This week the Conservative Political Action Conference, commonly known as CPAC will take place February 24-28, 2022. It will be held at the Rosen Shingle Creek Hotel in Orlando, Florida. This conference is considered the largest gathering of conservatives in the world.
The event is sponsored by the American Conservative Union headed by Matt Schlapp. The theme this year is “We will not be cancelled —-and you don’t want to miss it.” Many feel there will be a big focus on the midterm elections in 2022.
There will be hundreds of speakers with thousands of conservatives attending. The highlight will will be an appearance by President Donald J. Trump Friday night at 7:00pm EST.
I’ve attended the last several years of the conference as it used to be held in Washington D.C. Last year it was moved to Florida which many considered a better run state under the leadership of Governor Ron DiSantis who also will be speaking this week.
Others speakers include Candace Owens, James O’Keefe, Lee Greenwood, Rick Scott, Ted Cruz, Glenn Beck, Lou Holtz, Mark Levin, Gov. Kristi Noem, and Ben Carson, to name a few. The official CPAC Twitter page, in a humorous post, indicated that Justin Trudeau has NOT been invited.
