(The Post Millennial)—GOP Rep. Don Bacon of Nebraska will not seek reelection in 2026, stepping away from Congress after five terms representing the state’s politically competitive 2nd Congressional District.
Bacon, who is known for his public criticisms of President Donald Trump on the matter of the Ukraine war and is in a more centrist district, is expected to formally announce his retirement on Monday, according to a report by The New York Times.
Bacon’s Omaha-based district is considered a key swing seat. It was carried by Vice President Kamala Harris in 2024 and by Joe Biden over Trump in 2020. Bacon narrowly won reelection last year by less than two percentage points, and his departure could give Democrats a crucial opportunity to flip the seat and further reduce the GOP’s majority in the House.
The Nebraska representative has increasingly distanced himself from Trump in recent years regarding the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. In an interview with the New York Post earlier this year, Bacon accused Trump of taking a “pro-Russian view” on the war in Ukraine and claimed he was being “a bit of an appeaser to Russia.”
Just last month, Bacon criticized Trump for “moral ambiguity” after he condemned both Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in a social media post.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
