How confident are we in our election integrity? Do we believe that our votes are counted fairly - and that the people we're electing to office are truly there to represent us? And between the political lobbying, allocated tax dollars, social media shadowbanning, and widespread fears of national voter fraud, how does anybody maintain any real confidence in the system? One thing's for sure - with a big country comes big problems, and big solutions aren't always easy to come by.
That's why Mike's sitting down with two friends of the show - Clint Emerson, ret. SEAL Team 6 and the author of '100 Deadly Skills', and Clark Impastato, ret. SEAL Team 5 and a former Phoenix Police Officer - to talk about the state of the union, U.S. election integrity, potential long-term solutions, and how things may end up going after November 5th, 2024.
