Dear Friend,

To say these past two weeks have been a rollercoaster is an understatement. First, the attempted assassination of President Trump left us horrified, angry, but determined. But then, when the news broke that Senator J.D. Vance had been selected as his running mate, we were jubilant.

This is a gratifying moment for the Claremont Institute. Indeed, as Senator Vance said recently, “the Claremont [ Institute’s] Center for the American Way of Life is doing incredible work to restore the American system. Their analysis and acumen have been invaluable for my work in the United States Senate.” 

But—and I say this with modesty—we already knew he considers Claremont invaluable.

- We knew it because he hired Jacob Reses (Publius, 2016) as his Chief of Staff. And James Braid (Lincoln, 2019) as his Deputy Chief of Staff. And William Martin (Lincoln, 2024) as his Press Secretary

- We knew it because he speaks at our events ([link removed] ) , sometimes as the keynote speaker ([link removed] )

- We knew it because he reads and writes for our publications ([link removed] )

- And we knew it long before Politico, who just this week published an article ([link removed] ) describing the Claremont Institute as one of the seven thinkers or groups that have “shaped” Vance’s “worldview.”

The influence of the Claremont Institute is greater today than at any point in our history. We always strive to use this influence to benefit our country and fellow citizens, by pressing the fight to recover the American idea and defend the American way of life—with your help.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Ryan P. Williams
President
Claremont Institute
