            SHARED FOR INFORMATION AND EDUCATION ABOUT tRUMP'S 

            LATEST SCAM! 

            BUY AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP FOR $1 MILLION????

Donald Trump launched his newest scam: a “Trump Gold Card” that gives millionaires and billionaires a fast track to U.S. citizenship for a $1 million fee. While ICE raids rip immigrant families apart and veterans who served this country get deported, the man in the White House is literally selling the American Dream to whoever can cut him the biggest check.  My grandfather came here with little more than the shirt on his back. He worked the steel mills of Chicago and the coal mines of Appalachia to give his family a shot at a better life. He raised kids and grandkids who wore the uniform, served in combat, taught in public schools, and fought to make this country stronger. That was the promise of America: that hard work, grit, and service could earn you a place in the story of this nation. If you still believe the American Dream should be open to anyone willing to earn it through sweat and service, help me flip this seat and send these MAGA jackaloons packing. For Trump, this is the same old con.  Pretend to stand with working people, then sell them out to the highest bidder. Working class immigrants contribute more to this country in a single shift than Trump has in his entire life.  They pay taxes, raise families, and put in the kind of labor he’s never known.  And this was never about damn money anyway:  it’s about dignity, belonging, and the belief that every person willing to work for a better future deserves that chance. I refuse to watch this country be pawned off piece by piece to grifters who treat citizenship like a Fox News infomercial, wedged between gold coin ads and miracle brain pills. The American Dream is not for sale. Chip in to help me flip this seat and send a working-class veteran to Congress who will fight for the people build sustain this country!

WE KNOW THAT MANY OF THESE FAMILIES CONTRIBUTED TO THEIR LOCAL 

ECONOMIES ACROSS THE NATION....THEY WORKED...BUILT BUSINESES....ABIDED 

BY THE LAWS.....EDUCATED THEIR CHILDREN....

TRUMP'S IRRATIONAL MASS DEPORTATION LUNACY IS NOT A SOLUTION.... 

MORE LIKE A COSTLY INVESTMENT IN  IRRATIONAL POLICY THAT REMOVES 

LAW ABIDING PEOPLE, HARD WORKING FAMILIES BASED ON RACISM - THE 

COLOR OF THEIR SKIN - WITHOUT DUE PROCESS! 

WUNC recently reported that ICE arrests in North Carolina doubled last year. More than 3,400 of our friends, family and neighbors were taken, most with NO criminal record at all. The data shows few convictions but a whole lot of chaos. Hundreds of people with pending charges have been swept up just to fill Trump’s good squad detention centers. Who could have predicted that handing badges and body armor to a bunch of backyard soldiers with zero strategy beyond racist vibes would turn into a humanitarian disaster? Richard Hudson is proud to stand behind this idiotic thuggery tearing innocent families apart in his own backyard. Help me flip this seat and show him the door. Here’s what those numbers really mean: twice as many families torn apart, twice as many small businesses pushed to the edge, twice as many Christmases with an empty chair at the table. More veterans detained, citizens and legal residents hauled off without cause, and more lives wrecked just to feed the headlines that keep Trump and Richard Hudson’s cruelty-fueled movement alive. This is what Hudson thinks passes for leadership: letting his own constituents rot in detention centers while his party pretends that randomly snatching people off the street is sound immigration policy. Remember, Hudson is the same clown who recently claimed Hispanic voters in our community are the “most happy” with dragnet ICE raids – and he thinks Latino voters are his path to victory in 2026.

The Trump administration just announced they’re cutting off every dime of USDA funding to Minnesota because their cult leader can’t stand the idea of a state that didn’t vote for him. They swallowed a racist YouTube conspiracy about Somali Americans and now every Minnesota family that relies on SNAP, every senior who counts on meal programs, and every kid who depends on free school lunches is going to pay for it. Help me face these cowards in Washington and show them that this country doesn’t belong to crooks who treat hunger like politics. Trump’s got no interest in being president for anyone outside his little flock of sycophants. He’ll starve children, pull the rug out from working families, and laugh about it on Truth Social while his goons call it “tough leadership.” If they’ll do this to Minnesota, they will do it to any of us. Guaranteed. Now is the time to step up and fight for our neighbors. Congress has the power of the purse, and only Congress gets to decide when funding for ANY federal program is cut off – not that dime store dictator in the White House. When I get to Congress, I’m hauling these bastards in for hearings until the end of time so every American can see how deep this rot goes, and we’ll rip it out by the roots.

I fought in one war for oil. I won’t watch another.

