its software vendor. Other topics include a new Clarity Act draft targeting officials' crypto holdings, an extended National Guard deployment in DC, and a preview of tonight's Power Hour discussion on the DSA's grip on the Democratic Party. Sponsor reads, market updates, and a lively open chat session round out a busy hump day show.
