    From Texas Slim
      Producers, I have a formal letter from the trail this morning, sent straight from my brother in Christ, Texas Slim. He wrote this at exactly 4:44 AM. Stand by, because there is a lot more to be revealed here.
      He writes:
      To the No Agenda Family,
      This is Texas Slim, speaking to you as a sovereign individual. The cowboy is temporarily laid up off the rodeo circuit. Everything is all right, but the trail has been long. I need some time, some patience, and some persistence to let the Lord put some gas back in my tank — mind, body, and spirit.
      This journey isn't just about me. This is a family affair. It is about my family, my parents, and your family. Adam and I are brothers in Christ. We are our brothers' keepers.
      While I am resting, I am going deeper into Psalm 50:10: 'For every beast of the forest is Mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills.'
      That is the foundation of true Beef Intelligence. It belongs to the Creator and to sovereign families. Once I am healed up, I am bringing that full intelligence to the world.
      In the meantime, the journey continues. Support for a sovereign family on the mend is probably needed right now to keep the camp moving while the cowboy heals. More information is coming up.
      Stand by.
      Producers, when you hear this today, I want everyone to take a collective pause. Look at your own life. Reach out to your mom. Reach out to your dad. Reach out to your brother, your sister, and your parents. We are all our brothers' keepers.
      The Call to Action:
      There will be much more coming from the Healing Trail. Stand by, because I will keep everyone completely up to date. As the trail unfolds, I will let you know exactly where and when to place your support for Slim and his family.
      For now, keep them in your prayers, send that strength down the trail, and stay tuned.
      Amen.

    08 REAGAN-NATIONAL-ECONOMIC-FORUM
      Treasury Secretary Bessent's RNEF keynote (2026-05-30) is the show's spine: Bessent-Kudlow fireside Q+A (Operation Economic Fury / Navy active since WWII / Karg Island / China only client / $1B crypto seized / IRGC stealing $500M-mo / Trump $250 bill seigniorage / Trump Savings Accounts) + Bessent prepared speech (10-clip series — Reagan 250th-anniversary frame / 'economic security IS national security' thesis / China-WTO PNTR error / 'we forgot production' / industrial-base options / Section 232 critical minerals / doctrine-clarification anaphora / 'while America slept' anaphora / 'morning again in America' closer) + AI Infrastructure Panel + Housing Affordability Panel.
      ------------
      📝 Notes & BOTG
        BOTG — Anaphora definition (Adam liked the word — Bessent used it twice in the RNEF keynote)
          Sam's summary
            Greek-origin rhetorical device: same word/phrase deliberately repeated at the beginning of successive clauses for emphasis
            Pronounced uh-NAF-er-uh
            Classic: Churchill 'We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields…'
          Bessent's two anaphora moments in the RNEF keynote (2026-05-30)
            Anaphora #1 — 'It does not mean…' (4 parallel statements demolishing strawman doctrine — clip BESSENT-SPEECH -8-)
              'It does not mean retreating from the world.'
              'It does not mean severing ties indiscriminately.'
              'It does not mean rejecting efficiency.'
              'And it does not mean treating allies and adversaries alike.'
            Anaphora #2 — 'While America slept…' (3 parallel statements building emotional weight — clip BESSENT-SPEECH -9-)
              'While America slept, our vulnerabilities grew.'
              'While America slept, too many leaders accepted failed supply chains as the price of modern life.'
              'While America slept, we let industrial policy erode and Main Street decay.'
