“It’s almost like there’s a massive uniparty grift machine here in D.C.”
Those words were tweeted out by Elon Musk as DOGE revealed most government abuses.
And now the uniparty most wanted list was just crystalized in this must-see picture.
MAGA knows how to party
There are two phrases most associated with the political movement sparked by Donald Trump – “Make America Great Again” (MAGA), and “America First.”
In fact, there’s even a non-profit organization advancing the platform of President Donald Trump, the America First Policy Institute (AFPI).
AFPI is headed up by Trump-favorites Linda McMahon and Larry Kudlow.
The team also includes such notable names as Kellyanne Conway, Ken Blackwell, Lou Holtz, Riley Gaines, Bobby Jindal, Carla Sands, Phil Bryant, and Steve Moore.
This is the group that hosted the event last December where Sylvester Stallone went viral for heaping praise on President Trump.
“He (Rocky Balboa) was a chosen person, and that’s how I began the journey – something was going to happen, this man was going to go through a metamorphosis and change lives, just like President Trump,” Stallone said during a rousing speech. “We are in the presence of a really mythical character. I love mythology – and this individual does not exist on this planet. Nobody in the world could have pulled off what he pulled off. So, I’m in awe. I’ll just say this – and I mean – when George Washington defended this country, he had no idea that he was going to change the world. Without him, you could imagine what the world would look like. Guess what. We got the second George Washington. Congratulations . . . please welcome the President of the United States, Donald Trump, thank you.”
Along with Stallone introducing the keynote speaker, Trump, The America First Experience & Gala included segments from some of the biggest names on the Right.
McMahon, Kudlow, Vivek Ramaswamy, Argentinian President Javier Milei, and Elon Musk all joined Stallone and Trump as speakers.
But now, the Never Trump crowd thinks they can outdo Trump’s America First event with an event of their own.
Never-Trumpers launch summit
Running opposite of AFPI, and maybe just slightly right of your pick of any George Soros-funded organization, is Principles First.
The name is somewhat ironic, given that the 501c(4) non-profit organization’s “Declaration of Principles” page on its website reads a lot like a conservative group would—speaking tough on issues like national sovereignty and objecting to leftist buzzwords like “equity.”
It appears what separates Principles First from AFPI is simply, that “the right and center-right” founders – as their website describes them – just don’t like President Trump.
And they seem to largely use January 6 as an excuse to fuel the so-called “resistance” movement.

This week, Principles First is holding a summit of their own taking place this coming weekend.
You can see a poster featuring some of the speakers in the tweet above.
And the list of supposed “dignitaries” says all you need to know about who and what Principles First truly is.
The self-proclaimed “right and center-right” Principles First has put together the largest gathering of anti-Trump speakers since the Democrat National Convention.
Starting at the Friday night reception, the head of “Republican Voters Against Trump” and executive director of “Leaving MAA” will both be welcoming attendees.
Former CNN reporter Chris Cillizza heads up the opening panel on Saturday.
And then check out the list of their “keynote” speakers throughout the weekend: Asa Hutchinson, Mark Cuban, Chris Christie, George W. Bush Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, Colorado’s Democrat Governor Jared Polis, Michael Steele, John Bolton, and former Georgia Lieutenant Governor Geoff Duncan.
The man receiving the honor of the final “keynote” spot is none other than Adam Kinzinger.
That list reads like a who’s-who of Trump haters – leaving one to wonder what happened to Liz Cheney’s invitation.
But that’s just the keynote speakers.
Joe Walsh, Bill Kristol, Barbara Comstock, Jonah Goldberg, and David French will all participate in the summit.
The event will also feature so-called “journalists” from left-wing outlets like The New York Times, The Bulwark, The Dispatch, Reason Magazine, and The Atlantic.
