Over the last 50 years, $50 trillion has flowed from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%.

Why don't our political leaders fix it?

They work for the 1%. Many are the 1%.

It's time to elect an outsider.

Our founding fathers didn't just fight the British government. They fought the East India Company, a massive corporation with a monopoly on trade. The Boston Tea Party wasn't about tea. It was about economic tyranny.

I'm a capitalist, but what we have now isn't capitalism. Itโ€™s corporate socialism for the rich.

The corporations and the billionaires want to keep us divided so we don't notice that we're getting robbed.

When I was a kid, my dad worked one job and we had a house, a car, vacations most summers, and health insurance.

Try doing that on one income today. Something didn't just change. Something was changed. On purpose.

Tyson Foodsโ€™ boss sees a more than 50% pay raise in fiscal 2025 - Talk Business & Politics Tyson Foodsโ€™ CEO Donnie King and Chief Financial Officer Curt Calaway were paid well despite a more than $1 billion loss in the beef segment business, according to a Dec....

Tyson CEO Donnie King made $34.4 million in 2025. This is an increase of 51.3% from his compensation in 2024.

Don't believe these "woe-is-me" narratives from Tyson. They laid off 3,200 workers a WEEK before Thanksgiving. They upended a town.

Save your sympathy for the 3,200 workers in Lexington.

Under Ricketts and Pillen's "leadership," Nebraska's budget deficit has ballooned to $646 million.

Nebraska. Your leaders are failing you, and they're not even good at their jobs.

Reject school vouchers. Elect better leaders.

Pete Ricketts and Jim Pillen don't care about what the majority of Nebraskans really want. They don't care what you voted for. They want to impose THEIR agenda on Nebraska whether Nebraskans like it or not.

Last week, after pushback from Pillen, the Appropriations Committee reversed themselves and voted to put $3.5 million for vouchers BACK in the budget anyway. All while cutting $18 million from special education.

In January, Pillen and Ricketts tried to sneak $7 million for a new voucher program into the Department of Labor budget. Not the Department of Education. The Department of Labor.

The Appropriations Committee initially said no. That should have been the end of it right? Nope.

In 2024, Nebraska voters rejected private school vouchers by nearly 60%. Voters in 45 of 49 legislative districts said NO.

So did Jim Pillen and Pete Ricketts accept the will of the voters? Of course not.

Billionaires buy private islands. They buy politicians. They buy elections.

That's why I'm fighting to end Citizens United, pass strict contribution limits, and force full transparency on every dollar spent trying to influence your vote.

The people who actually build and fix things in this country are treated like dirt. The people who move money around on a spreadsheet get to write the rules for the rest of us. Something got completely flipped upside down somewhere along the way. We need to flip it back. Osborn 2026.

Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg are making billions off AI.

Your electric bill and water bill are going up because of their data centers.

Why are regular people and small businesses picking up the tab for the richest people on earth?

The same politicians who vote to cut rural hospital funding can magically always find the money when their billionaire donors need a tax cut.

There are families in Nebraska choosing between medicine and groceries this week. Meanwhile, the CEO of Eli Lilly made $29 million in 2024. Something is deeply wrong with our priorities as a country and Iโ€™m running to change them.

Their retirement pay is offset dollar-for-dollar by the amount of disability pay they receive. Some end up with no retirement benefits at all

The Major Richard Star Act would end this offset, giving service members the full benefits they deserve. This is the kind of bipartisan legislation I support

Under current law, veterans forced to medically retire due to combat or combat-related injuries do not receive their full retirement pay from the Department of Defense AND their full disability compensation from the VA.

When I talk about breaking up the monopolies controlling 85% of beefpacking, Republicans and Democrats agree with me. When I talk about protecting family-owned grocery stores from corporate giants like Dollar General, Republicans and Democrats agree with me.
