Where the Live Convention Coverage Airs

Pfaff opened at the TCC position with the convention stage behind him, naming himself and the organization.

“Welcome to Dallas. This is Jim Pfaff, president of the Conservative Caucus.”
— Jim Pfaff, President, The Conservative Caucus

The first instruction is the website: go to theconservativecaucus.com to check when TCC is going live, because the site carries a banner showing when the Caucus is live and broadcasting. The second is social — the Caucus is broadcasting on all of its platforms, so the live convention coverage can be followed on a viewer’s own feed. Pfaff gave the start time as 4 PM Central, 5 PM Eastern, with speeches beginning on the stage behind him that night, and then named the one item nobody should miss.

“Donald Trump at 8 PM Central, 9 PM Eastern, is going to be speaking straight from the stage. So you definitely want to see that. You don’t want to miss it.”
— Jim Pfaff, President, The Conservative Caucus

Staff Across the Stadium and Interviews at the Booth

The coverage is not a camera pointed at the stage. The Caucus has people working the building, and their interviews are part of what viewers get, alongside TCC’s preview of the RNC Midterm Convention in Dallas.

“We’ve got my staff all over the stadium, so we’ll be bringing you interviews of key people from around the stadium that my staff will be conducting.”
— Jim Pfaff, President, The Conservative Caucus

The Caucus will also have people right there at his position whom he will talk to himself. That is the structure for two days: stage speeches, interviews gathered by staff across the arena, and conversations at the TCC position.

53 Days to November 2nd and What Is on the Line

Pfaff called this a really big event with everything on the line, and then put a number on the window.

“If we can have from this conference the kind of momentum necessary in the next 53, 54 days leading up to November 2nd, Republicans could keep the House at best and definitely the Senate at a minimum.”
— Jim Pfaff, President, The Conservative Caucus

Pfaff said he does not want to lose either one. He also did not soften his standing criticism of his own side: many people who follow him know he is not very pleased with Republican leadership in Washington, D.C., and he thinks there are reasons to be concerned about what they are doing. President Trump, he thinks, is very concerned about that as well.

“If Democrats get control of the House, if you thought that Donald Trump was hampered because of the whole Russia hoax, watch out, it’s coming even worse.”
— Jim Pfaff, President, The Conservative Caucus

Pfaff called it a really critical election, and said the Caucus is going to be covering that from inside the building and is going to be involved.

Millions in Independent Expenditure and the Races TCC Is Targeting

TCC got involved with millions of dollars of independent expenditure efforts in 2024 and is on track to do the very same thing this year, the effort behind the independent expenditure push for the 2026 midterms. The Caucus is in the building to track what is being said, get with key leaders, find out what they are thinking and going to do, and challenge them to do the right thing.

“We’re going to do the best we can to make every effort to get Republicans elected up and down the line in the 26 House races and 11 Senate races we’re targeting.”
— Jim Pfaff, President, The Conservative Caucus

Pfaff thanked viewers for following the Caucus, listening to its content and helping with contributions, and put the relationship plainly: you guys make the difference, and we are here to serve you so that your will can be done in November.

Sending Questions Into the Live Convention Coverage

The last instruction makes the broadcast two-way: Pfaff asked viewers to join the Caucus, follow what is going on for the next two days, and write in.

“Send us messages. Go to theconservativecaucus.com, fill out the information form and let us know questions that you might have as well.”
— Jim Pfaff, President, The Conservative Caucus

In his words, TCC will try to answer those questions on air and track them for viewers. He closed as he opened — “again, this is Jim Pfaff, president of the Conservative Caucus” — and said the live convention coverage would be back soon.

Key Takeaways

1. The broadcast starts at 4 PM Central, 5 PM Eastern – A banner on theconservativecaucus.com shows when the stream is running, and the live convention coverage is simulcast on every TCC social platform.
2. Trump speaks at 8 PM Central, 9 PM Eastern – Pfaff said the President is speaking straight from the stage and that viewers do not want to miss it, with stage speeches starting earlier that evening.
3. Staff are spread across the stadium – Caucus staff are conducting interviews with key people from around the arena, and Pfaff is conducting his own at the TCC position.
4. 53 to 54 days to November 2nd – With the right momentum out of the conference, Pfaff said, Republicans could keep the House at best and the Senate at a minimum; if Democrats take the House, he warned, what Trump faced during the Russia hoax is “coming even worse.”
5. 26 House races and 11 Senate races – That is TCC’s target list; the Caucus ran millions of dollars in independent expenditure efforts in 2024 and is on track to do the same this year.
6. Viewers can send questions – The information form at theconservativecaucus.com is the channel; Pfaff said the team will try to answer questions on air and track them.
