The presidential race is at a fever pitch. And 82% of all new voter registrations are independents. And as both sides try to court the undecideds and pander to their bases, we\u2019ve been busy introducing you to America\u2019s next generation of leaders. Independent leaders that stand on their own, in service of their communities.<\/p>\n<p>America, meet Travis Endicott, independent veteran candidate for Mayor of Ridgecrest, California. Travis is a brilliant Army vet with multiple degrees, a PhD and two Masters. He works at a top secret lab in the kind of job you can\u2019t really talk about. But the stuff he works on gets confused for alien spaceships\u2014and we think that sounds really, really cool.<\/p>\n<p>But he also is a man that cares. And when he heard about a new surveillance system the local police was deploying in his town, he decided to stand up and do something about it. And run for Mayor. It\u2019s the kind of drive we love to see and the kind of candidate we love to stand behind.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And this episode is packed with all of the latest headlines. Your host Paul Rieckhoff breaks down all of the latest news from Ukraine, the Iranian attacks on Israel, the VP debate, Trump\u2019s asinine comments about wounded troops, NYC Mayor Eric Adams and more. The weather might be cooling down, but the world is heating up. And while the cable stations are busy fighting over what happened, we\u2019re focused on what\u2019s next.<\/p>\n<p>Every episode of <em>Independent Americans<\/em> is independent light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It\u2019s content for the 51% of Americans that now call themselves independent. Always with a unique focus on national security, foreign affairs and military and vets issues.
