In 2019, Alex Clark dreamed up the first ever pop culture daily show from a conservative perspective, POPlitics! From the hottest entertainment news to breaking stories in politics, she reported daily, “without the propaganda.” Alex’s impact on young, conservative women through POPlitics led her to create the “Cuteservative movement.”

&nbsp;

Her unapologetic approach to culture is defined daily by her wit and right-of-center lens. Then in 2021, The Spillover (the big sister to POPlitics), came onto the scene. The Spillover is a daring deep dive into the stories that Alex is compelled by beyond the Hollywood news cycle. With over 2 million downloads to date, every week she leaves her audience on the edge of their seat with stories that challenge, haunt, humor, and captivate. From the dangers of seed oils to hostage situations, and exorcisms to homesteading – each episode leans into the importance of story.

&nbsp;

Today, Alex’s passions and dynamic storytelling have culminated into Real Alex Clark. Each week, she releases entertaining YouTube Shorts, is joined by fellow Turning Point USA Contributors on panels, and creates compelling video essays that are reaching an audience beyond the conservative movement. Whether she’s giving her take on POPlitics LIVE, The Spillover, Fox News, Fox Business, Newsmax, or even on her personal Instagram page – Alex’s unique approach to conservative ideas challenges the status quo of politics and pop culture.

Congresswoman Kat Cammack proudly serves Florida’s Third Congressional District, which includes Alachua, Baker, Bradford, Columbia, Dixie, Gilchrist, Hamilton, Lafayette, Levy, Marion, Suwannee, and Union Counties in North Central Florida. During her first term in 2021-2022, she served as the youngest Republican woman in the 117th Congress.

Kat is a third-generation commercial sandblaster who grew up on a cattle ranch outside Denver, Colorado, participating in local 4-H programs, the local rodeo, and sports. When she was younger, she had hopes of continuing the family business, but shortly before graduating from college at Metro State University Denver, an Obama-era housing program forced her family to lose their small cattle ranch and home. As a result, Kat was motivated to fight back against the failures of big government and has since dedicated her life’s work to fight big government and advance individual freedoms.

She served for nearly a decade as the deputy chief of staff for Florida’s Third Congressional District prior to her election in 2020. While in this role, she advocated for small business owners, veterans and military families, agricultural producers, and hardworking families like her own, motivated by her family’s story. She holds a Master’s Degree in National Defense &amp; Strategic Studies from the United States Naval War College and has used her experience in the national defense.

During the 117th Congress, Kat served on the House Agriculture and Homeland Security Committees, along with the Select Committee on the Economy. While serving on these committees, Kat brought attention to the challenges faced by working-class families and Florida’s farmers, ranchers, and producers with rising inflation, labor challenges, and supply-chain issues. She also worked to highlight the historic border crisis, visiting the southern border and questioning the Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas multiple times before Committee. Now serving in her second term during the 118th Congress, she works to prioritize constituent advocacy and service, fighting for families, national security, and government accountability.

Kat is the proud wife to her husband Matt, a Gainesville native, who serves with the Gainesville Fire Rescue as a firefighter/paramedic and SWAT medic. Kat and Matt have several backyard chickens and ducks and in their rare bit of spare time enjoy spending time with their critters, fishing, football, traveling, and skeet &amp; trap.

Mo is currently serving Alabama’s 5th Congressional District, the Tennessee Valley of North Alabama. Since his election to the U.S. House of Representatives in 2010, he’s been leading the charge for a sustainable, balanced Federal budget, ending illegal immigration, maintaining a strong national defense, and an economic environment that benefits working American families.

In Congress, Mo serves on the Armed Services, Foreign Affairs, and Science, Space and Technology committees. He co-chairs the Space Subcommittee and is past Chairman of the Research and Science Education Subcommittee. Mo was a founding member of the Freedom Caucus, a group of fiscal and social conservative members.

Mo’s record as a proven conservative leader in Congress has been recognized by leading conservative organizations, including the following:

Heritage Action (94% rating)
NRA (“A” lifetime rating)
Club for Growth (86% lifetime rating)
Numbers USA (A+ 100% rating)
American Conservative Union (89% lifetime rating, 94% rating for the 114th Congress)
FreedomWorks (92% rating in 2016), and endorsed by Eagle Forum in 2016.


Growing up in Alabama, it was Mo’s parents who taught him the value of hard work– instilling in him foundational conservative principles from a young age. With his mom as a teacher and his dad as an electrical engineer, his parents expected Mo to study and excel in his pursuits, which he did. After graduating from Grissom High School in Huntsville, Mo attended Duke University, where he graduated in just three years with a double major in political science and economics, with highest honors in economics.

While at Duke, he met Martha and they were married in 1976. They are the proud parents of four children and ten grandchildren.

Mo decided to pursue a career in law, which led him to the University of Alabama Law School. After graduating from law school, Mo worked as a prosecutor in the Tuscaloosa District Attorney’s office, where he built a solid “tough-on-crime” reputation. He obtained guilty verdicts in all of the 20-plus jury trials he prosecuted. He then returned to Huntsville to clerk for presiding Circuit Court Judge John David Snodgrass.

