In this episode of He's Not Wrong, I sit down with Dr Candice Duvieilh, a Democratic candidate running to represent Alabama’s 5th Congressional District. Our conversation explores the personal, political, and strategic foundations of her campaign, beginning with the social media connection that first brought us together and a shared moment at a Kamala Harris event in Birmingham. Candice talks about what drove her to run, how her background in public administration shapes her approach, and why she refuses to engage in intra-party attacks even as she draws sharp contrasts between Democratic priorities and the challenges facing Alabama.

We dig into the district’s most pressing issues, from the pressures of rapid population growth in Huntsville to inadequate infrastructure planning, strained public services, and the fallout of NASA funding cuts. Candice outlines her vision for sustainable development, improved public transportation, and revitalized rural communities, as well as her commitment to listening directly to the people most affected by these challenges.

The episode also takes a deep dive into healthcare, with Candice walking through her detailed plan to cap medical costs, strengthen the Affordable Care Act, and ultimately build toward universal government-backed coverage. She explains why this approach is both financially feasible and urgently needed for families across Alabama. I highlight how these policy proposals address long-standing voter concerns that too often go unacknowledged by statewide candidates.

We also go into her grassroots-first campaign strategy: replacing traditional political networking with community organizing, direct engagement, and social media outreach designed to activate voters who feel overlooked. Finally, we discuss the Alabama Department of Corrections, the need for federal attention, and how systemic failures within the state continue to harm the most vulnerable residents.

This conversation is a clear window into what’s at stake for Alabama’s 5th District and why candidates like Candice are reshaping what political leadership can look like in the Deep South.

In this episode, I sit down with Saikat Chakrabarti, the architect behind Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s 2018 upset and now a 2026 congressional candidate challenging Nancy Pelosi, for a conversation about the future of the Democratic Party, economic transformation, and the urgent fight to restore trust in American democracy.

Saikat opens up about his decision to run against Pelosi, describing it as a generational call for change in a party that has grown too comfortable managing decline rather than delivering progress. He outlines his campaign platform centered on universal healthcare, ending political corruption, and rebalancing the economy through a wealth tax and investment in public infrastructure. Drawing inspiration from FDR’s New Deal, Saikat’s “Mission for America” proposes a national plan to rebuild housing, transit, and energy systems through coordinated public and private partnerships.

We also dive into the structural barriers facing progressives, from corporate influence and establishment resistance to ineffective party leadership under figures like Hakeem Jeffries. Saikat and I discuss how Democrats have lost working-class trust and what it will take to regain it through clarity, courage, and grassroots organization. The conversation underscores a growing frustration with incrementalism and a demand for bold, measurable change that voters can feel in their daily lives.

We close with a reflection on the importance of building lasting movements, the lessons he learned from working with Bernie Sanders and AOC, and the hope that a new generation of progressives will step up to build a government capable of delivering for everyone, not just the wealthy few.

In this episode, I sit down with Nathan Taylor from the Election Truth Alliance to discuss his organization’s analysis of 2024 election data revealing troubling patterns in several swing states. Nathan breaks down findings that suggest possible vote manipulation in machine-counted precincts, especially where optical scanners with cellular modems were used. We dive into the statistical relationship between voter turnout and Trump’s vote share in key Florida counties, raising serious questions about how machine vulnerabilities could have influenced election outcomes.

Nathan also shares findings from on-the-ground investigations in Florida that uncovered voter registration discrepancies, ballots cast by non-residents, and precincts reporting over 100% turnout. He explains how these discoveries highlight systemic weaknesses in election technology and oversight, and why state governments must act before the upcoming midterms.
