Mike Pence's Advancing American Freedom group has unveiled plans for a $20 million initiative aimed at combatting what they describe as "unprincipled populism" within the conservative movement.

In an exclusive statement to RealClearPolitics, Pence emphasized the importance of upholding traditional conservative values, stating, "Our nation was founded on conservative principles that have stood the test of time. The Constitution and this great American experiment must not be swayed by movements or personalities, but must hold fast to the time-honored principles that have made America strong and prosperous and free."

While refraining from direct references, the former vice president expressed concern over a departure from these principles within the conservative sphere, cautioning against the allure of populist rhetoric divorced from core conservative beliefs.
