In a move that could have considerable consequences for the future of the Republican party, Politico is reporting that Harmeet Dhillon is considering a challenge to Ronna McDaniel for the RNC chair position.
Mrs Dhillon is a current RNC national committee member from California and her legal firm Dhillon Law is a current contractor to the RNC. A little more than a week ago Harmeet Dhillon announced she was going to be partnered with the notorious and corrupt DC insider Henry Barbour from Mississippi. Barbour, a man of extremely sketchy political disposition, is also a national RNC committee member, and together they were to perform an RNC autopsy in the aftermath of the 2022 midterm election.
Ronna McDaniel said she was going to run for reelection to the RNC chair post despite dismal performance by the national organization against the DNC ballot gathering operation. Additionally, the trust factor between the RNC and the voting base of the party, specifically the MAGA base, has completely evaporated. The RNC has focused more on raising money than supporting elections and candidates.
Previously, New York Congressman Lee Zeldin said he was considering a challenge, and MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell announced his full intent to challenge McDaniel for the role and responsibility. Into this dynamic now steps Harmeet Dhillon.
As a party insider, Harmeet Dhillon would represent a significant threat to the Ronna McDaniel wing of the RNC as many members who may not support Zeldin or Lindell would likely support Dhillon over McDaniel.
Arguably, Ronna McDaniel was motivated by self-preservation and using a proclaimed reformer, albeit RNC contracted legal advisor, Harmeet Dhillon, to put a coat of new paint over the corrupt and failed RNC vehicle. Dhillon and Barbour playing a role for the RNC as a failed institution similar to the tamp-down efforts of Bill Barr and John Durham at the DOJ.
In their article, Politico avoids mentioning the financial relationship between Dhillon Law and the RNC. By the time 2022 is completed, the Republican National Committee will likely have paid Dhillon Law over a million dollars for services rendered.
We previously wondered how Harmeet Dhillon was going to vote against the reelection of Ronna McDaniel who is effectively her employer. Obviously, there is a conflict of interest inside the financial dynamic overall.
Ms. Dhillon, claiming all of her work for the RNC was/is voluntary, was furious at criticism over her self-promoted relationship with the notoriously corrupt Henry Barbour, and then secondarily angered by public knowledge about her financial relationship with the RNC.
(Politico) Ronna McDaniel is about to draw a challenge to her post as Republican National Committee chair.
Harmeet Dhillon, a RNC committeewoman whose firm represents Donald Trump, is prepping a bid for party chair, according to two people familiar with her planning. Dhillon has been talking with fellow RNC members about a prospective run, and those close to Dhillon say a formal launch could come within the next few days.
“After three successive terms of underwhelming results at the polls for the GOP, all the while with leaders congratulating ourselves for outstanding performance, I feel that we owe it to our voters to have a serious debate about the leadership of the party and what we must change to actually win in 2024,” Dhillon said in a statement.
A Dhillon candidacy would mark the most serious challenge to McDaniel to date.
Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-N.Y.), who ran an unsuccessful bid for New York governor, has also said he is considering a bid, though he has yet to declare his candidacy. Mike Lindell, the MyPillow executive and Trump backer who has risen to prominence through his denial of the 2020 election outcome, has launched a longshot campaign for the post.
The committee’s 168 members will hold a vote to determine the RNC chairmanship at the committee’s annual winter meeting, which is set to be held in late January in Dana Point, Calif. A McDaniel representative declined to comment on Dhillon’s anticipated candidacy.
McDaniel, who has been RNC leader since 2017 and would be the longest-serving chair in more than a century should she be reelected to a third term, may be tough to unseat. Her allies say she has already received commitments of support from more than 100 members — more than the majority of votes she would need. On Friday, McDaniel received an endorsement from David Bossie, an influential Maryland RNC committeeman once seen as a potential contender for the chairmanship. Trump himself has not endorsed.
People close to Dhillon, however, insist that McDaniel’s support is soft and that she could win over those who are unhappy with the party’s disappointing showing in this year’s midterms. (read more)
It is likely that Harmeet Dhillon could fracture the support base for Ronna McDaniel at the RNC.
What is lesser known is the difference that might exist within the organization if Dhillon replaced McDaniel.
The DNC wants power. The RNC wants money. The DNC uses money to get power. The RNC uses power to get money.
The ideology of the DNC drives their donor activity. The donor activity of the RNC drives their ideology. This is the essential difference.
The priority of the DNC is to win elections, assemble power and by extension control the mechanisms that deliver them wealth. The priority of the RNC is money, and by extension winning elections is not the most important thing. The priority of the RNC is the accumulation of wealth for itself.
The DNC has ideology as their core mission objective, that focus drives their fundraising and ballot collection. In this approach the ideology remains consistent. However, the RNC has monetary gain as their core mission objective, and that drives their ideology. The RNC ideology is therefore subject to being purchased by the desires of the current biggest buyer.
