Richard made it to MSNBC!

 

This is exciting! That clip of Richard speaking from last week’s town hall went viral, and even made it on to MSNBC’s coverage this weekend!

Richard Hudson didn’t even bother to show up for this event, but my husband was there and he spoke the TRUTH that people needed to hear.   That’s the kind of man he is – he ALWAYS shows up and he NEVER backs down.   If you missed the video the other day, you can watch it from Richard’s original message below.   Will you help us spread the word? Share this email with three friends and ask them to watch and donate with you!   Thank you so much,   Kelly Ojeda   -------- Forwarded message ------- From: Maj. Richard Ojeda (Ret.) <team@voteojedanc.com> Date: Fri, Mar 21, 2025 Subject: Hudson was a no-show — watch me give him hell anyway   Cut-and-Run Rich Hudson was supposed to show up at a town hall organized by our community in North Carolina’s 9th district last night, but he ran from it.   He couldn't even be bothered to face the music and answer tough questions about his betrayal of veterans.   So I stepped up to the microphone instead:   "How the hell do you get the gall to call yourself 'the veterans’ representative' when you sit silent while Elon Musk and Donald Trump fire over 6,000 VA workers?"

WATCH + DONATE NOW

The crowd ERUPTED in cheers and applause because they were finally being HEARD.   It’s no secret why Hudson didn’t show. He doesn't want to answer for supporting Trump and Musk's plan to fire 83,000 VA employees — doctors, nurses, and support staff who care for our veterans — by August.   Hudson is HIDING in the shadows like all those MAGA cockroaches in Congress.    And let's not forget HE is the coward who told Republicans in Congress to stop holding in-person town halls altogether and hold virtual events only so they can cherry-pick their questions and skip out on constituents demanding answers.    I'll tell you what — real patriots don't run.    But every single one of these weak, pathetic MAGA bootlickers do.   So if Richard Hudson won't answer to veterans and community members in a town hall, we'll MAKE HIM answer at the ballot box.   Please chip in $25, $50, $75, $100, or whatever fits your budget today to help me win this seat. The energy in that room last night is building fast (people are downright pissed at the GOP), and we have a real chance to make sure this spineless fraud never gets another chance to gut our veterans' care again.   If you're ready to send Cut-and-Run Rich Hudson packing and flip the House blue, now's the time to act.
