Donald Trump and his MAGA puppets, like my opponent Ryan Mackenzie, lie about healthcare for undocumented immigrants because they would rather not tell the truth about healthcare for American citizens.

Donald Trump claims gas is “under $2” - but here in PA, we’re staring at $3.14 a gallon.

We can SEE prices with our own eyes. Families feel it every time they fill up.

We deserve leaders who deal in facts and focus on solutions, not who gaslight us.

I'm running in one of the only toss-up seats that Biden won and is still held by the GOP.

We’re building an ambitious campaign. If everyone reading this chipped in just $9, we’d reach our goal tonight.

Can you please consider chipping in to help me fight back, defeat Mackenzie, and flip the House?

I'm Ryan Crosswell. I’ve spent my life in service to this country. When Trump tried to get the prosecutors in my section to use the DOJ, I stepped down.

Now, I'm stepping up. I’m running for Congress because it’s time to stand up against a handful of billionaires from taking our money and our data.

Trump’s DOJ dropped charges against Eric Adams. Now they ignore a $50K bribe by Tom Homan. Then they indict Comey on Trump’s Truth Social orders with a bogus filing.

Corruption affects everything: our economy, our kids’ health, our safety. It hurts every American.

When Trump tried to force the DOJ to drop the Adams case, I resigned. Now, I’m standing up for our rights and our values by running for Congress.

As we are six days away from our end-of-quarter campaign deadline. Can you chip in just $9 to help us reach our goal?

This is very troubling.

The 94 U.S. attorneys’ offices in the U.S. can't continue to build cases against officials who need to be investigated, let alone prosecute new cases on their own.

But Trump doesn't care; the DOJ is now his personal law firm.

The Justice Department Had 36 Lawyers Fighting Corruption Full-Time. Under Trump, It’s Down to Two.

The Public Integrity Section is the latest casualty in the administration’s attacks on Nixon-era good-government reforms.

I resigned from Trump's DOJ in Feb when I was pressured to drop NYC Mayor Adams' case.

NOTUS reports that since Trump took office, my section, Public Integrity, went from 36 people investigating public corruption to TWO.

Who benefits? Corrupt politicians.

House Republicans are rubber-stamping Trump's agenda, no matter the price tag on the American people.

I'm running in PA07, one of the only toss-up seats held by Republicans. Can you chip in $10, $25, $50, or any amount to help me fight back, defeat Mackenzie, and take back the House?

BREAKING: Ryan Mackenzie just voted to continue the attack on everyday Americans' healthcare; he prefers a government shutdown over working across the aisle for the good of the people in PA07.

When I get to Congress, I'll work for my constituents every day, not for Donald Trump.

NEWS: As a prosecutor, I've seen firsthand how corruption breaks the government. I'm proud to be the only candidate in PA07 signing onto End Citizens United’s campaign to UNRIG WASHINGTON:

Let's do it. 👇

✔️ Ban stock trading
✔️ Refuse corporate PAC money
✔️ Crack down on dark money

Jimmy Kimmel was canceled by the cowards at ABC after making fun of Donald Trump. Trump’s FCC used one man’s act of assassinating a political leader as a pretext to threaten free speech while gaslighting us that he was defending it.

Five brave officers from the Northern York Regional Police Department have been shot while serving a warrant, two are reportedly in critical condition.

My thoughts are with them, their families, and the entire community. Please keep them in your prayers.

Promise made, promise broken.

Food-at-home rose 0.6% from July to Aug—the biggest month-over-month increase since Aug '22. Meats, poultry, fish, and eggs rose 5.6%.

Whatever growth Donald Trump claims from his insane trade wars, it's us, everyday Americans, who are paying the price.

Today we remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001.

We honor the bravery of first responders, the resilience of survivors, and the unity of a nation that came together in the face of tragedy.

We will never forget.

The shooting of Charlie Kirk is dangerous and un-American.

American politics should NEVER be violent. We can debate passionately, but we must always resolve our differences peacefully.

Ed Martin - failed D.C. U.S. Attorney nominee and now head of DOJ’s “Weaponization Working Group” - proudly posed with Russell Brand, out on bail for rape charges.

Meanwhile DOJ slashes victim programs and sidelines survivors.

This is what corruption looks like.

Happy Labor Day! 🇺🇸

Today, we honor the hard work, dedication, and resilience of America’s workers - the backbone of our economy. I’m running to ensure every family has a fair shot, good wages, and the respect they deserve.

Let’s build a stronger future together.

As a Marine, I know that loving our country includes studying and learning from its mistakes so we don't repeat them.

Trump's attack on Smithsonian museums for teaching "how bad slavery was" is an embarrassment.

History hasn't been and won't be kind to Donald Trump's fake patriotism.

I’m running for Congress because I didn't lie down when Bove politicized my unit and won't sit idly by while Trump dismantles the rule of law.

Can you chip in $10, $25, or $50, and help us reach our end-of-month goal and flip one of the only GOP toss-ups?

Emil Bove has been confirmed.

When I testified about his complicity in Trump’s abuse of power, I spoke about my niece, Ryland. I'm thinking of her tonight.

Bove will likely be ruling on reproductive rights, executive power, and elections into her 30s.

What a disgrace.

🚨 ENDORSEMENT ALERT! 🚨

I’ve spent my life in service to this country as a Marine and a federal prosecutor. I stood up and resigned when Trump's DOJ politicized my unit.

I'm so proud that VoteVets, the largest group lifting up the voices of veterans, endorsed our campaign.

I prosecuted predators. My opponent Ryan Mackenzie PROTECTED them - voting to hide the Epstein files.

I resigned from DOJ when Trump bent the law for his friends. Now, Todd Blanche is meeting privately with Ghislaine Maxwell.

We deserve to know the truth.
RELEASE THE FILES.
