Just In…
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Allies of Ohio Republican Senate candidate Josh Mandel are calling for a boycott of a rally to be held by former President Donald Trump in the state after he endorsed Mandel’s primary rival, J.D. Vance .
A large field of Republican candidates had sought Trump’s endorsement before he ultimately gave it to Vance, a venture capitalist and author of Hillbilly Elegy , last week. Vance and several Republican House candidates also endorsed by Trump are scheduled to appear at a rally with the former president in Delaware County on Saturday.
Some Republicans in the state asked Trump to reconsider his endorsement, arguing in a letter that Vance is a “political chameleon” who called Trump and his supporters “racist” in 2016. In his Senate campaign, Vance has cast himself as a close ally to Trump.
In his endorsement of Vance, Trump acknowledged his previous criticism, saying it was not an “easy” decision for him to make.
“Like some others, J.D. Vance may have said some not-so-great things about me in the past, but he gets it now, and I have seen that in spades,” Trump said. “He is our best chance for victory in what could be a very tough race.”
But some Ohio Republicans argued Trump made the wrong call, marking one of his most contentious endorsements of the election cycle among his own party.
The group Ohio Value Voters, which endorsed Mandel, recently argued in a message to supporters that Republicans should boycott Trump’s rally in protest of the endorsement.The message calls the endorsement of Vance a “terrible decision” and blames unnamed people around the former president for it.“However, if you decide to attend, when President Trump introduces JD Vance, make your voices heard by letting Trump know, JD Vance is Wrong for Ohio,” the message says. “Booing is […]

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
