After a 6-month hiatus, Danny Martin returns, along with co-host Josh Gerber, with a new mission statement for the podcast:
1. To explain to people why the Republican Party is the best vehicle of change within our current system of government, not just here in Lancaster but at the national level.
2. To promote America-first ideas and grassroots candidates, in order to help purify said party, so that it can be freed from control by career politicians and special interests (i.e. the “establishment”) that hinder the implementation of these ideas.
