Independent Grassroots Fighting Campaign!

This is what it takes to beat a 20 yr. corrupt career politician-member of the Swamp in Washington D.C.-Distant Daytonian Mike Turner!

Protesting Politicians,

Sorry I’m not Sorry!

Protesting local Dayton Democratic Leadership as they choose delegates for Joe Biden’s National Convention. My Independent campaign is willing to organize and stand up to the corrupt 2 party system that promotes endless wars around the world.

East Palestine, Ohio

toxic train derailment-

Chemicals in the Water!

I can confirm in this video chemicals in the water 1 month after the toxic train derailment disaster in East Palestine, Ohio February 2023. 1 year later the same is still true. Corruption from Trump and Biden Governments and the State of Ohio are to blame!

I created this nationwide Pledge for any member of Congress to “Put Up or Shut Up” when it comes to Israel/Palestine. Within the first month of creation, 20 campaigns for Congress in 2024 signed onto the pledge!

I believe in investing in the working class of this country “First” rather than giving that money away to ruthless Middle Eastern Governments that want to drag the U.S. into WW3.

Standing up to the War Machine in Washington D.C.!

Much Needed Solutions

  • End Homelessness by building tiny homes in every major city and refurbish existing houses to fully house EVERYONE

  • Reform our Education System to better prepare our children for the REAL WORLD… in areas such as the Law, Money Management, Nutrition, Emotional Intelligence, How to get Elected for public office, Everyday Life Skills/Trades

  • Nationalize the Railroads to ensure safety regulations are abided by and profits are returned to the American People

  • Invest in new group homes & foster care system to provide the highest quality care for our nations most at risk children

  • Congress needs to form Commissions to investigate the many crimes and coverups our Government has been involved in such as with Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan Wars, Iran/Contra, Poisoning of Flint Michigan’s water, East Palestine Train Derailment victims, Camp LeJeune poisoning and Military coverup of victims, 9/11 First Responders victims, our Veterans health problems from burn pits and Agent Orange exposure, Wall St. housing crash 2008, and denial of Universal Emergency Healthcare during Pandemic to name a few!

  • Immigration- Hire hundreds of new judges to process cases of people arriving at the border so their cases can be quickly decided, secure the border with drones and surveillance-No Continuous Thousand Mile Wall, and provide incentives in our employment system, border policy, and citizenship process to go the legal route rather the choosing the illegal one.
