Bad policy, bad character make bad politics: erratic tariffs, impulsive Iran war, blanket pardons, apparent corruption, weaponized justice, ICE brutality, mountainous deficits, hiding Epstein, abandoning allies and coddling enemies. Hoping for a course correction, for the country and for my party.

Trump has spent a decade purging conservatism—constitutional, economic, and even social (in the deepest sense of humility and respect for others)—from the Republican Party. We should take solace in this absolute defeat because it’s a real chance to rebuild American conservatism.

In 2019, during the first Trump Administration, I wrote: “One day in the not too distant future, Republicans will wake up and say, ‘We did this for this man?’” It’s taken longer than I thought, but I think that day is finally coming.

Prosperity and peace are imminently attainable for everyone in this country. We need merely to transcend the parties that keep us fighting each other, throw off the corporate and foreign influence on our government, and return to the principles laid out in our Constitution.

“America's brand was never R or D, it's independent.” Matthew McConaughey reminds us that this November our choices don't stop at two parties.

Matthew McConaughey gets to the heart of what independence means: thinking for ourselves instead of letting political parties define what we believe.

She didn't just break with her party. She resigned to do it. Montana Democratic Chair Shannon O’Brien stepped down, then endorsed independent Seth Bodnar over her own party’s Senate nominee. IVN author Matt Shinners has the story. ivn.us/montana-democratic-ch… #IndependentCandidates #Montana #Midterms2026

Both parties spend all day arguing over the details while the underlying problems go unfixed. Independents are focused on getting to work and finding solutions that actually help us.

"The number of self-identified Democrats and Republicans has shrunk significantly. There are now nearly as many independents as there are Democrats and Republicans put together, creating more favorable conditions for third-party candidates..." 👀 thedispatch.com/article/thir…

I just want a party that follows the Constitution. Is that too much to ask? 🤷🏻‍♂️

There is something so unAmerican and so disturbing about an American president demeaning and poking fun at a fellow American president in the presence of a communist leader, while the previous president is battling cancer. It’s just so sickening.

We shouldn’t have to wonder whether our elected officials will step outside the party line when doing what’s right calls for it. Wanting independent leadership isn’t radical. It’s reasonable.

A record 45% of Americans now identify as political independents, tied with Republicans and Democrats at 27% each. Highest share Gallup has recorded since 1988. The generational gap is stark: 56% of Gen Z vs. 40% of Gen X at the same age. #independentvoters #2026midterms #iamindependent

Listening to Independent U.S. Senate candidate Seth Bodnar in MT, one thing comes through pretty clearly: he wants things to actually get better for the people who live there. That’s something we can all get behind. #iamindependent #ilc

We’ve been told the two-party system is the only way to get things done. In 2026, we’re going to see more independents on the ballot than any time in American history. Together, we're going to prove that they can run and win. #iamindependent #ilc

I’m sorry if you’re a Republican and don’t want to hear this but the National Debt is $3.6 Trillion higher than when Trump took office 18 months ago. Here’s the 90 second speech I gave the night they passed the Big Bankruptcy Bill.

Let me explain this absurd ruse: The Pentagon is pretending there have been two Iran wars separated by a brief cease-fire. The reality: By going more than 90 days without congressional authorization @SecWar IS BREAKING THE LAW and must be held accountable.
The Pentagon removed the names of 4 servicemembers who died in Jordan from their official list of casualties. They explain that this is because "their deaths occurred after President Trump declared a cease-fire in the war in April." Free gift link: nytimes.com/2026/07/23/us/po…
