Episode 52: Architects of Catastrophe: Noem, Miller & Patel
Send us a text Behind every raid and detention center are decision makers who built the system to look this way. In this episode, Bella Goode exposes the architects of ICE’s enforcement machine: Kristi Noem, Stephen Miller, Kash Patel, and Ron DeSantis. From prisons turned into propaganda stages to tax data weaponized for surveillance, their designs fuse spectacle with control. What emerges is a deliberate blueprint of cruelty—calculated to spread fear, normalize repression, and erode the boundaries of law and democracy. Key Takeaways To Listen For Kristi Noem as the “architect of spectacle,” turning raids and detention centers into staged propagandaStephen Miller’s doctrine of scale: quotas, deputization of local police, and economic bans engineered to divide communitiesKash Patel’s narrative machine, blending FBI power with propaganda reels, podcasts, and surveillance expansionRon DeSantis as the state-level executor, rebranding prisons and piloting new forms of enforcement for national rolloutHow predictive policing, IRS data sharing, and continuous vetting make surveillance permanent and preemptiveWhy legal safeguards are breaking down, leaving power unchecked and communities destabilized Join the Community Subscribe to Surviving Trump on Substack to keep me churning. bellagoodepodcast.substack.com Know someone who thinks Project 2025 won’t affect them?

A Republican turned democracy advocate in 2016, I was raised by middle class parents in Pennsylvania. I’m a former marketing executive, entrepreneur, and lifelong learner with an MBA from Wharton and a Master’s in Psychology from Penn. I spent decades telling stories in the business world; now I use those skills to connect the dots in American politics. I’m here because the truth matters — and because the stakes have never been higher. Surviving Trump isn’t lighthearted. It’s clarity, evidence, and a fight for the future of our democracy.
