This episode of News Radio 840 WHAS is a must-listen for anyone concerned about the state of American democracy. The host dives into a shocking story of election tampering in Alaska, where Democrats attempted to confuse voters by placing a candidate with the same name as the Republican incumbent on the ballot. But that's not all - the host also tackles a proposed housing program in Lexington, Kentucky, that sounds great on the surface but could lead to a housing crisis.

The host shares a personal anecdote about his own experience with a shared equity loan, which sounds similar to the proposed program. He explains how it can lead to homeowners being stuck with a mortgage they can't afford, especially if the housing market crashes. He also discusses the importance of being aware of the character of the people we're voting for, citing examples of Democrats who have shown a willingness to cheat and lie to achieve power.

The host also touches on the topic of socialism and how it's becoming increasingly popular among young people due to the lack of opportunities and the burden of student loans and AI. He argues that we need to be aware of the consequences of our actions and the character of the people we're voting for.

If you're concerned about the future of America and the integrity of our elections, tune in to this episode to hear the host's thoughts on these important topics. He'll also be discussing a potential solution to the homelessness problem in the next hour, so be sure to stick around.
