Episode Texas Republicans Aren't Ready For This Latino Deputy Sheriff Running For Congress As A Democrat Cover

Beschreibung

Given the latest news regarding gerrymandering and Republicans in the South doing everything they can to eliminate black districts, we're very pleased to have congressional candidate, Johnny Garcia (D-TX) on today's show. He wants to prove that gerrymandering won't be enough for the GOP to prevent a Blue Wave in the 2026 midterm elections. Garcia is a Deputy Sheriff running in the newly redrawn 35th district. Governor Greg Abbott (R-TX) ordered the Texas GOP state legislature to redraw the maps to provide the GOP with five additional congressional seats because Trump requested it. However, the big issue is that these new districts were redrawn based on the 2024 Presidential Election results where Trump gained support among Latino male voters. After experiencing two years of fascism, tariffs and ICE terrorizing Latino communities, Garcia argues that many Latino male voters in his district have overwhelming voter regret. Garcia makes the case that the Democratic Party must fight for old school Democratic values that Latino communities care about if they want to flip this district. Garcia outlines his platform to tackle affordability by preventing Trump from enforcing more illegal tariffs and strengthening the Affordable Care Act.

Episode Stopping A.I. From Destroying America with Congresswoman Sara Jacobs Cover

Stopping A.I. From Destroying America with Congresswoman Sara Jacobs

A.I. already plays a role in so many aspects of our lives and lately, the negatives of A.I. have far outweighed the positives. Just ask a recent college graduate who's applied to hundreds of jobs and hasn't received a single response. While more companies have been using A.I. to scan resumes, the big issue is we don't know if these A.I. systems are breaking fair employment laws or showing any bias when fielding candidates. On this episode of the Find Out Podcast, Congresswoman Sara Jacobs (D-CA), returns to talk about how her A.I. regulation bill, which has bipartisan support in Congress, would give the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission additional tools to prevent A.I. systems from breaking the law. Our conversation with Congresswoman Jacobs doesn't just touch upon on A.I. guardrails. It's Congress's inability to fully understand the impact A.I. is having on the American electorate and how to keep up with and respond to this technology as it changes rapidly. While states like California have done a better job at regulating A.I., President Donald Trump has also been doing the bidding of the A.I. industry to override states' ability to take action. We also have a misguided fixation on trying to out-China China in the A.I. arms race. Congresswoman Jacobs argues that when Democrats retake the House in 2026 midterms, they will have a significant opportunity to future proof the government and push through A.I. protections that have a real impact.  We also take the time to discuss FISA reforms and enjoy seeing clowns like Nancy Mace and Spencer Pratt lose their primaries.  Download the Find Out Social App: App Store: https://apple.co/48Jan4F [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbnFRQWN0T2EyRGlCWkFhRnI5cVBvVDFQM0RqQXxBQ3Jtc0ttMU9vLUVoRzZfbWcweXV4bnl2NmJDQUZiV1p1UTFKbXRMUUMtc0dRb1VrN2kxXzUzaXhtMHpNczJjZktTbHVJalI3bmk5alI2WFQ1ZFhRZ044ek1nTFRleWNnaVZHUnFTUEFDYmhwT2tHY3FWdVBIZw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fapple.co%2F48Jan4F&v=UMhCjVsC4oA] Google Play Store: https://bit.ly/FOSocialGooglePlay [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqazBSMDRma0k4bTRFSk5wZFp5YVZVbmJJb3VuUXxBQ3Jtc0tsOVRtQUZQSE9jTDRxNk9OQVJuY0RkZExTNFJ5UXZwS29vcDVVblFOMTd1MjhGc05ZUkI1cGVSWVpDZlo0UmxOZzV0ZE52WjJzZEo0SzJXeEFXdkRBQ2pBdUl4MHpWOTRjQ2VDQTNLd08zZkxlVHAxTQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2FFOSocialGooglePlay&v=UMhCjVsC4oA] 👕 *Merch* made in the USA & union-made: https://findoutpodcast.com [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa2c1OURhTThSaFRZNWg0UG03RzdUREtWVmF4UXxBQ3Jtc0ttVmljWmZUQ1A1akFjOGZxWmZ0NDVaMjQ1ZXgwYzdTYUJpaENHNEJBUWZTbm9IZ3RTM2dkTU9yaU5Sd1NFYVRxMi1TT1drM0lEQjNwbHZpemthSjJzNkpTOXRQVmR2SWZkR1BZWmpTcVhkVnRod2J0bw&q=https%3A%2F%2Ffindoutpodcast.com%2F&v=UMhCjVsC4oA] 📬 Subscribe to bonus content: https://findoutpodcast.substack.com [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbmJwS01rNThEbEdMY3dZb213ZHRHZXNmWUNBUXxBQ3Jtc0tra09maVpPNFZrT25xandUcU5ObFAySFY2UV9fdmxWY3M1LXlBbXpJUU9Lc1FKTHJVNEptYkJ1WFA3RDY4RHdGT1B0RGpqNDFZUXlkeUIwNXZxNk01TFBxcG5DTG9jVzQ4SW1QdjlSTmROdktHXzh0NA&q=https%3A%2F%2Ffindoutpodcast.substack.com%2F&v=UMhCjVsC4oA] 📱 Follow us everywhere: @FindOutPodcast 📣 Share this episode & tag us #FindOutPodcast [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/findoutpodcast] 📥 Send us feedback and tips: hello@findoutpodcast.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Episode Trump Had A Huge Meltdown On Meet The Press & It Was So Good! Cover

