Oliver Larkin, a progressive Democrat and former staffer on Bernie Sanders’ 2016 presidential campaign seeking the primary nomination for Florida’s 23rd Congressional District against incumbent Jared Moskowitz — one of the most prominent conservative, pro-Israel Democrats in Congress — spoke with Drop Site’s Julian Andreone on Friday about his campaign and the issues driving it.

Dr. Abdul El-Sayed is a Bernie Sanders-endorsed doctor running for the Democratic nomination for Michigan’s next United States senator in 2026. He ran for governor of Michigan in 2018, but has his eyes on Washington as he seeks to get money out of politics, pass Medicare for All, and end forever wars.

He met up with Drop Site’s Julian Andreone on Wednesday to discuss why he is running for higher office, among other topics, including the Iran War, corruption in Congress, and Jeffrey Epstein’s ties to intelligence agencies.

To get to the heart of this question, Drop Site’s Julian Andreone will be embarking on a new series — Capitol GAINS.

Israel has killed more than 270 Palestinian journalists in Gaza over the last two years, and foreign reporters remain barred from entering the territory.

What does Congress actually know—and what are they doing about it? Drop Site’s Julian Andreone went to Capitol Hill and pressed members, not just on press freedom but on Israeli ceasefire violations and whether they plan to take action in response.

As the media and members of Congress were sifting through the latest Jeffrey Epstein files released by the Department of Justice, one topic continued to elude them — Epstein’s well-established ties to Israeli and U.S. intelligence.
