My Exile From “Bona Fide” GOP Status (Op-Ed)

Based On Behind-The-Scenes Machinations By The Local Political Establishment, The TRP Nullified My Election In A Farcical Show Trial And Subsequently Appointed A Crony To Fill My Seat. The Basis For My Nullification Was That I – A Lifelong GOP Voter And Activist–Am Purportedly Not A “Bona Fide” Republican. I Was Exiled. Invalidated As A Republican. Banished To Persona Non Grata Status. But I Continue To Receive Fundraising Solicitations From The TRP!

The Establishment Strikes Back: Purging The MAGA Agenda In Tennessee (Op-Ed)

Tennesseans Deserve Better Republican Leaders. More Accurately, Tennesseans Deserve Leaders Who Actually Represent The Republican Platform And Republican Voters. The RINOs Have Made It Clear That They Want To Purge Conservatives From The TRP. I Say, Turn The Tables. It Is Time For Tennessee Conservatives To Eradicate RINOs. The Establishment Can Buy Influence With The TRP Through Campaign Contributions And PAC Support. To Overcome This Advantage, The Grassroots Must Mobilize And Use Our Superior Numbers To Demand Change. This Means Forming Conservative Groups, Recruiting Primary Opponents, And Getting Engaged In Every County Across The State Of Tennessee.

Tennessee Stands And The Tennessee Conservative News Have Proven That Conservatives Can Move The Needle Through Grassroots Activism. Rather Than Be Discouraged By My Election Nullification And The Attempted Cancellation Of Gary Humble In Blount County, We Should Use These Events As A Rallying Cry. Tennesseans Fought Valiantly At The Alamo. Sam Houston, Who Grew Up In Blount County, Defeated Santa Anna’s Army At The Battle Of San Jacinto, Just As Andrew Jackson’s Militia Forces Vanquished The British Army Led By Major General Edward Pakenham At The Battle Of New Orleans. It Is Time For Tennessee Conservatives To Show The Establishment What Volunteers Can Do When Provoked.

Isn’t The Republican Party Supposed To Stand For Election Integrity?

Last Month, I Ran As A Write-In Candidate For The Tennessee Republican Party State Executive Committee In District 2—A Position That No One Else Wanted—And Garnered Over 300 Votes By GOP Primary Voters On Election Day. Over A Month Later, On September 7, I Discovered That The “Club” Doesn’t Want Me As A Member. The SEC, Sitting As The “State Primary Board,” Purported To Nullify My Election, After The Votes Were Cast On August 4 And Certified By The Secretary Of State On September 1. Retroactive Nullification Of Elections–A Hallmark Of Banana Republics—Is Common In The Third World But Not A Typical Feature Of American Politics.
