New MUCK YOU! South Dakota, Meet Your Escape Hatch

Brian Bengs wants to give voters a Senate option that does not come with a party-issued leash.

Welcome to Final Brian Bengs Week, and today we have the man himself: Brian Bengs, Independent candidate for U.S. Senate in South Dakota.

Brian is not a political prop. He is not another party-scripted candidate reading talking points handed down from Washington. He is a husband, father, attorney, dual-service military veteran, retired Air Force Lieutenant Colonel, former JAG officer, former professor, and former national park ranger. He has taught law, policy, criminal justice, government, homeland security, and the rule of law. He has served his country in uniform and in the classroom. Now he is asking South Dakotans to send him to the United States Senate.

And here is the thing: Brian Bengs can win.

South Dakota voters are independent-minded. They know when Washington is broken. They know when the two-party food fight is not solving the cost of living, rural healthcare, veterans’ issues, corruption, or the basic problem of politicians answering to party bosses instead of real people. Brian’s campaign cuts straight through that noise. His message is simple: not red, not blue, just South Dakota.

“Brian Bengs is an attorney, veteran, professor, former JAG officer, and former park ranger, which means he has dealt with criminals, bureaucracy, students, and wild animals. So honestly, the United States Senate may be a lateral move.”

David B. Wheeler, Co-Founder of American Muckrakers and Host of MUCK YOU!

He is already on the ballot. He has run statewide before. He has name recognition, military credibility, legal experience, and a serious independent lane in a state where voters are tired of being taken for granted. This is not a vanity campaign. This is a real race, and the way Brian wins is by building the biggest independent voter-to-voter effort South Dakota has seen in years.

So today, we are going to talk about his background, why this race matters, how an Independent can beat the machine, and what people across South Dakota and across the country can do right now to help.
