Well, it’s about time.
It has been reported that the new leadership at the RNC is cutting staff members in an effort to put themselves in the best position to win the election in November.

When Ronna McDaniel officially resigned, Trump supporters were quick to voice their praise.
Good riddance.

People are even more excited by this recent RINO purge at the RNC.
This is terrible! The RNC has been so effective for the Democrat-Communist Party the last 3 elections!

CNN has more on the recent RNC shake-up:
The Republican National Committee began laying off dozens of staffers on Monday, days after Donald Trump’s handpicked team took the reins of the organization, according to two Republican operatives with knowledge of the dismissals.
The layoffs affect staffers across multiple departments including data, communications and the political operation, the sources said. The cuts also go beyond senior staff to vendors and mid-level employees, one of the Republican operatives said. Vendor contracts will likely be cut as well.
The Guardian also reported on the RNC house-cleaning:
In ousting large swathes of the RNC, the new RNC chair Michael Whatley and the new RNC co-chair Lara Trump – the former president’s daughter-in-law – moved to reorganize the Republican party’s central committee to fall squarely behind the Trump 2024 campaign just days after they were formally elected.
The move amounts to an attempt to purge the ranks of the RNC so that staffers who may not be loyal supporters of Trump and the Maga movement would be let go as Trump tightens his hold on the party as the Republican nominee ahead of the presidential election in November.
“Chairman Whatley is in the process of evaluating the organization and staff to ensure the building is aligned with his vision of how to win in November,” the new RNC chief operating officer Sean Cairncross wrote in emails to the political, data and communications teams that were seen by the Guardian.