The democrats want power. The republicans want money. The DNC uses money to get power. The RNC uses power to get money.
Every single decision by Ronna McDaniel emphasized this RNC dynamic over the past six years. Would the RNC prioritization of money change under Harmeet Dhillon? Some might say yes, but Dhillon’s aversion to sunlight on her paid role for the RNC points to an answer by itself.
The biggest issue within the dynamic of the RNC is the lack of honesty, transparency and clear-thinking stewardship. The RNC regards republican voters as annoyances to be overcome and managed in the assembly of their priority, money. Harmeet Dhillon has expressed on her social media she wants to change this dynamic. However, change comes first by looking in the mirror and dropping the conflicts of interest.
Ronna McDaniel, Harmeet Dhillon, Mike Lindell and possibly Lee Zeldin.
If honesty, integrity and a willingness to take slings and arrows in defense of the country are the main organizational attributes desired in an RNC leader, you can look at the names and make the prediction. However, if the priority of RNC members is the desire to continue business operation for maximum financial gain, that too is predictable.
Money, it’s what the modern RNC is all about. Nothing else has mattered in the past 15+ years.
Given the outcome of the November election, I don’t see that priority changing. However, given the outcome of 2016, 2018, 2020 and 2022, maybe there is enough pressure now to change it.
We will find out late January.

Neil Oliver. While we are discussing RNC vs DNC, this is the actual reality:
I don’thave to listen to this Guru for 17 mins stating the obvious. CTH should already be aware getting screwed by Big Tech working with popoliticiansnd GoGovernmenagencies. He is BORING as Hell.
I guess you’re right…we got way too many people speaking the truth with big microphones. [Farting sound]
Classy.
Some people need reinforcement of what’s going on.
He is not speaking to you. He has old school British manners and is letting that contingent be able to absorb what is happening. If you think the conservatives are a huge swath knowing all…I got news for ya pal. Most repub conservatives are ideologues and plug their ears to the rest of the world or Rockefella repubs who brag about their war stock dividends being flush. So, to follow your strictures limits the allies needed for this battle to be won by the peoples of the world. Your blither adds nothing to our firepower on the cultural battlefield.
No one is making you listen to anything.
Neither are the 1
Yeah, ’cause she has done such a great job in California. SPIT.
Somehow I knew this was coming.
No Republican chairman can do a “great job” in Califoria because the voter registration numbers won’t allow it. The Dems have the numbers. Until the Dems can’t take any more, there won’t be change.
Sounds like BCS logic to me. So the beatings will continue until morale improves.
The GOP chairman is Jessica Patterson. A useless RINO.
CAGOP Char Jessica Millan Patterson is a feckless, useless RINO fundraiser, just like her national counterpart, RINO Ronna Romney
Give Harmeet a chance… she’s one of us, a MAGA conservative who wants to topple the country-club neocons represented by Romney, McConnell and McCarthy…
BULL.
If anyone didn’t notice, a swarm of ‘give up, there’s no hope’ DNC trolls are out in force on this thread now.
Always. When the going gets tough, the trolls get trolling. 😆
Thankfully it never stops CTH from having actual discussion on real issues.
We tried it your way in 2018, 2020 and 2022. Guess what, your way didn’t work.
It is time for a new strategy together with new leadership. If nothing is ever changed, then nothing changes. (And I am not including President Trump in the need for change of leadership, but I do think his strategy needs some adjusting to leave the repukicans behind.)
And for those who say we (meaning MAGA) made some progress, please provide a list of MAGA members of Congress and in leadership positions in States to provide the receipts that progress has occurred.
What specifically is the alternative strategy you recommend?
That is a very good question. We see a lot of stomping around and huffing and puffing and that’s that….
And criticism of that by those who don’t even stomp around and only contribution is snide remarks.
So tell me please….is the current strategy doing anything except giving the country the same ol’ uniparty?
Third party and let the chips fall where they may because they sure aren’t falling our way.
What do you mean it didn’t work? We were cheated in 2018, royally robbed in 2020, and suffered (still) the most corrupt midterm election ever. And through all of this we have maintained a few new warriors in the Congress. We are not done by any means until the good Lord shows us we are. This is not political, it’s spiritual. Totally. These demons stretching from the Banksters on Wall Street to the demons in Hollywood and the Godless Christ hating media all have one thing in common. They hate God, and anyone who believes in Christ Jesus. If God be for us, who can be against us? Keep the faith, it’s Christmas.
I would argue uniparty trolls since Sundance brought the sunlight to Dhillon’s basement there’s been a noticeable increase in negative comments outside the scope on here. Guess they’re over the target. Godspeed Patriots 🇺🇸
The GOP is just another corporation, with all the pathologies that corporations manifest. It’s leadership is an expression of the most dominant institutional malignancies.
There is nothing sacred about it. It’s a child of the state government that incorporated it.