Following his clerkship, Mo decided to practice business law and continue in public service– as an elected official. Mo won election to the Alabama House of Representatives in 1982. At the time, he was just one of eleven Republican legislators (out of 140 total) and the only elected Republican legislator north of Birmingham. He was reelected to the Alabama House in 1983, 1986, and 1990. While in the state legislature, Mo was elected Republican House Caucus Chairman three times and was ranked the number one legislator by the Alabama Taxpayers’ Defense Fund in the fight to protect family incomes from higher taxes. He was also ranked in the top 20% by Alabama Alliance of Business &amp; Industry on pro-jobs, tort reform, and free enterprise issues, and was recognized as one of the legislature’s most effective legislators by Alabama Magazine.

Mo was then appointed as Madison County District Attorney in 1991. Mo was appointed Special Assistant Attorney General for then Attorney General Jeff Sessions from 1995-1996, and was appointed Special Assistant Attorney General for then Attorney General Bill Pryor from 1996-2002.

In 1996, he ran for the Madison County Commission, unseated an eight-year incumbent Republican, and went on to win the general election. Mo was reelected to the Commission in 2000, 2004, and 2008.

During his tenure in the legislature and while on the Madison County Commission, Mo held a second job in private legal practice. And Mo “pinch-hit” as a fill-in radio talk show host for WVNN in 1990 until the new host arrived: a skinny kid named Sean Hannity.

With back-to-back Platinum albums and a grassroots following millions strong, Brantley Gilbert’s music has been shared, covered and adopted as the soundtrack to Saturday night and Sunday morning by audiences around the world. The Georgia native who started as the defiant life-of-the-party can still go ‘til sunrise, but he’s also emerged as something far greater: the leader of a massive tribe of hard-working, fun-loving believers for whom electric guitar-shredding and twang can go hand-in-hand-in-hand. They call themselves the BG Nation, and when the BG Nation watches Gilbert on a stage, they don’t just see a star. They see themselves.

“Tullahoma is the town that made me the man I am,” says Dustin Lynch. “So, as a songwriter now, I can’t help but go back and jump in my boots as a kid or a teenager in high school and write from that frame of mind.”
Lynch has already scored seven #1 singles, four Top 5 albums, eight GOLD and PLATINUM certifications, and membership in the historic Grand Ole Opry. But his current album, TULLAHOMA, marks a true moment of arrival, a leap from rising star to career artist.
TULLAHOMA is Lynch’s most personal and ambitious statement to date, depicting the lives and feelings of small-town America. “There wasn’t an intention to write an album inspired by my hometown,” he explains, “but there was an idea to aim at the character of who that small town boy is, and to write an album that that guy would like, that he would want to play in his truck and try to impress his girl with. Every single song had to check all those boxes or we just tossed it out. It was a very small bull’s-eye, but it was fun.”
Feeling a magnetic pull of the past, power duet “Thinking ‘Bout You (feat. MacKenzie Porter)” [originally released with Lauren Alaina] is his brand-new single, as Lynch gives second life to the passionate tune with heart-pounding hooks and memory-soaked vocals stirring up nostalgic romance, while exes begin to reconnect. TULLAHOMA’s track list also includes Top 10-and-rising single “Momma’s House,” plus consecutive #1 hits: PLATINUM “Ridin’ Roads” and GOLD “Good Girl.”
Among contributions from writers including Florida Georgia Line's Brian Kelley, Old Dominion's Matt Ramsey, and the late producer/songwriter busbee, Lynch has six writing credits on the album (the most he has ever had on one project), and for the first time, collaborated with a single producer, his longtime friend Zach Crowell, for the entire album. “After ‘Small Town Boy’ and ‘Good Girl,’ Zach and I had some confidence in our process,” he recalls. “And it’s a very unique process, sprinkling different instruments on a little bit at a time. There’s no rush. It’s as organic as it can get.”
Since his debut with his 2012 self-titled, #1 album, and PLATINUM breakout “Cowboys and Angels,” Lynch has, in the words of Billboard, "steadily built one of the most consistent recording careers in modern country music.” He has toured with the likes of Luke Bryan, Florida Georgia Line, Brad Paisley, and Thomas Rhett. With over 2.22 BILLION total career streams, Lynch has earned industry recognition with Billboard Music Awards, iHeartRadio Music Awards, and CMT Music Awards nominations.
Lynch’s newfound level of confidence comes through in the driving sound and blazing focus of this latest collection of songs. “My hope for the TULLAHOMA album,” he concludes, “is to show everybody that we know who we are, this is our lane, and we’re going to drive in it for a while.”

