I’m standing at an early voting site because today is the first day of early voting, and we cannot sit this one out. They’re trying to rig the rules because they know they can’t win fair and square. This election will decide whether we still have a democracy worth fighting for. Grab your family, your friends, your neighbors, and get out here and vote like the future of this country depends on it, because it does. | Team Ojeda

In my interview with 97.9 The Hill and Chapelboro, I laid it out plain and simple. I stepped up to run for NC-09 because I watched Donald Trump and Elon Musk take actions that hurt the Department of Veterans Affairs. I watched Richard Hudson back legislation that could cut 86,000 VA jobs. That was the tipping point for me. You don’t gut the VA and call yourself pro-veteran. You don’t salute the troops on Monday and slash their care on Tuesday. Not on my watch. This district deserves leadership t

Let’s talk about how Republicans spent ALL DAY yesterday gaslighting America. They tore through every press conference, every interview, every right-wing media hit, screaming that Democrats are trying to shut down the government. That was their entire game plan—frame it as if people like Jasmine Crockett and other Democrats standing up for working Americans are the bad guys. But let’s be clear about what’s actually happening: 1.Republicans control EVERYTHING—House, Senate, White House. If their

Pay attention, folks, because this is how it starts. Private prisons, mass incarceration, and modern-day slavery—it’s all coming back. Let me break it down for you. In 2021, Joe Biden took steps to phase out private prisons, but now they’re bringing them back, and it’s worse than ever. Who gets targeted when these systems expand? Black, Latino, homeless, and undocumented people. They criminalize poverty, survival, and immigration status, funneling people into for-profit prisons where corporation

A government worker who had been wrongly fired from HHS, had the intestinal fortitude to question a member of Congress while he sits back and does nothing as thousands of Americans have their lives turned upside down and their livelihoods ripped away—and his response? “You probably deserved it because you look like a clown.” That’s the level of contempt the GOP has for working people. Not because we did anything wrong, but because we dare to hold them accountable. | Richard Ojeda

At Davos, world leaders didn't mince words. They warned that the old world order isn't coming back, slammed Trump's threats as reckless, and said his approach is straining alliances. European leaders pushed back hard, with the EU vowing an "unflinching" response. Our allies telling us that they no longer trust Trump to uphold the rules that keep global stability intact.

Am I missing something here? First off, there’s a reason Congress capped National Guard deployments in U.S. cities at 30 days. It’s a safeguard against turning soldiers into a standing police force. That’s basic constitutional guardrails. But here comes JD Vance, playing footsie with martial law, saying, “Well, it depends on the crime stats, maybe longer, maybe indefinite, we’ll just see.” By his logic, if carjackings dip a little, great... the Guard goes home early. If they don’t? Strap in, bec

This 1-year-old interview that PBS did with Garrett Graff reminds us why 9/11 can't just slip from memory into history. Future generations need more than just the fact;, they need to understand the fear, the chaos, the trauma, and the way we all lived that day. This clip really gets the point across.

What played out at Davos made Gavin Newsom’s point unmistakable. While Donald Trump rambled and embarrassed the United States, world leaders made clear they were done pretending this was something to manage politely. Leaders like Keir Starmer and Emmanuel Macron rejected intimidation and appeasement outright, emphasizing strength and collective resolve instead. And Denmark didn’t bother with euphemisms at all, Anders Vistisen said what everyone else was signaling in different ways. The message w

Trump's Cabinet meeting looked less like governing and more like an audition for Dear Leader's Fan Club. North Korea would have been proud. It makes you wonder why they're heaping such ungodly amounts of praise on him. Do they know about his health problems? Are they saying their goodbyes? Or is his cabinet just a bunch of bootlicking worms that ae too scared to tell the truth? Watch this clip and tell me what you think. I'll talk about it more tonight on Ojeda Live.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth didn’t just leak military strike plans once — we now know he did it again. The first time involved an AP reporter and classified details about strikes on the Houthis. But now it’s been revealed he created a second Signal chat, this time including his wife, his brother, and his personal attorney. While Hegseth’s brother and personal attorney are reportedly Pentagon employees, their need-to-know access to this kind of information is highly questionable. And Hegset
