  • In my last post about issues. I addressed every point of my opponent's issues in the comments. Now it's my turn. We have knocked thousands of doors in this district to meet people where THEY are! This is what they have told me they are concerned about. 1) Affordability: People can’t afford the basic needs to live. The largest food insecurity in the state is in Harrison Michigan. The 100th district includes some of the poorest areas of the state. Gas prices, groceries, utilities, insurance, ren

  • For three years we’ve knocked thousands of doors, and my “important issues” come directly from those conversations. Check the comments for my response to my opponent’s list. I hope this makes clear why I’m the strongest candidate to tackle the challenges facing Michigan’s 100th District. While he follows the MAGA playbook for politicians, I’m going to work to fix what’s actually impacting our district. Be Cool Vote Ruell!

  • Thank you to everyone that joined us at the MiCare townhall last night. Thank you to AAUW for hosting Representative Carrie Rheingans as she educated us on this piece of legislation. The thoughtful questions and conversation showed how much healthcare matters to our neighbors.

  • We now have an industry where the people who understand it better than anyone else are openly asking the government to regulate them. That’s how serious AI has become. Dario Amodei of Anthropic says the following: 1. Slow down AI development before it outruns human control.

The industry has been dishonest abou

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
