Hey folks,
Had an electric conversation with Amanda Litman from Run for Something, and you're going to want to catch every second of it. We dug into the chaos of the week—from the Kimmel controversy to the deeper cracks in our political system—and Amanda did not hold back. This is a must-watch if you're feeling frustrated, fired up, or just need clarity about what the hell is going on.
Here are five moments you can’t miss:
[00:01:07] Amanda shares how she stays grounded while working in the trenches of our democracy, even during "a really shitty two weeks" for the country.
[00:03:33] We unpack Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension, and Amanda explains why silencing comedians is a sign of creeping authoritarianism and outright fascism.
[00:11:12] A candid conversation about Hispanic voters, Kamala Harris, and why disillusionment with Trump doesn’t guarantee a Democratic comeback.
[00:22:04] Amanda breaks down the brutal economic reality for young people—from childcare to home ownership—and why they’re giving up on the American dream.
[00:31:01] Big ideas for revitalizing rural towns, fixing the teacher shortage, and why it’s past time for Democrats to think way bigger.
This conversation is essential if you care about where the Democratic Party goes next. Amanda's clarity, conviction, and courage are the kind of leadership we need more of.
With urgency,
—Mike
