Hello and welcome to the Bullwark Podcast. I'm your host Tim Miller. We got a mailback at the end,

so stick around for that. Plus, I am just delighted to be here with a very bulwarky congresswoman.

She's from New Jersey and just launched her

campaign for governor. And Congress, she's a member of the House Armed Services Committee.

She's also a former U.S. Navy helicopter pilot and a former prosecutor, much to discuss. It's

Mikey Sherrill. How are you? How are you? You said not great. Yeah. I've been better.

I've been better. You're doing great. Is that really true? Is that politician talking? You know,

you know what? I probably should say world adjusted. I'm doing great. I just had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

My daughter is in the Navy. She's at the Naval Academy

Prep School. So she was just home. And I saw her. And then I just announced I'm running for

governor. So I'm very excited about that. It's, I'm sort of, you know, an action oriented person.

So in the wake of the election, having a mission, a plan, it just felt good,

I have to say. I hear that. I also am an action-oriented person. And it's been advice

I've been giving folks, you know, because I get messages from people who are like unreasonably quite broken right and quite down about what happened

in the election and scared and but they want to do something right and it's like what can we do

like the reality is like at a national level it's it's kind of tough at this point and you can

contact we'll talk a little about pete higgseth in a bit. Our DOD designate, at least for the

moment. Who knows if that'll be true at the end of the day. So you can call your senator or whatever.

But I've been saying, honestly, find stuff locally, like to get involved in. But I don't know.

Do you have advice for people that can't decide to run for governor that are looking for things to

do?

Yeah, I think you're exactly right.
