From Public Housing to Public Office? Meet Deja Foxx.
Deja Foxx may only be 25, but she’s been fighting for progressive causes since she was 16 — all while growing up on Medicaid, food stamps, Section 8, and even facing homelessness. Now, she’s running for Congress in Arizona’s democratic special election primary. But Deja isn’t just another influencer activist — she’s incredibly sharp, savvy, and knows exactly what working people are up against because she lived it. In this episode, we dig into what makes Deja such a powerful voice in a party that’s desperate for fresh leadership. We also talk about the issues still plaguing the democratic party, how to humanize the fight against Trump’s mass deportation operation, and why candidates like Deja aren’t just refreshing — they’re essential.
