Last week, it was establishment Republican Congresswoman Renee Ellmers who lost her primary. Yesterday, Republican voters in North Dakota and Virginia showed a preference for fresh faces rather than well-funded incumbents with establishment support.

By Richard A. ViguerieWhen I asked CHQ readers to help me crowd-source a running mate for Donald Trump, I was already thinking that former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum would make a good prospect, but I wanted to see if CHQ readers saw the same creative disruption in the selection of Trump’s running mate that Trump wrought on the presidential nomination in the primaries. I think the answer...

Paul Kane of The Washington Post has written a fine article on the importance of Eric Cantor's primary defeat two years ago to conservative David Brat. Brat's victory had a major impact on Congress, especially on blocking amnesty for illegal aliens.

The defeat of Congresswoman Renee Ellmers in her North Carolina primary should serve as a warning to those Republicans who think that, once elected, they can ignore their conservative constituents. Ellmers was elected in 2010 with Tea Party support and the endorsement of Sarah Palin. As a former nurse, her strong criticism of ObamaCare carried extra credibility. On Tuesday night, Ellmers not...

Most Americans, if they depend on the mainstream media, believe that Donald Trump simply concluded that because Federal Judge Gonzalo Curiel ruled against him the judge must therefore be biased as a result of his Mexican ancestry. The rush by Republicans to denounce Trump’s statement reinforces that belief. The facts are a little different. Trump says that he believes the suit should have been...

Donald Trump’s May 31 press conference, in which he defended his fundraising for veterans, put the pro-Clinton bias of the media on display once again. The Washington Post was justified in looking into the results of Trump’s January fundraiser for veterans, and Trump should never have allowed his campaign manager to falsely claim that his one million dollar personal donation had already been...

Speaker of the House Paul Ryan’s refusal to endorse Republican Presidential nominee-in-waiting Donald Trump has attracted a great deal of media attention this month. The fact that the media has a bee in its bonnet over the Trump-Ryan battle for most-prominent in the GOP has crowded out just about everything else happening on Capitol Hill -- especially one development that largely explains how...

Conservatives want Donald Trump to continue his unorthodox style of campaigning, according to a poll conducted by FedUp PAC. Trump “should be himself, continuing to campaign as he has for the past year”, say 84%. Only 9% believe that Trump, having nearly locked up the Republican nomination, should now become more like traditional presidential candidates. Trump has received advice from some...
