Summary
I’m laying it out plain—politics isn’t a game. Candidates who run to serve are treated like punching bags, but I’ll always stick to facts and accountability.

When you step into political life, you stop being treated like a person. Candidates and public servants give up huge parts of their private lives, miss time with family, and spend months on the road. For the few of us who truly want to serve the people—not special interests—those sacrifices come with endless attacks. And more often than not, the attacks aren’t based on truth. They’re rooted in mistruths, conspiracy theories, and lies without proof.
I want to make something clear: if I say something, you can rest assured I’ve researched it. I rely on facts, logic, and pragmatism—not on what I think people want to hear. I’m not here to hand out sweet-sounding promises for a vote. I’m here to tell the truth, and I hope voters are wise enough to respect that and make their decisions accordingly.
Every claim I make, I can back up—with voting records, reputable newspapers, national news outlets, and public data. That’s how accountability works. If you don’t know how your congressman votes, 🗳️ that’s where the real problem lies. Why? Because it means no one is holding them accountable when they vote against your best interests.
This isn’t about political party. The same rules apply to everyone. If a Democrat, Republican, or Independent votes against you, against your family, against your future, then it’s on us as citizens to call them out. If we don’t, we’re the ones allowing it to continue.
Politics doesn’t have to be about tearing people down. It should be about honesty, accountability, and service. That’s what I stand for, and that’s how I’ll represent Missouri’s 4th District.
