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.
