STOP THE RADICAL LEFT FROM TAKING OVER IN 2026

As a retired Marine Corps General with nearly 50 years of service to the USA, I’m telling you to never underestimate our adversary. Contrary to media reports, they’ve got a plan to sabotage GOP efforts and distract you. They want you to abandon America’s Golden Age. Don’t let them succeed. Stand with me, Jack Bergman, and let’s defeat the left on Capitol Hill!

Abbott stated in a press release that Texas and Taiwan were important economic partners who sought to drive innovation into the future. “Today, we are announcing two initiatives that will strengthen our economic relationship and bring unprecedented prosperity to our two peoples. The two initiatives, an economic agreement and the new State of Texas Taiwan Office, will strengthen the economic relationship and cultural relationship between Texas & Taiwan. We will work together to ensure that our people are free and have the opportunity to prosper in the rapidly growing economies of 21st Century.”