If it’s become utterly bankrupt as certainly as the DNC has become, the American People need to deal with the corporations that strangle and parasitize the lives and livelihoods of its citizens.
The GOP is too smitten with itself and infested with beltway interlopers to do much for the American People.
We see it. We’d have to be blind not to. Would you have us pretend otherwise?
When you say walk away from the GOP –Do you mean walk away from politics entirely? Cede the field entirely?
Or rather do you envision an alternative political approach outside of the GOP?
Can you be specific what exactly you envision we do if as you suggest we leave the GOP?
Ok, I get you’re saying walk away, no more support for the GOP.
But you still haven’t answered my question — then what?
What exactly are you suggesting we do instead of supporting the GOP?
Do you have an alternative strategy in mind other than giving up and going home?
Did you ever watch WALT DISNEY’S “The Sons of Liberty” (Boston Tea Party) – “Johnny Tremain” -or Leslie Nielson’s “Francis Marion”, “The Swamp Fox”? He was a real life Frontiersman who did Real Genuine Guerilla warfare against the British, and there are cities and counties in all 50 states with his name on them, for his Real Life activities
“Elfego Baca”, 1963
Elfego Baca was a real-life Mexican American lawman in the late 1800s.
They just looked for Opportunities to CLEVERLY deal with Local Tyranny, in ways that Discouraged Continually playing “Let’s Go Round the Mulberry Bush”, They looked instead for opportunities to humiliate the enemies without getting caught doing it – Like the Boston Tea Party, and making the bad guys chase their own shadows while they protected the local Heroes who were Defenseless in the “Manly Arts”, such as James Otis, Benjamin Franklin, and Samuel Adams and still were put on King George’s “Wanted Dead or Alive” posters when they were NOT guilty of any CRIMES or High Treasons – being “SOMEWHERE ELSE” when the Bad Guys fell into Mud Holes, etc. But they spent time making and preparing CLEVER solutions to their battles with TYRANTS.
They were men who PRAYED THROUGH – getting IDEAS for Clever Solutions and “SUDDENLIES”, from the Lord God Himself.
Those shows depicted the REAL activities of REAL MEN AND WOMEN, and EVEN CHILDREN, in our Founding Days – RESOURCEFUL people. Those Frontier people KNEW how to “pull the Rug out from under Real Tyrants.
They did NOT sit and wait for tyrants to throw nooses around their necks. Especially when the Tyrants were Breaking REAL, GENUINE LAWS against the Tyrannical Activities.
They didn’t play Parlor Games, but they didn’t become Brutalizing Muslim Pirates from Tripoli, either.
And they didn’t become KKK vicious killers, either.
And just because Walt Disney made TV SERIES out of their lives didn’t mean those REAL LIFE MEN were just “Cartoon Characters, either, where “Scripts” solved all their Real Life Problems.
Constitution Party is looking better all the time… we just need to get enough people on board and grow the numbers and influence…
I ask myself these questions after reading the comments to most of the postings on this site. It is obvious the vast majority of the denizens here are MAGA. But, if we are to start our own major political Party, we will have to absorb at least half of the GOP and make new MAGA Party members out of at leat half of the so called Independent voters in order to have any chance in a Presidential election. As things stand, we have no choice but to try. We have no chance to even take control of the Republican Party and reform it, and the last three elections have proven that. The odds against us are long, but like some of them say, time to take a dump or get off the pot.
Personally, I care only about the survival of our Constitutional Republic. This means that our number one first objective is to go for the jugular and outlaw Public Sector labor unions. John Adams was one of the weakest of our founding fathers, but he was absolutely correct that the people have to be educated and taught how to think for themselves as a result of that education, or a Republic can never last.
Secondly, I believe in the unalienable rights to life, liberty, property, and to make food and shelter for myself and my family. Many of those rights are found in the Amendments to our Constitution, but our God given rights should be protected by all of our statutes. I believe Government over reaches whenever it decides what is in our best interest without us.
If MAGA can come up with a realistic all encompassing platform that includes only that much, I can be interested in joining the effort. If all we think we have to do is re-elect President Trump and our problems will go away, we are deluding ourselves. We will have to win majorities in every State that we can, which means we can’t take an all or nothing approach any more. The definition of politics means that there has to be give and take in order to move the pendulum in our own direction. This is very difficult unless there are at least a few basic beliefs that all Americans can agree upon.
Here is where I step back and let smarter people go go work to build our new Party.
As to Harmeet Dhillon, let her do what she thinks she should do. It doesn’t matter to me if she becomes a visible Republican, if we are going to try to build our own Party. I think she is much more persuadable to our MAGA beliefs than any relative of Mitt Romney will be.
Cannot imagine someone volunteering to work for and be paid by Mitch McConnell and the nephew of Haley Barbour, who is TRUST-WORTHILY CAPABLE of being a Good Fit into MAGA.
