I'm told MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell is currently secretly participating in a CPAC roundtable behind the scenes with former President Donald Trump.

Why would it need to be a secret, though?

Who knows what goes on in their feeble brains?

Fox is carrying him live.

[Suranis]

So basically they will be sitting around a table listening to Turnip talk, ad the only thing they will be expected to contribute is lots of praise.

If Lindell is in a manic phase he wont be able to sit still, so there is a non zero possibility of fireworks.

[Kendra]

This is a real disclaimer that ran on Fox during Trump's CPAC Dallas speech: "THE VOTING SYSTEM COMPANIES HAVE DENIED THE VARIOUS ALLEGATIONS MADE BY PRESIDENT TRUMP..."

[neonzx]

I watched at most ~5 minutes of DFO's address to CPAC. It's all the same regurgitation of his grievance laundry list. There was nothing new.

[Kendra]

It was some weird . Like said above, nothing much new, but he is drilling down on the no prosecutions of Antifa and BLM during last year's protests, yet look at the poor patriots getting tossed in jail for 1/6. Dangerous rhetoric IMHO.

Matt Gaetz allies promoted "official" CPAC speech. Conference officials tell a different story
CPAC confiscated several signs and promotional materials for what it says was a rogue event
By ZACHARY PETRIZZO PUBLISHED JULY 11, 2021 5:33PM (EDT)

DALLAS — Volunteers for a right-wing organization at the Conservative Political Action Conference spent Sunday morning promoting an "official" event featuring a speech Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., posting signs sponsored by a group called "Look ahead America" — though a CPAC official told Salon the event was never sanctioned at all. The conference sought to distance itself from the embattled Congressman by confiscating several signs and handouts for the speech, which read "join Look Ahead America's official CPAC event featuring Representative Matt Gaetz and Colonel Allen West."

The whole debacle kicked off just before noon on Sunday, when security personnel approached a "Look Ahead America" volunteer holding a sign which read, "Matt Gaetz & Allen West Event," with a large arrow pointing attendees outside of CPAC's security checkpoint and into a second-floor ballroom at the hotel. Moments later, "Look Ahead America" organizers attempted to leave the booth area at the conference only to have another one of their signs promoting the event seized. A Look Ahead America official brushed off the signs being taken, telling Salon they hadn't had previous contact with any CPAC officials. In a subsequent tweet, Matt Braynard, the executive director of "Look Ahead America" called CPAC's statement a "100% lie": "It is an official #CPACTX event. @LookAheadOrg is a CPAC sponsor and the room/event was part of our sponsor package. SecretService said we couldn't have signs near the main ball room due 2 security. @mattgaetz and @AllenWest gave great speeches!"

The unsanctioned event was headlined by Gaetz, who is under investigation by the FBI over allegations he violated federal sex trafficking laws and maintained a sexual relationship with a minor. He was, notably, not listed as a speaker on any official CPAC schedule, though Salon spotted the embattled lawmaker palling around the conference all weekend long. Gaetz, when approached about the conference claiming it did not recognize his event, said, "Well, I spoke at noon," adding, "there were a lot of people there, I spoke."

The dust-up isn't the first time Gaetz has found himself persona non grata by event organizers recently — earlier this week a hotel in California canceled an event the Congressman was planning with fellow Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga. "As soon as we found out who the speakers were we immediately canceled it," the hotel's manager told the Orange County Register. "We just thought it would be best for our facility to cancel." Look Ahead America also has a history of thumbing its nose at CPAC organizers — in February, the organization promoted and attended white nationalist Nicholas Fuentes' far-right gathering, "America First Political Action Conference (AFPAC)," which was created as a separate, rival conference to CPAC.

Wash. Times: YouTube deletes Trump video, freezes CPAC account:

ACU Chairman Matt Schlapp: 'This is yet another example of Big Tech censoring content with which they disagree'

YouTube deleted a video of former President Donald Trump from the American Conservative Union’s account and prevented the group from live-streaming the former president’s Sunday CPAC speech.

