I served our country for eight years in the US Army as an Apache helicopter pilot. And now, I’m serving my country again. But this time, I’m fighting for your freedoms here at home.
Thanks for opening this email. This might be hard to believe, but less than 30% of conservatives who receive messages from me even open them!
These numbers make it tough for conservatives like me since we rely on texts, emails, letters, and phone calls to keep in touch with our supporters. So again, thanks so much for reading this!
You may not know me, but my name is John James.
U.S. Army Captain John James
I served our country for eight years in the US Army as an Apache helicopter pilot. I led two Apache platoons in combat operations in the Iraq War. I wouldn’t trade my service in the Army for anything, Friend. It’s there that I learned true leadership and the price of freedom. Truly, it was an honor to serve my country, Friend.
And now, I’m serving my country again. But this time, I’m fighting for your freedoms here at home. I decided to run for Congress in 2022 because I truly believe our nation needs veteran leadership.
After a hard-fought race, my Team and I won by LESS THAN 0.5%. Now, Democrats want me GONE. It doesn’t matter that I’m a patriotic veteran and father of three; the Left can’t stand me because I’m an unapologetic conservative!
My colleague and Retired Navy SEAL, Derrick Van Orden, knows my situation because he’s in a very similar one himself. He narrowly flipped a seat Democrats had held for 26 years, so you’d better believe the Left is coming for his head this year too!
Navy SEAL Senior Chief Derrick Van Orden
Derrick and I know we have tough battles ahead of us. We’re fighting tooth and nail to defend these seats and protect the House Majority; losing simply isn’t an option.
Derrick and I are running campaigns FOR the people and BY the people. Liberal billionaires and coastal elites aren’t bankrolling us; we’re counting on grassroots conservatives to help us win! And the truth is, without support from every conservative reading this message, I don’t know how we’re going to keep up with the millions and millions of dollars the Democrats are stacking against us, Friend!
My story is simple. I was raised in rural poverty by a single mother on food stamps. At 18, I joined the Navy. After 26 years of service and 5 combat tours, I retired as a Navy SEAL Senior Chief. Now, I’m serving as a first-term Congressman for Wisconsin’s 3rd District.
I’m not a swamp-dwelling politician – I don’t have support from mega-donors or Super PACs. I’m just like you – a concerned American who loves this nation and will always do the right thing.
USE OF DERRICK VAN ORDEN'S MILITARY RANK, JOB TITLES AND PHOTOGRAPHS IN UNIFORM DOES NOT IMPLY ENDORSEMENT BY THE DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY OR THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE.
