Politically Minded Gal

Hi, I am Ashley Crosby and I am a politically-minded gal who believes that words matter. And none matter more than those spoken or used by the individuals we elect to a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. So, in this podcast, I strive to take an unbiased approach to examine the meaning of the words used by modern-day and historical political influencers. So, when it is our turn to vote, to govern, and to lead, we are better educated and informed than the generations before us who have left us with a mess. Subscribe and join me on this journey to better understand the impact the words of our leaders have on our future. And what we can do about it.

The Effects of Assassinations on US Politics

July 22, 2024 • Ashley • Season 3 • Episode 1

Hi Everyone...

The Politically Minded Gal is back after some much-needed time off to finish high school and get accepted to my dream college, the University of Virginia!

And now that I'm sitting in front of a microphone again, it's time to talk about the BIGGEST political news in my lifetime. The assassination attempt of former President Donald Trump, the 2024 Republican nominee for President.

In this episode, I don't just focus on the breaking news or wild conspiracy theories. No, instead, we will look at how past assassinations and attempts have effected our democracy and the outcomes of elections.

Thanks for listening! I'm so happy to be back with you all! - Ashley
