In this mind-bending episode of Devolution Power Hour, Jon Herold and Chris Paul take listeners on a two-hour journey through quantum tech, media psyops, and the unraveling of physical reality itself. At the heart of the discussion is General Steven Kwast’s bombshell interview on the Sean Ryan Show, where he outlines how quantum communication could rewrite history, and why it proves the existence of God. The hosts analyze what this means for military strategy, continuity of government, and even the foundational assumptions behind our reality.
Trump’s aggressive push for nuclear energy via the Defense Production Act is also dissected, alongside questions of executive power, devolution strategy, and wartime governance. The episode covers AI deepfakes, prompt theory, simulation parallels in media, and the potential misuse of quantum tech for surveillance or even historical erasure.
Herold and Paul layer in philosophical and theological reflections, weaving in Trump’s American Academy proposal, Harvard’s colonial charter, Flynn’s continuity of government warning, and Epstein file inconsistencies, all under a meta lens of truth, technology, and trust.
This is not just political commentary, it’s a philosophical expedition into power, perception, and the future
