Finance Reports
Campaign committee registered; no periodic FEC report on file yet
Checked 2026-09-24: principal campaign committee C00951111 (candidate ID H6TN05330) has no periodic Form 3 report (quarterly or pre-/post-election) covering 2025–26 in the FEC electronic-filing list or the FEC image index, so no receipts, spending or cash on hand have been reported yet. A committee registered after June 30 files its first report with the October Quarterly (due Oct 15, 2026).

In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“Not at all. He's precluded by the 22nd Amendment. It is important to note, the 22A is not a punishment on a person who has been president for 2 terms, it is an express right of the people to protect against corruption. It is my 22A right that no one can be president for more than 2 terms.”
“Too strict. We need immigrants to survive.”
“I have no issues taxing the incredibly wealthy to alleviate the issues we're currently facing. Also, we need to end the tariffs, as they are just a tax on Americans.”
“No. War requires careful planning. No one from this administration can say why we went to war, or what a desirable outcome would be. We are markedly worse off now, and the only hope is we can get a deal similar to the one trump ended when he took office the first time. There is no 'win' here.”
“No. Originally, I was running against Ogles. Ogles was one of the candidates brought in to destroy Nashville's voice in the previous round of gerrymandering, now he's going to attempt to do the same to Memphis.”