Harmeet doesn’t NEED to be persuaded… she’s one of “us” *MAGA* – she needs our support against the RINO country-clubbers like Romney
Thanks. I’m going to come back later and reread your comments more slowly to make sure I fully took in all your thoughts.
Think I heard that you feel we need to broaden our appeal to include a wider tent. And one way you’re suggesting would be to focus on a limited number of values that a great many people share, like liberty and a Consitutional Republic. I really like your thoughts on this.
https://constitutionparty.com/principles/platform-preamble/
Amen. Beautifully said.
How About just shove the GOP down the throats of the DNC and aim their buses off in Search of Thelma and Louise at the top of the Grand Canyon.
Let them have at imagineering eachother, royally.
Well I’m no troll but I pretty much have given up on the GOP. They’re not going to do anything for us anytime soon. I have been burned too many times by them to have any faith whatsoever in the Republican party.
Also, Democrat voters are not going to stop voting Democrat just because of the Twitter documents or anything else because the news they watch will explain it all and ensure that the GOP is still evil and that the DNC has the solutions for them. Lather, rinse, repeat. And, in case you haven’t noticed, our elections are still rigged against us too. So what is left to do, aside from complaining about it on message boards or civil war?
So you’re saying no to the GOP. Not debating you, just want to hear what your thoughts are on how we move forward without the GOP.
What would that look like exactly? Do you mean we should cede the political field entirely? Focus on other arenas outside of politics? Give up and go home? What exactly?
My idea is for Trump to start a new party. I have posted that here several times, including in this thread. Other than that, I have no clue. But I do know that the GOP is not representing me. If anything, they’re working against me.
FTR, I have never claimed to be a leader of any kind. I simply want people in Washington to represent me instead of stabbing me in the back. Is that really too much to ask when our government is supposed to be accountable to we the people?
AMEN!
I think it’s a Ross Perot sentiment.
“If you aren’t going there to roll up your sleeves and clean out the barn, just what do you think will happen to make things different? Not a damn thing!”
Especially considering that H. Ross Perot was BLATANTLY the allie of Bill Clinton.
And I watched him do it – LIVE and IN PLAIN SIGHT!
And was myself stupid enough to think Perot was betraying the GOP and G.H Bush!!!
I was only just a Kid in those days.
Pray TELL how you see the Constitutionalists as “Already” SO FAR having done ANY “Moving Forward” – WITH the GOPe
In my 71 years of life.
And I know of NO such progress with them during the years of the WWII Era, up TO 1950, Either. For That Sweet Matter.
My generation was complaining about them kicked the can down the road millions of times, in 1965 – ALREADY!.
I’ve seen no improvement at all since then.
?
I am just asking for and listening to people’s ideas.
Not sure what you mean by “Constitutionalists?”
The way your post reads, sounds like perhaps there is a political party by that name? Not aware of it, so confused by your reply.
They are around all the time on all Conservative forums. It is up to us to ignore rhwm.
We are just as MAGA as you are. Stop pretending there is hope to be found in doing the same thing election after election.
The republican leadership despises us and yet a bunch of you on here say we should keep voting for them. I am past ready to tell our abusers I am moving on. They may not need our money but they do need our votes. And instead of telling them “no,” we’ve been saying “yeah, give me some more abuse while you eat lobster and drive fancy cars and hobnob with the rich and powerful.” We simply make their lives easier and better.
Oh.. there is hope..what needs giving up is the shooting your contingent in the foot with your Ghawd damned purity tests. Musk this, DeSantis that … ignore the likes of Ron Paul. Talk crap about any anti-war politician who is not 100% republican conservative..an oxymoron to be sure…because all of it..every bit is trap. How many of ya decrying the current situation pimped for McCain and Romney and helped shut out Ron Paul..the only real muh Constitution conservative who ever ran for POTUS in the modern era.
Rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
Rona must go and another RNC installment will take place. Enter Harmeet.
Another DO NOTHING harmeet or whatever the name is!!!
WE WANT MIKE LINDELL!
Am very interested to hear new thoughtful strategies. What is your thought of how we move forward without the GOP?
Same Dish, different sprinkle of another brand of Salt.
A big, really BIG, question I’ve got is: Why does Donald J. Trump continue to use the corrupt WinRed Fundraising Apparatus ? RNC used WinRed money to destroy the Teaparty movement. Now they’re doing the same against MAGA. Why does Trump associate his fundraising with an org that hates his guts?
That’s a great question.
Should Mike Lindell not win the RNC Chair…I think most of us would agree he won’t win. Although I do believe there is a God. He should start a new party. Let him run with it for 2023 and see how things go. Have a new fundraising mechanism, rewrite how a “Party” organization should behave. Lets see what happens…
Psalm 22:28
For the kingdom is the LORD’S: and he is the governor among the nations.
Wrong!!
Mike Lindell WILL WIN!!