<div id="pageContainer2" class="page__3DaXQB8TXp__preview-doc page" data-index="1">Multiplatinum Nashville-based singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Russell Dickerson has established himself a prolific songwriter and powerhouse showman through good old-fashioned performances and eloquent song-craft spiked with spirit. In 2017, his gold-certified full-length debut,Yours, bowed at #5 on theBillboardTop Country AlbumsChart and #1 on the Emerging ArtistsChart.Not to mention, it yielded three consecutive #1 smashes, including the double-platinum “Yours”(christened“One of the hottest wedding songs of the year”byTheKnot), the platinum “Blue Tacoma,”and “Every Little Thing.” Nominations followed at the Academy of Country Music Awards, CMT Music Awards, and iHeartRadio Music Awards. Among many highlights in 2020, he received a nod in the category of“Best New Male Artist of the Year”at the ACM. Plus, he has electrified audiences on tour with the likes of Thomas Rhett, Florida Georgia Line, Darius, Lady A, and Kane Brown in addition to bringing the“RD Party”to sold out venues everywhere as a headliner. Attracting a fervent following on social media (fondly referred to as“RD Fam”), he launched his own YouTube show,“This Is Russ,” bringing viewers deeper into his world. In 2020, he transposes the little pleasures into hummable and heartfelt country anthems uplifted by pop energy on his second full-length album, SouthernSymphony[Triple Tigers], led by the singles “Love You Like I Used To,” “Home Sweet,” and “Never GetsOld.” The record reflects every side of his personality—from the loving husband, self-proclaimed “regular dude,”and now dad at home to the boisterous and bold presence beloved by millions on stage. Russell tells his story like never before through eloquent song craft and airtight playing.</div>

Adam Doleac has always been a go-getter, setting lofty goals as quickly as he achieves them. This high-gear drive has made his life a journey with many destinations, from stadiums as a baseballer to Music Row as a hit songwriter — the mainstage, however, may be his final stop. With his latest two tracks, "Another," and "Meet Me in the City," he updates his fans on where he's headed next, musically and personally. 
"That's one of my favorite things about releasing music," Doleac says. "Every time you put something out, your fans get to learn a little more about you, a little something extra. You can show them what direction you're going in and what you're like just a bit more."  
The rising artist’s new songs follow his major label debut EP, Famous, which arrived via Sony Music Nashville in April 2020. Praised by outlets including Sounds Like Nashville and Roots Music Magazine, who called it a "collection of Doleac's finest moments," the six-song set includes his current single at radio, "Whiskey's Fine," as well as the project’s critically-acclaimed lead single and title track, which topped Sirius XM's The Highway Hot Country Countdown and impacted country radio as one of the week's most-added songs in January 2020. 
But before his accomplishments as a solo artist, Doleac was gearing up for another kind of success. A native of Hattiesburg, Mississippi, he grew up engrossed in athletics, competing heavily in golf, baseball, basketball, and even roller hockey. He also played drums in his spare time, starting a worship band at his church. Whatever fell into his lap, he pursued with equal passion, striving for greatness however and wherever he could. As the second-youngest of four siblings raised by his father, an electrician and entrepreneur, and his mother, a court reporter, Doleac learned the value of hard work at a young age.
"My mom grew up in a one-bedroom house with four sisters and a brother," he says. "So she’s earned everything she has. She's extremely strong-willed, working three jobs through college and just smiling straight through all of it. When we were kids, she used to take my brother and me to her court job, and we would hang out in the benches. I think we picked up on her work ethic pretty early on."
At 12 years old, a starting player in multiple sports, Doleac decided on golf as his primary pursuit. Over the next five years, he became a champion player, ultimately earning a full-ride golf scholarship to Delta State University in his junior year of high school. The following season, to unwind from all his hard work on the fairway, Doleac signed up to play baseball, returning to the sport after a six-year hiatus.
"I thought, 'this will be fun,'" he remembers. "I was playing basketball at the time, too, and I remember walking off the court straight into a batting cage and hitting a bucket of balls. Long story short, I somehow ended up starting in a game that night." 
Doleac went on to start in every game, and he quickly earned himself another full scholarship, this time to play baseball at the University of Southern Mississippi. Taking the offer, the future “hero country needs” (Popdust) enrolled in the college, where he competed at the 2009 College World Series (ten years later, he would pen ESPN’s promo for the same tournament) and launched his career as a singer-songwriter. 
"Most of the guys on the baseball team actually played music," he says. "My roommates always left their guitars littered around the house, and when they left I'd pick one up and start teaching myself little songs."
Doleac immediately fell in love with singing and playing in his off time. With the same perseverance that distinguished him on the sports field, Doleac began honing his music skills, co-writing with teammates and gigging locally. Meanwhile, an original song he’d posted to YouTube was racking up millions of views, eventually piquing the interest of Sony/ATV Nashville’s then-CEO, Troy Tomlinson, who invited him to Nashville for a week of scheduled co-writing sessions. 
Doleac’s trip eventually inspired his move to Music City in 2012, two years after he graduated from USM. After a few years of non-stop co-writing and touring, he signed a publishing deal with Sony/ATV and landed cuts like Kane Brown’s “Pull It Off,” Darius Rucker’s “Don’t,” and Hootie and the Blowfish’s “Rollin’.” All the while, taking center stage as a recording artist was the newcomer’s dream, and soon it began to take shape.  
Adam Doleac, his debut EP, arrived in June 2017 and was praised by outlets like Rolling Stone Country and Billboard. The short-player’s four songs, all co-written by Doleac, spun heavily on Sirius XM’s The Highway, which featured him on its Highway Finds Tour that same year alongside Ashley McBryde and Canadian duo High Valley. He’s also hit the road with headliners like Carrie Underwood, Chris Young, and Kane Brown — in October 2018, Doleac made his Grand Ole Opry debut. 
One short year later, he inked a record deal with Arista Records, which unveiled “Famous” two weeks after his signing. Now, with "Whiskey's Fine" populating country stations across the nation while "Another" and "Meet Me in the City," which Billboard claimed as one of the musician’s most "sonically interesting" songs that "deserves to be heard out of car radios everywhere," earn widespread acclaim, Doleac is continuing his journey as one of country music's fastest-rising stars, stepping into new spaces with implacable determination and sure-footed confidence. As the vocalist himself puts it:
"I'm a go big or go home-type guy. I don't know how to stop in the middle."
If that’s the case, there’s nowhere to go but up.

