Battleground with David Plouffe & Steve Schmidt

Battleground with David Plouffe & Steve Schmidt

by

Battleground brings you inside the fight for political power. Hosts Amanda Litman and Faiz Shakir aren’t your typical pundits – in fact, they’re not pundits at all. They’re doing the work day-in and day-out, and have the inside scoop on what’s really happening behind the tweets and headlines. Every week, Amanda and Faiz have a wide-ranging, unguarded, and occasionally profanity-laden conversation with reporters, activists, organizers, political scientists, campaign operatives – and even some conservatives – in order to shine a light on the problems we face and figure out how we can fix them. Both bring deep knowledge and experience building grassroots movements for change. Amanda is the co-founder and executive director Run for Something, which recruits and supports young progressives running for local state and local offices, and host of the Run for Something podcast on Dear Media. Faiz was the campaign manager for Bernie Sanders 2020 presidential campaign, and he’s the founder of the progressive media non-profit, More Perfect Union.
