“BRING IT ON”: Denise Powell in the Battle for Nebraska’s 2nd District

ELECTION 2026: In this episode we welcome Denise Powell, a communications strategist and founder of Women Who Run Nebraska, now running for Congress in Nebraska’s 2nd District. Powell discusses her journey from public school advocacy to political leadership, her response to Medicaid cuts and healthcare access, and her call for transparency in the wake of the Epstein files controversy. Powell also shares why she believes government should work for everyday people—not just the wealthy few.

BONUS: In this week’s “Go Fact Yourself” segment, Dan unpacks the renewed controversy over the Epstein files—including former President Trump’s stunning accusation that Barack Obama committed treason.

ANTI-MONOPOLIST running for Congress in Nebraska? | Independent Austin Ahlman

Jun 12, 2026 |

Austin Ahlman, an independent candidate for Nebraska’s 1st Congressional District, joins the show to discuss his late entry into the race against Republican incumbent Mike Flood and Democratic nominee Chris Bachemeyer. Ahlman shares the personal family tragedy that motivated his campaign, explains why he believes independent candidates can break through in Nebraska politics, and outlines his views on monopolies, artificial intelligence, housing, and U.S. foreign policy. We also discuss ballot access, the growing dissatisfaction with the two-party system, and whether a new independent movement is beginning to take shape in Nebraska.
