Podcast:Breaking Battlegrounds Published On: Fri Jul 31 2026 Description: This week on Breaking Battlegrounds, Sam Stone is joined by B from B's Crime Corner to revisit the COVID-19 restrictions of 2020, Anthony Fauci's influence, vaccine requirements, and the conflicting information Americans were given about who was truly at risk. Then, B's Crime Corner examines the disturbing "Ohio House of Horrors" case, where 16 children were allegedly found living in deplorable conditions. Authorities said some may not have survived another 24 hours. Gary Siders Jr., Gary Siders Sr., Christina Siders, and Elizabeth Siders are accused in connection with the case. Sam Lyman, Head of Research at the Bitcoin Policy Institute, explains why America's Bitcoin, AI, and data-center infrastructure has become a national-security issue. He discusses Chinese influence campaigns targeting U.S. development, misinformation about data-center water use, and the choice between American AI and Chinese AI shaped by censorship.
