American Conservative Union and CPAC chairman Matt Schlapp reportedly hired a Catholic priest to perform an exorcism at CPAC’s offices following the resignation of multiple staffers who were unhappy about their pay.

According to Daily Beast senior political reporter Roger Sollenberger, who spoke to “multiple people with knowledge of the exorcisms,” the priest “sprinkled holy water around the CPAC premises and blessed all the staff, regardless of their faith” during the exorcism last year.

The priest also “placed a medallion above doors in the offices” to “ward off evil spirits,” according to the Daily Beast, which reported that the medallions are still present in CPAC’s offices a year later.

Schlapp reportedly organized the exorcism — which was described by one unnamed person as “the weirdest thing I’d seen” — after a group of staffers resigned over a pay dispute.

Works for me.

Might be a good idea to do that to a federal agency. After the firings of course.

Maybe Schlapp should send a couple Divisions of Priests over to the DNC? I think he’d find the Mother Lode over there.

I’ll admit it. I’ve watched those ‘idol drop’ video compilations. People have been injured by those things falling,... the fools.

Was it a legitimate exorcist?

...rumor has it Melania insisted on something similar before moving into the White Hut.

“I know lay people who have been involved in exorcisms.”

Right. My point was — not just priests.

I don’t know if CPAC needs an exorcism any more than many, many other institutions in the USA!
