Colorado Springs, Colo. (CNN)Frustrated with Republican lawmakers and recent policy developments out of Washington, the juggernaut Koch network appears poised to rethink or scale back its involvement in GOP politics in what would be a surprising shift as the midterm elections near.
In a rare question-and-answer session with reporters Sunday, the network's billionaire founder Charles Koch expressed "regret" over his network's past support for some candidates, who he believes have not done enough in office to defend its libertarian principles and policy priorities.
"So, we're going to be much stricter," Koch said, adding that the network would "hold people responsible for their commitments."

In part, guiding the network's pivot is its angst over the direction of Republicans in Congress, who earlier this year approved a $1.3 trillion spending agreement that increased federal government funding for defense spending and domestic programs. Brian Hooks, the network's co-chair, panned that legislation Sunday as the "most irresponsible budget in history," expressing disappointment that "we supported the elections of these guys" in the Republican Party who backed it.