          Why it matters for the show
            Conscious echo of Reagan-era political speechcraft — anaphora was Reagan's go-to device
            Bessent + Kudlow intentionally re-using the form to frame Trump's agenda as Reagan 2.0 / Morning in America 2.0
            Vocabulary moment — Adam can drop the definition mid-segment when reading -8- or -9-
        BOTG — Seigniorage explainer (Adam PREP text — pairs with BESSENT -4- $250 bill clip)
          Sam's summary
            Correct spelling: 'seigniorage' (pronounced seen-your-ij), NOT 'seniorage' as Bessent said
            Definition: difference between face value of money and cost to produce it
            BEP only costs a few cents to print any banknote → government locks in massive 'profit' the moment currency is issued
            PAIRS WITH BESSENT -4-
          How seigniorage benefits the Treasury
            (1) Direct revenue — Fed earns interest on bonds backing the cash, remits net earnings back to Treasury → offsets deficit without raising taxes
            (2) Interest-free loan from public — when people hold cash (wallet, mattress, overseas reserve), they're effectively giving govt 0% loan
          Why a $250 bill amplifies this
            $1 bill: cost ~7¢, immediate seigniorage $0.93
            $100 bill: cost ~14¢, immediate seigniorage $99.86
            Proposed $250 bill: cost ~15-18¢ (estimated), immediate seigniorage ~$249.82
            $250 costs virtually the same to print as $100 → immediate financial delta per note is MORE THAN DOUBLE
          Semiquincentennial commemorative angle
            Designed as 250th-anniversary commemorative note
            Significant number snapped up by collectors, kept as souvenirs, or held abroad
            When cash is taken out of active circulation and hoarded, govt retains seigniorage profit INDEFINITELY
            Note never returns to a bank to be exchanged or destroyed

        🔥 ADAM-EXPLICIT: IRS-leak severity + §6103 Watergate origins (text explainer — pairs with 02 MSNOW + 03 WTKR clips)
          Sam's summary
            Adam wants this read mid-show as historical setup for the IRS clips
            §6103 was written in 1976 SPECIFICALLY because Nixon weaponized the IRS during Watergate
            PAIRS WITH 02 MSNOW -1- -2- -3- (settlement-corruption beat) and 03 WTKR (severity audio payoff)
          Key clarifier
            It was NOT the IRS acting institutionally that leaked Trump's tax filings
            It was a rogue insider — IRS contractor Charles Littlejohn — who stole and leaked the tax returns of Trump and thousands of wealthy Americans to the press
          How severe is this?
            Massive breach of public trust in the eyes of the federal government
            American tax system relies on 'voluntary compliance' — citizens honestly report finances because government legally guarantees absolute privacy
            When an insider leaks tax records for political/personal reasons, it compromises the integrity of the entire system
            Federal felony — YES
          26 U.S. Code § 6103 — Confidentiality of Returns
            Foundational privacy law
            Passed by Congress in 1976 as part of a suite of reforms following the WATERGATE scandal
            Purpose: prevent the executive branch from weaponizing the IRS
            Establishes blanket rule: all tax returns + 'return information' (identity, income source, audit status) are strictly confidential
            Cannot be disclosed by federal employees or contractors unless explicitly authorized by law
          26 U.S. Code § 7213 — Unauthorized Disclosure of Information
            Specific criminal statute punishing leaks
            Federal felony for any officer/employee/contractor of the U.S. to willfully disclose unauthorized tax information
            Penalties: up to 5 years federal prison + fine up to $5,000 + immediate dismissal from employment
            Post-Littlejohn legislation: penalties up to 10 years + $250,000 fine, treating each affected taxpayer as a distinct violation
          Real-world fallout
            Littlejohn pled guilty to unauthorized disclosure of tax return information
            Jan 2024 federal judge sentenced him to 5 years prison — STATUTORY MAXIMUM for single count
            Judge stated max was necessary to send clear deterrence message
            Trump filed $10B civil suit against IRS + Treasury for failing to safeguard his data
            May 2026: DOJ attempted to settle by permanently barring IRS from auditing Trump family's past tax returns AND creating multi-billion-dollar 'Anti-Weaponization Fund'
            Federal judge recently reopened the case to investigate whether settlement is unlawful conflict of interest
          Suggested NA on-air pairing (Adam's plan)
            Adam reads text setup mid-show: 'So Congress wrote 26 USC §6103 in 1976 SPECIFICALLY because Nixon weaponized the IRS during Watergate — that's the entire reason the IRS confidentiality protections exist'
