Republicans on Saturday narrowly picked an activist who has promoted unfounded election conspiracies and promised a shakeup to lead the Kansas GOP for the next two years, following weeks of infighting that mirrors the acrimony in the party across the U.S.
Within 30 minutes of the change in the Kansas Republican Party’s leadership, its state committee reviewed a resolution demanding that the U.S. House impeach President Joe Biden for “tyranny” over comments he and his aides made in the summer of 2021 decrying misinformation about coronavirus vaccines spreading within the GOP. The committee tabled the resolution until its next meeting.
The Kansas state committee elected Mike Brown, who has long been active in the GOP in the Kansas City area, as its new chair through the 2024 elections. The vote came three months after Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly narrowly won reelection and the only Democrat in the state’s congressional delegation, U.S. Rep. Sharice Davids, won another term handily in her Kansas City-area district.
The Kansas party’s retiring chair, Mike Kuckelman, and its two other Republican National Committee members supported RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel when she won reelection last month. But Brown called on McDaniel to resign in December, and he said Saturday that the national GOP is seeing an internal “uprising” from members still upset over COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.
“The RNC needs to be paying very close attention to that,” Brown said. “It is the future of our party.”

About time.
COVID mentioned in this story and the only Republicans who had guts to take out vaccine mandates and mask orders including the ones that the health care industry still has in place were the Republicans in Montana.
GOP sucks up to Big Business like Pharma-Health Care those interests need to be put in their place.
What business is this of the maggots, ticks and lice in Seattle? They should worry about their own politics.

When if ever, do these turds stop referring to the theft of the election as unfounded and debunked
? When the scumbags that committed the crime are jailed that’s when.
Isn’t everyone a conspiracy promoter to some degree? Some way more. Some a little less.
Everything is a conspiracy until the news can no longer hide it. Then it instantly becomes “move on, old news, nothingburger”
Yep. Kansas may be reliably red, but there are a lot of RINOs. We just reelected puke Jerry Moran.
“unfounded election conspiracies“
Unfounded my ass
More white fascist noise from seattle. Who cares!
When the country-club, RINO, no-social-issues Republicans abandoned the Republican gubernatorial candidates and vote for Laura Kelly and before that, Kathleen Sebelius, then this is what happens. They lose their say in the party.

That’s exactly right!
They love to self-righteously say “that’s not who we are.”
Well, we’ve noticed.
Seattle tries to pick GOP leaders.
I bet they picked Jeb too.
One of the biggest political myths around, “Kansas is reliably Red”. As you point out, Jerry Moran was easily reelected. He reliably votes against the interests of Kansas Conservatives and now has six years to continue that behavior.
The original Kansas Republicans were from Massachusetts and Connecticut and came to Kansas to make it a Free State. Their Descendants are still Republicans and they are still New England Liberals, just like their forebearers. Many of these folks are now Democrats, but the Kansas Republican Party is still full of them and the Party is run by these Left Wingers.
