Republican Losses Offer Wake-Up Call Ahead of 2026

By: Matt Vespa | Townhall Last night was ugly. The major races in Virginia and New Jersey were killing fields for the GOP. But keep in mind one thing: these are blue states, and they acted like it. Republicans got swept in these key races. Republicans in Virginia lost the governor, lieutenant governor, and attorney general races.

Garbo: Let the purists prune—a thought exercise in Republican renewal

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice The below op-ed is a thought exercise - a structured hypothetical meant to test assumptions, reveal contradictions, and sharpen our understanding by playing out ideas to their logical end. It is not a forecast or a policy proposal. It’s a lens designed to examine the mindset, strategy, and consequences of a particular ideological posture within the Republican Party. Specifically, I explore what happens when purist Republicans are given full authority to define and reshape the party without reasonable question or resistance. No opposition, no internal debate, no moderating voices - just a blank check to purge, label, and remake the GOP according to their uncompromising standards.  Rather than argue with them, I follow the...
