On this explosive episode of The Dangerous Ones, Jim, Tiffany, and Nick break down the jaw-dropping new ad from Progress Action Fund that’s got the White House, and Fox News scrambling. The ad, which dramatizes ICE agents kidknapping a young woman based on only her appearance, is already going viral for its shocking realism and political punch. We dig into the strategy behind the ad’s powerful narrative, its brutal takedown of Republican immigration policy, and how it successfully shifts young male voters away from the GOP by up to four points. You’ll hear why bold, cinematic political storytelling is finally catching fire on the left, and why this ad may be one of the most effective of 2025.

We also spotlight the creators behind the movement, Joe Jacobson and Kyle Richards, and examine how Progress Action Fund’s disruptive messaging and data-driven ad testing is changing the game for Democratic campaigns in swing states. From Fox News backlash to Gen Z engagement, this episode covers the intersection of viral media, modern voter suppression, targeted political messaging, and the urgent fight for civil rights. Plus, the hosts reflect on their own approach at Eleven Films and how this new wave of political content is reshaping the battle for hearts, minds, and votes.
