Description
The Democrats and Republicans are attacking each other on a daily basis. The presidential race is at a fever pitch. And 82% of all new voter registrations are independents. And as both sides try to court the undecideds and pander to their bases, we’ve been busy introducing you to America’s next generation of leaders. Independent leaders that stand on their own, in service of their communities.
America, meet Travis Endicott, independent veteran candidate for Mayor of Ridgecrest, California. Travis is a brilliant Army vet with multiple degrees, a PhD and two Masters. He works at a top secret lab in the kind of job you can’t really talk about. But the stuff he works on gets confused for alien spaceships—and we think that sounds really, really cool.
But he also is a man that cares. And when he heard about a new surveillance system the local police was deploying in his town, he decided to stand up and do something about it. And run for Mayor. It’s the kind of drive we love to see and the kind of candidate we love to stand behind.
And this episode is packed with all of the latest headlines. Your host Paul Rieckhoff breaks down all of the latest news from Ukraine, the Iranian attacks on Israel, the VP debate, Trump’s asinine comments about wounded troops, NYC Mayor Eric Adams and more. The weather might be cooling down, but the world is heating up. And while the cable stations are busy fighting over what happened, we’re focused on what’s next.
