After 2 decades of continuous war our corrupt ruling class decided the best way to save some cash for their foreign aid/defense money laundering schemes is to cut the benefits for the men & women who volunteered to fight the wars for the last 21 years.

washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/… If you’ve been following this story it’s followed the typical ruling class propaganda patten-

“No we aren’t, that’s not true!”
(Last week)

“Ok we are but, it’s a good thing!” (We are currently here)

“Agree or you are an extremist!”
(Give it a week or 2)

The pentagon is desperate to lock in it’s payday as most pragmatic observers realize the model of endless funding to Ukraine is not sustainable.

All efforts must be made to get Ukraine & Russia to the negotiating table to stop the killing & prevent WW3.

theintercept.com/2022/11/30/ukr… For peace, Ukraine & Russia need to figure out their border & we must end NATO expansion east.

No more military aid for Zelensky until he’s at the negotiating table, take NATO/EU membership off the table to get Putin to the table.

The Republican establishment wants 22’ to be a referendum against America 1st, they want controlled weak republicans who vote as they are told.

In the last week 2.5 million has been spent against me b/c I’m leading in the polls & Beutler might not make the top 2. To take away from my lead the establishment spent 1.3 million on a 4th place spoiler candidate who previously agreed, as I did, to rally around the Trump endorsed candidate to prevent this scenario.

Now they are sending mislead mailers to make it look like she’s Trump endorsed. Image

I’m grateful for every moment we had together & for the lives we created.

Speak their names, tell their stories & live a life worthy of their sacrifice.

Shannon eternal. Shannon was killed in Manbij, Syria by an ISIS suicide bomber with three other Americans who also dedicated their lives to our post 9/11 wars & gave their last full measure on the 16th of January 2019.

The entire narrative about cost of the Iraq war, nearly 5k US KIA & over a trillion spent, shifted from a war based on lies to “we created a democracy!” the ISIS fight diverted any real scrutiny from the government / democracy we installed in reality It’s as big of a fail as AFG We handed Iraq to the Iranians after we toppled Saddam. We listed to polished, English speaking Iraqi ex pats & installed their gov of choice, told any one who worked in Saddam’s gov they couldn’t hold a job, including the military. This kicked off the insurgency 03-09.

One of my opponents destroyed her credibility by breaking her promise to drop out after Trump endorsed me.

And now she's given up on winning and has instead launched a kamikaze attack on my campaign to split the vote and re-elect Jaime Herrera Beutler.
1/3 While working for President Trump's campaign, I cast a tactical vote in the Democrat Primary for Bernie Sanders because I believed he was the weakest opponent for Trump.

I've never voted for a Democrat in a General Election in my life.

History doesn’t repeat but it rhymes.

What is happening in AFG is just a more brutal version of Iraq in 2011.

Iraqi gov gave Iranian militias the ability to conduct numerous attacks in the spring / summer of 11’ to show us what would happen if we stayed past 12’. We ignored Iranian control of the Iraqi gov b/c it went against the narrative that we built a functional gov/army.

As we are seeing now w/ the USG happy talk about our shared interests w/ the TB, these are lies to cover our failures & vulnerabilities.

@GOPLeader Kevin McCarthy is funding 5 of the 10 house impeachment voters, including @HerreraBeutler who offered to be the Dem’s star witness in the senate impeachment trail.

The establishment is slapping their base in the face & trying to silence us.

cnn.com/2021/07/16/pol… The GOP leadership has no respect for their base, they just want your money so they can win elections & capitulate once they are in power.

In 22’ we will break this cycle, America 1st is taking over the GOP.

Strong, independent American families are how we defeat the authoritarian oligarchs of the permeant ruling class.

We grow strong families by creating an environment that allows a family to thrive on 1 income. Get Americans off the gig economy, college debt , renter cycle. To do this we get on a war time footing to bring back our manufacturing, natural resources/energy industry. US companies willing to do their patriotic duty & onshore will be rewarded, those who don't will be tariffed out of the US market.

We are a nation not an economy.

Today is Memorial Day, the day our nation sets aside to honor those who’ve fallen while serving our nation in battle. It has a special meaning to me, a meaning that is shared by too many other Americans today who’ve lost someone close to them. For some it’s a father, a mother, a brother or sister, or perhaps someone they were not related to by blood but by life, a best friend.

Shannon eternal.

@TuckerCarlson exposed DOD’s toxic woke culture by pointing out DOD’s prioritization of issues that simply don’t win wars.

In the aftermath we’ve seen senior leaders trip over themselves to publicize their allegiance to woke culture. This has nothing to do w/ women in the mil/combat, women have proven themselves in these roles & are now rightfully included in every mil occupation.

Tucker gate is the culmination of the culture created by DOD’s stand down / which hunt for ppl w/ right wing ideology.

Antifa claimed to be rioting in support of justice/against Trump. Biden/Harris never acknowledged the violence and even enabled it. The election is over,Biden is President and the riots continue. The below images of Portland are from last summer. The next video is last night. It didn’t take long for the violence to spread 15 miles north into Vancouver, WA from Portland, OR. Violence and lawlessness is now common in Portland & Seattle. We can’t allow this in our district.

I’ve spoken out against Antifa since the beginning. Federal Law enforcement needs to treat Antifa like a terrorist organization and target leadership. Rep. Beutler worked against the allocation of federal resources to deal with Antifa/BLM terrorism. Rep. JHB joined the Democrat majority in supporting a “message bill” which implied that President Trump would resort to the “insurrection act.” It requires certifications to be made to Congress when Pres deploys active duty military during civil unrest. clerk.house.gov/Votes/2020141

All of the "gun control" legislation working its way through congress are infringements on the 2nd Amendment. The Left wants you locked down, dependent on the government, and disarmed. feinstein.senate.gov/public/index.c…

The new Atlantic piece on Trump is so damning that all of the statements attributed to Trump are from anonymous sources.

Trying to paint Trump as coward is just silly, we have not had a vet POTUS since HW Bush. All of the POTUSs who were old enough for Nam all got out of it. The sentiment that only dumb poor kids join the mil is a common middle - upper class feeling, post 9/11 it became rude to say out loud but its how many boomers feel.

As a gold star spouse & vet I don't care how a POTUS feels about me, I care about how he supports & employs us.

Memorial Day is always a rough one for many of us, I hope everyone has the chance to enjoy the weekend & reads a few stories about those who gave their lives for our nation.

Before Shan was killed we'd privately raise a glass to the fallen closest to us & share their stories. On Shan's behalf I'm going to share the stories of two of her friends who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Steven Daugherty KIA 16 JUL 07 in Iraq. Steve was SIGINT specialist, he was killed guiding SEAL teams in their pursuit of terrorist leaders.