Could it be possible they are throwing this Dhillon woman out there because Mike Lindell has a legitimate shot at head of the RNC?
I am actually not at all sure that any of the solicitations I get daily in email and text, supposedly from PDJT, would ever actually go to PDJT.
They are often hilariously high on the manipulation meter. Obviously meant to scare and hoodwink lowfos. I think the recent record is promising a 3000% match. 😆
When I donate to him it’s by check only.
I automatically delete solicitations that begin with the salutation “Friend,”
I am not their friend.
He tells me that I am his biggest supporter. Rona just says show me the money. Mike just offers deals on good products.
Mike Lindell is our BEST HOPE!
Where do you send the check?
Trump sued the RNC for using his name on fundraising emails like WINRED. The only result I ever heard was that the GOP had to inform the recipient of such emails where the emails were actually coming from. Small print on the bottom.
Go to https://www.donaldjtrump.com/ and scroll down. WinRed is displayed prominently. Is that site an RNC spoof or the real deal?
Perhaps, just perhaps, part of being a member of the Republican party and campaigning using their name means that PDJT has to pay them a portion of his donations, kind of like a Franchise Fee.
I don’t doubt that one bit. My question is why Trump doesn’t offer an alternative to those who want nothing to do with RNC or the Republican Party. With men like McConnell and McCarthy in top positions, it is not hard to see and know what Republicans stand for–and it dam’sho ain’t making America great.
A few years ago a platform called Give.Gop was launched to give people the option to bypass the RNC and donate directly to candidates.
The RNC sent a cease and desist letter and threatened to withdraw support from anyone who used a donation platform other than WinRed.
WinRed was launched to be the sole platform for small donors –“the Party’s answer to ActBlue.”
I can’t find Give.GOP in online search engines. Am guessing it no longer exists.

The despotism Ben Franklin warned of is taking shape in many forms: despotic finance.
There you go. This is why I wish he would just start his own party. But then that would come with it’s own set of problems. One is that the GOP could just drop all pretense and go after Trump just as hard as the DNC and their media mouthpieces do. Then Trump would have to build an entire party infrastructure, which would require a lot more money than running for POTUS does. And there are probably a thousand other problems that I wouldn’t even know to consider. Either way, I don’t believe he can win again because the machine will see to it. I will still vote for him no matter what though.
Why is the Trump family, at least DJT and Junior, supporting McCarthy for Speaker; they both speak the conventional wisdom when talking about the Speaker’s competition.
Maybe Trump is playing an 8-dimensional game of whack-a-mole…that’s my best shot at figuring on why DJT hangs with the R’s. When Ross Perot made his run, he financed registering as a 3rd party in all 50 states and got it done toot-sweet. Enthusiasm and support for Trump is at least 10x what it was for Perot. Why don’t Trump pull the trigger?
Possibly PDJT believes MTG that not uniting behind McCarthy could result in the election of a Liz Cheney type character.
MTG says she is aware of maybe 20 Republicans within the caucus who are fully capable of crossing the aisle and joining the Dems to elect a worse Speaker if McCarthy isn’t the choice. In January, the full house votes, both Dems and Republicans. The first round of voting to get to 218 wins.
The Freedom Caucus is actually a small, not large wing within the house caucus.
What have they said in support of McCarthy? I’m on Truth social and I haven’t seen a comment from any of them.
That is Appalling. Tears DJT apart with American Sovereign Citizens. He needs a lot more Deep Prayer Time, is all I can say.
I have thought the same since J6, why stay with RNC apparatus or GOP at all. Clearly they despise you.
Just at a glance, we could take a few steps starting now to get organized and form a strategy going forward. Fwiw, I don’t even know how the RNC Chair is chosen? Who votes on it, how can we influence the people voting on it? Secondly, we need to learn each and every legislative and police power and authority held by the U.S. House, and use every single one to counter-attack the DC UniParty.
We could change the current paradigm virtually overnight, by going on the offensive and start removing or jailing UniParty operatives in key positions. How many votes to form our own J6 committee and start issuing subpoenas? Contact our GOP Reps before the vote for a Speaker. In case anyone doesn’t know, McCarthy is UniParty-DC, and will thwart all action besides mere theatrics.
Can the House subpoena members of the DOJ? Capitol Police? We need to immediately go on the offensive, and at minimum form a plan on how to defund the 4th Branch entirely.
The GOP representatives are at the state party level, and they elect the national. I think (but not sure) that there are 3 reps from each state. Start there.
Ah, common sense. Thanks.
How is it common sense to suggest that we arrest these people when we have absolutely no power to do so? And what exactly does it mean to go on the offensive? I’ve seen posts like this a hundred times but there is never an explanation about how regular citizens are supposed to accomplish these things, aside from getting involved in local elections, which will accomplish none of those things.
We DO have Constitutional Authority to do so.
