Tea Party
2020 May Be The Best Year In A Decade For Conservatives To Run For Congress
By Richard A. Viguerie, CHQ Chairman
Conservatives, if you, or someone you know, is interested in running for Congress, or any other political office, I urge you to recruit your team and file as soon as possible, the 2020 election is going to be a great year for conservatives.
In Memoriam: David Koch
By Richard A Viguerie, CHQ Chairman
All conservatives are deeply in debt to David Koch. I know very little about the depth and reach of the Koch brothers ideological activities, but what very little I do know caused me to realize it’s unprecedented in the conservative movement, and not really appreciated by most conservatives.
Tea Party Is Not Dead; It’s More Vibrant, Essential Than Ever
Sen. Rand Paul was not the only one to bemoan the “death” of the tea party last month. As long as there is liberty in America, there will be a tea party movement. As long as there is liberty in America, there will be a tea party movement—the liberty movement, if you will—in America. Sam Adams started it in Boston in December 1773. Our Founding Fathers passed it on to the next generation. The torch of liberty continued passing from one generation to the next. This generation’s tea party movement intends to pass the torch of liberty to our children and grandchildren so they, too, can be free to pursue their American dream.
GOP List Of Shame On Budget Vote
- 2011 Budget Control Act
- asylum
- border wall
- budget crisis
- Debt ceiling
- Democrats
- detention beds
- Donald Trump
- federal deficit
- GOP primaries
- government shutdown
- ICE funding
- illegal immigration
- Mitch McConnell
- Nancy Pelosi
- national debt
- Sen. Patrick J. Leahy
- spending deal
- Supreme Court
- tax collections

- government shutdown
- ICE funding
- illegal immigration

- Nancy Pelosi
- national debt
- Sen. Patrick J. Leahy
- spending deal
- Supreme Court
- tax collections
- Tea Party
President Trump and conservatives won a big victory in the Supreme Court’s Wall ruling and in the otherwise disastrous spending bill, but we must be prepared to renew the immigration fight when Congress returns in September and takes-up the next round of spending bills.
What Do You Call A One-Legged Stool?
Principles matter in elections, and with all four legs of the 2016 big table coalition working full throttle on his behalf Donald Trump is a shoo-in for reelection, but a stool or table supported only by the one leg of Donald Trump’s outsized personality is likely to crash on Election Day.
Conservatives Oppose Trillion Dollar Spending Boondoggle
The Trump administration projected in March that this year’s deficit will hit $1.1 trillion, up from last year’s deficit of $779 billion – a figure comparable to the Obama-era deficit. After months of urging congressional and administration negotiators to prioritize reductions in spending, the Conservative Action Project has come out in opposition to this irresponsible bipartisan budget deal.
Trump Sucked Into McConnell Spending Betrayal
The voters who want fiscal responsibility who powered the Tea Party Wave and the Trump Movement haven’t gone away. While they may grudgingly support President Trump in 2020 against a Far-Left progressive Democrat, congressional Republicans who think they can spend their way to reelection will face the wrath of those voters.

Is Senator Rand Paul Right About Afghanistan?
“I think the Afghan war is long past its mission. I think we killed and captured and disrupted the people who attacked us on 9/11 long ago. And I think now it's a nation building exercise...
