Our veterans fought for us. They shouldn’t have to fight claim sharks, too. Jack Bergman’s H.R. 3132 puts those companies' interests ahead of our vets. Callie Barr will stand up for veterans and protect the benefits they earned. It's time to fire Jack Bergman.

Trump announces that the U.S. will buy Russian oil. This is just a few weeks after Trump signed the Lindsey Graham Russia Sanctions bill, which authorized him to place 100% tariffs on countries that are the biggest importers of Russian oil/gas. Are we going to tariff ourselves now?

Donald Trump is betraying Ukraine and the USA and violating his own Russian sanctions to buy oil from Russia because he’s terrified of losing the midterms because he’s in the Epstein Files over a million times.
