If you missed last night’s episode of The Audit The Vote Podcast, you missed a powerful conversation that was equal parts personal, political, and painfully honest.I sat down with Brandon Straka, founder of the #WalkAway Campaign, and we went deep. This wasn’t your typical fluff interview. This was real talk—about the journey, the backlash, the prison time, and yes… the controversy that has everyone whispering: What’s the deal between Straka and Presler?

💥 What We Covered:

🔹 Cancel Culture & J6:Brandon opens up about what it was like to go from viral sensation to federal target. The arrest. The fallout. The silence from so many "allies" on the right. It’s a sobering look at how quickly things can change—and who actually stands with you when they do.

🔹 #WalkAway 2.0After being silenced and censored, Brandon is back and rebuilding. We talked about what’s next for the movement and how he's moving forward in 2025 and beyond.

🔹 The Presler SituationLet’s just say: we didn’t dance around it. The growing divide inside the grassroots isn’t just frustrating—it’s dangerous. We broke it down, looked at where the messaging is going wrong, and why voters deserve the whole truth, not just the polished press-release version.

🔹 Why We Can’t Be SilentWhether you're a Brandon fan, a skeptic, or somewhere in between, you’ll want to hear what he had to say about the state of conservative activism—and why the most dangerous thing we can do is stay quiet.

🔁 My Take:

There’s a growing tension in this movement between the “just trust the system” crowd and those of us still daring to ask the hard questions. This conversation reminded me that the people who’ve been through the fire often have the clearest vision for what’s really at stake.

Brandon doesn’t pretend to be perfect—but he shows up. And in a world full of politicians, consultants, and social media influencers saying all the right things, that actually means something.
