CPAC Is Rocked by a Resignation

[RandySF]

A top leader in the organization that puts on CPAC, the highly influential conference of conservative leaders, resigned on Tuesday night, citing financial mysteries surrounding the organization’s leader,” New York Magazine reports.

“Bob Beauprez, the longtime treasurer of the American Conservative Union, said that he was not fully informed about money being paid for chairman Matt Schlapp’s legal defense against a lawsuit accusing him of sexual assault.”

Said Beauprez: “I cannot deliver a financial report at the upcoming board meeting with any confidence in the accuracy of the numbers.”

1. Matt Schlapp's private slush fund?

Isn't this why the NRA crashed and burned, too.

2. Why should an organization pay for person's personal lawsuit?

Or was CPAC saying they were okay with it?

3. Let's face it, the GOP is corrupt from the top down.

The whole organization needs an enema.

4. And a daily Schlapp in the face.

9. Schlapp can't keep his hands off the cash or the intern.

He does throw a swingin' holiday party: Ask the Gaetz's, Sebastian Gorka and Blackout Kavanaugh.

12. I need to add a corollary to my "Assholes are always perverts" maxim.

Assholes are always perverts, and when they are exposed they get suckers to pay their legal bills.

13. Oops,

They’ll soon be devouring one another in public 😀😀
