I write this as someone who has long worked across ideological divides to bring people together around shared values of health, freedom, and stewardship of the land. I have dedicated my life to helping heal the broken systems that shape our food and our future.

I write this with deep respect for the courage it takes to lead, and with a profound commitment to the principles that unite us: The right to nourish our families, the freedom to protect our health, and the responsibility to care for the land that sustains us all.

This is a call to action for leaders, for the MAHA community, and for every American who believes that a healthy future is worth building, and where necessary, fighting for!

If you were harmed by a product that caused cancer, infertility, or liver disease, would you expect to have the right to seek justice in a court of law? Most Americans would answer yes. No one understands that principle better than America’s farmers, who have long been both stewards of the land and, increasingly, frontline victims of chemical harm.

Day 598 of the genocide! More than 100-150 killed by US funded Israel every

In recent years, Donald Trump has frequently billed himself as a bringer of peace. During 2023 and 2024, as he campaigned for re-election, he declared at least 53 times that he would end the Ukraine War within 24 hours of taking office or even before that. Referring to peace for Ukraine before a gathering in Council Bluffs, Iowa in July 2023, he insisted: “I’ll get that done within 24 hours. Everyone says, ‘Oh, no, you can’t.’ Absolutely, I can. Absolutely I can.”

Trump has vowed to terminate other wars, as well. Promising to end the war in Gaza and “bring peace back to the Middle East,” Trump assured audiences that “we will return the world to peace.” Indeed, in his January 20, 2025 inaugural address, he proclaimed that “we will measure our success . . . by the wars we end.” And “my proudest legacy will be that of a peacemaker.”

As the NATO Parliamentary Assembly sat for its spring session, hundreds of protestors representing a broad coalition of the peace movement, workers, and environmentalists demonstrated just on the other side of the perimeter to protest, loudly, against the continued expansion of NATOs imperialist mission.

Demonstrators gathered early Saturday morning on the grassy lawn of the Dayton public library, closed to the public for the day to accommodate the NATO meeting. Outside hundreds gathered to hear speeches from the coalition of organizations behind the protests, including Veterans for Peace, the Ohio Peace Council, the Ohio Nuclear Free Network, and the Communist Party USA.

Just next door, separated by 12 foot high portable security fencing and dozens of heavily armed police, representatives and staff of the 32 nation NATO alliance were contained within a multi-block security perimeter in the Oregon riverfront district of downtown Dayton. Windows of the hotels looked down over the day's festivities and the protesters just outside the walls.
