The Dark Horse Candidate in the AL-2 Runoff, Caroleene Dobson

Another congressional royal rumble is taking place due to the absurd redistricting last year. This time it's in the 2nd Congressional District of Alabama. Caroleene Dobson is the definition of a dark horse candidate, she has gone from unknown to prominence by traveling the state, speaking, and doing media hits. What everyone is noticing is that she is incredibly intelligent, has a deep grasp of every political problem facing our country, and, most importantly, has solutions.
Most politicians and candidates speak in sound bites they hope pander to polling data, but that's not Caroleene. She engages in a 45 min conversation with Bryan and pulls no punches.
The AL-2 runoff should be an exciting race.

The History of the School Choice Movement with Corey DeAngelis

Despite having a Republican governor and Republican supermajority in the
Alabama House and Senate for over a decade, there had been no movement on school choice and education freedom.
 
In fact, Gov Ivey had been diametrically opposed to it, as has state House and Senate leadership, despite parental rights and education freedom being part of the ALGOP Party Platform.
 
That all changed this year.
 
Bryan brings on School Choice evangelist, Corey DeAngelis, to talk about the history of the school choice movement and why there has been such a shift across the nation with 13 states adopting Education Savings Accounts since COVID.
 
They analyze the CHOOSE Act that the state House passed and compare it to other states. (Update: The Alabama Senate also passed the CHOOSE Act and Governor Ivey signed it into law shortly after this recording.)
 
Corey also discusses the "bloodbath" on Super Tuesday in Texas for anti-school choice, NEA-sponsored, Republican-incumbent legislators his organization targeted.
