The conversation focuses on I've Had It's Jennifer Welch stops by to talk how Donald Trump is being propped up by AI oligarchs, tech billionaires, and evangelical supporters, with Jennifer Welch arguing that these groups are attracted to him because he is easy to manipulate and unlikely to regulate them. She discusses the economic strain many Americans are already feeling, the way red-state evangelical culture is closely tied to Republican politics, and how authoritarian religious communities can be co-opted by figures like Trump and tech leaders. Jennifer Welch’s book Not Today Fascist, her upbringing around evangelical culture, and why she believes people in deeply red areas may be turning away from Trump not because of Democrats, but because his actions have become so harmful and extreme. Later, the conversation shifts to Adam Hamilton, a pastor and Democratic Senate candidate in Nebraska, who explains how his long history as a pastor, his support for gay marriage, and his community work have helped him connect with voters across the state, and why he ran for office in response to what he sees as immoral and harmful actions by the Trump administration.

Elliot Rodriguez, a first-time congressional candidate and Cuban American with deep roots in Miami journalism, says the Cuban American community is waking up to what he sees as the cruelty of Donald Trump’s immigration policies and the strain of Miami’s affordability crisis, where rising costs, luxury development, and climate-driven flooding are pushing out working- and middle-class families. He also argues that local journalism is under threat, cites the Miami Herald’s legacy and its major investigations, and says his experience as a reporter and anchor taught him how to earn public trust. Throughout the interview, he criticizes Maria Salazar for defending Trump and downplaying detention conditions, says ICE is targeting people who were promised only the “worst of the worst” would be deported, and condemns the diversion of $10 million in Medicaid money to political action committees as a scandal that harmed vulnerable people.
