Election season is heating up, but are the polls telling voters the full story? Tudor Dixon sits down with veteran pollster John McLaughlin, CEO and partner at McLaughlin & Associates and longtime adviser to President Donald Trump, for an inside look at the battle for Congress in the 2026 midterm elections. McLaughlin breaks down the razor-thin Michigan Senate race, why he believes Republicans need to sharpen their message, and how turnout could ultimately determine control of the House and Senate. He also explains why he questions some national polling methodologies and argues that Republicans must take their case directly to voters rather than relying on traditional media. The conversation dives into Mike Rogers and the Michigan Senate race, Abdul El-Sayed and the Democratic Party's progressive wing, Medicare for All, taxes, housing affordability, voter ID and proof of citizenship, as well as Republican proposals that McLaughlin believes could help define a national midterm agenda. Tudor and McLaughlin also examine Democratic primary results in Michigan, Wisconsin and Florida, the growing influence of democratic socialist candidates, concerns surrounding political fundraising and foreign money, and what both parties' strategies could mean for the balance of power in Washington. With the 2026 midterms approaching, McLaughlin says Republicans cannot simply run on President Trump's accomplishments—they need to clearly tell voters what comes next and define the choice facing the country.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Michigan could determine which party controls the U.S. Senate in 2026—and veteran Republican strategist Stu Sandler joins Lisa Boothe to explain why this race is one of the most consequential in the country. Drawing on decades of experience in Michigan politics, Sandler breaks down the high-stakes matchup between Republican Mike Rogers and Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed, examining campaign strategy, voter coalitions, turnout, and the issues that could decide the election. The conversation also explores whether Michigan has truly become a swing state, how President Trump's coalition reshaped the political landscape, why Republicans believe they can flip the Senate seat, and how Democrats are balancing progressive activism with broader general election appeal. Sandler also offers his outlook on the battle for control of both the Senate and House, along with what the Democratic Party could look like after the Trump era. If you're following the 2026 midterm elections, Michigan politics, or the fight for Senate control, this episode provides an insider's analysis of one of the nation's most important races.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Former CIA intelligence analyst and targeter Sarah Adams joins Tudor Dixon for a warning about foreign influence operations targeting American politics and elections. Adams breaks down what she describes as the growing alliance between Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), Islamist political organizations, and political candidates—and explains why Americans should pay closer attention to the organizations, money, and influence networks operating behind campaigns. Tudor and Sarah examine concerns surrounding Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, the Muslim Brotherhood, CAIR Action, campus organizations, and the role social media influencers can play in amplifying foreign-backed narratives—sometimes without even realizing where the messaging originated. They also explore why Adams believes the threat isn't limited to the political left. Could similar influence operations fracture Republicans and conservatives by pushing voters toward third parties or convincing them to stay home? Plus, Adams reveals a stunning vulnerability inside Washington: congressional staffers aren't universally required to undergo background checks. She explains what she witnessed while working on Capitol Hill and why she believes Congress needs stronger counterintelligence safeguards. It's a wide-ranging conversation about foreign influence, election interference, political extremism, national security, and whether Americans recognize the threat before it becomes too powerful to ignore.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Were Democratic attorneys general preparing to wage a legal battle against Donald Trump before voters even went to the polls? On this episode of The Tudor Dixon Podcast, Tudor is joined by The Center Square investigative reporter Adam Herbets to discuss documents showing that more than 20 Democratic state attorneys general entered into a common-interest agreement as early as April 2024—months before Donald Trump won the presidential election. The agreement allowed the states to coordinate on what they called “federal accountability projects,” which Herbets says have since resulted in roughly 100 lawsuits against the Trump administration. Herbets explains how the states coordinated their legal strategies, why questions are being raised about taxpayer resources and public-record transparency, and whether these lawsuits are becoming a political and fundraising tool. He also details how states including California and New Jersey allocated additional money toward legal challenges involving the Trump administration. Tudor and Herbets also examine the growing role of money in politics, Gavin Newsom’s fundraising relationships with nonprofits and major corporations, government contracts, and the increasingly blurred line between political influence and public policy. The Tudor Dixon Podcast takes a closer look at the money, political power, and legal battles shaping government—and asks what taxpayers deserve to know about what is happening behind the scenes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Michigan could become ground zero for a political shift Andrew Parker has been warning about for years.In Episode 496 of The Andrew Parker Show, Andrew examines Abdul El-Sayed's U.S. Senate candidacy, the Democratic Party's evolving relationship with Israel, and what he sees as the growing influence of anti-Israel and Islamist politics within the party.Andrew argues that the stakes extend far beyond one Senate race. With Republican Mike Rogers potentially facing El-Sayed in November, he asks whether Michigan's Jewish voters could determine the outcome — and whether lifelong Democrats will reconsider their political loyalties when support for Israel and concerns about antisemitism are on the line.He also examines why the absence of Donald Trump from the ballot could affect Republican turnout, the enthusiasm driving the progressive left, and why he believes Michigan may offer an important preview of where American politics is headed.Is this simply another closely contested Senate race, or a warning about a much larger political transformation?Politics.

