In this episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold is joined by Ashe in America for a sharp discussion on narrative warfare and the spiritual battle woven through current events. They explore the suspicious rollout of "Epstein list" narratives, questioning whether certain stories are being used to bait and divide the movement. Ashe draws parallels between past operations like Russiagate and today's headlines, emphasizing the importance of discernment and resisting the urge to demand justice on scripted timelines.

The pair also reflect on their personal struggles with burnout and the cost of staying in the fight, highlighting the importance of saying “no” to distractions, fake urgency, and spiritually draining content. They dig into Trump’s messaging strategy, the cycles of controlled outrage, and how both mainstream and alt-media figures may be manipulated into repeating demoralizing patterns.

With a mix of candid vulnerability and strategic insight, this conversation challenges listeners to stay grounded, avoid the traps of emotional warfare, and lean into faith and community. It's a call to embrace clarity and courage in an environment designed to exhaust, confuse, and divide.
