We're proud to announce our 2026 Principles First Summit, February 20-22!

This year's theme was an obvious one: America 250, focusing on the ideas that have made America the envy of the world since 1776, and how we pass the torch to future generations.

See you at the Gaylord! tinyurl.com/55z6wuue

Principles matter. They define who we are and what we believe. We need leaders with the courage to defend them. Putin must be stopped.

We are grateful a suspect has been arrested in connection to the murder of Charlie Kirk. Like you, we are horrified by this senseless tragedy.

Political violence is never the answer. Our hearts are with Charlie's wife, young children, and family during this unimaginable time.

Today we remember 9/11: the lives lost, the heroes, and the resilience of a great nation in the face of tragedy. We are stronger when we stand together.

Remember when Trump said he could end Putin’s war in Ukraine within 24 hours?

Remember when he said he would build a wall and Mexico would pay for it?

Remember when he said he would release the Epstein files?

All empty promises and lies. Quit being his mark.

To recap: Trump has now (1) had his name redacted from the Epstein files, (2) given preferential treatment to Ghislaine Maxwell, moving her to a cushy detention center over the outrage of the victims’ families, and (3) called his supporters dumb for asking questions about this.

Since Trump’s inauguration earlier this year, the US dollar has lost 11% of its value, the steepest decline in over 50 years.

That’s before you even count the tariffs he’s making us pay.

Trump is making us poorer while artificially inflating the price of everything.