Trump Had A Huge Meltdown On Meet The Press & It Was So Good!

If you haven't watched Trump's latest meltdown on Meet The Press, you should check it out because it's both painful to watch yet so enjoyable to watch this orange man baby crack under tough questioning from Kristen Welker. Trump reported by rehashing his lies about voter fraud, which he used in 2020 when discussing the results of California's election. It's important to remember that Trump is freaking out because his endorsed candidate for governor, Steve Hilton, might not make it into the top two spots in California's jungle primary once all of the votes are counted. This explains the rehashing of the Big Lie about massive voter fraud, especially heading into the 2026 midterm elections. It truly was a massive trainwreck for Trump.  Speaking of the 2026 midterm elections, we discuss whether we're still backing Graham Platner's U.S. Senate candidacy in Maine after a whole week's worth of controversial allegations. And while we're on the topic of trainwrecks, we'll also talk about Bari Weiss and Nick Bilton doing Larry and David Ellison's bidding to kill off all of CBS News' crediibility while turning it into a MAGA propaganda machine.

Episode Young Male Viewers Aren't Anti-Democrat, They're Anti-Failure Cover

Young Male Viewers Aren't Anti-Democrat, They're Anti-Failure

Since President Obama won the presidency in 2008, Democrats have long believed that younger voters would automatically vote Democratic because of the Republican Party's extreme positions on social issues. But the 2024 election disproved that when Donald Trump made significant gains with male Gen Z voters proving that the Democrats have a young male problem. While the same Gen Z male voters who voted for Trump have soured on him in large numbers, this doesn't mean they will automatically swing back to the Democrats in the 2026 midterms; however, they remain a winnable voting block. On this episode of the Find Out Podcast, we're joined by Arianna Jones, executive director of NextGen America, to provide insight into what Gen Z voters, especially male Gen Z voters, view on the state of the two party system. Jones confirms many of our theories about why 44% of Gen Z voters are unaffiliated and the type of political leaders they want in charge. We also gain a better understanding of how Gen Z realizes the real threat of fascism under Trump's second term and the growing anxiety surrounding AI under the control of billionaires like Elon Musk. There's a lot to dive into in this episode but one thing is clear: Democrats cannot take Gen Z voters for granted. Especially since they will make up more than 50 million eligible voters in time for the 2028 election.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Episode We like to win Cover

We like to win

We here on the Find Out Podcast are a big fans of Democrats winning elections and we couldn't be happier with this week's news that Attorney General Ken Paxton (R-TX), who was endorsed by Trump, won his runoff election, unseating the incumbent U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) as the Republican nominee. Why are we excited about this? Because Paxton, who has been impeached by the Republican Super Majority in the Texas state legislature for embezzlement, busted for an extramarital affair and is generally hated by Cornyn voters and his fellow Texas Republicans, this creates an excellent opportunity for State Rep. James Talarico (D-TX) to finally flip Texas Blue. The last time Texas Democrats came close to flipping this seat was in 2018 when U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) narrowly defeated Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D-TX) by 2.6%. On this episode, we'll make the case for why someone like Paxton is worse than Cruz. Talarico's ability to communicate effectively with religious Christian voters, coupled with Hispanic and Latino voters turning on Trump in large numbers, makes this a must watch race that could help the Democrats win the U.S. Senate this year.  We'll also discuss why conviction is the best weapon for Democrats to counter Republican messaging when pitching massive changes like universal health care. We also enjoyed watching Chelsea Handler and Pete Davidson destroy Tony Hinchcliffe at the Netflix Roast of Kevin Hart. We also crack down on corporations using investments in AI data centers to justify mass layoffs but those investments haven't been paying off. Also, we'll highlight how the tech billionaires like Marc Andreessen, Peter Thiel and Elon Musk want cheaper workers while J.D. Vance and Stephen Miller want more white workers.
