The Missouri GOP is Neutered

From: MUSC

 

In a comment to "The Emperor has no Clothes," Christian County Republican Central Committee Chairman Don Carriker, said, "Missouri state statutes are SILENT on the actual definition of "committeewoman," and since we DON'T HAVE a treasure chest the size of the ACLU; if we don't get some help, Trower will likely be seated in the official reorganizational meeting in August 2026."

Teresa Trower openly admits to being a biological male, yet still applied for a vacant committee woman position in Christian County. You can read about it at the link above. Since words apparently lack all meaning beyond whatever an individual insists upon, then perhaps we should take a look at what "Republican" means as well. While they like to rail against Democrats, Republicans have been drifting leftward for years until the two parties are virtually merged except for their respective extremists.

In the video below, commentator Matt Walsh describes the issue perfectly, "We are living through a period of mass psychosis that is very truly unprecedented in human civilization."

If Christian County Republicans have to wait until Missouri officially figures out how to define the word "woman," then perhaps it means the Republican Party in Missouri is a neutered organization that cannot effectively advocate for citizens, especially for women.

Now that we have a biological male running unopposed for a Republican central committee woman spot in Nixa, let's go over what the position is and how one gets there.

Go HERE for a great one-page primer for Missouri on the roles of committee men and women. And go HERE to find the committee people serving you in Missouri. It has not been updated since 2022.

The Christian County Republican Central Committee is a private organization that is regulated by Missouri statutes. According to AI (Grok):

"They are party organizations, not public offices or government entities: Missouri statutes (e.g., RSMo Chapter 115) detail how county/city central committees are formed—typically with one man and one woman elected from each precinct, township, or ward—and outline eligibility, meetings, and organization...

 

...In short, Missouri central committees function as the formal organizational arms of private political parties. They operate under a state-provided framework to ensure fair elections and party structure, but they are not public or governmental organizations."

The candidate filing deadline for Christian County was March 31, 2026. Note what central committee member Ronnie White said:

The county clerk is following the letter of the law and filling out the application according to the information provided. The valid ID says Trower is a female, so the State agrees with itself, and so must you and I agree with the State.

I think not. 

Teresa Trower

 While individuals like Teresa Trower may be charming, indeed declare a deeply-held Christian faith, the larger issue is the ontological and physical reality of our being. If you dig below the surface of transgenderism you will quickly find transhumanism. While the boundaries of this article do not allow diving into what is ultimately behind transgenderism, you can watch a 38-minute video HERE with Jennifer Bilak, a journalist who has been covering this issue for years.

In this case the State insists you must agree that 2+2=5, regardless of objective reality. Even Trower does not insist on that. 

Nevertheless, HERE are the pertinent laws in Missouri regarding changes in gender identity:

"According to Missouri statute, the Department of Health will issue an amended birth certificate "upon receipt of a certified copy of an order of a court of competent jurisdiction indicating the sex of an individual born in this state has been changed by surgical procedure and that such individual's name has been changed” (Mo. Rev. Stat. § 193.215-9)."

Apparently, the State of Missouri is willing to sacrifice objective truth on the altar of transgender ideology. Individuals born with XY chromosomes will always be XY regardless of surgery or clothing or makeup.

To make matters worse for the traditional conservatives in Missouri, bills put forth to address this issue have been killed. Rep. Bob Titus, who is facing an establishment primary opponent, co-sponsored HB2309 (Defining Sex Act). The bill was later refiled by Rep. Jamie Gragg as HB1053. These bills would have begun to address the issue that Christian County is now facing.

The GOP establishment leadership killed those bills. Do you see what is happening? It is not an accident.

The central committee should be aware of who has filed, and should also be actively involved in providing candidates for their own organization on behalf of the Republican voters they purport to represent. According to a source inside the central committee, candidates are credentialed after the official filing date has closed. Don Carriker, the Chairman of the Christian County Republican Central Committee, confirmed that Trower was credentialed in May. It was not until a Missouri influencer spoke out June 8 that this issue became known by those outside the central committee.

