My husband Hardeman has had a front-row seat to just about every chapter of my life. He has watched me take on one project after another - in our community, at church, at work - usually because I saw something that needed to be done and couldn’t leave it alone. He knows I’ve never been motivated by a title. For me, it has always been about the work, seeing something through, and refusing to quit just because I hear “no.” Nothing I have has come without work. Hardeman has seen the blood, sweat

🇺🇸 My grandfather stormed the beaches of Normandy to protect our freedoms. Too many brave soldiers around him lost their lives on those same beaches. My grandfather lived to be 102 years old. As we enjoy family and friends this Memorial Day weekend let’s remember the brave men and women who paid the ultimate sacrifice for the greatest nation on earth, the United States of America.

This morning, covered in prayer and being backed by my boys, I did a thing…again. I qualified to run for the U.S. House of Representatives in the 5th Congressional District. 🇺🇸 A district that I was born and raised in, and now… thanks to the new map, includes my entire parish as well as surrounding ones that consist of my base and oldest friends and supporters. I run in this district as one who was raised rural, who has made a career in rural healthcare and who currently serves as the Chai

Each name opens the page’s Vipima page, with its own figures and its link to Meta’s Ad Library.
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.
