I’m running because life has gotten too expensive, too unstable, and too rigged in favor of people who already have money and power.

I’m not a career politician. I’m a working man. I believe government should do something very simple: make sure regular people are not getting screwed over by corporations, speculators, monopolies, and politicians who serve everyone except the public.

I’m not interested in culture-war nonsense or empty consultant slogans. I care about whether people can afford a home, afford healthcare, keep more of what they earn, and trust that the rules apply to the powerful too.

Make Life Affordable Again

For too many people, the basics of life have become a constant financial strain. Housing costs too much. Healthcare costs too much. Everyday goods cost too much. And too often, the people making those decisions are insulated from the consequences.

I believe government should focus first on lowering the cost of living and making everyday life more stable for working people.

That means taking on the industries and policies that are driving up costs, instead of pretending this is all just some natural force nobody can control.

Housing Should Be for People

We do not just have a housing shortage problem. We have an empty house problem.

When homes are treated like investment vehicles instead of places for people to live, families lose. Renters lose. First-time buyers lose. Entire communities lose.

I support:

Cracking down hard on short-term rentals that take housing off the market.

Banning rent-fixing software.

Preventing major rent hikes right after property sales.

Banning foreign corporate ownership of single-family homes.

Incentivizing homes as primary residences, not speculative assets.

Tax relief for first-time homebuyers.

Reforming zoning and lot-size rules that make housing artificially scarce.

Ending the financial games that turned mortgages into gambling chips.

Houses are for families, not portfolios.

Tariffs Are a Tax on Americans

Donald Trump loves to talk about tariffs like they’re some magic weapon. In practice, they usually work like a tax that gets passed on to American consumers.

Businesses pay more to bring goods in. Then they raise prices. And too often, they raise prices even more than the tariff itself and blame the whole thing on trade policy.

That is not economic patriotism. That is a hidden cost on working people.

I oppose broad, reckless tariff policy that raises prices, hurts farmers through retaliation, and punishes families at the checkout line. Trade policy should be strategic, targeted, and designed around American consumers, not political theater.

Take On Corporate Power

A lot of what’s broken in this country comes back to the same problem: too much power concentrated in the hands of corporations and executives who face no real consequences.

I believe we need a government that is willing to stand up to:

Corporate price manipulation

Monopoly behavior

Executive greed

Financial engineering that benefits shareholders while hollowing out real businesses

Business models built on exploitation instead of production

I support reforms that reward real investment, real research and development, real job creation, and real productive work, not just stock games and extraction.

Ban Congressional Stock Trading

Public office should not be a side hustle.

If you are elected to serve the public, you should not be making trades based on privileged access, and neither should your immediate family. That should be obvious.

I support banning stock trading by elected officials and their families, except through truly blind, conflict-resistant investment structures.

The people writing the rules should not be personally betting on them.

Healthcare Should Be a Guarantee

Healthcare should not be a luxury good. It should not be tied to luck, job status, or whether an insurance company thinks you are worth covering.

I support universal healthcare. I believe a stronger safety net makes the country freer, not weaker. People are more willing to start businesses, change jobs, take risks, and build better lives when one medical crisis cannot destroy them.

Healthcare is not just a moral issue. It is an economic issue too.

Veterans Deserve Better

If this country is going to ask people to serve, it should not abandon them afterward.

Veterans should be able to get the care they need without being trapped in a system that is too narrow, too slow, or too broken to meet the moment. The goal should be universal healthcare for everyone, but at the absolute minimum, veterans should have far broader access to care outside the VA system.

That is not generosity. That is obligation.

Enforce the Law Top to Bottom

Too often in America, the law comes down hardest on the people with the least power.

Ordinary people get humiliated, over-policed, and punished. Meanwhile, executives, financial actors, and powerful institutions that do massive harm often walk away untouched.

That is backwards.

I believe law enforcement and regulation should focus far more on:

Wage theft

Corporate fraud

Financial misconduct

Pollution and environmental crimes

Abuse by powerful institutions

If the rules only apply downward, then we do not really have equal justice.

Protect Democracy

I believe in democracy, and I do not mean that as a slogan.

There is a growing strain of the super elite that openly distrusts ordinary people and increasingly treats democracy itself like an inconvenience.

If your political philosophy boils down to “let billionaires and power brokers decide what’s best,” then you do not have a democracy problem. You have a superiority complex.

I believe power should stay with the public. I believe donor networks and elite influence should be scrutinized. And I believe elected leaders should persuade voters, not try to design a system that gets around them.

Defend Personal Freedom

I believe people should have broad freedom to live their lives as they choose, so long as they are not harming other people, public health, or the environment.

That includes reproductive freedom. That includes personal privacy. That includes the basic principle that government should not exist to police people’s private lives for the benefit of political grandstanding.

I also reject the idea that a woman’s value is tied to whether she has children. That kind of thinking is invasive, outdated, and degrading.

Support Lawful Gun Ownership and Stronger Background Checks

I do not support performative politics on guns. I support lawful gun ownership, and I support stronger background checks.

Those positions are not contradictory. They are common sense.

If someone is responsible and law-abiding, their rights should be respected. If someone is dangerous, the law should take that seriously.

Build Things Again

We need a country that makes, repairs, recycles, builds, and invents again.

That includes support for large-scale electronics recycling and material recovery, not just because it protects the environment, but because it creates jobs and reduces dependence on foreign supply chains for reusable materials.

We should be investing in useful work that strengthens communities and national resilience, not just rewarding whatever makes the fastest speculative return.

Protect Privacy and Safety

People should not have to live in fear because their home address is easy to find online.

I support stronger protections against data-broker abuse, searchable address systems, and other tools that make stalking, harassment, and intimidation easier.

Public transparency matters. But there is a difference between transparency and handing dangerous people a roadmap.

My Politics, Plainly

I’m pro-worker.

I’m anti-corruption.

I’m anti-monopoly.

I’m anti-tariff.

I’m pro-democracy.

I’m pro-freedom.

I’m pro-affordability.

I believe government should work for the people who actually keep this country running.

Not the consultants.

Not the lobbyists.

Not the corporations.

Not the people treating your rent, your groceries, and your future like numbers on a spreadsheet.
