"CNN's SE Cupp reacts to far-right conspiracy theorist, Jack Posobiec, speaking at CPAC, the Conservative Political Action Conference, to "replace" democracy." 

From CNN

"Republican former congressman Charlie Dent shares his thoughts on the Conservative Political Action Conference in Dallas, where former President Donald Trump won the conference's informal straw poll to be the Republican nominee in 2024." 

From CNN

"Clips on social media show activist Jack Posobiec talking about the "end of democracy" at the Conservative Political Action Conference and saying, "We are here to overthrow it completely."

Posobiec was speaking at the CPAC event, which was a panel session hosted by former White House strategist Steve Bannon.

Newsweek has approached CPAC for comment via an email outside of normal working hours. A direct contact for Posobiec could not be found, but an out of normal hours approach was made to the online publication Human Events via Instagram and an online form.

"Welcome to the end of democracy," Posobiec said, also referring to the Capitol riots. "We are here to overthrow it completely. We didn't get all the way there on January 6, but we will endeavor to get rid of it and replace it with this right here."

Posobiec then held up his fist, and added: "All glory is not to government. All glory to God." Some people in the crowd responded with applause.

On the social media site X, formerly Twitter, Posobiec responded to comments reacting to what he said, with some speculating he was being sarcastic.

From Newsweek

Former U.S. Representative Charlie Dent (Republican, Pennsylvania) talking to Brianna Keilar and John Berman on CNN: 

"CPAC has always been an odd gathering. But now it's been taken over by radicals, anti-vaxers. It's a land of misfits, toys, it's a political freaks show. It's the Star Wars bar, it's bizarre... Serious people are not showing up to this thing. They had their stupid straw poll, its rank choice now. They're not serious and one doesn't know if they should laugh or they should cry about what they're watching and witnessing at these CPAC gatherings." 

I'm well aware that CPAC stands for: "Conservative Political Action Conference", but come on, is this really a conservative event anymore? 

If you look at the American political spectrum as far as where Americans are politically as far as which party that they're registered with: Democrats are at around 30%, Republicans are at around 30% and then you have that 40% that aren't either and in many cases are registered Independents. 

There's always been a hardcore, far-right in America, as well as far-left, that doesn't register with either party, for the simple reason that they don't believe either party is radical enough for them. 

The so-called Republican Party today, has what's left of the center-right in that party, the Adam Kinzinger's, the Liz Cheney's, the S.E Cupp's, the Charlie Dent's, the Nikki Haley's. But their far-right is the party now primarily, because those far-right Independents and former far-right 3rd party people, who again always believed that that the Republican party was too establishment, too mainstream for them, are now also members of the Republican Party. Or as I like to call the Republican Party today: Republicans in Name Only. Why? Because they don't even believe in the concept of the republic, let alone Republicanism. 

You think Jack Posobiec is a far-right radical? Well, he is, but not in the modern Republican Party, that's more willing to believe Russian political and intelligence operates, than own country's intelligence community. And that's not just today. That was back in the Trump Administration as well. 

Russia didn't interfere into the 2016 presidential election, because Vladimir Putin said so. (According to these far-right RINOS) Even though the entire American intelligence community said that of course Russia interfered into the 2016 elections. Including people that President Donald Trump appointed, like Mike Pompeo, Chris Wray, Nikki Haley, Marx Esper, Jeff Sessions, Bill Barr, and many others. But Russia said no, so that's who these RINOS believe. 

CPAC today is really just: Crazy People At a Convention. And I mean that in a political sense. Before these escaped political mental patients accuse me of slander or defamation. As Charlie Dent said, this is not a serious group. Or as I would like to put it, they're the American political version of a Star Trek Convention, except that these folks aren't loyal to Star Trek. They're loyal to Donald J. Trump.
