"Derek Schmidt is nothing more than a timid career politician who has failed conservatives at every turn during his time in the state legislature and as Attorney General of Kansas.

Trump appointee announces run for Congress in Kansas
Former President Trump-appointee Jeff Kahrs today announced he will seek the Republican nomination for U.S. Congress in Kansas's second congressional district.
"I want my children to inherit the same free and prosperous country that my parents left to my generation, but we have work to do to make that a reality. Our nation is in peril. We have an open border, staggering debt, runaway inflation and a culture that celebrates sexual deviance and destruction of the family. We need a Congressman who will love their neighbors enough to take the tough votes necessary to protect the future of Kansas and our nation. That's why I'm running for Congress," Jeff Kahrs said.
