JOHN,

I’m just gonna come right out and say it: Republicans are asleep at the switch.

I’m relieved Matt Van Epps won yesterday’s special election, but it was too close for comfort. One small gust of wind and we could have sent a homegrown Marxist to represent Middle Tennessee in Congress.

>>> If this is an indicator of what’s to come in 2026, Republicans could be in trouble. The best way you can help is to chip in a few dollars to my campaign for reelection.

Here’s the part nobody wants to talk about: The Democrat who almost took this race was educated in Knoxville—my hometown. She wasn’t shipped in from New York or California, like they used to be.

Midterms are always scary for the party in power. That’s nothing new.

But last night was a warning shot from Democrats. They’re fired up, mobilized, and ready to stick it to us. And if we don’t get some gumption, we’re in big trouble.

So, let’s make a deal, JOHN.

I’ll keep fighting to keep Tennessee red, protect our conservative values, and push President Trump’s America First agenda, if you promise to back me up.

Can I count on you to rush a donation today? $10, $25, or even $50 will help me hold the line and keep Congress in conservative hands.

We can do this. Let’s keep fighting the good fight!