This weekend I said what every veteran who fought in Iraq and Afghanistan already knows in our bones: this attack on Venezuela is another illegal war for oil and profit. Then Trump took the podium and proved me right. He bragged, “We’re going to run the country” and “fix Venezuela’s oil infrastructure.” Fix it for whom? Exxon? Halliburton? The same corporate bloodsuckers who never miss a war but never fight one either. I’ll be damned if we let this happen again. CHIP IN TO SEND A COMBAT COMMANDER TO CONGRESS! Trump’s cronies at Exxon and Chevron are lining up for their cut, and every word out of his mouth drips with greed dressed up as liberation. Meanwhile he has no plan for the power vacuum he just created or how it’s going to hurt the Venezuelan people. And it’s not doing us any favors here at home, either. Iraq didn’t find freedom. Afghanistan didn’t get liberation. And Libya was supposed to be a model for democracy, remember? Now it’s a warlord’s playground where human beings are sold like livestock. Every time these bastards at the top launch an asset grab wrapped in the flag and cheap patriotism, the world is left burning, broken, and poorer for it.  Our so-called commander-in -chief knows this. He dodged questions about boots on the ground because he knows it means more dead kids, and more Gold Star families at home. If we don’t stand up now, they’ll feed us the same lies they fed us over 20 years ago. Chip in today to help me flip this seat and bring a soldier’s truth to Washington.

When you cut the VA, veterans die

VETERANS PRESENT WITH INJURIES NOT SEEN IN CIVILIAN CARE FACILITIES... 

If you have never been to a VA Facility, you likely have no comprehension of the severity of the COMBAT INJURIES that are being addressed..... 

MANY ARE AMPUTEES. 

MANY ARRIVE IN WHEELCHAIRS. 

SOME ARRIVE BY AMBULANCE ON STRETCHERS BECAUSE THEY LACK MOBILITY!

MANY LIVE IN CONSTANT PAIN FROM THEIR INJURIES and THE VA VETERANS who sacrifice their lives to provide COMPASSIONATE CARE understand the CONSEQUENCES of SERVICE TO THE NATION THAT SENT THEM TO WAR!

MANY LIVE WITH PTSD that no civilian facility can comprehend or understand. 

A local HERO shared a room with a friend...that HERO rescued others and exposed himself to AGENT ORANGE from which he was dying - the CONSEQUENCES OF VIETNAM! 

A HERO WHO DIED TOO YOUNG! 

A NATION SENT YOUNG MEN TO WAR! 

THE NATION HAS AN OBLIGATION TO PROVIDE CARE REGARDLESS OF COST! 

FULLY FUND THE VETERANS ADMINISTRATION TO PROVIDE THAT CARE! 

The VA just announced it will slash as many as 35,000 health care positions before the end of the year – on TOP of the 30,000 jobs they already slashed in 2025. That means fewer doctors and fewer staff for the millions of veterans who depend on the VA every single day.  It’s the largest workforce reduction the agency has faced in decades – and it’s the direct result of Donald Trump and Richard Hudson’s gutless MAGA budget and their hair-brained DOGE scheme.  Let me say this as clearly as I can: When you make cuts to the VA, veterans die.  And I won’t stand for it.  Help me flip this seat so I can bring the fight straight to the cowards who gutted the VA and make them answer for every veteran they’ve left behind. MAGA’s goal has always been to privatize the VA, hand it over to their corporate donors, and make veterans beg for care we were promised as part of our service. Now we’re watching it happen in real time  The VA was already stretched thin before these cuts. Anyone who’s ever walked into one of those hospitals knows the strain. Every veteran receiving care has dealt with overworked staff, overcrowded clinics, and mountains of red tape.  These new cuts will push the system past its breaking point.  As a veteran, I’ve had enough of cowards like Richard Hudson calling himself a “Veterans Representative” while leading the charge to slash the very care that keeps us alive.  I will fight these bastards with everything I’ve got because I know what is at stake if our veteran’s systems fails.  I’ve seen the pain, the burnout, the loss. I’m running to fix it.  Chip in today to help me flip this seat and send a veteran to Congress who will fight for every soldier, sailor, airman, and Marine who earned their care in blood and service.  DONATE TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST MAGA EXTREMISM!

A handwritten note with a whole lot of heart

MIDDLEBORO REVIEW AND SO ON

Earlier this week, I shared on social media the story of a man who mailed in his last $7 and a handwritten note to support this campaign.  He said he believed in what we’re building and wanted to do his part, even when times were tough. I don’t take a single dollar of that lightly. In an economy where folks are scraping to get by, sending $7 is more than just a donation, it’s an act of faith. It means someone looked at the way things are going under Trump’s broken economy and decided to believe in something better. I asked if we could match his $7 to show him how far it could go, and because of you, we’ve already turned it into $318.  That’s what people power looks like: folks stepping up for each other, turning seven bucks and a little hope into real fuel for a working-class movement that’s growing every single day. Let’s keep this goodwill going.   If 100 people chip in $7 tonight, we’ll turn our supporter’s last $7 into $700. Every dollar is going toward organizing, outreach, and standing up for working families across North Carolina. We take every contribution seriously because they come from the heart. This campaign is built on grit, sacrifice, and the belief that working people deserve leaders who fight for them. Chip in $7 now and help us keep proving that together, we can outwork and outfight and outlast the MAGA machine. DONATE TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST MAGA EXTREMISM!
