interview with Kiersten Pel, RNCC secretary about midterms
In the opening segment of the second hour of The Charlie James Show on Tuesday, April 28, 2026, Charlie James interviewed Kiersten Pels, the newly appointed Secretary of the Republican National Committee (RNC), to discuss the GOP's strategic roadmap for the 2026 midterm elections. Pels, who recently transitioned from her role as communications director for Senator Ron Johnson to join Joe Gruters' leadership team at the RNC, outlined a "Back to Basics" campaign focused on tax cuts, border security, and countering "lawfare" tactics. During the interview, she emphasized the importance of expanding the Republican House and Senate majorities to support the Trump administration's agenda, specifically noting that the upcoming June 9th primary in South Carolina would serve as a critical bellwether for voter enthusiasm in the Upstate.
