On this episode of He’s Not Wrong, I’m joined by Alabama influencer and progressive advocate Ashtyn Kennedy. Ashtyn has been outspoken about Alabama Power and what she sees as deep-rooted corruption, and it was time to bring her on to share her perspective and walk through where things stand after a month of aggressive movement by the utility company in the state legislature.

We break down what’s changed, what hasn’t, and what it means for everyday Alabamians watching their bills climb while decisions get made behind closed doors. If there’s one thing this moment has proven, it’s that organized, informed people can shift the conversation. The power doesn’t belong to corporations, it belongs to the people.

This week on He’s Not Wrong, I sit down with Amanda Marie Green, a North Florida congressional candidate (district 2) whose life’s work at USAID was dismantled under the Trump administration. Before she ever decided to run for office, Amanda spent a decade working inside the system, negotiating government contracts, protecting taxpayer dollars, supporting HIV/AIDS and malaria programs, building famine monitoring systems, and helping deliver cybersecurity support to Ukraine after the Russian invasion. She saw firsthand how the government is supposed to function and what happens when it’s intentionally torn apart.

We talk about what USAID actually does, the misconceptions MAGA has weaponized, and what it was like to watch her work, and critical global programs, cut in the name of “efficiency.” We also dig into what those cuts mean here at home, especially in a district where nearly a quarter of residents rely on SNAP benefits, and how national security, public health, and economic stability are all connected.

Amanda lays out a solution-driven vision for North Florida and she is focused on protecting reproductive freedom, safeguarding democracy, investing responsibly, and delivering real results for working families in a young, fast-growing district. After talking to so many candidates this year, one thing is clear: people don’t want chaos, they want solutions. And Amanda is running to provide just that.

This week on He’s Not Wrong, I’m joined by Elizabeth Dempsey Beggs, Army veteran, former Tank Commander, foster parent, and candidate for Congress in Virginia’s First District. We talk about why people-powered campaigns matter in a moment when so many Americans feel powerless, and why she is refusing corporate PAC money. Elizabeth shares what it meant to take an oath to the Constitution at 17 and why that oath isn’t partisan or situational. We discuss rebuilding trust in government, investing in childcare as economic policy, and what progressive leadership looks like in practice. We also get into the broader question of accountability in a system that often protects itself.
