He has a Master’s degree from the US Naval War College and serves on the Board of Visitors of the US Naval Academy. He is the author of The Briefing and Radical Nation.

Today, Sean joins me to talk about his experience, his thoughts, and his books. He talks about his experience on Dancing with the Stars, sharing how his campaigning skills helped him. He talks about the importance of firsthand experience and shares why he doesn’t want to run for office. He discusses what it’s like to work in politics and offers his solution for the voting rights controversy in DC, explaining why, despite his plan’s logic, democrats don’t want to accept it. He discusses his book, notes the importance of digging for facts instead of paying attention to hearsay, and emphasizes the need to defend your beliefs boldly but respectfully.

“The left wins when the right is silent.”

Women on the right need a safe space to discuss politics, policy, news, and ownership over the fact that it is ok to agree to disagree. It is our First Amendment right to free speech. Before we can even out the number of women in our local, state, & federal governments, we need to empower women to feel comfortable and confident discussing these and other topics.

My name is Jennifer. I’m a single mom of three girls living in Boston. I’m a lawyer with two political science degrees, and I have no problem talking politics with people who disagree with me.

I spent three years as the Chairman of the Massachusetts GOP and ran for the very liberal Boston City Council. I’m a frequent analyst on Newsmax, Fox News Radio, and Boston Media. As a Republican in a blue state, I know a few things about how to disagree agreeably.

Join me for fascinating conversations that engage and clarify every week. For more information and resources, visit Political Contessa.
