In this episode of The Inside Lines, we sit down once again with Chris Musto, candidate for the New Jersey Assembly in Legislative District 36 and a 24-year veteran of the Department of Homeland Security.
We dive right in with an update on Musto's campaign in the final stretch before Election Day (Nov 4), the challenges of running for office, and how voters have responded to his message of service, accountability, and safety.
We also discuss:
– The League of Women Voters issue and why his opponents declined to participate
– NJ PBA endorsement controversy
– His reaction to the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the dangers of political violence
– A candid discussion about ICE — what it really does, why it’s misunderstood, and the growing lack of cooperation from local police departments in cities like Chicago.
– His perspective on the “woke to warrior” culture shift in today’s military
Whether you’re a New Jersey voter, a supporter of law enforcement, or just someone who wants a grounded perspective on politics and public service — this is a must-listen.
🗳️ Election Day is November 4th — make your voice heard.
