... American Ascent launches Monday with an eye toward building a bench of young conservatives that could flip some of the dozens of congressional seats that will be held by aging lawmakers in 2028.
The 501(c)(4) will be run by Ryan Neuhaus, the former Heritage Foundation chief of staff. Its partners include an array of new-right allies of Vice President JD Vance, including Turning Point Action, which has already endorsed Vance for president in 2028, as well as the conservative think tank Claremont Institute and the watchdog group Oversight Project.
A PAC that has backed challenges to other GOP incumbents led by Andy Surabian, a longtime aide to both Vance and Donald Trump Jr., will also partner closely with the effort.

"For too long, the Republican Party has relied on rerunning candidates over and over again," Neuhaus said. "The American people told us pretty clearly that they want to see younger, more energetic politicians leading in America, representing them.

love the idea but no chance. Get the freeloaders in the cites out to a farm?

Okay....I'm kidding......I don't mean to call them freeloaders.....except that I did.
But........they would be worthless on a farm.
