I used to call myself a radical moderate. I believed in bipartisanship as a civic virtue. That time has passed - not because the center has failed, but because one party has abandoned honest governance entirely, and the other cannot win this district alone.
Someone has to stand up and tell the truth - about January 6th, about the national debt, about a war launched without congressional authorization, about billionaire donors who have purchased our courts and our policies.
I am running as an independent because that is the only way I can say all of these things without checking where the party stands first. Party candidates cannot do that. They will not do that. I will.
I can say the 2020 election was not stolen. I can say a woman has a right to choose. I can say the Constitution guarantees the right to bear arms. I can say all of these things in the same breath - because I answer to the voters of Virginia's 2nd District, not to a party.

What party candidates won't.
Five things Baker will say out loud
The 2020 election was not stolen.
A woman has a right to choose.
Billionaire donors have too much power — and this campaign takes no PAC money.
The Second Amendment is the law of the land. Common-sense regulation is not a contradiction.
Firing the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs and the Chief of Naval Operations made us weaker, not stronger.
WHY I'm Running
