Wade—and declared that Democrats have become “monsters.”<p style="box-sizing: border-box; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: background-color, border-color, box-shadow, color, opacity, text-shadow, transform; transition-timing-function: linear; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em; line-height: 1.5;">Trump thrilled the crowd with promises about what he would do as the 47th president, saying, “When I get back in the Oval Office, I will totally obliterate the Deep State.” And he vowed to push “school choice” plans—which divert public education dollars into private and religious schools and homeschooling—and, oddly, called for public school principals to be chosen by direct election by parents.<p style="box-sizing: border-box; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: background-color, border-color, box-shadow, color, opacity, text-shadow, transform; transition-timing-function: linear; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em; line-height: 1.5;">Trump’s speech and others at the conference signaled the issues and strategies around which the MAGA movement is mobilizing to try to take power in the 2024 elections: waging war on “wokeness,” demeaning transgender people and calling for institutionalized discrimination against them, mocking corporate support for diversity, equity, and environmental protection, and, in the name of parents’ rights, purging schools and libraries of materials that do not align with MAGA activists’ political and religious worldviews.<p style="box-sizing: border-box; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: background-color, border-color, box-shadow, color, opacity, text-shadow, transform; transition-timing-function: linear; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em; line-height: 1.5;">Trump’s speech was preceded by awards given to right-wing movement fundraising godfather Richard Viguerie and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee. Viguerie declared that the nation is in “a spiritual civil war” that “the left has launched against Western civilization, America, our Constitution, Judeo-Christian moral values, and much else we value at home.” Viguerie encouraged activists to get more involved in any way they can, signing off with, “Good night, ladies and gentlemen. See you on the battlefield of the spiritual civil war, and don’t be late!”...</div></div></div>=<a href="http://www.rightwingwatch.org/post/ginni-thomas-teams-up-with-james-okeefe-in-dark-money-operation-to-protect-trump/">http://www.rightwingwatch.org/post/ginni-thomas-teams-up-with-james-okeefe-in-dark-money-operation-to-protect-trump/</a><div class="mce-content-body" style="box-sizing: border-box; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: background-color, border-color, box-shadow, color, opacity, text-shadow, transform, -webkit-transform; transition-timing-function: linear;"><div class="layout-constrain--narrow" style="box-sizing: border-box; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: background-color, border-color, box-shadow, color, opacity, text-shadow, transform, -webkit-transform; transition-timing-function: linear; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 47.2222em; padding-left: 1em; padding-right: 1em; line-height: 1.5;"><p style="box-sizing: border-box; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: background-color, border-color, box-shadow, color, opacity, text-shadow, transform, -webkit-transform; transition-timing-function: linear; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em; line-height: 1.5;">Ginni Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and a right-wing political activist, has launched a new set of organizations meant to “protect President Trump” and attack Democrats and left-leaning organizations, according to <a href="https://theintercept.com/2019/06/04/ginni-thomas-trump-conservative-group/" style="box-sizing: border-box; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: background-color, border-color, box-shadow, color, opacity, text-shadow, transform, -webkit-transform; transition-timing-function: linear; outline-offset: 0.111111em; text-decoration-line: none;">an article published by The Intercept</a> this week.<p style="box-sizing: border-box; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: background-color, border-color, box-shadow, color, opacity, text-shadow, transform, -webkit-transform; transition-timing-function: linear; margin: 0px 0px 1.5em; line-height: 1.5;">The well-connected Thomas, a former Heritage Foundation staffer, presented her plans to build a “robust infrastructure” to a meeting of the secretive <a href="http://www.rightwingwatch.org/organizations/council-for-national-policy/" style="box-sizing: border-box; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: background-color, border-color, box-shadow, color, opacity, text-shadow, transform, -webkit-transform; transition-timing-function: linear; outline-offset: 0.111111em; text-decoration-line: none;">Council for National Policy</a> last month.

