Hey folks,
Aftyn Behn is less than a week out from what could be one of the biggest political upsets of the year—and she’s doing it in a deep red district (TN-07) by running straight at the issues people care about. You’ll want to hear this interview before you unplug for the holiday break.
[00:00:49] Aftyn breaks down why a Republican stronghold is suddenly in play—and what that says about the moment we’re in.
[00:02:08] The story of a Republican voter comparing her to Trump… and why that authenticity is resonating across party lines.
[00:03:04] From Medicaid rallies to the statehouse: how years of grassroots organizing led to this campaign.
[00:07:03] What she’s hearing on the ground—from veterans, working moms, and disillusioned voters—in the final days of the race.
[00:11:02] Aftyn on feeding kids, fixing roads, and the radical idea that government should actually help people.
With urgency,
—Mike
P.S. Happy Thanksgiving! I appreciate every single one of you.
