Sydney Gruters might have the D.C. machine behind her, but she has no chance against a proven grassroots fighter like Eddie Speir.
In 2024, Eddie took on 20-year incumbent Vern Buchanan and still pulled in about 40% of the vote in a GOP primary that was stacked in favor of the establishment. That kind of support doesn’t disappear—it grows, especially now that the seat is OPEN and voters are free to choose without an incumbent on the ballot.
Sydney’s only “qualification” is being the wife of the RNC chair and a longtime insider tied to the very establishment voters are sick of. Eddie has already shown he can go toe-to-toe with entrenched power and rally thousands of Republicans to his side without the backing of party bosses.
The reality: this race is @EddieSpeir vs. the swamp. And the base has already shown which side they’re on.
🚨BREAKING NEWS:
@GOP chairman's wife is running for CONGRESS
"It's happening. I don't know exactly when she will announce, but it's going to happen." - @FloridaGOP source confirms.

You are terrorists. The United States doesn’t take orders from Iran.
Conducted on the strength of Article 51 of the UN Charter pertaining to legitimate defense, Iran’s military action was in response to the Zionist regime’s aggression against our diplomatic premises in Damascus. The matter can be deemed concluded. However, should the Israeli regime make another mistake, Iran’s response will be considerably more severe. It is a conflict between Iran and the rogue Israeli regime, from which the U.S. MUST STAY AWAY!

Another smear campaign backfired, exposing @VernBuchanan's network of bad actors: @MaxJGoodman, @anthonypedicini, @jenningslawton, and Eric Robinson. This time, @PeterSchorschFL of Florida Politics is caught red-handed in his pay-to-play scheme, and we have the receipts.

It's official. We made it! We got more petitions than any other political candidate and have become the largest grassroots movement in Manatee County history!!!

This attack, like the ones before, is weak and legally ignorant, and, given his RINO voting record, exposes @VernBuchanan's limited arsenal.

.@Fla_Pol with @PeterSchorschFL and his network of pay-for-play reporters including @jacobogles have received their orders from @anthonypedicini and his company SIMWINS. They are now dutifully attacking Vern Buchanan's political opponent, me, with tenuous arguments.
Jacob correctly states that I pay my son to work for the campaign and then colors it with the words "more conspicuously." Puuuuhhhhlease.
I've given $500,000 to my campaign and paid people close to me to help with that effort. There is nothing wrong with this. If I were using somebody else's money donated for a different purpose and funneling it to my relatives, that would be something different. Jacob, is your reporting so biased that you can't even recognize that this is as clean and above board as you can get? There isn't even any basis for fraudulent activity here.
While you're reporting on the facts is miles above
@swalker_7 of the @HeraldTribune, your corrupt bias is clear. There is nothing fraudulent or hidden with my campaign, and yet you attack with insinuation and innuendo.
On the other hand. @VernBuchanan has been listed on Business Insider's list of top 20 Most Corrupt members of Congress for as long as that list existed, and your response for years has been...

I hope that even my worst critics remain on Twitter, because that is what free speech means
Derrick Todd retweeted
By “free speech”, I simply mean that which matches the law.
I am against censorship that goes far beyond the law.
If people want less free speech, they will ask government to pass laws to that effect.
Therefore, going beyond the law is contrary to the will of the people.

If you ever thought this country could survive a REAL disruption to the food and power supply, I’m going to gently remind you that some people could barely hold it together when FB, IG and WhatsApp went down for a few hours.
