[link removed] [[link removed]]I will never forget January 6, 2021.
I was splitting firewood on the farm while listening to the radio. I rushed inside to the television and watched a violent mob storm the U.S. Capitol, assault police officers, batter down doors, shatter windows, and search for members of Congress and the Vice President to take hostage to reverse the results of a fair and lawful election. Our democracy was under attack.
My son, who was deployed to the Middle East, called. "How can we protect America from adversaries abroad when it looks like we are in a civil war at home?" he asked. "The world is watching.”
That’s when I decided to run for Congress.
Let’s be clear, January 6th was an organized assault on our democracy. It was mob rule. An insurrection. An attempted violent takeover of government and subversion of the Constitution. And it was all based on lies. Big Lies. The same people who told those lies a year ago are still at it today. Andy Harris, the guy I’m running against, is one of them. His actions are shameful.
We can’t afford to let these insurrectionists win. We can’t afford their attempts to whitewash and cover up what happened on January 6th. We can’t afford to ignore the Constitution, suppress votes, and allow these terrorists to incite violence to stay in power. We must continue to investigate, prosecute, and hold accountable the people who fomented the attack. We must save our democracy.
Our future is uncertain. It is the time to choose. Chaos or order, conspiracies or truth, authoritarianism or democracy. January 6, 2021, may only be the first attempt at a coup if Donald Trump runs again - especially if his enablers, like Harris, remain in power.
I am the pro-democracy candidate who will uphold the Constitution, the integrity of our elections, and the sanctity of our union. On the anniversary of the most disgraceful event in our history, the day when we realized how truly fragile our democratic institutions have become, please help me fight for America [[link removed]] .
