What I want everyone who's listening to know is you're not alone. You're not alone.

And do not be afraid. Do not be afraid. There are things that are worth everything.

You know, they say that fear and overcoming it just means that there's something more important

than the fear.

And our freedom, our liberty is more important than being afraid. Hello, and welcome to the Politics Girl podcast. I'm your host Lee McGowan. Let's get into it.

Obviously, this past week was extremely terrible, with our government executing Alex Pretretti in the streets of Minneapolis and then

blatantly lying to the public about it. So while I want to talk about this and where we are as a country,

I also want to make sure we aren't feeling completely demoralized. I want to bring you the

perspectives of different people who are approaching this moment in history in different ways,

people who are trying to meet the moment, especially

the ones who are actively fighting back against this lawless fascist administration. So today I'm

having Steve Schmidt on again to talk about what the Save America movement is doing right now,

what his take on the world is, and what is going on in this country. Steve is a former Republican

operative, now an independent, who co-founded the

Lincoln Project as an opposition to Donald Trump and his leadership within the Republican Party.

While he parted ways with that organization in 2021, his new organization, the Save America

Movement, is a PAC that has been specifically organized to oppose the actions in the leadership

of his former

party under this administration. As his movement says, this is not right versus left, it's right

versus wrong. So without further ado, please welcome my guest, political strategist, gifted communicator

and co-founder of the Save America movement, Steve Schmidt. Welcome back, Steve. Great to see you late.

Well, thanks for coming. I mean, it is a rough time to be a thinking law-abiding American.