Mount Vernon Statement is a declaration of principles for the modern <a href="http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Conservative" title="Conservative">conservative</a>

movement. It was posted to the Internet on February 17, 2010. The

Statement is notable mostly for the collection of high profile

right-wing figures who signed it.

The Statement is mostly conservative boilerplate about "founding principles" and "limited government" and similar <a href="http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Tea_Party" title="Tea Party" class="mw-redirect">Tea Party</a> rhetoric. No specific planks are addressed, and while the site boasts links to the text of the <a href="http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Constitution" title="Constitution">Constitution</a> and the <a href="http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Declaration_of_Independence" title="Declaration of Independence">Declaration of Independence</a>,

neither is directly addressed. The closest the Statement comes to

specificity is a series of five points defining "Constitutional

conservatism":

<ul><li>It applies the principle of limited government based on the rule of law to every proposal.

</li><li>It honors the central place of individual liberty in American politics and life.

</li><li>It encourages free enterprise, the individual entrepreneur, and economic reforms grounded in market solutions.

</li><li>It supports America’s national interest in advancing freedom

and opposing tyranny in the world and prudently considers what we can

and should do to that end.

</li><li>It informs conservatism’s firm defense of family, neighborhood, community, and faith.</li></ul></blockquote>

The actual content of the Statement is secondary to the list of signatories, including <a href="http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Ronald_Reagan" title="Ronald Reagan">Reagan</a>-era

statement centered around limited government, there are a surprisingly

Interestingly, Viguerie initially pushed back against the Statement,

saying "If the people in the leadership of the conservative movement are

going to put out pablum like this, the tea party people are going to

make them seem irrelevant. And the tea party people are going to march

to the forefront."<a href="http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Mount_Vernon_Statement#cite_note-2">[3]</a>

Nevertheless, he signed it just a few weeks later, calling it an

"attempt to draft a document that conservatives...can get behind and

begin the process of reclaiming the Republican Party for

small-government conservatives."<a href="http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Mount_Vernon_Statement#cite_note-3">[4]</a>

stone:

This same question can also be asked of his wife – not Nydia Stone, but his first wife, Ann, who is very much a kindred spirit. She is almost entirely invisible in the profiles by Labash and Toobin – going entirely unmentioned in the first, and only given brief mention exclusively as a wife – “Stone and his wife at the time, Ann, became famous for their lavish life style, which included a chauffeur-driven Mercedes and tailor-made clothes,” “In the nineties, Stone divorced Ann and married Nydia Bertran,” – rather than as a formidable political force in her own right. I do not think he was the best or most loyal of husbands, but he gives her a complimentary mention in his memoir, and I don’t think this is a case of gallantry or politeness, but simply giving his ex-wife her just due. There are two people, Stone writes, who taught him everything about direct mail, and getting a message out to conservative donors and activists. One of them is Jim Martin, the man who managed to put out the message that the inheritance tax should be called a death tax. The other is his ex-wife Ann E.W. Stone. She, along with Martin, “are both two of the most brilliant marketers I know”<a id="bkfrftnote187" name="bkfrftnote187" style=" text-decoration: underline;"> </a><a href="http://italkyoubored.wordpress.com/2014/02/15/roger-stone-pretty-reckless-is-going-straight-to-hell-part-eight/#ftnote187" sl-processed="1" style=" text-decoration: underline;">187</a>.

