What happened to the young men who voted GOP in 2024? “The reality is those voters did not become conservatives [in 24]. They became open to hearing what conservatives had to say," says @KSoltisAnderson at The Forum. They now need to hear what the right can do to make their lives better.

"How do we create a generation of capitalists? How do we create a generation of Americans who appreciate that the solution to affordability is not greater regulation, but greater, personal autonomy and all the things that we care about?"

🚨Chairman Harris hits back at Leader Thune's claim Reconciliation 3 will get bogged down by amendments:

"I say to Leader Thune, suck it up. That's the legislative process...

If you want a job where you're not dealing with amendments, I suggest you don't go to a legislature."

The American Dream isn’t a thing of the past. We have always believed that every American should have the opportunity to build a good life, provide for their family, and leave something better for the next generation. That’s a promise worth fighting for.

@chiproytx at The Forum 2026.

[Heritage Foundation @Heritage]

People need to feel like they have a stake in the American Dream. A chance to build something, own something, and make life better for their family and their community.

"No more excuses. No more garbage about filibuster this, filibuster that. I don’t want to hear any of the nonsense out of this town. I want delivery of freedom. I want delivery of limited government. I want delivery of security on our border, delivery of security on our streets, and I want everybody to shut the hell up if they’re not doing those things."

When men were sitting in the foxholes at the Bastogne, they weren’t fighting for millions of dollars in debt, they were fighting for America. We need to communicate what America is. For those men who fought for this country and have died for this country - Chip Roy paraphrased

[Heritage Foundation @Heritage]

“I think there’s something that helps for Republicans now and for building for the future, which is those issues represent protecting children and protecting families, and there are things that I think Republicans did not capitalize on from the COVID era.”

.@bdomenech at The Forum 2026: You can’t win hearts and minds with bullet points. We have to connect with Americans, show them why our ideas matter in their everyday lives, and communicate in a way that resonates.

[Heritage Foundation @Heritage]

.@KevinRobertsTX at The Forum 2026: It’s not enough to call out socialism. We have to show Americans what it costs them and why our ideas work.

Election analysis at The Forum with @RobertBluey, @mkhammer, @KSoltisAnderson, and @bdomenech: The fact that several left-wing ballot initiatives lost is cause for hope. @Heritage

Hell no to amnesty.

I’m thrilled to moderate a discussion today with @ScottJenningsKY and @spencerpratt about how conservatives can broaden our appeal and build the coalition for what comes next at The Forum! @Heritage

Not only are the Texas Dems uninterested in doing anything about affordability, they’re not going to do anything about corruption either.

This adds up to about $28 a week to Texas’ 11 million “households”. A household, of course, could consist of 4, 5, 6+ people. So the new Governor’s first policy to combat affordability is to deplete our emergency fund to give people $4 or 5 dollars a week.

[Texas Tribune @TexasTribune]

A new bill would send $1,500 to every Texas household, advancing a campaign pledge by Gov.-elect Gina Hinojosa. But the $17 billion plan needs significant GOP support and Texas would have to build a system to distribute the money.