Two-time ACM New Female Vocalist nominee RaeLynn continues to carve her unique lane in Country music with her gift for storytelling through songwriting, accented by a one-of-a-kind, electric personality. RaeLynn’s EP BAYTOWN – her first since signing to Round Here Records – released in 2020 and has surpassed 65 MILLION streams, adding to her 840 MILLION total career streams. Scoring high-profile features with PEOPLE, American Songwriter, and Entertainment Tonight, she’s stacking acclaim for “a confident, joyous effort” (Billboard) that’s “equally tender-hearted and fiercely fun” (Tennessean). BAYTOWN follows her widely lauded debut WILDHORSE which arrived at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart and was recognized among the best Country albums of 2017 by Rolling Stone, UPROXX and Stereogum. Most recently on Maren Morris’ GIRL: THE WORLD TOUR, she’s also joined Garth Brooks, Keith Urban, FGL, Kane Brown, Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton on the road. With both GOLD (“Love Triangle”) and PLATINUM (“God Made Girls”) singles to her name and nearly 2.5 MILLION followers across her engaging online platforms, her star continues to rise after becoming the first Country face to represent the global beauty brand Too Faced and making her acting debut in Hallmark Channel’s A Nashville Christmas Carol.

Music has always been a part of Lee Greenwood’s life. He started playing the piano when he was seven and the saxophone at 12. In junior high, he started his first group called the Moonbeams. His sister Patricia was the piano player in the band. By the time, he finished High School he played most all the instruments in the orchestra and was the Drum Major for the marching band.

Greenwood was born in Los Angeles California &amp; finished high school in Sacramento in June 1960. He passed on track &amp; music scholarships to the College of the Pacific along with a professional baseball career to pursue his passion for music. He also elected to skip his high school graduation ceremony to begin work at the Golden Hotel &amp; Casino in Reno Nevada with his own band, the “Apollos”. That turned out to be a great choice.

The California native was discovered in 1979 by Larry McFaden, who saw him performing in a show at the Nugget Casino in Sparks, Nevada. Larry was the bass player and bandleader for Mel Tillis. He brought the singer to Nashville and got him signed to the Halsey Agency, who booked The Oak Ridge Boys. He began working with producer Jerry Crutchfield who would record with Lee for the next 20 years.

“Choosing songs to record is always exciting,” says Greenwood. “I’m a songwriter as well and I love lyrics that have depth and emotion. I’m thankful for the many writers &amp; artists who have contributed to my career”.

With seven #1 songs &amp; 25 charted singles to his credit, choosing songs proved to be a success for Greenwood. His country hits include: “It Turns Me Inside Out”, “Ring On Her Finger Time On Her Hands”, ”She’s Lying”, “I Don’t Mind the Thorns If You’re The Rose”, “Dixie Road”, “Somebody’s Gonna Love You”, “Going Going Gone”, “You Got A Good Love Comin”, “Fools Gold”, and “Mornin Ride” while he already garnered several crossover hits such as “Touch &amp; Go Crazy”, “IOU” and the duet with Barbara Mandrell, “To Me”.

Lee Greenwood has won numerous industry awards including, Male Vocalist of the Year from the Academy of Country Music in 1983, two Male Vocalist of the Year awards from the Country Music Association in 1983 &amp; 1984 and a Grammy for Top Male Vocal Performance in 1985 for “I.O.U.”. The CMA also named “God Bless The U.S.A.” its Song of the Year in 1985.

“God Bless the USA” went far beyond what Greenwood expected when he wrote it in the back of his tour bus in 1983. The song has been in the top five on the country singles charts three times (1991, 2001 and 2003), giving it the distinction of being the only song in any genre of music to achieve that feat. It was also #1 on the pop charts after 9/11/01. In addition, CBS News voted “God Bless The U.S.A.” the most recognizable patriotic song in America.

In 2011, Beyonce offered her version of “God Bless the U.S.A.” as a download, with the proceeds going to the 9/11 firefighters fund in NYC. It has been performed by contestants on “American Idol” twice &amp; was the winning song in the 2011 “Dancing with the Stars” competition on ABC. It is performed at all military and patriotic events throughout the year all across America. “USA” has also been in several movies and is now part of the film shown by The Department of Homeland Security when new citizens are sworn in to the United States.

Greenwood says; “USA is the song I always felt the need to write. I wanted to have something that would unite Americans from coast to coast and to instill pride back in the United States. The song represents my family, my community and those men and women who have paid the price for the freedoms we all love and enjoy.”

