Battlefield to Ballot: Kishla Askins Runs for Congress in Nebraska’s Blue Dot

Kishla Askins, Navy veteran and former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Veterans Affairs, joins the show as a candidate for Nebraska’s 2nd Congressional District. She reflects on her combat medical service, bipartisan work on military mental health legislation, and why she calls the “Big Beautiful Bill” a “big ugly bill.” Askins also shares her national security credentials, support for Ukraine, and her plan to unify Nebraskans across party lines.
