The Heritage Foundation vs. the GOP Establishment

Scott McKay, The American Spectator

To many people, the Heritage Foundation generates an image of a Republican establishment

organization. But Kevin Roberts is the president of the Heritage Foundation, and he’s fairly new at that job; he took the position in October of 2021. Since his arrival, Heritage is moving in a markedly populist, flyover-country-centric direction that is much more in line with the Republican Party’s gradual transition to a working- and middle-class party and away from the Mitch McConnells and Liz Cheneys of the world.
