This week, Briahna speaks to India Walton, winner of last year’s Democratic primary in Buffalo New York who was railroaded by a write in campaign by the establishment incumbent. She's part of a campaign to stop Biden from running for president in 2024. Briahna asked her about that movement, who she'd like to see in office instead of Biden, and why she's still invested in electoralism.

I mean I get what she's saying about electoralism but I don't think she understands how to use it. It's in my nature to fight every fight worth having. Death only renders hope absent, and I go into every fight thinking I can win. That doesn't mean I have delusions about the chances, but you lose 100 percent of the battles you don't participate in. I hate to use this analogy because nothing we are fighting for is anywhere near this remote but it's like the lottery. You don't even get to think about what you'd do with the money if you don't fork over the 2 bucks for that ticket, because there's zero chance you'll win if you don't play. The trouble is when progressives get into office loss aversion psychology kicks in and they lose that sense of fights worth having. They think they have to "build power" to make a difference. Ralph Nader was on this very show saying he's got a whole list of things freshman congresspeople can do right out the starting gate, but nobody is even taking his calls. India's and Nina's deflation and hedging is not an encouraging sign for the future. I'm still open to the possibility that the right people with the right strategy can get in past the guard at least for a single term, but they need to be prepared for the establishment antibody response and not get too attached to the position if they're going to use electoralism as a tool. And it looks like India isn't the one, sadly.

If we could just get "half a bowl of shit" nina back and clone a dozen of her we'd be in business.

As a LATINA, I wouldn’t touch this woman with a 10 ft pole. I can guarantee she hardly spoke to any Latinos in her district. Keep deluding yourself with your virtue signaling, India. You have DEMOCRAT OPERATIVE written on your forehead.

The only thing I find comfort in is this comment section- if nothing else, im grateful that all of y’all see the same tired Bullshit I see. That feels like a rough but powerful starting point. Fuck this mealy mouth weakness- pathetic.

"I don't have the luxury of being disconnected." Perhaps Ms. Walton was being sincere. But I don't have the luxury of being disconnected either.... However, I will not standby and be both disconnected and disrespected. These so-called Socialists, that were fearful of labels and being excommunicated from "polite, political society".... These were the same Socialists that executed Rosa Luxemburg in the streets of Germany, and thus doomed the Revolution that everyone has was hoping Germany would achieve. These "Socialists" who murdered Luxemburg were the same "Socialists" that fought against the Communists and then welcomed Hitler into power because the Commies gave them such a fright. The Western Left has always been more terrified of Communism than they have ever been of Fascism. It's disgusting to continue to pander to those that would eventually see you dead.

Did Brie do a Call-in last night? I thought I got a notification yday, but this morning there is no recorded episode. I was really looking forward to it! Just watched Brie on TYT with Cenk. Our girl was as cool as a cucumber - seriously on point. Cenk was an angry Jimmy-obsessed mess. It was like watching a babysitter trying to calmly explain to a Terrible Twos toddler how screaming and throwing their poop is not how you learn your ABCs.

Great interview. India is cool. And thank you Briahna for being so level-headed and good faith in everything you do.

This is so disappointing. I liked India Walton. All I hear is “vote blue and hope they’ll pass our policies; in the meantime, do performative identity politics”

“Latinx” and “birthing people” isn’t going to win over anyone that isn’t already on your side. It is, however, going to alienate normies who don’t know or like those terms.

Jayapal can't run for President. She's a naturalized citizen and isn't eligible. Just as well

Stop using Latinx. The vast majority of Latinos don't identify as that. It's alienating. It's not even a Spanish word!

India seems very well intentioned but got damn her perspective seems different
