Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar · 2/26/26: Trump Humiliates MAHA RFK Jr, Hakeem Caught Funneling AIPAC Money, AI Midterm Wars Breakout · 26 Feb 2026 podcast

And that was one of our first questions when we were looking at NIDA back in June and July of 2025 was how do we time this so that nobody else gets in the race so that we don't have another situation where the field is fractured and then it's way harder to have a pathway to victory.

So it's just NIDA.

And on top of that,

are the college students actually going to be there?

Because we've seen districts where, you know, in the past I've seen polling where a candidate looks like they're going to win because we account for a lot of college students turning out and then it turns out, oh, they're on spring break.

Or, oh, you know, it's summer break.

And then they don't turn out and then the candidate loses.

In this case, we looked at the polling, we looked at the redistricting, and we saw a huge opportunity to show that

and send a shockwave through the electoral system that if NIDA wins here, I think will really send a chill down the spine of a lot of people in the establishment who historically have relied on corporations, relied on AIPAC, and thought that they were safe because of that.

And ironically, the thing that used to keep them the most safe is now the thing that makes them most vulnerable.

We at Leaders We Deserve, our friends over at Justice Democrats, the Sunrise Movement, and other groups, and obviously you all too, are working to make the biggest asset these groups have, which is their money, their biggest liability.

That gets harder with the shell packs, obviously.

But what I don't think people like Hakeem Jeffries or Chuck Schumer realize is that Gen Z and millennials are increasingly – we're almost a majority of the electorate at this point.

I don't think they understand how much we vehemently hate politicians that take corporate money and appear to engage in insider trading.

As a generation, we feel like the entire system has been bought and sold out from underneath us.

And when these politicians take corporate money, I think for a lot of them, like Valerie Foushee, they're like, what?

They're in my district.

It's totally fine.

They don't understand what that tells voters, which is that you are effectively being bribed by these corporations.

You should talk about the article, one thing.
