Know who you are when you support the GOP…
No more pretense or excuses. Trump and his team have made the white supremacist foundations of this project explicit and clear.
If you enable this you need to face who and what you are. But you can always choose another way.

Beth Macy never thought she would run for Congress. But she knows democracy is on the line and couldn't resist the pleas of those who believe she's the only candidate who can beat the awful Ben Cline.
And if she flips this red seat in western Virginia, no more Speaker Johnson.