In a statement, ACU Chairman Matt Schlapp said the group learned that its account had been frozen for seven days over a video from Friday in which Mr. Trump announces his class-action lawsuit against the Silicon Valley titans such as Google and YouTube.

That loss of access to its video account meant the ACU, which runs the Conservative Political Action Conference, could not upload Mr. Trump’s speech or any other live content from its CPAC 2021 Part 2 in Dallas over the weekend.

According to the ACU, YouTube said in a note it had removed the July 9 episode of the conservative group’s “America UnCanceled” program for “medical misinformation,” though it did not specify the statement.

Here's the "christian" movement that promotes the lies of Trump.

This Christian movement wants a nation under God’s authority and is central to Trump’s GOP
A new and rapidly growing Christian movement is openly political and has become the engine of former president Donald Trump’s Republican Party.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2 ... 8060034242

The church is called Mercy Culture, and it is part of a growing Christian movement that is nondenominational, openly political and has become an engine of former president Donald Trump’s Republican Party. It includes some of the largest congregations in the nation, housed in the husks of old Baptist churches, former big-box stores and sprawling multimillion-dollar buildings with private security to direct traffic on Sundays. Its most successful leaders are considered apostles and prophets, including some with followings in the hundreds of thousands, publishing empires, TV shows, vast prayer networks, podcasts, spiritual academies, and branding in the form of T-shirts, bumper stickers and even flags. It is a world in which demons are real, miracles are real, and the ultimate mission is not just transforming individual lives but also turning civilization itself into their version of God’s Kingdom: one with two genders, no abortion, a free-market economy, Bible-based education, church-based social programs and laws such as the ones curtailing LGBTQ rights now moving through statehouses around the country.

This is the world of Trump’s spiritual adviser Paula White and many more lesser-known but influential religious leaders who prophesied that Trump would win the election and helped organize nationwide prayer rallies in the days before the Jan. 6 insurrection, speaking of an imminent “heavenly strike” and “a Christian populist uprising,” leading many who stormed the Capitol to believe they were taking back the country for God.

Even as mainline Protestant and evangelical denominations continue an overall decline in numbers in a changing America, nondenominational congregations have surged from being virtually nonexistent in the 1980s to accounting for roughly 1 in 10 Americans in 2020, according to long-term academic surveys of religious affiliation. Church leaders tend to attribute the growth to the power of an uncompromised Christianity. Experts seeking a more historical understanding point to a relatively recent development called the New Apostolic Reformation, or NAR.

They have a denomination. It is the Church of Trump who proclaims the glorious coming again of their savior Trump's presidency where he will rule for a thousand years of peace and they will all be raptured.

I went to their website. Then clicked on the Beliefs link. Most of their bullet-points are short paragraphs. But when you get to the marriage and family topic, they spend much more typing. They are fixated on LGBTQ+ and tearing them down.

Of course, they are. To their elk, faith is about restricting and denouncing others. Their own responsibility and that of their God (OSG) does not exist in their doctrine.

Its a bunch of Prosperity Gospel preachers who know a good grift when they see one. Everything about this "movement" leads back to fundrasing. Fomr the companies who process the payments to the pulpits where they call the gullible, its all "send money". The lawsuits, the rallys, the basic cable networks and internet TV channels are like a shark, a perfect eating machine. I doubt half of them at the top believe a word of it, but send your tax deductible contribution to:

I see 1 eyed seditionist Stewie was there. His soon to be ex wife wrote a blog thing about it.
https://thatgirltasha.com/f/do-i-think- ... go-quietly
We follow each other on the twitter and I have asked her a couple of questions and she always responds quickly. Her twitter thingy is here.

Thx for that, really interesting.

Interesting pic of Elmer in a hole in that post. Soon to be ex Mrs. Stewie says stuff about it. This is probably the wrong thread for Stewie nonsense. I might start a new one tomorrow if anyone cares about Stewie.
