No Agenda Episode 1881: 'Cow Cartel' Dissects Political Shifts, Media Narratives, and a Tick Outbreak

In Episode 1881 of the No Agenda Show, titled 'Cow Cartel,' hosts Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak dissect a range of political and media developments, arguing that the national narrative is being deliberately reshaped ahead of the midterms. The episode, published June 28, 2026, covers Zohran Mamdani's New York primary sweep, Gavin Newsom's billionaire tax pitch, John Bolton's guilty plea, Keir Starmer's resignation, and an alarming Asian longhorn tick infestation hitting American ranchers.

Curry and Dvorak, broadcasting from the Texas Hill Country and Northern Silicon Valley, deliver their signature media deconstruction with cutting humor. They unpack Mamdani's claim of 165,000 potholes paved and question whether crime statistics are being massaged, similar to controversies in Washington, D.C. Dvorak lays out an extended historical thesis comparing the current moment to 1972, suggesting the CIA is setting up Democratic socialists as patsies for a McGovern-style wipeout. He states, 'This Democrat socialist thing, which is bogus, that election in New York, there was only 10% turnout. It was all immigrants. It was pathetic. The whole thing is a setup.'

The episode delves into specifics often overlooked by mainstream outlets. The hosts examine John Bolton's guilty plea on classified documents and Leon Black's subpoena over Epstein NDAs, as well as Keir Starmer's resignation and the rise of Andy Burnham in the UK Labour Party. They also discuss the collapsing UAP disclosure narrative, with Sean Ryan finally calling it 'bullcrap.'

Curry and Dvorak react to Senator Tim Kaine dismissing Trump's communism remarks as 'goofy word salad,' with Curry pushing back hard. They reference Russ Baker's book Family of Secrets to frame the Nixon parallel, while flagging JD Vance's recent Nixon-era comments. The pair also examine The Daily Wire's 'Muslim Takeover 2027' framing on Morning Wire, Tommy Robinson's Texas church tour with Lara Logan, Rand Paul's renewed push to prosecute Anthony Fauci, and rancher Travis's firsthand account of Asian longhorn ticks decimating his herd in a possible blow to American cattle producers.

With the World Cup, the Freedom 250 Mall celebration, and the midterms looming, the show argues that these events are part of a deliberate reshaping of the national narrative. The episode is available now wherever podcasts are heard.
