During the conversation, Sheriff Lamb explained that while politics was never his goal, his love for America and concern for the nation’s direction compelled him to run. He emphasized that Washington needs leaders who are unapologetic about faith, family, and freedom.

When asked about foreign aid, Lamb was direct, saying the United States must prioritize Americans first. He criticized the federal government for sending billions abroad while citizens face rising debt and poverty at home. Lamb quoted Alexis de Tocqueville to warn against a Congress that uses taxpayer money to “bribe the people with the people’s money.”
