FULL TITLE: Koch Brothers Announce Plans to Intervene in GOP Primaries in Support of RINO, Open Border, “Free Trade” Republicans
The Koch Brothers network announced they will intervene in GOP primaries in support of RINO hacks and open borders Republicans.
The Kochs are not happy with the direction of the country under President Trump. They want Paul Ryan-like Republicans who can push trade policies that wipe out the US middle class.
The Washington Examiner reported:
"The Koch political network for the first time plans to intervene in GOP primaries as part of a deliberate 2020 strategy to reverse years of essentially rubber-stamping the Republican Party in general elections.
Disappointed with Republicans in Congress and occasionally at odds with President Trump, the coalition of political groups overseen by Charles Koch has been re-evaluating its engagement in federal campaigns. Playing in GOP primaries to elect more like-minded Republicans to the House and Senate is key tactical adjustment the network has agreed to, with a top Koch official confirming that incumbents could be targeted for defeat.
“We think that if we’re going to be more selective, you know, raise the bar before getting involved, that it makes sense, therefore, to do more primaries,” Tim Phillips, who runs Americans for Prosperity, the Koch grassroots arm, told the Washington Examiner on Thursday while making the rounds at the Conservative Political Action Conference.

They play both sides and win
Sorry, but if open borders is what the GOP wants, I’ll vote for an America First Party.
Rush Limbaugh was major fooled into buying the privileged trade is free trade lie.
Koch Brothers sure suckered Rush for years. His lack of exucation got in the way. Only after middle class workers were decimated, did Rush notice.
Be a shame if the Koch Bros had an accident. Just a shame.
Yes, but that was quite a long time ago-—haven’t heard anything like that from them lately
