Closing Thoughts and Call to Action

Lindsey Graham has spent decades mastering one political skill above all others: survival. In this conversation, part of the Save America Movement ”Fighting Democrats” series, Steve Schmidt sits down with Dr. Annie Andrews — a paediatrician, mother, and Democratic candidate for the United States Senate — to discuss why she believes that era can finally come to an end. We explore Graham’s political evolution, the exhaustion many South Carolinians feel with performative politics, and why this race is shaping up to be one of the most consequential Senate contests of 2026.

If you’re interested in understanding where the fight for the Senate will be won or lost — and in meeting one of the candidates seeking to reshape that battlefield — you won’t want to miss this discussion. It’s a thoughtful, substantive conversation about leadership, accountability, and why South Carolina may be one of the most important political stories in America over the next 16 months.

There is a very significant, “exhausted majority” of Americans looking to move past this rotten moment in American life. They have lost trust and faith in government, business, media and not-for-profit institutions at a moment of technological, cultural and economic upheaval. Fascism did not rise in the 1930s because it was strong, but rather, because democracy was weak. The cycle is repeating itself with a new extremism rising in 2020s America. On the podcast – consistent with the mission of The Warning newsletter offered on Substack and The Warning YouTube channel – I will be joined by interesting guests – some familiar, and some you may never have heard of – to discuss the political and cultural currents that are shaping our times, as well as the unseen forces driving politics that are rarely discussed on cable news. It's important for you to hear from a diverse range of voices – not just me – about the issues facing America today.
