John Badger 2028 Campaign News
As the 2028 presidential campaign moves forward, our candidate, John Badger, has faced questions regarding his decision to actively investigate and speak publicly about the human rights issues surrounding the Karmelo Anthony case in Texas.
Some individuals have expressed concerns that, as a candidate for the highest office in the United States, Mr. Badger should refrain from offering opinions or conducting human rights investigations.
Today, we want to make it absolutely clear: John Badger is acting fully within his rights legally, ethically, and professionally and remains committed to defending human rights without compromise.
John Badger is not only a candidate; he is an International Human Rights Defender, defending the rights of individuals across the globe, a credentialed paralegal with seven years of seasoned experience, a graduate of one of America’s most prestigious colleges, and a certified news analyst.
He operates under the full protection of the First Amendment of the United States Constitution, which guarantees freedom of speech and freedom of the press.
The Rights and Responsibilities of an International Human Rights Defender:
International Human Rights Defenders are not attorneys and are not bound by courtroom rules of decorum unless participating as parties to a case.
International Human Rights Defenders do not require consent from families or individuals to investigate, report on, or expose potential human rights violations.
International Human Rights Defenders have the right to investigate, document, expose, and advocate against abuses, without fear or intimidation.
International Human Rights Defenders can file cases, reports, and complaints, but do not act as courtroom counsel unless separately licensed as attorneys.
Important:
John Badger has not violated any guideline, law, or ethical code in his investigation or reporting of the Karmelo Anthony case.
The United Nations Declaration on Human Rights Defenders supports these actions, stating:
"Everyone has the right, individually and in association with others, to promote and to strive for the protection and realization of human rights and fundamental freedoms..." (Article 1) "Human rights defenders have the right to freely disseminate views, information, and knowledge on all human rights and fundamental freedoms..." (Article 6)
Protecting Integrity and Reputation:
Our campaign would like to make it abundantly clear:
We are fully prepared to pursue legal remedies against any individuals or organizations that attempt to slander, defame, or misrepresent John Badger's name, work, or character.
We are proud to be backed by a professional, seasoned legal team, and our campaign is well-funded and fully resourced to ensure that any falsehoods or attacks against Mr. Badger will be met with swift and appropriate action.
We caution all individuals and media outlets to exercise truthfulness and responsibility when referencing John Badger.
As Mr. Badger firmly states:
"My pockets run deep. My patience runs short for liars. Watch how you use my name because I stand on business, and I stand on truth."
Leadership in Action:
Running for president does not erase John Badger’s international human rights commitment it strengthens it.
The courage to stand up, speak out, and act with integrity defines the kind of leadership the world deserves.
Silencing a defender of human dignity because he seeks office would be an affront to democracy itself.
John Badger’s campaign continues to stand strong, proud, and unapologetically committed to defending human rights in the United States and around the world.