Direct mail was the secret fuel of the conservative movement, and its master was Richard Viguerie. Through pleas to fight communism in the United States or abroad, for the cause of persecuted christians or persecuted capitalists, direct mail harnessed a massive amount of money from small donors to fund conservative political causes and groups, including NCPAC – an ordinary PAC as opposed to a Super PAC which relies on the funding of a small number of single wealthy donors, or sometimes a single wealthy donor, such as the Koch brothers or Sheldon Adelson. Both Ann Stone and Richard Martin, the names singled out by Roger Stone, were two of Viguerie’s best students.<a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2003/sep/19/20030919-075642-9561r/print/" sl-processed="1" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration: underline;">“Funding Father”</a>, is a 2003 Washington Times ode by Martin to Viguerie. “Shy about personally visiting contributors,” Martin writes, “Mr. Viguerie realized he could contact 1,000 or 10,000 potential donors by mail without spending any more time, effort or money than it would take to personally solicit a single contribution from one potential donor.” He is perhaps not overstating things in the next paragraph. “Legions of candidates, from the courthouse to the White House, have benefited from Mr. Viguerie’s expertise, and legions of others have tasted defeat as a direct result of his ability to raise money and promote action simply by sitting down at his typewriter.”

Easily the best discussion of the phenomenon is <a href="http://www.thebaffler.com/past/the_long_con/print" sl-processed="1" style=" text-decoration: underline;">“The Long Con”</a> by Rick Perlstein, and the title is not idle malice. Perlstein gives substantial evidence that questions how much of the money raised went to their intended causes and how much ended up in the pockets of the mail wranglers. There’s also the ways in which these political appeals resemble snake oil sales of elixirs and sure fire investments, whose appeals the dedicated conservative got as well, with the mailing lists sold off to commerical bidders of cheap, cruddy stuff and grifts. All this reaches the obvious and expected nadir with direct mail’s electronic ancestor in <a href="http://www.newrepublic.com/article/116237/newt-gingrich-herman-cain-are-now-making-money-spam" sl-processed="1" style=" text-decoration: underline;">“Newt Gingrich & Herman Cain Are Now Making Money Off Spam”</a> by Ben Adler, where subscribers to the mailing lists of both men receive news on how Obamacare is destroying lives, the betrayal of the dead of Benghazi, but also the ways their erectile dysfunction problems can now be solved, and how you can get rich quick now. This same theme, false politics overlapping with the deceptions of the con, is there in the career of Ann Stone, woefully unreported, except for brief outbursts of scandalous exposure.

<h2>Background</h2>

In an autobiographical note, Viguerie wrote that in 1961 he became executive secretary of the conservative youth group, <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Young_Americans_for_Freedom" title="Young Americans for Freedom">Young Americans for Freedom</a>. "Since 1965, owner of direct marketing/advertising companies such as <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=American_Target_Advertising" title="American Target Advertising">American Target Advertising</a>. Political/campaign strategist, activist and conservative spokesman and writer," he wrote.

"Pioneered political use of computerized direct mail. That technology was the Internet of its day: it enabled conservatives to get around liberals' dominance of the mass media; it allowed thousands of conservative candidates, organizations and causes to get their messages to grassroots Americans," he wrote.<a href="http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m2519/is_4_21/ai_62410225" class="external autonumber" title="http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m2519/is_4_21/ai_62410225" rel="nofollow">[1]</a>

Viguerie founded Conservative Digest magazine in 1975 and served as its publisher for ten years.<a href="http://dmany.convio.net/site/PageServer?pagename=Speakerbiony2004&#richardviguerie" class="external autonumber" title="http://dmany.convio.net/site/PageServer?pagename=Speakerbiony2004&#richardviguerie" rel="nofollow" style="">[2]</a>

Asked by Campaigns and Elections in May 2000 what his immediate goals were Viguerie wrote "To use the Internet to involve Americans in the political process, to help conservatives gain an advantage over the left. To fight against government's use of power, to fight for individual rights and responsibilities, and to fight to extend the blessings of liberty throughout the world."<a href="http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m2519/is_4_21/ai_62410225" class="external autonumber" title="http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m2519/is_4_21/ai_62410225" rel="nofollow">[3]</a>

Writing in The Nation, David Corn noted that Viguerie "raised money for <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Judicial_Watch" title="Judicial Watch">Judicial Watch</a>" and is associated with <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Larry_Klayman" title="Larry Klayman">Larry Klayman</a>, conservative lawyer and activist.

