Hey y'all! 👋🏽 This year is a midterm election year and another opportunity to push back against the fascist agenda. We jump back to October 2024 and what it was like on the road talking to voters to stop Trump's 2nd term. Bear and I are going back out on the road to reflect on how we got to Trump's America in 2026 and how the roots of our history are holding us back. Watch today's preview on PeerTube.

"This is my muddy boy, Bear. He is a full pembroke welsh corgi and my travel buddy."
