What is CPAC trying to hide?

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Secrets. Many people have them. Secrets are little pockets of mystery that often remain shrouded behind a veil of silence. But often, these secrets can be noxious. Often secrets are held from the world at large for a good reason — that reason being people would not react well to them were these dark particles of secrets to make themselves known.

And right now, the GOP has a secret. That secret resides — in Hungary. See, that is where CPAC is taking place. Budapest Hungary, not the United States, is hosting CPAC. That’s not the secret.

The secret is — something is going on behind the scenes. And the Republican party does not want us to find out what it is. I say this because many in the media have not been allowed to cover CPAC.

CPAC is refusing to let most American media inside the event. This is a first. It also, in this writer’s humble opinion, will not be the last. Can one imagine the conversations going on there? The words being spoken? The secrets being exchanged?

AP has been denied entrance. Rolling Stone has been turned away. The New Yorker was not let in. I could go on. What is it the GOP doesn’t want us to know? What secrets do they hope to hide?

CBS was allowed in. So we do know that Hungary’s President Viktor Orban spoke. And he called for a “worldwide conservative takeover.” Let those words sink in. Orban also suggested that Tucker Clarkson’s opinions run 24 hours a day.

This, my friends would be the conservative’s America — Viktor Orban’s America — an unrecognizable America. This is one secret that is only an idea — but we must put in the work required to win in November. Because if we don’t, this idea hovers on the precipice of becoming a reality.