2026 candidates for central committee positions

The committee woman position in question, the one that Teresa Trower has filed for is the Union Chapel 1B position. Trower has been active in Greene County politics for years, even stating in a Facebook post dated June 10, 2026, "I've been involved as a conservative in the political world since 1992 when I decided to run for the office of state representative[...]and I began a wonderful friendship that endured until a dread affliction stole his brilliant legal mind. I’ve been mentored by some shrewd and experienced workers, and eventually began to work with numerous campaigns and candidates throughout our county and even statewide office holders and candidates. There wasn’t anything I wasn’t willing to do, from putting up yard signs to acting as treasurer and campaign manager. I eventually honed my skills in opposition research – you know – the ones who dig up dirt and use it to destroy the opposition . . . I wound up carrying a firearm during one hot campaign . . . and I’m bitterly ashamed now at what I was capable of and actually did to those daring to run against my candidate. I have asked God for forgiveness and sworn to never return to those destructive ways."

Aside from the considerable issue of a transsexual (Trower, a 62-year-old biological male prefers that term) filing for a committee woman position, the failure of the local and state GOP to adequately oversee and seek candidates for committee positions indicates the system is no longer serving Republican voters, and seems to give little importance to filling committee positions. The committee's website shows the current members.

I spoke with Carriker, the chairman of the local central committee. While he was concerned about the situation, he indicated that it would not have been simple to place an opponent on the ballot with Trower. In a statement, he said, "The Christian County Republican Party is doing everything they can to ensure that men and women who wish to be on the ballot as Republicans, to represent themselves as Republicans, are completely and legally eligible to do so; according to all Federal and state laws; as well as our party's own governing Bylaws, rules, and policies."

Carriker said he learned of Trower's candidacy two weeks before the filing deadline. He said state GOP officials were non-responsive, as well as several legal organizations who refused to offer legal aid. Additionally, Carriker noted the central committee's limited funds for fighting any potential lawsuits that might occur if Trower is not seated.

The central committee could find not one actual woman in the Union Chapel precinct to run for committee woman? If that is true, the central committee--which is the first and last line of defense for local Republican politics--is impotent.

Friends, many of the people involved in leading state and local Republican politics wear the moniker of conservative or Republican as a skin suit. It is the nature of things that over time an organization will experience entropy. The systems within the organization evolve such that they end in seeking to preserve the system rather than serve the people. In many comments from activist "Republicans" on a Facebook page discussing Trower's candidacy, you will see that the most important aspect is that Trower is a "Republican", is "conservative", is for everything on the Republican platform, etc.

So let's unpack that for a moment. Local Republicans are defending the right of a biological male to assume a committee woman position. Is that your version of Republican? If that is what the GOP now asserts, then Republican is no longer a viable political designation. Indeed, the GOP in Missouri is now openly denying their published beliefs: "We believe in equal rights, equal justice, and equal opportunity for all, regardless of race, creed, sex, age, or disability." 

This is the applicable state statute for committee men and women:

"115.607. [...]Except as provided in subsections 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 of this section, the membership of a county or city committee of each established political party shall consist of a man and a woman elected from each precinct, township, or ward in the county or city not within a county."

If equal rights are part of the central committee's credo, then a biological male would not be seated in a committee woman spot, regardless of its vacancy. Let's be clear, a biological male is unable to adequately fulfill a position that was designated solely for a woman.

Living as a female for six years does not grant a biological male the right to appropriate women's sexed reality. Only biological females can intrinsically know what it is to be a woman. This is an attack on women and their rights. This is an attack on the considerable grassroots in Christian County. This is an attack on the truly conservative members of our legislature in Christian County.

Trower's legal passport has a male designation, as admitted here:

This is quite the conundrum, eh? The federal legal passport says one thing. The amended state birth certificate and the driver's license say another thing. The candidate admits to being a biological or natal male, yet is running for a committee woman position. Trower's Facebook posts are often witty, inoffensive and supportive of the reality of the fundamental differences between males and females, including those individuals who have 'transitioned'. 

However, the very thing that exposes Trower's candidacy as an establishment political move is the intrusion into spaces designated for women. This is true in bathrooms, sports, schools and politics. Central committee positions are designated for one man and one woman. Not two males.

I believe it's part of the plan to defeat traditional conservatives. Every central committee Republican who excuses the situation, who wrings their hands in impotency, who supports establishment candidates, is a fake Republican. And there are a lot of them. And they speak loudly of their credentials. Trower may have endorsed Titus' establishment opponent, Sandy Karnes. (If not, Teresa could easily clear that up.)

The Missouri GOP is a strutting emperor, replete with fawning courtiers who care more for position than truth and who are willing to deny or ignore women's fundamental right to occupy (or not) a position that has been specifically designated for them alone. That is not a Republican virtue. It is a Party vice.

The emperor has no clothes. ://x.
