First-time R candidate on the 2026 AZ-05 R primary ballot (FEC ID H6AZ05182). Self-funded ($1.4M self-loan of $1.5M raised). MAGA-aligned, pledged to join House Freedom Caucus; positions himself as 'most effective pro-Trump' alternative (Trump endorsed Mark Lamb instead). 'Lifelong Christian' self-ID. Strongest evidenced positions: border (finish wall, end catch-and-release, mandatory E-Verify, end birthright for illegal immigrants), election integrity (Voter ID + citizenship, tighten mail-in, end ballot harvesting), anti-woke schools (real school choice, end indoctrination), 2A (oppose bans/registries/red-flag), oppose trans-drugs and surrogacy for single men / same-sex couples, pharma liability for prescribed drugs. Weak/silent on personhood (Hyde-style 'no taxpayer funding' not abolition), most economic-stewardship cells, Christian-liberty specifics, raw-milk / Big Ag, ATF / UN-treaty. DEVIATION: supported recent unilateral U.S. strikes on Iran without Article I framing while restraint-leaning on Ukraine.
