Nerds for Humanity Substack Podcast

Max Steiner takes on CA-1 and Doug LaMalfa.

Chen has 4 degrees from Harvard and teaches at Stanford and wants to bring transparency and accountability to government spending programs.

Tom and the team from Abstract.us analyze the legislative text that created such a huge debate. Was there $400B in unrelated spending added by the Democrats or were the Republicans simply mad about Biden getting another win? Read the bill? We did that and here's the facts.

Tom breaks down the Forward Party's policy hints, values, mission, and unboxes their website, press release, and Andrew Yang and Christine Todd Whitman and David Jolly's Washington Post Editorial. Tom also discusses 2024 scenarios.

We always talk about the need for new faces. Rishi Kumar is running in Northern California in CA-16 (Tom's own district) to unseat Anna Eshoo who has been in Congress since 1993. Rishi and Anna will be the only two candidates that advanced to the general election ballot and Anna for the first time got less than 50% of votes in the primary.

Tom reviews each CA-32 congressional candidate and stack ranks them with one as his official Nerds for Humanity endorsement.

Brad Sherman, Aarika Rhodes, Shervin Aazami? Who will Tom endorse?

Tom, Shervin, Melissa discuss healthcare, homelessness, and themselves as alternatives to Brad Sherman, Aaraka Rhodes, and other CA-32 Congressional candidates.
