Victoria Doyle on Ending Big Money in Politics

Thu, 23 Apr 2026 10:54:29 -0400

In this Season 4 episode of Dr. Cindy Speaks on the Big Mouth Media Network, host Dr. Cindy Banyai interviews Florida congressional candidate Victoria Doyle, a former corporate lawyer and longtime activist who moved from New York to Florida and is challenging incumbent Rep. Lois Frankel. Doyle says she’s running because of Frankel’s reliance on PAC, corporate, and billionaire money and calls for bold, grassroots politics focused on overturning Citizens United via a constitutional amendment, tackling income inequality, and passing universal healthcare. The conversation also addresses Democrats’ messaging and leadership, and Doyle outlines her approach to Israel and Gaza: holding hearings on facts on the ground, applying the Leahy Law, and being willing to pause or reduce military aid while openly criticizing Prime Minister Netanyahu. Doyle shares ways to volunteer or donate at doyleforcongress.org. Donate to Victoria Doyle here.

Thu, 16 Apr 2026 12:11:48 -0400

On tax day and FEC filing day (April 15, 2026), Dr. Cindy Banyai hosts Amanda Marie Green (AMG), a North Florida Democrat running for Congress in Florida’s 2nd District, the largest by land mass east of the Mississippi. Green shares her background as a military-family “Florida kid,” her career with a top USAID partner, and how the Trump administration’s dismantling of USAID—along with difficulty reaching her congressman—helped drive her to run, even while pregnant and now as a new mother. She describes district priorities including hunger, rural healthcare access, and Black maternal health outcomes, argues for stronger constituent services and bringing federal dollars home, and discusses foreign bot influence on social media.

Dr. Cindy Banyai interviews Ashley Bell, a physician assistant and longtime educator running for Congress in North Carolina’s 10th District, during the final week of early voting ahead of the March 3 primary.

Bell contrasts her direct, progressive messaging with establishment Democrats, warns about Trump’s foreign-policy escalation and Congress’s duty under war powers, and asks voters for turnout, visibility, and donations at ab4nc.com.

Florida’s Power Grab, Developer Giveaways & the Rise of the Police State

Thu, 19 Feb 2026 14:19:23 -0500

Dr. Cindy Banyai hosts an episode of Dr. Cindy Speaks dated February 19, 2026, discussing why she calls Florida the most fascist state in the country and highlighting legislation moving through the Florida Legislature. She says lawmakers will not take up promised property tax reform, arguing cuts would disproportionately benefit wealthy property owners, exclude renters and young people, and create budget shortfalls that would worsen underinvestment in infrastructure, including roads and water systems. She contrasts property tax cuts with her campaign idea of a summer sales tax holiday to help Florida residents when tourism slows. She references Gaslit Nation and Andrea Chalupa, including the film Mr. Jones about Stalin’s genocide in Ukraine, and a discussion about the Nuremberg trials that concluded Nazi leaders were often opportunists driven by ambition rather than a specific mental disorder. She connects this to modern politics, describing opportunism, narcissism, and “win at any cost” incentives in the MAGA era, citing Byron Donalds and tech leaders’ shifts in response to Donald Trump. Banyai urges critical thinking, compassion, and conscientiousness as antidotes to authoritarianism, and then focuses on Florida bills she says consolidate power and favor developers, especially the “Blue Ribbon Projects” bills (SB 354 and HB 299), which she says reduce local control, limit environmental challenges, and curtail public input. She describes developer lobbying influence in southwest Florida, mentioning Ballard Partners and lobbyist Terry Miller’s role in local and state campaigns and a school board lobbying contract. She argues state preemptions have eroded home rule, giving an example involving Key West cruise ship restrictions and a state law preventing municipalities from regulating cruise ship docking. She also cites culture-war legislation such as banning pride flags and a bill she describes as “don’t say gay at work,” affecting recognition of identities and pronoun use. Benet says Florida’s militarization and expansion of policing differentiates it as fascist, citing DeSantis’ creation of specialized forces, an election integrity police force, and Florida’s universal 287(g) cooperation with ICE across all law enforcement and enforcement agencies. She warns about surveillance capabilities, including use of cameras to track protesters, and references Palantir and Peter Thiel moving business headquarters to Miami. She urges viewers to contact legislators about SB 354/HB 299 and HB 991, which she says would require voters to provide citizenship documentation to be re-registered shortly before a primary, and encourages continued voting and speaking out.