President George W. Bush appointed Greenwood to serve on the National Endowment of the Arts Council and his appointment was U.S. Senate approved. That Presidential Appointment continued under President Obama and still continues under President Trump.

In 2012, Greenwood released a children’s illustrated book, “Does God Still Bless the U.S.A.,” and ranked #1 on many of the notable Best Sellers Lists. It features a 30 day calendar, “Prayers of a Patriot” and includes two songs, written by Greenwood, free for download in the back of the book. One is a new version of “God Bless the U.S.A.,” and the other is a Praise &amp; Worship song, “Show Me The Way”.

First DJ ever signed to a major Nashville Record Label, RCA Nashville. Dee Jay Silver has been a top touring DJ/remixer/producer for the past 15 years, having played in premier venues in virtually every major market in the U.S., Mexico, and Canada. The groundbreaking open-format DJ/performer has thrilled millions with his unique ability to blend all types of music from hip hop and rock to house and country for crowds of all sizes as well as on mash-ups and remixes. Silver has been traveling the world playing every kind of event and venue from the largest nightclubs, high-profile celebrity parties and exclusive private events to massive sporting events, award shows, major music festivals and arena tours and all that’s in between.
​Silver began DJing while attending college in Arkansas and later moved to Springfield, MO where, while working as a doorman for a club, his interest peaked and he began opening up the dance floor until the headlining DJ would come on. “One gig turned into the next,” he shares of his early beginnings. “Back in the day, you didn’t have computers, YouTube, or schools to learn how to DJ. If you were going to DJ, you had to learn from another DJ. They’d say, ‘I’ll take you under my wing, but this is what you’re going to do.’ Basically, you’re going to be my whipping boy for a couple of years [laughs].”
​His sound has organically evolved throughout his career. “Being up in the Midwest, we looked up to guys like Bad Boy Bill, Alex Peace, Richard Humpty Vission, DJ Irene, and all of those cats in the Chicago area. I’d buy anything they put out. That was where it started for me. It was the hard house from Chicago. Back then, I was playing more hip-hop, house music and rock. Then, it progressed.
​“Growing up in Texas, country music was all I ever heard. I was very versed in country music, so I’ve always mixed it in. I’m so happy to see that ‘Country Remix’ is actually a genre now. Music and DJing to me are about being creative and relating to your crowd. No matter what song it is, people will dance if it’s presented right. If they’re familiar with a song, that’s what makes them more comfortable to have a better time.”
In 2013, Silver signed a recording contract with RCA Nashville, becoming the first DJ to be signed to a major Nashville label. His 2013 EP, Country Club, features creative and rhythmic country mash-ups of some of the format’s most popular and beloved artists, including Alabama, Dolly Parton, Carrie Underwood, Jake Owen, and Love and Theft.
​In April of 2014, Silver launched a nationally syndicated weekly radio show called “The Country Club with Dee Jay Silver”. Each week, the show features up-tempo mixes and mash-ups of hits from country’s biggest stars and newcomers, with an infusion of unique rhythms as well as tracks from other genres. Over 70 markets, including some of the leading country radio stations across America, air the show every Friday and Saturday nights.
​Silver has shared the stage with some of biggest artists in the world. Beyond touring extensively with Jason Aldean (10 years) as well as , Chris Young, Kane Brown, Randy Houser, Florida Georgia Line, Jake Owen, Brad Paisley, Luke Bryan, Rascal Flatts, Eric Church, Cole Swindell, Tyler Farr, Thomas Rhett, Luke Combs, and many more. He’s appeared at many major music festivals, including the CMA Music Festival, Rock The South, Faster Horses, FarmBorough, Watershed, Route 91 Harvest, Lake Shake Festival, Carolina Country Music Festival, Tortuga Music Festival and more. In addition to spinning at football games for the Tennessee Titans, Dallas Cowboys and University of Kentucky’s Wildcats, events for the Super Bowl, NASCAR races, National Finals Rodeo, and was the first DJ to ever play the Academy of Country Music Awards (ACMs) and the American Country Awards (ACAs). In 2016, Silver played at the MLB All-Star Game in San Diego CA, Wrigley Field in Chicago, and Fenway Park in Boston (alongside Jason Aldean and Kid Rock) to add to the impressive list of venues he’s performed at.
When not on tour, or at one of his many appearances, the current Nashville resident is also hosting  residencies in Las Vegas, NV, Atlantic City NJ, San Diego, CA, and Nashville TN.
Odds are the in-demand producer will be at an arena, amphitheater, stadium, club, pool or festival near you. Look for new original music from DEE JAY SILVER anywhere you stream or buy your music, as well as new music to released soon!

Ted, his wife Heidi, their two daughters Caroline and Catherine, and his entire family have been blessed to live the American Dream—the idea that anyone, through hard work and determination, can achieve anything. Ted is committed to ensuring every family has that same opportunity.

Ted grew up in Texas. His father, Rafael, fled Cuba after being tortured and imprisoned and came to Texas with just $100 sewn into his underwear. Rafael got a job washing dishes making 50 cents an hour and learned English. He worked hard and attended the University of Texas at Austin, earning a degree in mathematics. He later started a small business in the oil and gas industry. Today, Rafael is a pastor in Dallas.

