This week, we\u2019re bringing back a powerhouse and fan favorite, Shelane Etchison (<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ShelaneEtchison\/\">@ShelaneEtchison<\/a>). She\u2019s running for Congress in North Carolina\u2019s 9th District while pregnant and at the same time dealing with the same devastation the rest of her state is experiencing in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene.<\/p>\n<p>But she\u2019s ready. As a combat veteran that used to jump out of planes into battlefields for a living, she\u2019s ready. And she\u2019s bringing the grit and independent spirit that drives this show and the growing independent movement to the campaign and making history while doing it becoming North Carolina\u2019s first independent candidate to qualify for a federal race. It\u2019s a massive accomplishment and it\u2019s thanks to supporters like you, the real independent Americans.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re interested in independent politics\u2014or American politics in general\u2014this is a can\u2019t miss. If you\u2019re an independent, you\u2019ve found your home. And an inspiring one at that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And your host Paul Rieckhoff (<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PaulRieckhoff\">@PaulRieckhoff<\/a>) goes deep on all of it in this all new episode of <em>Independent Americans<\/em>. From the Presidential race to Jill Stein&#8217;s propensity for lying, he\u2019s hitting it all \u2014 hard. And reflecting on the last year and what the anniversary of 10\/7 means here and in Israel. Plus updates on Mayor Disaster\u2019s growing scandal in NYC, the latest from Ukraine, and the thwarted ISIS election day attack the FBI announced yesterday that seems to have been missed by most (all?) of the mainstream media.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s why every episode of <em>Independent Americans <\/em>is the truth beyond the headlines\u2013and light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows. It\u2019s content for the 49% of Americans that proudly call themselves independent. And delivers the <a href=\"https:\/\/righteous.us\/\">Righteous Media <\/a>5 Is: independence, integrity, information, inspiration and impact.
