Washington isn’t broken because of parties; it’s broken because of a corrupt system. That’s the powerful message from Jon Thorp, an Army veteran and independent candidate running for Congress in Tennessee’s 7th district.
After 20 years of refusing to vote for the “lesser of two evils,” Jon explains what finally pushed him to run. He exposes the “revolving door” that triggered this special election and offers a common-sense plan to fix Congress: a balanced budget, an end to foreign aid while America suffers, and a tax system that helps small businesses, not mega-corporations.
Hear why he believes independents are the only ones who can truly get big money out of politics.
