Mike Johnson says the polls are all wrong, and he’s bragging about arenas filled with a few hundred people. That’s what panic looks like. Ken Harbaugh explains why the blue wave may be even bigger than the polls suggest – and why Democrats still need to vote like they’re one point behind. Then he talks with JoAnna Mendoza, who served 20 years in the Navy and Marine Corps, including a tour as a drill instructor at Marine Officer Candidate School. She has a real shot at flipping Arizona’s 6th, and would become the first female Marine in Congress.

Seven months ago, Kentucky Republican Ralph Alvarado boasted that he’d stood with Trump in 2016, 2020, and 2024. Now the self-described MAHA doctor has scrubbed the president from his campaign website, part of a GOP stampede away from a toxic president who is still complaining that he isn’t in enough of their TV ads. Ken Harbaugh talks with Zach Dembo, the Navy JAG veteran and former federal prosecutor challenging Alvarado in Kentucky’s 6th District, about why this election is a referendum on Trump and how he plans to win it.

One week out, the midterms come down to one thing: Donald Trump’s corruption, his war with Iran, and his economic incompetence. That message has put races in play no one thought were competitive. Ken Harbaugh sits down with retired three-star admiral Nancy Lacore, the Democrat within striking distance of flipping Nancy Mace’s South Carolina seat, to talk about how she put the race on the map and what it will take to bring it home in the final week.

With less than two weeks until the American Midterm Elections, Retired U.S. Navy Commander Bobby Jones sat down again with Cait Conley, the Democratic nominee in New York's 17th District and one of the tightest House races in the country. She's a West Point graduate, a 16-year Army veteran with three Bronze Stars, and a former NSC counterterrorism director. We talk about the Iran war, oversight of war funding, data centers, and her closing argument to undecided Hudson Valley voters. Early voting starts October 24, and Election Day is November 3.

In a single week, Russia launched more than 2,500 strike drones, 1,500 aerial bombs, and over 50 missiles at Ukraine, killing civilians like a one-year-old in her stroller. Trump and Witkoff responded by praising Russia, with Trump saying it is “doing fine on Ukraine” and Witkoff calling Putin a humanitarian. Ken Harbaugh talks with Army combat vet Kris Goldsmith, founder of Veterans Fighting Fascism and President of VALOR Media Network, about flipping Congress to change course. They also discuss why the Veterans March for Democracy on Veterans Day is about demanding that the administration respect the results of the coming blue wave.

Ken Harbaugh sits down with Senator Elissa Slotkin of Michigan to unpack the coordinated, implicitly violent backlash that followed her remarks on holding lawbreakers in the Trump administration accountable. They discuss what it’s like to be the target of a MAGA and presidential pile-on, and the panic in Trumpworld driving this kind of reactionary behavior.

Trump just pulled the plug on Pete Hegseth's livestreamed execution. That decision tells you a lot about the man running the Pentagon. Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan will still face a firing squad. But Trump has now scrapped Hegseth's plan to stream it, the plan that would have made it America's first public execution in 90 years. "This event will not be streamed," Trump wrote on Truth Social. Retired Navy Commander Bobby Jones explains why the idea should never have left Hegseth's mouth in the first place.

Maj. (Ret.) Richard Ojeda is a combat veteran who deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan.  Now he lives in Aberdeen, and he's the Democratic nominee in North Carolina's 9th District. His opponent is Rep. Richard Hudson, who has held the seat since 2013 and chairs the National Republican Congressional Committee. That makes Hudson the fifth-ranking Republican in the House and one of the most powerful people in Washington when it comes to deciding who gets elected.  Retired U.S. Navy Commander Bobby Jones sat down with him and got past the talking points. Instead, they talked about Fort Bragg and military families, Veterans' care, and affordability.   Learn more about his campaign at ojedafornc.com Subscribe:  @ValorMediaNetwork   Pre-order the new book from MeidasTouch, WTF America?!: The Way Out of This Hell and Back to Democracy, today: https://bit.ly/wtfamericayoutube Visit https://meidasplus.com for more!
