We cannot keep giving trillions of our tax dollars to Big Oil, Big Tech, and companies that continue to lay off workers and put us in danger. Period.

Same thing. I do support abolishing ICE, and I've said so in other videos and posts. I think the audience got the gist.

Stop the war. Defund ICE (and return immigration enforcement to the DOJ). Get money out of politics.

Unlike my opponent, I will never support legislation that funds another country's war crimes or punishes American businesses for divesting from Israel. My votes and my district are not for sale.

So many folks are at Etna's Zoning meeting tonight that they can't even close the doors. We're here fighting against a proposal that could lead to a data center popping up between homes and small businesses.

The Trump administration is using our tax dollars for propaganda and undermining the free market by taking ownership stakes in private companies, but Republicans think I'M a communist?

Sure, it's more than flowers. I used to be an assistant manager at Walmart. Big box store employees often have to collect SNAP benefits, etc because of low wages. My statement stands.

Operation Quiet Piggy was a success. Thanks to Ukraine's bombing of Russian data centers, there are fewer 'Americans' posting about leaving the Democratic party and I haven't been called a Communist all day.

I've thanked Ryan and the volunteers many times & made trips you never saw on the internet. But I also want to thank my friends in counties around the district who collected food and water for me to deliver, contributed to the Red Cross, and helped feed these families by supporting Hope For Crisis.

Meet Ryan, a dad and full-time worker who struggles to pay his family's bills but uses his spare time to help those affected by the historic floods two months ago. The people who have the least to offer shouldn't feel like they're the ones doing the most to help.

If America had more politicians like this, imagine the world we could live in. This gives me hope that not all is lost. Make sure you elect this guy, and all the other people like him. True power is understanding what is different, not hating it because it’s different.

We must end all U.S. aid to Israel until it has proven itself a government that can co-exist with its neighbors in the Middle East and aim for peace instead of power. My full statement on the third anniversary of October 7th:
On top, Gaza before the so-called war. On the bottom, Gaza this year, courtesy of Google Earth...Three years ago today, Hamas carried out an unforgettable and unforgivable terrorist attack in Israel that left over 1,200 people (civilians and soldiers) dead, and 251 held hostage.

It is a tragedy we must never forget. We must also understand the context of the days before and the tens of thousands of deaths that have followed.

Multiple outlets - both U.S. and international - have confirmed that the Israeli government had warnings October 7th was coming in advance. Some reports claim they had weeks to prevent this kind of attack and defend themselves.

Every country has a right to defend itself. They do not have a right to do so with our tax dollars. They do not have a right to kill thousands of women and children and call it self-defense.

Approximately 6,000 Palestinians entered Israel on October 7th, about two thirds were suspected members of Hamas. Over 74,000 Palestinians have been killed since. Homes, schools, hospitals, businesses, and basic utilities across the Gaza Strip are decimated while Israel stands strong.

There’s still more death and destruction to come.
This week, Israel announced that they've annihilated around 4,000 of those 6,000 invaders. That means the vast majority of the men, women, and children killed in Gaza these past three years were not responsible for the attack.

And on the opposite side, less than 1,000 Israeli citizens and service members have died since October 8, 2023.

It goes without saying that the more than 64,000 kids who've been murdered or injured in Israel’s genocide were not terrorists.

Shooting and bombing tens of thousands of civilians, some of them in bread lines, is not self-defense. Pointing civilians to “evacuation zones” then killing them when they arrive, is not self-defense.

I want to make clear that I believe antisemitism is a real problem the Jewish people face globally. Violence and discrimination against any group of people for existing is unacceptable, period.

But it is not antisemitic to criticize the actions of the Israeli government.

I do not blame the Jewish people for Israel murdering 35x more people than Hamas has in these three years.I do not blame the Jewish people for Israel extending their attacks into Yemen and Lebanon.

I blame the Israeli government, and I blame our own government for aiding and abetting Israel's crimes.

The attack on October 7, 2023, will always be remembered. Most of those accused of committing it are dead, as are approximately 74,000 other Gazans. Doctors. Nurses. Teachers. Journalists. Aid workers. Parents, grandparents, sons, and daughters. 

I hope we'll remember them, too, and never again let our own country have so much blood on its hands.

We can start by ending all U.S. aid to Israel until it has proven itself a government that can co-exist with its neighbors in the Middle East and aim for peace instead of power.

Alongside that, we must enforce a permanent ceasefire, provide humanitarian aid to Gaza, and ban ALL foreign lobbying groups like AIPAC. No foreign nation should have financial influence over our government or politicians like my opponent.

Actions speak louder than words. If your elected officials avoid talking to you, then they don't care about you or your needs. And without real representation, you are powerless. Vote them out. It's that simple.

Rep. Balderson is my only opponent on paper, but he's not the only one we're voting out next month. I'm running against nearly a dozen billionaires and over 300 corporate super PACs and lobbying groups that pay Balderson to work for them instead of representing us.

When they asked me to lend a hand yesterday, I was more than happy to help. Rev. Julia and volunteers like Wayne and Mia dedicate so much time and energy to keeping Market Street running. But with winter just around the corner, local produce will start to dwindle over the next few weeks.
