Harry Dunn was one of the Capitol Police officers who stood his ground on January 6th—the man who earned the Presidential Citizens Medal, and the death threats that came with telling the truth about that day. Now he’s running for Congress in Maryland’s 5th District for the open seat Steny Hoyer left behind, and his primary is just two weeks out, on June 23rd. Already, more than $5 million in crypto, AI, and AIPAC money has flooded in behind another candidate. This is exactly the fight that decides whether we take back the House—and Cliff sat down with Harry to get into all of it.
In this special edition of AMPED UP, Harry lays out the two things his campaign runs on—accountability and affordability—and why they’re the same fight. He explains the lawsuit he filed as a private citizen to stop the January 6th “slush fund” that would pay off the people who beat cops and hunted Nancy Pelosi, why he calls it an incentive for the next insurrection, and the creative, actually-doable ideas he has for capping the flood of corporate money in our elections. He goes after Mitch McConnell for the one vote that could have kept Trump off the ballot, and somehow stays a happy warrior through all of it. If you want to see what a real fighter for Congress looks like—not a corporate Democrat, not a sellout—watch this one before June 23rd.
Cliff’s Note: Here’s the thing: this is exactly why Blue Amp exists. When we platform someone like Harry Dunn two weeks before his primary, while $5 million in special-interest money tries to drown him out, that’s not just content—that’s how we help good people get to Congress and take back the House and the Senate. We can only keep doing it because of you.
