from The Back Room with Andy Ostroy · host Radio Free Rhinecliff and Andy Ostroy

Cait Conley is a fourth-generation Hudson Valley native, daughter of a postal worker and a construction worker, a decorated combat veteran and national security expert. And she’s running for the House in NY’s 17th Congressional district. Cait and I discuss her campaign, the June 23 primary, the goal of taking on Republican Mike Lawlor and flipping this seat in November. We also discuss the Iran war and how its being illegally and incompetently waged by Donald Trump and SecDef Pete Hegseth and is making America, the Middle East and the world less safe.
