  • On January 6th Insurrection and Aftermath.
  • The high inflation in the country has pushed the cost of living.
  • High Gas Prices Aftermath Russia-Ukraine War.

  • Billions are being spent on Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan while Americans are struggling. 
  • A convicted felon is still not in prison and able to do anything due to privilege. 
  • They have to choose between an Old Man and a Con Man.
  • People need a solution to the Southern Border. 
  • The current judiciary is the most conservative ever and their agenda is pretty much clear.
  • The president and ex-President are now going to have immunity for certain actions. 
  • They need an alternative to both the Presidential candidates. 
  • Biden is too old and Trump is always lying.
