This week we're breaking down how extreme the attacks on voting rights and election interference have gotten, and the case studies that prove it's not slowing down.

Host Angela Rye sits down with students from North Carolina A&T, the nation's largest HBCU, who are leading the fight to restore on-campus early voting after Guilford County and the NC State Election Board pulled the site ahead of the 2026 General Election. 

Board Member Prentiss Haney from the Ohio Organizing Collaborative joins us to talk about the organization's recent FBI raid and what it signals about the targeting of organizers on the ground.

Plus, Liban Mohamed, who is running for Congress in Utah, breaks down how the state is trying to build a case against him for violating Utah code 20A-3a-208 for assisting someone at the polls, despite him not being anywhere near the voting polls on voting day.
