What will CPAC 2021 reveal about the Republican Party's direction? Just take a look at the speaker list and see for yourself.

Conservative activists will gather at the Conservative Political Action Committee (CPAC) annual convention on February 25–28.  This year's event will be held in Orlando, Florida.  This is the first time in 50 years that CPAC's annual meeting was not in the Washington, D.C. area.  This is because of strict coronavirus guidelines in Maryland and D.C.

Here is a list of CPAC speakers to date.  At this point, neither Donald Trump nor Mike Pence is scheduled to speak, but it is hard to think they won't be there.  One shouldn't count Eric Trump out, either.

This year's meeting will be an important indication of which way the Republican Party is headed.  Will it be a MAGA party or one in the Bush/McCain/Romney mold?  The fact that none of the big-name Trump antagonists like Mitt Romney, Ben Sasse, Mitch McConnell, and Liz Cheney will be there to make their case is telling.

The liberal media will try to bury what comes out of CPAC.  When they're not doing that, they'll be twisting things to look as unfavorable as possible.  Any hiccup will be magnified, and conservative activists will be painted as near domestic terrorists for questioning the 2020 election steal.  Silicon Valley is doing its part also to tamp down enthusiasm at CPAC. The Washington Examiner reports that CPAC "is likely to offer its own streaming app now that YouTube has moved to bar videos questioning the 2020 election."  This is censorship by the geeks, which has become the new norm.

So how many of those politicians did or said anything at all about the fraudulent 2020 election? One? Two? Yep that’s the direction alright.

The MISSING PERSON IN THIS LIST IS THE LOUDEST “TELL”. Guess who they should have invited to speak but have not yet...

Looks like CPAC will be worth attending.

The GOP desperately wants to return to its designated losers condition, and one proof of this is that it is attempting to marginalize CPAC, to not even admit to the existence of true conservatives and patriots in or out of the party.

Really? How many Senators on this list did not have the courage to object to the results of the November 2020 election?

The list looks like solid purge material for Twitter, which is a good sign. :D

When Cruz represents the Establishment Moderate wing of the event, that's not too bad. All that's missing (besides Trump) is DeSantis.

I’m surprised.

I thought for sure it would be a RINO-fest.

Looking at that list, the direction does NOT seem to be favorable for Liz Cheney and company.

The whole neocon thing is over for the republicans at this point , the question is if the GOP knows it. They can try and go back to Bush years but they won’t win anything.