Ted’s mother, Eleanor, was born in Delaware to an Irish and Italian working-class family. She became the first in her family to go to college, graduating from Rice University with a degree in mathematics. She broke boundaries at Shell as one of the few women working as a computer programmer at the dawn of the computer age.

Ted earned his undergraduate degree from Princeton and his law degree from Harvard Law School. After law school, Ted clerked for Chief Justice Rehnquist and then worked in private practice. In 1999, Ted joined George W. Bush’s campaign for president as a domestic policy advisor. The best thing about Ted’s experience on the Bush-Cheney campaign, by far, was meeting Heidi Nelson, who also worked on the policy team. Heidi and Ted married after the campaign.

After working at the Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission during the Bush administration, Ted moved back home to be the Solicitor General of Texas. As Solicitor General, Ted argued eight cases before the Supreme Court of the United States, and defended our freedom of speech, our right to keep and bear arms, and our religious liberty in courts across the nation. Following his service as Solicitor General, Ted returned to private practice, where he continued to litigate high stakes cases and argued his ninth case before the Supreme Court.

Ted and Heidi also started their family, welcoming Caroline and Catherine.

In 2013, Ted was sworn into the United States Senate, where he has been a passionate fighter for limited government, economic growth, and national security. He has authored dozens of legislative measures that have been signed into law, including expanding 529 college savings accounts to allow parents to save for K-12 public, private, and religious education, repealing Obamacare’s individual mandate, imposing sanctions on terrorists who use civilians as human shields, designating North Korea as a state sponsor of terrorism, targeting Putin’s Nord Stream 2 pipeline through multiple bills that halted construction and kept it stalled, reauthorizing and reforming NASA, holding dictatorships in South America accountable, and ensuring the availability of additional records to help solve civil rights cold cases.

Ted is honored to serve as the top Republican on the Commerce Committee, a position that gives him the chance to have a far-reaching impact on innovation and growth across the landscape of daily life. As Ranking Member, he is focused on furthering innovation in the telecommunications space, protecting Americans’ privacy and security, helping Americans travel safely and more efficiently, and ensuring that the U.S. continues to lead the world in space exploration.

He is also leading the fight in the Senate to support Texas jobs, rein in Big Tech, secure the border, and fundamentally reassess the U.S.-China relationship and hold the Chinese Communist Party accountable for covering up the coronavirus pandemic, committing human rights atrocities, and engaging in censorship, propaganda, and espionage in the United States.

Madison Cawthorn is an 8th generation resident of North Carolina’s 11th Congressional district. His ancestors have served Western North Carolina communities for over 200 years including in the Revolutionary War.

Madison was homeschooled in Hendersonville and received a full ride ROTC scholarship to NC State and was also nominated to the U.S. Naval Academy by Rep. Mark Meadows in 2014. However, Madison’s plans were derailed that year after he nearly died in a tragic automobile accident that left him partially paralyzed and in a wheelchair.

With the incredible support of his family, friends, and thousands of patriots from across Western North Carolina and the country, Madison Cawthorn achieved the unthinkable on November 3, 2020. As the youngest Congressman in modern history, Madison Cawthorn set out to prove his critics wrong and his supporters right, and he did just that!

In an effort to stay close to his constituents — his bosses — Madison Cawthorn opened four offices across Western North Carolina and immediately got to work fighting for the community.

While Joe Biden and Kamala Harris refused to even acknowledge the humanitarian crisis unfolding on our southern border, Madison Cawthorn decided to fly down to South Texas to personally investigate.

As Nancy Pelosi flexed her tyranny through anti-science mask mandates and high-security barriers around the Capitol, Madison Cawthorn made sure she understood — at every opportunity — that her actions were unacceptable and the American people are watching.

Matt is married to Ginger Gaetz and has one son, Nestor, who he has described raising as “the most rewarding thing I’ve done in my life.”

Since Northwest Florida is home to strategic military installations such as Eglin AFB, Hurlburt Field, and NAS Pensacola, Matt has made it a priority to ensure the military has extraordinary capabilities to protect America. During the FY2022 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), Matt secured numerous provisions, including an amendment to increase the Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) to service members in the district, and a $600 million in funding for Military Construction Projects throughout the district and enhancements to the Golf Test Range.

Dr. Sebastian Gorka’s ascent could not have been more unusual, or more of a true “American Story.” To find out how it began, you have to go back to the 1950s, to Communist controlled Hungary.

Hoping for freedom after the utter devastation of the Second War, the proud nation of Hungary was instead taken over by a Stalinist dictatorship subordinate to Moscow. One young man, who had suffered under the Nazis, decided to resist and so Paul Gorka created a secret Christian student organization to subvert the Communist stranglehold of his homeland. Paul was eventually betrayed by the British double-agent Kim Philby, arrested by the Secret Police, tortured and then given a life sentence for fighting for democracy and liberty. After two years in solitary confinement, two years down a prison coal mine, and two years in the central political prison in Budapest, Paul was eventually liberated by the brave freedom fighters of the Hungarian Revolution of 1956.

