Biden\u2019s campaign continues to disintegrate\u2014and so does international confidence in US leadership and American morale. The most important, most violent and most divisive election of our lifetime rolls on. And we\u2019re all starved for leadership and inspiration.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Paul Rieckhoff breaks down this moment, and the most important and latest news, including the evolution of American support for Ukraine, what real American toughness looks like, and what\u2019s coming next.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And, he tears into all of it with a powerful and inspiring conversation with the smart, impressive and dynamic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jakewood.co\/\">Jake Wood<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JakeWoodTR\">@JakeWoodTR<\/a>). Jake\u2019s a social entrepreneur, Marine Corps combat veteran, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jakewood.co\/\">author<\/a> and CEO of Groundswell, an innovative new company that democratizes corporate philanthropy and empowers employees to take action. He\u2019s also the co-founder of the disaster relief powerhouse non-profit Team Rubicon. And, he\u2019s a former sniper and he breaks down the assassination attempt and the catastrophic chain of events that allowed it to happen.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s giving you a sniper\u2019s eye view into the Trump shooting, the latest from the campaign trail, the national competition between profit and values, and what\u2019s to come this summer and fall environmentally that will require more disaster relief than any time before.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Every episode of <em>Independent Americans<\/em> is independent light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows.
