Core Principles

What the movement stands for.

Truth before money. People before politics. Country before party.

1

End the Influence of Big Money in Politics

Strict campaign finance reform, transparent political funding, limits on outside influence, and small-dollar citizen participation.

Maximum donation: $25
2

Radical Transparency in Government

Plain-language legislation, transparent spending, public accountability, strong anti-corruption enforcement, and open disclosure of funding and lobbying.

Truth should never hide behind theater.
3

Economic Fairness and Opportunity

Americans who work hard should be able to afford housing, raise families, access healthcare, and retire with dignity.

Small business. Skilled trades. Responsible growth.
4

Restore Civility and National Unity

Division has become a business model in American politics. We reject constant outrage, manufactured hatred, and political tribalism.

Disagreement does not have to mean enemies.
5

Government Should Serve Citizens, Not Itself

Government exists to serve the public, not political careers. We support ethical accountability, simpler processes, and reforms that reduce waste.

Public service, not self-service.
6

Protect Freedom of Thought and Expression

Free speech and open dialogue are essential to a healthy society. We support civil debate, intellectual honesty, and peaceful disagreement.

Americans should speak openly without fear.
Our Commitment

We will not promise perfection.

We will promise honesty.

We believe truth matters. We believe ordinary citizens matter. And we believe America works best when government answers to the people instead of powerful interests.

Truth before money.People before politics.Country before party.

Chchchchanges…

Today I went to the 2026 Greensboro Pride Festival, and I had one of those experiences that makes you stop and reconsider what you think you know about people. I came here to continue my 100-person interview project for the Truth Party. Four questions. Complete strangers. No political litmus test. No right answers. No wrong […]

Take Pride

Today is Pride Day in Greensboro, and downtown is going to be filled with people, flags, music and celebration. And I think that’s great. But it got me thinking: Why did we ever need Pride in the first place? We wrote, “All men are created equal.” Great sentence. Apparently, we’ve spent the next 250 years […]

The Reflecting Pool, Trump?

Okay, I have a question. Where’s Donald Trump? Because something pretty interesting just happened. Remember the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool? The thing sitting between Abraham Lincoln and the Washington Monument? One of the most recognizable pieces of real estate in the United States? Well, we spent millions of dollars renovating it. Then the damn thing […]