In 2008 he moved to America with his family where he continued to work for the Defense Department and become a proud American citizen in 2012. He obtained his doctorate in Political Science from Corvinus University in Budapest and was a fellow at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government. In Washington, he served as Associate Dean for Congressional Affairs and Relations to the Special Operations Community at National Defense University and has also taught on the Masters program at Georgetown University.

A history-making woman leader, GOP kingmaker and beloved “Mama Grizzly,” Governor Sarah Palin’s maverick personality, spot-on political instincts and deep connection with “the silent majority” of American voters have made her one of the most influential women in conservative politics. As one of the earliest endorsers of President Trump, Governor Palin injected vital support and game-changing momentum at a critical juncture in the battle for the Republican nomination.
Today, Governor Palin continues to fight for the millions of Americans that are often overlooked by Washington and the mainstream media. As an unforgettable keynote speaker, she shares her own life journey of overcoming challenges by putting family first and finding strength in her deep Christian faith. Drawing full houses and standing-room-only crowds, Sarah Palin calls upon all Americans—of all political persuasions and beliefs—to get motivated, get involved and join together to build a brighter future.

Known for her meteoric rise from first female (and youngest) Governor of Alaska to first woman on the GOP presidential ticket, Governor Palin has captured hearts and minds around the world with her outspoken honesty, fearless principles and passionate personality. Recognized as one of TIME’s “100 Most Influential People” and Forbes’ 100 Most Powerful Women,” Governor Palin is also one of only 21 women on Smithsonian’s “100 Most Significant Americans of All Time” list. In election after election, her endorsement and the support of her political action committee, SarahPAC, are considered the gold standard for conservative candidates. A devoted mother and grandmother, Governor Palin has shared her family’s personal experiences raising a Down syndrome child and having a son deployed overseas to advocate for children with special needs, military families and those who serve. Governor Palin is the author of four books. Her memoir, Going Rogue: An American Life and inspirational book, America by Heart: Reflections on Family, Faith and Flag were immediate bestsellers. Good Tidings and Great Joy: Protecting the Heart of Christmas called for bringing back the freedom to express the Christian values of the season. Her most recent book, Sweet Freedom: A Devotional applies biblical principles to contemporary issues. An avid sportswoman, known as “First Lady of the Outdoors,” Governor Palin hosted Amazing America with Sarah Palin on the Sportsman Channel and starred in Sarah Palin’s Alaska on TLC. She was also a Fox News political commentator. Governor Palin’s long record of achievement in public office includes two terms as mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, two terms on the Wasilla City Council and Chair of the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, where she shaped energy policy. While mayor of Wasilla, she was elected President of Alaska’s Conference of Mayors. Governor Palin graduated from the School of Journalism at the University of Idaho and worked as a sportscaster in Anchorage before entering public service.

Speaking from the heart and the heartland, Sarah Palin’s rousing, refreshingly candid keynotes are filled with the homespun stories of everyday Americans, history-making political players and the challenges that she has faced as a leader, mother, wife, public servant and political candidate. With honesty, humor and her signature zingers, Governor Palin celebrates traditional, small town conservative values that are grounded in faith, family and patriotism. Audiences leave motivated, informed, entertained and uplifted by one of the most notable American women of our time.

Donald J. Trump is the 45th President of the United States. He believes the United States has incredible potential and will go on to exceed even its remarkable achievements of the past. His campaign slogan for President was, “Make America Great Again,” and that is exactly what he is doing.
&nbsp;
Donald J. Trump defines the American success story. Throughout his life he has continually set the standards of business and entrepreneurial excellence, especially in real estate, sports, and entertainment. Mr. Trump built on his success in private life when he entered into politics and public service.  He remarkably won the Presidency in his first ever run for any political office.
&nbsp;
A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Finance, Mr. Trump followed in his father’s footsteps into the world of real estate development, making his mark New York City. There, the Trump name soon became synonymous with the most prestigious of addresses in Manhattan and, subsequently, throughout the world.
&nbsp;
Mr. Trump is also an accomplished author. He has written more than fourteen bestsellers.  His first book, The Art of the Deal, is considered a business classic.
&nbsp;
Mr. Trump announced his candidacy for the Presidency on June 16, 2015. He then accepted the Republican nomination for President of the United States in July of 2016, having defeated seventeen other contenders during the Republican primaries.
&nbsp;
On November 8, 2016, Mr. Trump was elected President in the largest Electoral College landslide for a Republican in 28 years. Mr. Trump won more than 2,600 counties nationwide, the most since President Ronald Reagan in 1984. And he received the votes of more than 62 million Americans, the most ever for a Republican candidate. These voters, in delivering a truly national victory and historic moment, rallied behind Mr. Trump’s commitment to rebuilding our country and disrupting the political status quo that had failed to deliver results.
&nbsp;
Mr. Trump won, in part, because he campaigned in places Republicans have had difficulty winning—Flint, Michigan, charter schools in inner-city Cleveland, and Hispanic churches in Florida.  He went there because he wanted to bring his message of economic empowerment to all Americans. Millions of new Republicans trusted Mr. Trump with their vote because of his commitment to delivering prosperity through a reformed tax code, an improved regulatory environment, and better trade deals. President Trump’s victory has brought Americans of all backgrounds together, and he is committed to delivering results for the Nation every day he serves in office.
&nbsp;
President Trump has been married to his wife, Melania, for twelve years, and they are parents to their son, Barron.  Mr. Trump also has four adult children, Don Jr., Ivanka, Eric, and Tiffany, as well as ten grandchildren.
&nbsp;

Raised in rural Missouri, U.S. Senator Josh Hawley previously served as Missouri’s Attorney General. There he earned a reputation for taking on the big and the powerful to protect Missouri workers and families. He has battled big government and big business, special interests, organized crime, and anyone who would threaten the well-being of Missourians.

