Rebuilding the Washington GOP with Real Results

By Matthew Hayward

For the GOP to secure meaningful wins in Washington, it’s time to abandon unwinnable, resource-draining races and focus intensely on swing and local races. We need a disciplined, laser-focused strategy that builds a solid portfolio of victories, proving our capacity to make a difference on the ground. Each local or swing win will solidify our standing, making future fundraising easier as we demonstrate real success and the potential for broader influence.

This success must be supported by practical infrastructure. The state party should provide centralized resources, such as a designated printer and sign provider, ensuring no conservative candidate has to waste time or resources on the basics. Every candidate deserves streamlined access to essential campaign tools, removing logistical barriers so they can focus on connecting with voters. Additionally, the party needs to offer strong, professional campaign training—either in-house or through partnerships with top organizations like the Leadership Institute in D.C.—to prepare candidates for disciplined, high-impact campaigns.

Critical to this strategy, however, is a fundamental shift in leadership approach: a come-to-God moment where party leaders let go of pride and embrace true transparency. For the first time, they need to be open and honest, communicating a logical, rational game plan that moves beyond empty rhetoric. This plan must be grounded in results and proven wins. When leaders show they’re willing to back up their words with clear, measurable outcomes, they’ll not only galvanize support but also lay the groundwork for cultivating a farm team of skilled candidates prepared to rise through the ranks, taking our movement’s strength from local victories to statewide impact.

With transparency, strategic resource allocation, and a commitment to winning, the GOP can rebuild from the ground up and become a formidable force across Washington.

Grassroots Revolt Against GOP Elitism

By Matthew Hayward In the complex arena of political strategy, even those who occupy the highest echelons of power can falter, demonstrating a profound disconnect between their strategic intentions and operational execution. The recent failure to secure the endorsement for their preferred candidate, Dave Reichert, is not merely a setback; it is a revealing exposé of the grave strategic missteps at the heart of the Republican party's establishment in Washington State. These seasoned campaigners, these stewards of conservative strategy, have evidently underestimated the critical importance of grassroots engagement. While I acknowledge the logic behind promoting an established politician strategically positioned geographically and perceived as moderate in our swing state—a strategy driven by considerations of electability, which admittedly has its merits—the incessant focus on this argument and complete lack of any meaningful engagement and education has alienated the grassroots yet a...

Could Today Be the Cheapest Price for Bitcoin Ever Again? Here’s Why

By: Matthew Hayward Current price Nov 10, 2024 76.72K 80.43K Is Now the Time to Buy Bitcoin? Bitcoin has come a long way since its early days as a niche digital asset. Today, as we enter another phase in its established four-year cycle , Bitcoin may be at a historic high, but it could soon become the new baseline price. This cycle, which has repeatedly shown Bitcoin’s resilience and long-term growth potential, suggests that the current price might be the lowest we’ll see again. While recent political shifts, including Donald Trump’s landslide election victory, have added new momentum and support for Bitcoin, the timing within the cycle itself makes this an ideal moment to consider buying. A Political Shift: From Anti-Crypto to Pro-Crypto For years, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have faced an uphill battle against a U.S. government determined to restrict and control their growth. This opposition was largely led by Gary Gensler, who waged an outright war against crypto from hi...

When the Census Goes Beyond the Constitution

By Matthew Hayward The Census: From Counting People to Collecting Control The Constitution established the census as a straightforward tool for representation—nothing more, nothing less. Article I, Section 2 mandates an enumeration every ten years to determine how many representatives each state is allotted. That’s it. Simple. Effective. Proportional representation was the goal, and the census was designed to achieve it. So how did we end up here—with government agents asking about the number of bathrooms in our homes, our ethnic identities, and everything in between? This is the creeping hand of central planning at work. What began as a tool to empower individual representation has been twisted into a mechanism to empower bureaucrats, planners, and those who believe they know better than free individuals how to run their own lives. Central Planning: The False Promise of Data The justification for prying into the most intimate details of our lives is always the same: “We need the ...
