What Do Your Elected Officials ACTUALLY Do?

<p>In this episode we&#39;re breaking down who actually has power over what in government—from Congress and the President to governors, state legislatures, mayors, city councils, county commissioners, sheriffs, school boards, and the people running government agencies behind the scenes.</p><p><br></p><p>We&#39;re also getting into why the President isn&#39;t the governor&#39;s boss, why a mayor&#39;s power can look completely different depending on the city, how political party control affects what government can actually get done, and why sometimes the person getting blamed for something doesn&#39;t even have the authority to fix it.</p><p><br></p><p>Because when you&#39;re deciding who deserves your vote, knowing their name and political party isn&#39;t enough. You should also know: <strong>What job am I actually hiring this person to do? What power will they have if they win? And who else has to cooperate with them to make the things they&#39;re promising actually happen?</strong></p><p><br></p><ul><li>🎧 <a href="https://beacons.ai/thesubjectivepod/listen">⁠⁠Catch the latest episode ⁠⁠</a></li><li>🗳️ <a href="https://beacons.ai/thesubjectivepod/voterresources">⁠⁠Get voter-ready⁠⁠</a></li><li>📰 <a href="https://beacons.ai/thesubjectivepod/sources">⁠⁠See my favorite news + research sources⁠⁠</a></li><li>💌 <a href="https://thesubjectivepod.substack.com/">⁠⁠Read more on Substack⁠⁠</a></li><li>💬 Join the conversation on Threads: @_donyellemurray</li><li>📱 Follow Subjective on IG, TikTok + Facebook: @thesubjectivepod</li></ul><p><br></p>
