America needs leaders. And leaders are in short supply. That seems to be the case in Washington at least. Whether it’s Pete Hegseth’s ongoing hateful attacks on the LGBTQ service members under his command or his self aggrandizing ad or the ongoing chaos at the Pentagon, none of it is efficient and none of it is making any of us any safer.
America needs leaders.
They’re out there. And more and more frequently they aren’t claiming either political party. Independent leaders we’ve profiled in recent episodes. Independent leaders like Colorado Springs Mayor Yemi Mobolade, independent candidate for Senate from South Dakota Brian Bengs, Independent candidate for Mayor of New York Jim Walden. The future is independent—and chances are good that you’re going to hear from those leaders of the future here, first.
That includes Chattanooga, Tennessee Mayor Tim Kelly. He’s just gotten reelected for a second term by a huge margin. And that’s in large part because he’s getting hard things done. Housing, crime, community relations and making the trains run on time. And, fixing potholes! He’s also bringing business, international sports and excitement to this important crossroads American city. Much of what Kelly had been doing and saying in Chattanooga could be a model for the rest of America. And he could be running for higher office one day down the line.
