You see PO boxes listed as residences. You see ballots tied to people over 125 years old. You hear from Election Integrity Project California about documented irregularities that have been tracked for years.And then you ask yourself: How much of this is glitch? How much is negligence? And how much is something more serious?You also hear from combat veteran Eric Lionheart about the mental toll on law enforcement and first responders — and the healing work being done to help them.This is one of those episodes where you don’t just listen… you think.And that’s exactly what being the adult in the room requires.#ElectionIntegrity#CaliforniaPolitics#VoterID#ICE#AdultInTheRoom#NickShirley#VotingFraud