Secondarily, there is no one more powerful for that than local Sheriffs. Surely some groups can work with SOME real Sheriffs…
No we don’t and neither do local Sheriffs have the authority to arrest Washington politicians and bureaucrats. You’re talking nonsense.
PS – you can tune in to Frank Speech at 6pm for Mike Lindell’s Lindell Report to get additional information from him.
Wikipedia has a piece on the 5 or 6 rounds of voting it took for Reince Priebus to get elected. Several candidates splitting the vote until two finally dropped out and he got the majority.
oh wow, thanks for that info. I am betting that is why Harmeet is thrown in. Ultimately, I wonder if this “splintering” which is a McConnell specialty that they do with primaries, is where they are going with this…
“We could change the current paradigm virtually overnight, by going on the offensive and start removing or jailing UniParty operatives in key positions”.
Ok how are we supposed to do that when the woke communists run the DOJ? And what exactly does “going on the offensive” mean? Are we supposed to write a bunch of strongly worded letters demanding that they arrest people? Are we supposed to take up arms and randomly attack politicans we don’t like? How does this work in the real world?
The problem with Ms. Dhillon is she only has a hammer (lawsuits) and so every problem becomes a nail. The Republican party must organize protests and get media coverage to “get the facts out” about election fraud. She needs to bring state legislatures to heel to properly examine the election changes made state by state. It is not OK for Repub govs to go along with radical election law changes and states must challenge elections when there is maleficence. She need to address the culture of corruption WITHIN the Republican party and rebut the “go along to get along” mentality of Washington DC Repubs. The Repub party is moribund and needs to be reformed.
Bringing lawsuits is a not productive use of resources. This battle needs to be fought outside the courtroom.
Lawyers litigate, surgeons operate, and problem solvers solve problems.
Agree with this generally but the bringing of lawsuits seems to work for Marc Elias. And Gore at least got the supreme court to hear his challenge. Or was is Bush that did the challenge? Either was Dem or RINO could get their attention but not a MAGA.
Is she a splitter / compromise with no difference ? Both are cocktail party princesses IMHO – would be same stripes , just a different zebra…
anybody establishment I’m Really against RNC chair,
GO MAGA,
If you tune in to Mike Lindell’s Frank Speech program (The Lindell Report, 6pm Central), you likely have heard that he is going to the “electors” in all states to garner support. I personally believe that some of the states GOP reps understand the power of MAGA and realize that in spite of the corporate money, the people are not with them.
Many, many, many people like myself began sending the RNC donation requests back to them in their “prepaid” envelopes with nasty notes in them telling them we are done with them, don’t ask again. I’ve also told the RNC telephone solicitors that if Ronna McDaniel is involved, forget it. Don’t call me again.
I suspect the RNC knows the people do not support McDaniel, and now that I know about Dhillon, I still don’t support them.
If only we had a true party that represented “us”…if only
I do that with any mailer from RNC, or anyone like Heritage Foundation associated with Mike Pence and any other non MAGA solicitation.
These people are so fake
No people with plastic faces please!
If you have to fake your appearance
The rest of you is phoney also!
The handiwork of John Durham and Bill (Bondo) Barr .
“Meet the new boss. Same as the old boss …”
We WILL get fooled again?
That saying has been modified a little when it comes to the GOPe and the Uniparty (U-DC) “Meet the new grifter. Same as the old grifter.”
You can not put all the blame on McDaniel although we need a firebrand to run the RNC. When you have McConnell, the Senate leader, spending money and political capitol to defeat republicans running for the Senate and giving money to Dems the problem is not wholly with any particular leader of the the RNC!
Wasn’t Mike Lindell looking into running?
Yes, he’s running.
What autopsy? Stop the fraud, and the party will take care of itself.
Finally! Crystal clarity of the two deadly, inter-locked political parties inhibiting the United States. Thank You SD!
I would vote for Mickey Mouse if it meant McDaniels was ousted.
The RNC has been irrelevant for a long time and one of the main reasons the Conservatives did so poorly for the last two election cycles.
The RNC really doesn’t want to win anything of substance. They simply want to be a mouthpiece for the RINOs.
Scriptures say “the love of money is the root of all evil”, so for their precious filthy lucre they, the GOP, sell US out.
Have you ever noticed that those who love money are never satisfied? Pity, all that money will be a testimony against their evil souls as they suffer eternal conscious torment in fiery hell.
Amen Eliza! and eternity is a very, very loooong time.
OR, if DJT doesn’t play nice with the RNC, the Mark Twain version of the above saying comes to mind….”the lack of money is the root of all evil….”
Election is over.
MASS scrambling>>>Weak/poor results.
Talk, talk…by R’s as usual.
Twitter saga, election saga, etc….(NEVER to have any results)
Dems are on to 2024, sorting/planning/devising HOW to win house back, keep senate and WH.
