Official Profile
Religion: Not stated (respects all faiths; personal religion not publicly confirmed)
Background: Flint native, U.S. Navy veteran and former federal law-enforcement officer (watch commander at Guantanamo Bay). Trump-aligned 'America First' first-time candidate; endorsed by Reps. Bergman, Huizenga, and James (2026-02). Signed U.S. Term Limits pledge.
Candidacy CURRENT: active R candidate in the 2026-08-04 MI-08 primary vs. Alfred Lemmo (Ballotpedia; FEC C00675256; campaign news page 2026-02-04). Scored from campaign Issues content. HARD transgender stance: 'radical gender ideology of boys becoming girls, using girls' bathrooms, and playing girls' sports has got to stop' -> biblical_marriage q2 TRUE and q4 TRUE. HARD border: 'wholeheartedly supports President Trump's efforts to deport illegal immigrants, close the border' -> border_immigration q0 TRUE and q1 TRUE. CROSS-PRESSURE (deviation): self-described 'pro-life' but explicitly PRO-IVF (daughter conceived via IVF) and supports rape/incest/life exceptions -> contrary to opposing IVF embryo discard and to personhood-from-conception, so sanctity_of_life q2 FALSE; q0/q1 left null (does not meet the personhood/abolition bar). Same-sex marriage, elections, guns specifics, religious liberty, economy specifics (CBDC/Fed/budget/ESG), foreign-policy-restraint cells: NO EVIDENCE on those specific cells -> null (his pro-Israel/anti-Iran posture does not map onto the restraint rubric).
Candidate affirms life begins at conception and personhood from conception
FALSE (0)
i 1 claim
Describes himself as pro-life but carves out exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the mother — stopping short of a life-at-conception personhood position, which the rubric requires for a True score on this question.
Openly supports IVF, calling it 'the blessing of IVF' and noting that his daughter Jayla was conceived through the procedure — incompatible with the rubric's anti-embryonic/IVF-discard standard.
A self-described 'committed America First Republican' who criticizes his Democratic opponent's 'dangerous and expensive radical open-border' policies and pledges strong ICE and Border Patrol enforcement to remove illegal immigrants.
