The unauthorized occupiers of the Republican National Committee recently acted to kill the party by creating, instead, a Washington D.C. based not-for-profit corporation with the assumed name “Republican National Committee”.
Since the birth of the Republican Party in 1856, it has existed as an unincorporated association of individuals as described here by RNC General Counsel Roger Allen Moore:
The Republican National Committee (RNC) is an unincorporated association of individuals created and governed by The Rules of the Republican Party. The quadrennial Republican National Convention is the highest authority in the Republican Party and the existence of each successive RNC is dependent completely upon, its authority derived solely from, and its functions are constrained entirely by, the Rules adopted by the preceding Republican National Convention that created it. Unlike the national Democratic Party, the National Republican Party has no permanent charter or bylaws. The RNC is not established by or under any federal or state statutes.
(Roger Allen Moore, RNC General Counsel, 1981-1989)
Due to the failure of the staff of the Republican National Committee to fulfill their obligation to arrange for and convene the required quadrennial Republican National Convention in 2020, a lapse of the authority of the RNC to exist has occurred.
This has left the Republican Party without a legitimate Republican National Committee drifting, rudderless, without Republican National Convention rules to authorize and guide it’s activities.
It takes a majority vote of the delegates to the quadrennial Republican National Convention to create the Rules of the Republican Party which recreate the Republican National Committee.
This did not happen in 2020. There was no legitimate Republican National Convention in 2020.
Nonetheless, at a gathering on April 13, some members of the former Republican National Committee, while meeting in Memphis for what is called “a training session only”, (RULE NO. 8(a) were reported by anonymous sources to have approved the creation of a nonprofit corporation.
A check of filings in the District of Columbia reveal that Ronna McDaniel incorporated an organization, “Republican National Committee “, as a non-profit corporation File Number N00007337407 on April 8, 2022.
Numerous attempts to contact McDaniel, the General Counsel of the RNC, the press and communication office of the RNC, and Rules Committee officials of the RNC for comment have been unsuccessful.
On it’s face, however, it appears the the Republican Party has been converted from a private association to a nonprofit corporation; thus effectively killing the Republican Party of the past.
HOW CAN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY BE BORN AGAIN?
A national convention of grassroots Republican delegates is the only legitimate process to bring the party back to life, since a Republican National Convention is the only legitimate source of authority in the Republican Party.
A grassroots committee, the Republican Party 2022 Convention Committee, has been organized for the purpose of reorganizing the Republican Party.
This committee will recruit Republicans from all states and territories to join the committee and participate in the planning and preparation for a mid-term Republican National Convention at a date, time, and place yet to be determined.
Any person eligible to vote in the United States is welcome and encouraged to join the Republican Party 2022 Convention Committee.
The membership fee of $50 will entitle each member to participate in all activities of the committee.
Prior to the 2022 convention, members of the convention committee in each state will elect 10 members to represent their state in the National Convention.
Upon their election, these 10 delegates will elect, from their group, 2 members for each of the convention committees.
There will be a Committee on Arrangements, Committee on Credentials, Committee on Rules of Order, Program Committee and Resolutions Committee.
The Republican Party 2022 Convention Committee newsletter will be published on Substack to provide information to all members and prospective delegates about the 2022 Convention as plans progress.
Every person who joins the Republican Party 2022 Convention Committee will get a free subscription to the Substack newsletter.
The Republican Party 2022 Convention will be organized in strict conformity with Robert’s Rules of Order provisions for Conventions Not of a Permanent Society; the same rules generally followed in the conduct of previous quadrennial Republican National Conventions.
Membership recruitment is pending and will be available soon on the committee’s website.
Republican volunteers wishing to assist in the recruitment of members in each state and in helping to organize the convention are invited to reply to this post for further information.

Good information, much easier to understand if you start at the beginning of Curly's substack.
