Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, will give one of the first addresses of CPAC 2021.
Among the major speakers who will hit on the topic Friday is Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah. His speech is titled Why the Left Hates the Bill of Rights . and We Love It.
Lee will be one of the first speakers of CPAC, immediately following a welcome speech from Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
Lee s talk will be followed by a panel on the First Amendment during which a different speaker will break down each of the fundamental freedoms provided in the amendment. Among them, former Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who is the current Young America s Foundation president, will address freedom of speech; Sen. James Lankford, R-Okla., will talk about freedom of religion; and coronavirus lockdown skeptic Alex Berenson will talk about freedom of the press.
CPAC Pandering Leads to the Usual Disaster
Gregory Hood, American Renaissance, February 25, 2021
It’s the oldest joke about the American conservative movement: “What do you call the one black guy at CPAC? The keynote speaker.” Every year, the Conservative Political Action Conference (sponsored by the American Conservative Union) tries to show it is not racist by propping up token non-whites to speak about “leaving the Democrat plantation” to vote Republican. Every year, CPAC bans race realists even from the audience, presumably so reporters won’t call the conference “racist.” Every year, liberal reporters go to CPAC, take pictures of eccentric people, and write insulting articles anyway. CPAC never learns.
