Where is the OUTRAGE?!
In England, the King is calling for his own brother’s prosecution. In Norway, the Princess is being stripped of support. 🌍 But in America? Our government is running cover for elite pedophiles until people like Rep. Ro Khanna and Rep. Thomas Massie force their hand. There is NO accountability for the ‘Epstein Class’ in the…

Zach Lahn for Governor of Iowa
Putting my pain into purpose. 🎗️🙏🏻 My journey as a 2x cancer survivor has taught me that silence isn’t an option when our future is at stake. With Iowa facing the 2nd highest cancer rate in the nation, we can’t afford ‘politics as usual.’ We need a leader who has the guts to name the…

What Ron Paul’s 2002 Prediction Teaches Us About Today
Why weren’t the adults listening? 🚩 In 2002, I was 12. I was worried about middle school dances and Lip Smacker gloss.

Pain into Purpose: Protecting Iowa
After preschool pick-up today, I went and fought to protect Iowa’s air, land, and water. I didn’t change out of my “mama gear,” and I didn’t leave my survivor story at the door.

From Cancer Survivor to Political Orphan: Why I’m Done with Party Loyalty
For years, I’ve carried a label that no longer fits. I’ve been a registered Democrat since 2008—a college kid inspired by the hope of the Obama era.

Navigating the Digital Leap
There is a specific kind of “Millennial amnesia” we all share. We remember the freedom of riding bikes until the streetlights came on, but we forget that our parents had absolutely no way to reach us.
