Here’s the rundown for tonight. A listener from Texas texted” I usually dread election cycles but I’m really looking forward to it this time around with Sean, Sam, and Matt. I love your open minded example of listening to different ideas and perspectives. As a mom to 5 young adults all over the political spectrum, I feel like you are modeling a good pattern for how to navigate diverse ideas and respect.”
Along those lines, another asked, “Given that Donald Trump is a demented narcissist and Kamala is not a white man a lot of listeners may be looking for a write-in candidate this November. Would you each please lay out your Presidential platform for us? What would be your priorities as President?” Would any of us be a good write-in candidate?

Now republican senator hawley is pushing for votes on the pelosi act which would go even further and would prohibit members of Congress and their spouses from holding or trading individual stocks and force them to divest from private business.

ABC News did an in depth report about corruption in congress and the rising trend of internet groups like the autopilot app, tracking and exposing the stock trades of Nancy Pelosi and other lawmakers then becoming very wealthy themselves by mimicking their investments. 1. Was Obama's stock act good? 2. Is the Pelosi act good?
Next up, Matt. Venezuela’s leader is refusing to give up power and life is so bad for many Venezuelans that they’re leaving the country. President Maduro’s crack down on the opposition will likely make even more people leave the country leading to another wave of migration. Should the US intervene militarily to force Maduro our of power in Venezuela?
Finally, Sam. The White Horse Prophecy
