Hey there. I want to share some quick thoughts re: the government shutdown.

Here’s the deal: Instead of negotiating in good faith with Democrats — the responsible party that actually proposed a measure to keep the government running and fund our healthcare system — Mike Johnson is bending the knee to Donald Trump.

Government is a game of give-and-take. The GOP wants all-or-nothing. Refusing to negotiate is not leadership: It’s recklessness, pure and simple.

The media and the GOP would have you believe Trump is some kind of unstoppable force. That’s a lie: He's deeply unpopular , and we should treat him that way.

Until Mike Johnson calls the House to session for a real negotiation, gridlock and stalemate will continue and Americans will pay the price.

For now, there’s only one option: resist .

If you’re ready to defend American freedom, I hope you’ll stand with me.

I’ll be in touch,
