    Yeah Joe, Hey Alex, let’s hope they keep that ad running and maybe if we’re lucky they’ll put one out with Stephen Miller or J.D. talking about how great those detention centers/concentration camps are.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Even in Idaho, the map is expanding people with Todd Achilles
Q: What is your philosophy once you get to, assuming you get the help you need here, and how do you intend to work?
Achilles says he would judge legislation by the issues rather than party loyalty, drawing on his record of working with Republicans in the Idaho House. He expects independents to have influence in a closely divided Senate and says he wants to collaborate across party lines on issues such as corporate concentration.
Even in Idaho, the map is expanding people with Todd Achilles
Q: Why is it this year that this movement has taken off and why candidates like you have been doing so well?
Achilles says many Americans have left the political parties, while Idaho has a strong independent streak, with roughly 65 percent of residents identifying as independent or leaning independent.
How An Independent Candidate is Good for South Dakota with Brian Bengs
Q: How, you know, what, I think a lot of people struggle with what military action can a president take on his own to do that. And at what point does Congress legally have to authorize that war?
Bengs says a president can respond immediately to an armed attack, but a preemptive act of war should receive congressional approval. He argues Congress should debate and authorize military action, and that its failure to do so undermines public support.
How An Independent Candidate is Good for South Dakota with Brian Bengs
Q: What's driving this?
Bengs says Democrats are not competitive in South Dakota, while voters are more willing to consider an independent candidate and discuss his proposals on campaign finance, public lands and corporate monopolies.
On The Frontline Of Protecting The Vote with Cisco Aguilar
Q: If somebody tries to intimidate a voter or election worker in Nevada, whoever they are, what happens?
Aguilar says Nevada law makes harassment or intimidation of poll workers and election workers a felony. The state can work with local law enforcement, the attorney general or a district attorney to pursue charges.
