I was raised on dirt roads and early mornings, forged in uniform, and softened only where it counts: as a mother. Everything I am, I earned.
I was born and raised in the Oregon countryside, where animals don't care if you're tired and the work gets done before you eat. Raising livestock taught me responsibility before I could spell it. Western values weren't a slogan in our house. They were how we lived: your word means something, you take care of what's yours, and you finish what you start.
In 2017 I left home for the military and became one of the first 200 female combat engineers. Nobody handed me that title. I carried my own weight and then some. The training gave me skills I'll carry for the rest of my life. It also taught me hard lessons, the kind that break you down to the studs so you can rebuild stronger. I learned that discipline outlasts motivation, and that fear only wins if you let it make the decision.
In 2021 I became a mother, and it changed my mission. The same woman who learned to stand her ground had to learn patience. The hands that were trained for hard work learned to nurture. My child is the reason I fight for the future I do. Strength and tenderness aren't opposites. Motherhood showed me they're the same love, pointed in different directions.
I took off my uniform in 2021, but the oath never came off with it. I watched my country change, and I didn't like what I was seeing. Then Charlie Kirk was killed, a man murdered for speaking his mind, and something in me refused to stay quiet another day. That's when I started reporting. I found my next fight, and I've had a loud voice from the very beginning. I'm not here because it's easy or safe. I'm here because if people like me stay silent, the silence wins.
My heritage is Nordic and English, and the Nordic runs strong in me: stubborn, steady and built for hard winters. I come from people who didn't quit when it got cold. Neither do I.
If life has knocked you down, get up anyway. Faith will carry you where your strength runs out. Stand up. Speak up. Never back down.
I served this country in uniform. Now I serve it with my voice. When they killed a man for speaking, they thought the rest of us would go quiet. They were wrong. These are the convictions I carry into every report, every rally and every post.
Before government, before popularity, before everything. Faith belongs in public life, not hidden away.
Strong families build strong nations. Parents, not institutions, get the final say in raising their children.
No one should pay for their words with their life, their job or their platform. Disagree with me openly. That's freedom, and I'll defend it for you too.
Less control from the top, more responsibility from each of us. Free people can run their own lives.
I'm proud of where I come from, its traditions and its grit, and everyone should be free to honor their own.
Faith and strength aren't opposites. I want women to stop shrinking and start leading.
I was trained to run toward the hard thing. I'm raising a child who will inherit whatever we leave behind. So I will keep showing up, keep reporting and keep speaking the truth as I see it, out loud, until my last breath. If you've been waiting for permission to stand up, this is it.
Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid.Joshua 1:9
Real conversations with the people at the center of the fight. I ask the questions, they tell their story, and you hear it in their own words.
Former Mesa County, Colorado clerk
One of the most talked-about names in the fight over election integrity. Tina was convicted in 2024 after a breach of her county's voting system and sentenced to nine years. She has always said she was protecting election records. After her sentence was cut in half and she was released in June 2026, I sat down with her to hear her story in her own words.
January 6 pardon recipient · Condemned USA
The Texan with the blue megaphone on the Capitol steps on January 6, 2021. Treniss served his sentence, was pardoned in January 2025, and has kept fighting for other January 6 defendants through Condemned USA. We talked about what he went through and why he keeps going.

A father's fight for his daughter. In part one, Tyler tells the story of Sahara, the 5-year-old who was taken from him in 2010, and why he refused to let her killer walk free. In part two, we celebrate the victory: in June 2026 the parole board denied release.
I talked with a member of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association about Initiative Petition 28, the measure opponents said would have outlawed hunting, fishing, raising livestock and rodeo across Oregon. What it would have meant for ranchers and rural families, and why they fought it. In July 2026 it failed to qualify for the ballot.

A live conversation with Lexie J about sexual assault against women in the military. As a woman who served, this one is personal. It's a hard topic, and it's one that needs to be talked about out loud.

Patriots, fighters and families who refused to stay quiet. These are some of the people I've had the honor to stand beside, interview and fight alongside.
When the No Kings protest came to Dallas, I was on the ground reporting alongside Alex Stein, James Klug and Enrique Tarrio. Cameras rolling, asking the questions nobody else would.
Tyler is an Oregon father who lived every parent's worst nightmare. On July 9, 2010, his 5-year-old daughter Sahara was raped and murdered by a 16-year-old. Her killer was sentenced to life, but under Oregon's SB 1008 juvenile sentencing law and a commutation from former Gov. Kate Brown, he became eligible for parole after 15 years.
Tyler refused to let his little girl be forgotten. He launched the Be Sahara's Voice campaign, took it to social media and national news, and fought to keep her killer behind bars. In June 2026, the parole board denied his release. Standing beside a father who turned the worst day of his life into a fight for justice is something I will never forget.
I met Chad Caton in the middle of the 2025 Portland ICE protests. Night after night, together with so many others who showed up, we kept the pressure on until the antifa camp was torn down and Portland PD started doing their job again. Proof of what ordinary people can do when they refuse to look away. Here we are with Enrique Tarrio.
Chad has been an amazing mentor from the very start. When I was new and loud and still learning where to aim that voice, he saw something in me worth investing in. He taught me how to stay steady when things get heated, how to hold the line without losing myself, and that real strength is knowing why you're standing there. Every new fighter needs someone who believes in them before the world does. For me, that was Chad. A lot of who I am in this fight, I owe to him.
At the Gathering of the Eagles I sat down for an interview with Treniss Evans. Treniss is the Texan who stood on the Capitol steps on January 6, 2021 with a bright blue megaphone. He was charged, served his sentence, and was among the roughly 1,500 people President Trump pardoned in January 2025. Through Condemned USA, he has kept fighting for other January 6 defendants.
Tina Peters is the former Mesa County, Colorado clerk who became one of the most talked-about names in the fight over election integrity. After she let an outsider copy her county's voting system hard drive, she was convicted in 2024 and sentenced to nine years in prison. She has always said she was acting to protect election records.
In 2026 a Colorado appeals court ruled that her sentence improperly weighed her protected speech and beliefs. Gov. Jared Polis cut it in half, and she walked out of prison that June. I was honored to interview her at the Gathering of the Eagles and hear her story in her own words.
