Can a Democrat Win Alabama’s Reddest District? Amanda Pusczek Thinks Alabama CD-4 Can Change

Josh and David react to The Alabama Solution documentary missing out on an Oscar, then dive into Attorney General Steve Marshall’s remarks attacking the film. They break down why violence, rape, and extortion inside Alabama prisons are still crimes, no matter who the victims are. The conversation turns to rehabilitation, parole, and why Alabama’s prison system keeps making a bad problem worse.Then, Congressional candidate Amanda Pusczek joins the show to talk about running as a Democrat in Alabama’s 4th District, the reddest district in the country. She explains why low turnout, voter apathy, and a lack of competition have left so many people disconnected from politics. The conversation also focuses on rural hospitals, affordability, and what voters in the district actually care about.Representative Pebblin Warren joins the show to discuss the legislative session, rural healthcare, mental health, gambling revenue, and the state’s ongoing failure to address its biggest needs. She also talks about HBCU funding, Tuskegee University, and why Alabama keeps leaving money and opportunity on the table. The episode closes with a warning about proposed voting changes that could limit voter choice.Finally, Josh and David call out Tommy Tuberville’s rhetoric targeting Muslims and questioning what kind of politics he’s embracing. They discuss the double standards around religion, the way bias shows up in schools and healthcare, and why fear-based politics still works. It’s a blunt conversation about prejudice, political opportunism, and the danger of treating religious freedom like it only applies to some people.RESOURCES & SOCIALS🔵 Bluesky: @alpoliticsthisweek.com⚫ X/Twitter: @alathisweek🔵 Facebook: facebook.com/alathisweekSUPPORT THE SHOW👍 Like this video and SUBSCRIBE⭐ Rate us on Apple Podcasts or Spotify📧 Email questions/voice notes to [email protected] with your nameABOUT OUR SPONSORAlabama Politics This Week is sponsored by Wind Creek Hospitality, the gaming and hospitality entity for the Poarch Band of Creek Indians, with properties across the U.S. and Caribbean — including Alabama — offering entertainment, dining, hotels, and amenities.Music courtesy of Mr. Smith via the Free Music Archive.
