Episode 2: What Had Happened Was...

In January of 2024, The New York Times ran an article titled “Election Fraud Is Rare. Except Maybe In Bridgeport, CT.” In Episode 2, we go deep into the history of our organizing to stop absentee ballot abuse and fraud, often in the face of a Democratic establishment who is hellbent on keeping the status quo. This episode is the first part of a two-part story. Part 2 will air on Saturday, August 9th.

Strange things are happening in Bridgeport, CT and across the country. WTF is going on? In this first episode, we get into all of it: the good, the bad and the crazy. Co-hosts Gemeem and Callie discuss the history behind their organizing, how they discovered "the thing" underneath the thing (aka corruption), and how Bridgeport City Hall is a mirror image of the chaos in the White House.
