- Matt Schlapp, the chairman of the blockbuster CPAC convention beginning Wednesday, is pushing back on media criticism of him, calling the attacks an example of the Left’s efforts to silence conservatives.
- “Fake journalists,” Schlapp said in a recent interview, are “pushing this leftist agenda and lying, and I’m a victim of that, right? This media will take any charge and run with it if they can destroy a Republican or a Trump supporter or conservative. That’s what we have in this country.”