A native of small town Lexington, Missouri in rural Lafayette County, Senator Hawley graduated from Rockhurst High School in Kansas City. After graduating from Stanford University in 2002 and Yale Law School in 2006, he moved back home to mid-Missouri with his wife, Erin, where they started a family. They are the proud parents of three young children: Elijah, Blaise, and Abigail.

Senator Hawley is recognized as one of the nation’s leading constitutional lawyers. He has litigated at the Supreme Court of the United States, the federal courts of appeals, and in state court, fighting for the people’s liberties. He previously fought Obamacare at the Supreme Court — and won — as one of the lead attorneys in the landmark Hobby Lobby case. He was also a lead attorney in the Hosanna-Tabor case at the Supreme Court, protecting the rights of churches.

Since taking office, Senator Hawley has been a leading champion in Congress for working families. He’s worked across the aisle to deliver protections for kids online, led the fight for direct payments to working people during the COVID-19 pandemic, and taken steps to crack down on predatory landlords. Senator Hawley has also rolled out proposals to protect American workers from foreign trade cheating, especially from China, and has been an advocate for ending the offshoring of jobs and boosting manufacturing the United States.

Senator Hawley has taken on corporate special interests to level playing field for the American worker as well. He boldly stood up to the abuses of Big Tech and Wall Street and has worked to reign in the power of these mega companies while championing innovation, entrepreneurship, and small businesses. Senator Hawley has also worked to keep our communities safe by confronting illegal immigration, and challenging big opioid manufacturers and human traffickers – during his time as the former Attorney General of Missouri and in the U.S. Senate. As a fierce defender of the Constitution, Senator Hawley is committed to protecting Missourians’ First and Second Amendment rights.

Senator Hawley serves on the Senate Committees on the Judiciary, Armed Services, Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, and Small Business and Entrepreneurship.

He became the youngest chief of pediatric neurosurgery in the country at age 33.

Rick Scott was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2018 and is currently serving his first term representing the state of Florida. Prior to his election to the U.S. Senate, Rick Scott served two terms as the 45th Governor of Florida, working every day to turn around Florida’s economy and secure the state’s future as the best place for families and businesses to succeed.  Scott grew up in public housing in the Midwest as his adoptive father, a World War II veteran and truck driver, and his mother, a store clerk, struggled to financially support their family. After marrying his high school sweetheart, Ann, Scott joined the Navy, where he served active duty as a radar man aboard the USS Glover. He used the G.I. Bill to attend the University of Missouri, Kansas City, and eventually opened his first business – a donut shop. Scott went on to run the world’s largest healthcare company and continues to fight every day so families across the state can have the same opportunities he had to live the American dream.

&nbsp;

Rick Scott knows firsthand that a good paying job is one of the most important things for a family, and following Florida’s economic collapse ten years ago, he made the decision to run for governor as a businessman with no political experience. During his term as Governor, he successfully championed more than $10 billion in tax cuts and cut thousands of burdensome regulations that led Florida businesses to create nearly 1.7 million new jobs. Under his leadership, the unemployment rate dropped from 11 percent to 3.3 percent, Florida paid down $10 billion in state debt, and record investments were made in what matters most to Floridians – education, the environment, and public safety.

Rick Scott and his wife, Ann, have been married for 48 years and have two daughters, Allison and Jordan, six grandsons, Auguste, Quinton, Sebastian, Eli, Louie and Jude, and one granddaughter, Zelda Ann.

Governor Kevin Stitt is leading Oklahoma with a vision to become Top Ten in job growth, infrastructure, education and more.

He is an entrepreneur who founded Gateway in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 2000. Starting with only $1,000 and a computer, he grew Gateway into a nationwide mortgage company operating in 42 states and servicing more than $20 billion in residential mortgages. In 2018, he led Gateway through a merger and established Gateway First Bank, which today is one of Oklahoma’s 10 largest banks by assets with over $2 billion in assets, 166 mortgage centers across the U.S., and more than 1,600 employees.

Oklahomans spoke in record numbers that they wanted Stitt to use his business acumen to transform the state. In 2018, he received more votes than any gubernatorial candidate in state history in his first bid for elected office of any kind.

Governor Stitt has taken a groundbreaking approach to his administration by appointing the most female cabinet secretaries in state history and tapping expert advisors from the private sector, including the first chief operating officer in state history.

He is committed to delivering taxpayers more for their money, and his fiscally conservative leadership helped the state build its largest savings account in history, which proved to be prophetic in the face of an oil and gas downturn.

Stitt is a fourth-generation Oklahoman and a graduate of Oklahoma State University. He and his wife, Sarah, have been married for 24 years and they have six children.
