  • McBride loves to blame others for the Iran War. In fact, McBride shares the blame for the war! Voted for a congressional debate and for an up or down vote on a declaration of war not before the war started but only 5 days after the US started bombing Iran in June 2025. Despite the destruction of most buildings in Gaza and the slaughter of tens of thousands of Palestinians - probably mostly civilians - and probably in excess of 100,000 deaths - after 1 year of the Gaza War - what Amnesty Inte

  • Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result? That's not leadership. That's stupidity. For decades, Washington has run the same playbook in the Middle East. More wars. More money. More promises of peace that never come. And every time, we're told this time will be different. It's time to try something new. My foreign policy is built to deliver results: real diplomacy, a real path to a two-state solution, an end to the endless wars, and Congress, not one person, deciding

  • Socialism for the fat cats. Socialism for you. Either way, you pay. On October 19, McBride promised affordable housing, far better health care for every American, and a share of the "new prosperity" from future technology. Sounds nice. Here's who's pulling the strings. McBride has taken $547,400 from political action committees, including PACs for big banks and a drug company. McBride’s promises amount to socialism at the top: bailouts, subsidies and monopolies for the well-connected. Then co

  • They said I couldn't win the primary. On September 15, Main Street proved them wrong. One upset down. One to go. The incumbent has the party machine behind them. I have you. Two weeks left. Every $5 puts this message in front of more Delaware voters before November 3: end the endless wars, massive debt relief for families and businesses, massive boost for the debt-free, and a Congress that answers to Main Street, not just Wall Street. Chip in now: drjoeforcongress.com/donate You know me. I

  • My opponent works for you. So why not face you? Two weeks ago I challenged the incumbent to a one-on-one, Lincoln-Douglas style debate. No gimmicks. No sound bites. Just the issues. The answer? Silence. Delaware has ONE seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. You deserve to hear both candidates defend their records before you vote on November 3. If you think the incumbent owes Delaware a debate, share this. Then chip in $5 to help me reach more voters: drjoeforcongress.com/donate You kno

  • Trillions for wars overseas. We can't fix a pothole. Iraq. Afghanistan. Iran. Every time, Washington finds the money. Every time, Delaware gets the bill, and our kids carry the risk of a draft. I opposed the Iran War before it started. My opponent did not join bipartisan efforts (H. Con. Res. 38) to block attacking Iran in June 2025 and Feb 2026 without a debate and vote in Congress! Both parties signed those blank checks. I won't. End the endless wars. Invest at home. Share if you're done p