I've been watching Michigan politics for a long time, and this Abdul El-Sayed vs. Haley Stevens primary feels like the front line of a bigger national reckoning. With Norris Howard and Devon O'Reilly, we unpack the pissed-off electorate, Whitmer's data-center problem, and how PAC money and billionaire money are backfiring with voters.  Many think that Michigan is a purple state, full of moderate ideas; and we talk about how voters are more angry than anything else. We talk about Trump's underwater numbers, Mike Rogers' vulnerability, and why running against the Democratic establishment might be the only way Democrats win in November.

Former Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan has abruptly ended his independent run for governor, blowing up Michigan's 2026 race less than six months before voters head to the polls. In this emergency episode of Daily Detroit, Jer, Devon and Norris break down why Duggan says "the numbers just aren't there," how national headwinds shifted after Trump's second-term agenda, and why independents are stampeding away from the GOP this cycle. We get into what Duggan's exit means for Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson's path to the governor's office, the clown car situation on the Republican side, and how this all reshapes the map heading into the Mackinac Policy Conference. We also kick around some speculation on Duggan's next move — including strong rumors about the presidency of the University of Michigan — and why his "fixer" skill set might be headed from city hall to collegiate head.  As always, be sure to follow us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to shows.

In this episode of The Tudor Dixon Podcast, Tudor Dixon breaks down President Trump’s recent visit to Michigan and the major economic news the media glossed over.

Joined by The Midwestener's Kyle Olson, the conversation also tackles the media firestorm over a heckler exchange, questioning why corporate outlets focused on theatrics instead of the real economic wins. Tudor and Kyle explore how this pattern of coverage distorts public perception and shields Democrats from accountability.

The Age of Anxiety: Political Media, Dementia, and the Boomer FearIn Michigan living rooms—from Flint to Saginaw to small towns up north—older Americans watch political news that feels less like reporting and more like a public trial of aging itself. Every stumble, verbal slip, or moment of confusion by national leaders is clipped, replayed, and mocked. For older viewers, this coverage is not abstract or partisan. It is personal.This investigative audio essay examines how constant media focus on age and cognition quietly harms older adults, especially in aging, post-industrial communities. Drawing on research in psychology, aging, and media studies, it explores fear of dementia, stigma, loneliness, and how political spectacle fuels anxiety, withdrawal, and disengagement from democracy.As Michigan approaches critical elections, this episode asks a deeper question: What happens to a democracy when aging itself is treated as entertainment—and dignity is the cost? #TheAgeOfAnxiety #InvestigativeAudio #AgingInAmerica #MediaAndDemocracy #MichiganPolitics #BoomerGeneration #CognitiveHealth #PublicWellBeing We would like to hear from you!
