Honored that @Forbes called this “the kind of case pardons were made for.” I don’t take that as a trophy. I take it as someone finally acknowledging the whole record. Army combat veteran. Iraq, 2003-2004. Kentucky Veteran of the Year. Kentucky Veteran Hall of Fame. Continued service to Veterans throughout the COVID pandemic recognized in Congress by @SenRandPaul. We built our nonprofit Veteran’s Club Inc. Took no salary. The mission was free programs for veterans who were mentally hurting and suicide prevention. I went to trial because I could not plead to what I did not believe I did. I still believe that. I also went to prison. I came home and went back to serving Veterans & the Justice Impacted through reform. A pardon would not rewrite the past. It would tell the truth about a life that was turned upside down by a weaponized government under the Biden Admin.

It’s always bothered me that dental services aren’t offered to all Veterans at VA like medical services are. It’s just as important. I appreciate Dr. Kessler for collaborating with me to provide Veterans and their spouses thousands of dollars in free dental services today in honor of Veteran’s Day tomorrow.

Tomorrow on Veteran’s Day would be a great day to get this in front of @POTUS. I gave the best years of my life to this country both in uniform including Iraq and after service and am proud to have done it honorably. I have skin in the game. Criminalizing suicide prevention and trauma focused recovery for our heroes sets a bad precedent. Please review my petition.

Ego driven witch-hunts like this are one of the primary reasons we got smoked in the midterms.
Massie’s impeachment push is already sinking. He admits no other House Republican has committed to support it. Even Rep. Don Bacon, one of Hegseth’s sharpest GOP critics, says he’s “wrestling” with it and asks, “Do you impeach a guy for that?” The House has real work to do. This isn’t it. cbsnews.com/news/hegseth-pen…

At my federal sentencing, the judge said something that deserves attention. "I'm not worried about recidivism in this case." He also told me: "You're going to continue to do the exceptional work that you've done so far." " I've read every character letter and I believe that's who you are in large measure. " Those were the words of the federal judge who heard my case and sentenced me to prison. You don't see that everyday. I'm a disabled combat veteran who spent years volunteering to serve fellow veterans, first responders, and their families. I've served my sentence. I maintain my innocence. And I continue serving our nation's heroes today. I am seeking a presidential pardon from @realDonaldTrump My question is simple: What public interest is served by continuing to limit my opportunities to support my family, rebuild my financial security, and expand on the nationally recognized and award-winning work I have devoted my life to doing? My transcripts are proof and I love sharing them. My entire record deserves consideration.

Veterans are told the country will care for them after service, but the VA process is often designed to deny rather than approve. As a veteran, I am demanding accountability for those who sacrificed everything. Watch to see why the system is failing.

I helped build nationally recognized programs for veterans in America including inside America's jails and prisons. Years later due to that work, I went to federal prison myself. Follow for the parts of military service, executive leadership, veteran and criminal justice reform, and coming home that don’t fit in a headline.

I've been in rooms with generals, politicians, CEOs, and men sitting in jail cells. One thing I've learned is that the title someone carries tells you very little about their character.

November 11th is Veteran’s Day, @realDonaldTrump you have the power to restore justice for combat veterans who came home and kept serving. I am an Iraq War veteran who earned combat honor, including recognition for recapturing an escaped detainee, then founded a nonprofit to help other veterans with PTSD and suicide prevention. I took no salary. The prior DOJ still charged me under undefined VA rules that treated unpaid volunteer work as a crime. Please review my case and the cases of other deserving veterans caught in the same regulatory trap. Service should not be punished.

Replying to @C_3C_3
My blood is still boiling. Biden administration charge, convicted & jailed my friend @JeremyWHarrell with a felony for volunteering and helping Veterans. Jeremy is a disabled combat Veteran. See my pinned post

Standing your ground when the odds are stacked against you is a rare form of victory. It is not always about the outcome of the trial; sometimes, it is about keeping your integrity intact when you refuse to claim guilt for what you did not do. @DiamondandSilk

What’s done is done. It was a rude-awakening for Republicans. Now we learn, regroup, and focus on the issues. You only lose when you quit!

I would love to be able to vote today in these very important midterm elections. However, a weaponized Biden DOJ stripped that right from me. A right that I actually earned through my honorable service to this country in peace & in war.

And the indictment should have been dismissed, among other reasons, for depriving you of your 5th Amendment Due Process right to “fair warning” of what conduct the @DeptVetAffairs and @DOJRR47 recently decided was criminal without notice to anyone on earth, not even the professional VA disability advocates, VA employees, or VA disability bar, much less the “reasonable” slice of the nation’s citizenry. It’s a shame @TheJusticeDept has no conviction integrity unit to review colorable and manifestly meritorious claims of legal innocence, factual innocence, and investigative/prosecutorial/judicial misconduct. @SecVetAffairs @AGToddBlanche @PADAGMcCotter @ASGWoodward @AAGDuva @BasedMikeLee @tedcruz @willscharf
There has never been a criminal case in history where a disabled Veteran was prosecuted for too much unpaid volunteer work serving other Veterans. The VA disability system is notoriously complex, even for legal experts. Yet, the government prosecuted a case that lacked any legal precedent for volunteering. When justice relies on shifting definitions, the system is fundamentally broken. @DiamondandSilk

When the system empties your accounts and touches your family's livelihood, you have to fight back win or lose. I couldn’t afford counsel at that point so it just me and a boat load of case law. Representing yourself in federal court isn’t for the faint of heart.
