Hey folks,
Just wrapped an incredible conversation with Pennsylvania’s Lieutenant Governor Austin Davis, and trust me—this one’s essential. We dug into everything from Trump’s gerrymandering playbook to what it really means to govern with purpose in 2025. If you care about the future of Democratic leadership (or just want to feel something other than despair), this is a must-watch.
– 02:07 — Austin Davis lays out the gerrymandering crisis in Texas and the courageous Democratic response
– 07:14 — A no-BS take on what it means to “fight fire with fire” in blue states—and whether we should
– 12:01 — How Pennsylvania is delivering real wins: safer streets, more jobs, and record investments in education
– 21:02 — Why “you can’t gaslight people into thinking the economy is strong”—and how we should talk about it instead
– 25:50 — A call to action that hits hard: why the next generation of leadership starts with us
If you’re ready for government that doesn’t just talk about values but actually lives them—if you want to be part of a politics that’s more about power for the people than power for the powerful—then I hope you’ll become a paid subscriber. We’re building something here. Don’t miss it.
With urgency,
—Mike
