Hey folks,

I went live this morning with my friend Simon Rosenberg from Hopium Chronicles, and we got personal, political, and real about what this moment means. Pelosi’s retirement. A generational handoff. And a not-so-subtle “blue tsunami” sweeping across the country.

• [00:01:07] Simon on Pelosi’s legacy—first female Speaker, and why her orderly handoff to Hakeem Jeffries is the model for generational change.

• [00:05:22] Abigail Spanberger, Mikie Sherrill, Maine, Pennsylvania, California—why those results matter and what they reveal about Trump’s collapsing agenda.

• [00:10:15] Youth and Hispanic voters snapping back toward Democrats—and how that reshapes the map in TX, AZ, NV, GA, and NC.

• [00:15:40] Governing from strength: tariffs, ACA subsidies, ICE funding—why Schumer and Jeffries need to press the advantage and make the harms of Trump’s agenda the center of the fight.

• [00:20:55] Strength vs. weakness: voters need to see us fight. No complacency, no cave-ins—just discipline, wins, and momentum through 2026.

If this conversation speaks to you, become a paid subscriber. It’s $8/month and it helps us keep building something that breaks through the noise — a studio built for impact, not vibes — so we can keep having real talks about strength, leadership, and the future we’re building together.

With urgency,

—Mike