Richard Viguerie has been dubbed the "funding father" of modern conservative strategy, having pioneered important tactics in computerized direct mail strategy in the 1970s and 1980s. He is considered the direct mail titan of the right.

Viguerie worked for the disgraced evangelist <a title="Billy James Hargis" href="http://www.dkosopedia.com/wiki/Billy_James_Hargis">Billy James Hargis</a> early in his career. In an autobiographical note, Viguerie wrote that in 1961 he became executive secretary of the conservative youth group, <a title="Young Americans for Freedom" href="http://www.dkosopedia.com/w/index.php?title=Young_Americans_for_Freedom&action=edit" class="new">Young Americans for Freedom</a>. "Since 1965, owner of direct marketing/advertising companies such as American Target Advertising. Political/campaign strategist, activist and conservative spokesman and writer," he wrote. <a rel="nofollow" title="http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m2519/is_4_21/ai_62410225" href="http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m2519/is_4_21/ai_62410225" class="external autonumber">[1]</a> "Pioneered political use of computerized direct mail. That technology was the Internet of its day: it enabled conservatives to get around liberals' dominance of the mass media; it allowed thousands of conservative candidates, organizations and causes to get their messages to grassroots Americans," he wrote.

Viguerie founded <a title="Conservative Digest" href="http://www.dkosopedia.com/w/index.php?title=Conservative_Digest&action=edit" class="new">Conservative Digest</a> magazine in 1975 and served as its publisher for ten years. In the 1980s he was saved from debt by a generous grant from <a title="Sun Myung Moon" href="http://www.dkosopedia.com/w/index.php?title=Sun_Myung_Moon&action=edit" class="new">Sun Myung Moon</a>, who had also raised money for Viguerie in the name of Korean orphans -- who received only 6% of the money, the lion's share of which went to the conservative strategist. Viguerie sought the Republican nomination for lieutenant governor of Virginia in 1985, but did not receive the nomination at the GOP state convention.

Asked by <a title="Campaigns and Elections" href="http://www.dkosopedia.com/w/index.php?title=Campaigns_and_Elections&action=edit" class="new">Campaigns and Elections</a> in May 2000 what his immediate goals were Viguerie answered "To use the Internet to involve Americans in the political process, to help conservatives gain an advantage over the left. To fight against government's use of power, to fight for individual rights and responsibilities, and to fight to extend the blessings of liberty throughout the world." <a rel="nofollow" title="http://dmany.convio.net/site/PageServer?pagename=Speakerbiony2004&#richardviguerie" href="http://dmany.convio.net/site/PageServer?pagename=Speakerbiony2004&#richardviguerie" class="external autonumber">[2]</a>

Writing in <a title="The Nation" href="http://www.dkosopedia.com/wiki/The_Nation">The Nation</a>, David Corn noted that Viguerie "raised money for <a title="Judicial Watch" href="http://www.dkosopedia.com/wiki/Judicial_Watch">Judicial Watch</a>" and is associated with <a title="Larry Klayman" href="http://www.dkosopedia.com/w/index.php?title=Larry_Klayman&action=edit" class="new">Larry Klayman</a>, conservative lawyer and activist and Republican candidate for the US Senate from Florida in 2004.

Viguerie has long been associated with conservative activist <a title="Howard Phillips" href="http://www.dkosopedia.com/wiki/Howard_Phillips">Howard Phillips</a>.

Viguerie's stance should be no surprise to those who have been following him recently as he promotes his <a target="blank" href="http://blog.buzzflash.com/analysis/770">re-launch of the Republican Party by purging what he calls "big-government Republicans"</a> from the helm of his Web site, <a target="blank" href="http://conservativehq.com/about-us/">ConservativeHQ.com</a>. The one-time heavy hitter of the GOP emerged from the 1970s to become that era's Karl Rove, credited for creating the once-influential direct-mail campaigns for the political world.
