<p style="font-weight: 400;">A shadowy campaign that has recruited retired or disabled Trump supporters to challenge GOP House incumbents and split the GOP vote so Democrats can take back the House has been exposed.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">The Patriots Run Project ran a “series of pro-Trump pages and ran ads that used apocalyptic rhetoric to attack establishment politicians in both parties while urging conservatives to run in November,” the Associated Press <a href="https://apnews.com/article/patriots-run-project-congress-candidates-trump-democrats-republicans-election-d29b438f46589bd7ecced80ac64e93a4">reported</a>, noting, “For the past year, the group has recruited Trump supporters to run as independent candidates in key swing districts where they could siphon votes from Republicans.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“We need American Patriots like YOU to stand for freedom with President Trump and take back control from the globalist elites by running for office,” one ad stated.</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">Two of the candidates were recruited in Iowa, while candidates in Nebraska, Montana, Virginia, and Minnesota were also targeted.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“All six recruits described themselves as retired, disabled—or both,” AP noted. “In at least three races, petition signatures to qualify for the ballot were circulated by a Nevada company that works closely with the Democratic consulting firm Sole Strategies, according to documents,” AP stated.<strong> “</strong>Sole Strategies has earned nearly $1.8 million over the past four years working primarily for Democratic candidates and causes, including numerous Democratic House members and candidates.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">One Iowa candidate, Joe Wiederien, who had never run for office, had endured a stroke that left him unable to drive, and he could not vote for a time because of a felony conviction.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">“At that time I was thinking, well, it would be nice to be in Congress and get to work with President Trump,” Wiederien, 54, said. “It looks like it’s a dirty trick now.” Wiederien later withdrew his candidacy, saying he’d been manipulated, and now wants an investigation.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">First-term Republican Rep. Zach Nunn said on Monday that the plot was “to steal this election. I am outraged to see anyone prey on hardworking Iowans or deceive voters.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Former Justice Department official Jason Torchinsky stated, “Given what is described, there could be a wide variety of federal and state criminal violations.”</p>