Meanwhile, conservative tv’s, radio hosts are into all this saga of minutia that means nothing but ratings, clicks and $$$ for them. NOT one thing has been accomplished in last 3-4 elections.
McConnell, McCarthy are in charge, have been in charge..WHAT will change. Absolutely nothing.
Neither should be with election results, but, these are republicans, the nice/kind/sweet party that crosses the aisle.
It’s ALL kabuki theatre.
Any and everything to keep conservatives, republicans, indy’s distracted and outraged while the dems are moving forward and winning.
Yes, this is the sad state of the political landscape.
So what do we do about it? How do we move forward? Guerilla political strategies? Or focus outside the political arena? What are your thoughts on actionable strategies given the current political landscape?
Your Dem vs Republican comparisons are great. Thank you for all you do.
Excellent:
“ the RNC wants money. The DNC wants power. The RNC uses power to get money. The DNC uses money to get power”
Yes, I knew this but, wasn’t able to articulate as clearly.
Also, is gotta be a human failure which causes people to call others names like maybe “troll” when they hear something that opposes the mantra.
Similar to the left calling out the name racism when you criticize them.
Who does Trump support?
NO,NO,NO to dhillon!!!
WE WANT SOMEONE WHO CAN ACTUALLY DO THE JOB!!
WE WANT MIKE LINDELL!!!!!!
People who vote republican are not voting for a party loyalty. Most of those who do vote republication are simply voting for those who we think believe as close to us as possible. Actually that is true with all of it. Repukes have historically represented a more stable liberty, constitution, law and order side. However, we are now finding out that it is true: money corrupts, power corrupts, and there are very few exceptions to the rule. People lie. Listeners don’t ask questions. We are lazy. We want others to do it. We do not verify. Now we are pressed. We either pay attention or we deliberately deny.
In my elder opinion, it is entirely possible for those patriots who vote republican to just shrug. That would be disastrous. Disastrous indeed.
So
Willard’s niece gets thrown under the bus and the Club keeps on ticking with Harlot Millions.
I don’t know anything beyond what I read, and I try to use plenty of salt with it.
My personal view is the republicans realized Ronna was burnt toast and was not going to be re-elected no matter how much butter they rubbed on it. Harmeet was their go-to option to split the vote away from the more conservative wing.
What will Harmeet’s politics be? I don’t know. People are saying she works for Mitch and the club. I will point out that apparently, she also works for President Trump. Does that make her a MAGA insider?
Ronna Romney McDaniel, let’s be sure to fully see who this person is.
ANYONE but Ronna Romney. Zeldin or Dillon would be a huge step forward!
Not Dhillon, she’s no different than Ronna. Mike would be great. On Wed eve Zeldin will announce whether he is running.

This article tee’s up the internal conflict of the RNC perfectly. I don’t know anything but Dhillion, Zeldin, and Lindell seem dramatically smarter than McDaniel. So McDaniel was largely someone(s) puppet – there may be the answer.
There is truth in that. Wesley Hunt has been running for the House the past two cycles. As a nominal Republican he would be better than the nominal Democrat. I get lots of emails from Hunt’s campaigns. Most of them are about achieving fundraising goals by the end of the month, the quarter, the reporting period.
Harmeet arming up with Henry Barbour told me all I needed to know. The fix is in.
I served with Harmeet on the San Francisco GOP Central Committee. I’ve seen her in many roles, both on a personal and an institutional level.
She is a rock star. Principled. Media savvy. Dynamic. Extremely intelligent. Harmeet would make an excellent RNC Chair. If elected, hope might just return for the Republican Party.
She would also make a great VP candidate.. but hey.. just dreaming.
Dhillon has demonstrated she is a a clear enemy of MAGA. Here are just two examples to demonstrate:
(1) Listen to what she said to Dan Ball in his segment on election integrity –she said elections are safe and secure. That questioning elections is “irresponsible.” That Dan Ball’s segment which included video of people stealing ballots was just “propaganda.”

(2) Sundance’s post on Harmeet partnering with Barbour (the Tea Party Killer).

Ye ole switch-a-roo. New boss, same as the old boss.
or worse
Seems like a real easy question….
Harmeet Dhillon: We’ll Remember Those Republicans Who Don’t Stand With Trump…
28 Sep 2019
By Sundance
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2019/09/28/harmeet-dhillon-well-remember-those-republicans-who-dont-stand-with-trump
How many J6’rs has Harmeet got out of jail scot-free?
Repeat performance for those who have not heard what Harmeet really thinks of you yet…
Harmeet Dhillon lost any respect I might have had for her when she treated Dan Ball, a U.S. veteran, and host of the show she was a guest on, to a nasty and totally uncalled for tongue lashing in 2021. I realized then that she is not on our side and never was.
As head of the CA GOP she is why Californians cannot have nice things. To expect her to help anyone who wants our country back is like asking the enemy for help.
