1776 Coalition Sponsored 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!

Schumer told colleagues that the briefing would inform senators about “how we use and invest in AI to protect national security, and learn what our enemies are doing in AI.”
