Episode Description from the Publisher

In this episode of Left of Old North, we sit down with Chuck Hubbard, the Democrat taking on far-right Rep. Virginia Foxx in North Carolina’s 5th Congressional District. Chuck talks with us about what it means to run in rural Western North Carolina, why Foxx’s long career of extremism and inaction has failed the people she’s supposed to represent, and how Democrats can reclaim ground in so-called “unwinnable” districts. We dig into the GOP’s culture war chaos, the local issues that actually matter to voters, and what it will take to retire Virginia Foxx once and for all.