She did and does nothing to go after the frauds perpetrating our country. I have said many times since that she and the rest of the hangers on of the political elite coattails don’t care about what is happening because their lives change not one whit. They still take in cash from the next elections hand over fist. They still go to the same cocktail parties and drive nice cars and live in nice houses, behind walls.
The video appears to have been scrubbed from the internet. Not surprising. Queue it up to 28:50 minutes and her segment will begin with the setup regarding the recall election of Gavin Newsom.

Hint: Sheeple
MORE Ukraine $$$..their entire economy is nothing more than US taxes from we the taxpayers.
My God! Why can’t someone “decent” throw their hat into the ring?
Mike Lindell is decent. Per Mike, donors have approached him to express interest in supporting his run. Donors are the real power players behind the RNC –so Mike is considered a serious candidate by some in the donor world.
Lee Zeldin just put out a notice that he will make an official announcement 8pm Wed, Dec 7th as to whether or not he is running.
https://mediarightnews.com/lee-zeldin-breaks-silence-officially-considers-unseating-ronna-mcdaniel-official-announcement-to-come-december-7th/
Mike lit a spark. Think Ronna’s going down. Just hope Dhillon doesn’t slip into her seat.
I doubt Lindell would resign as CEO of My Pillow. Strickly putting limited pressure to get rid of “Romney” McDaniel. With the RNC, money talks, not votes. Unfortunately, “Romney” will be re-elected, in my opinion.
When republicans win an election, they take office.
When democrats win an election, they take power.
Please forgive my thick-headedness, but I’ve had trouble understanding the maxim “The democrats want power. The republicans want money. The DNC uses money to get power. The RNC uses power to get money”. Exactly WHAT “power” does the RNC have when it continues to lose more and more elections?
The only thing I can figure relates to Sundance’s other contention – that the establishment GOP is “controlled opposition”. So viewed in this light, the RNC’s efforts to LOSE elections to the benefit of Democrats is the “power” it uses to get money.
I’d appreciate it if anyone can indulge, clarify and enlighten me. I’ll be the first to admit I’m slow on the uptake and in some other instances Sundance can be too cryptic for my ability to understand, especially when it comes to some of his tweets. Thanks!
No, you understand it. RNC optimally aims for that sweet spot where they can goad you into giving them just a bit more money because they don’t have all the levers of power, so they can’t seem to do anything effectual without X. X can = Senate control, House control, or presidency then insert Y issue, like the repealing the ACA. See, it all falls apart when the dog catches the rear bumper of the car and they won’t actually deliver on the promises even when they have power. So it’s best not to have all the levers of power, just that sweet spot for optimal grift. I think they plan to lose the Senate in GA thinking they can make bank on the 2024 election.
Sounds kind of like getting Thune to replace China Mitch or getting McCarthy to replace Paul Ryan.
An outsider, head of RNC?
Come on man!!!!
They need folks dependent on the Party and can find creative means to get favors/money to family.
If the Dems are reading this thread, the whinging has to have them doing happy dances. Why do we do this? Whine, whine, wh ine. Whinge, whinge, whinge. ????
Not sure if any of these names will work-Dhillon’s connection to the RNC looks particularly suspect, but everyone knows Ronna is a dud. With her, you get a shot at being a trifecta weak loser (’20, ’22,’24) Amazingly stupid that she is even under consideration. She should have resigned already. RNC are on the verge of making complete fools of themselves.
Ya wanna hurt the idiots. A mass don’t pay on April 15th. Taxation without representation day. Keep paying for your own imprisonment, a boatload of grifters and several million illegal alien charity cases. “But..muh credit score”…
Most regular people pay their taxes long before the 15th. It comes out of their check every week, bye weekly, or monthly and there is nothing they can do about it. I just don’t see how that can work.
As an outsider looking in, it seems to me that the only way to kill the two winged turkey – which is the same bird for the DNC & RNC – is to form the Maga Party. If that had been done 6 years ago – they would have already done severe damage to both corrupt organizations. We still see the same talking heads on tv spouting over and over how they will do investigations and bring charges. No charges so far in spite of the hundreds of appearances by people like McCarthy and Lindsey Graham. I feel that as long as the fortunes of the MAGA people rest in the hands of the RNC, I am watching the USA on a rocket ride straight to hell. Time to bail no?
The RNC’s approved leadership menu reminds me of the modern nursing home: Swill #1 and Swill #2, on the menu every day. Looking at those two in the photo, that’s what comes to mind.
With Haley’s Barbour’s kid in the background how could there possibly be much difference. They seem to believe “but the democrats are worse” is the winning argument for preserving their leadership and role.
Even the WINRED fundraising spam has become almost unbearable. It’s as if some of the RNC players are trying to injure the brands of Herschel Walker, Trump, etc., by their relentless and stupidly done spam mail.
They are not the cure. They are the disease.
They look so much alike that if Dhillion was elected a lot of peeps would think it was still McDaniels.
