CPAC Part 3: AFPAC
Part 3: AFPAC (and National File)
On Wednesday and Thursday night, National File, a news org that looks kinda WN-friendly, had a dinner/party thing. I didn't learn about them until I had already gone back to my Airbnb, so I missed them both. Patrick Howley, a reporter for National File, was kicked out of CPAC for heckling Wayne LaPierre, the Vice President of the NRA. Howley tweeted later, "Very famous and influential people are outraged about me getting kicked out of CPAC for opposing Red Flag gun laws, @mschlapp..." and "Sorry CPAC Speech Police, nobody really gave a fig about your conference. Meanwhile our @NationalFile parties had lines around the block to get in! America First!"
(A video that Fairbanks posted Wednesday, the first day, showed a few empty rows tho, lol. I COULD'VE BEEN THERE!!)
Laura Loomer, Alex Jones, Pete D'Abrosca, Cassandra Fairbanks, Nick Fuentes, and others were at the National File events, either attending or giving speeches. Next time I'll make sure to remember that all the good stuff happens after CPAC shuts down for the night, so I'll be on the lookout.
Steve Franssen did a youtube video and said that the energy in the National File event on Thursday was amazing. He also said, haha, that, "There were lots of black people there."
He said that Uber locked his account for some reason, and a groyper got him an Uber.
On Saturday there was an egg-drinking contest, and boxing. Fun stuff!
He discussed how great it was when Jared Holt got T-Posed on on Friday.
Patrick Casey spoke first (for 16 minutes) on living as dissidents, and censorship and deplatforming. He joked about being banned from Twitter and said he definitely doesn't have a new Twitter account. (He sincerely doesn't, sadly.) He also explained how the right acts like the left when it comes to deplatforming, while saying WNs act like the left. Casey said: "I was actually kicked out of TPUSA's student action summit. They told me they were gonna refund me my $75. Charlie, I still haven't gotten a check." *crowd laughs* "Still waiting on it. They told me 2-3 business days. It never showed up. The point here... is that conservatism inc keeps people quiet... Stawmanning, character assassination, smears... I have yet to see one critique from any of these people, of any of the positions we actually hold."
He poked fun at Casey for being short, and at Fuentes for being Hispanic (maybe joking about Malkin being non-White as well).
AFPAC finished up with Michelle Malkin (38-minute speech).
Michelle said, "...America First. Not second, not third, not last. Not subordinate to Saudi Arabia, or China, or my ancestral land in the Philippines, or Israel..." *cheers* "...or anywhere else."
She later says that she has heard people are charged $250,000 for renting rooms near CPAC, so she wonders why AFPACers are the ones called grifters.
She said, "ConInc hates nationalist math. Math doesn't care about your feelings."
Here's a 2-minute video starting from minute 17 of her speech, where she discusses "anti-Semitism":
In minute 21 is the part of her speech that touched me the most. "[The word 'conservatism'] has become so tainted that it's an embarrassment to me to have identified so proudly as such. Ever since I was as young as you were, a college student."
I thought this was funny when she read a statement from YAF about her: "Immigration is a vital issue that deserves robust debate." HAHA
She ended with saying she does what she does because she's a mother, but she won't always be here to fight. We need to stick together.
Since I didn't actually attend the National File events or AFPAC, I feel like I missed out on a lot, but there was such a large presence of it online that I somehow feel like I was there.
I hope to attend AFPAC 2021 and see you all there.
Epilogue:
On Feb 29, Saturday afternoon, when AFPAC was over and CPAC was closing, Patrick Casey crashed a Principled Conservatives Summit, which apparently opposed CPAC for not being neoconservative enough.
And beginning just 1 day later, held from March 1-3, AIPAC had a conference in DC. Some attendees from New York had been in contact with someone with coronavirus. Now...
Fairbanks tweeted this with a GIF that said "winning." I guess she deleted it after news came that a CPAC attendee, who is most likely Jewish, was infected with coronavirus.
On Wednesday and Thursday night, National File, a news org that looks kinda WN-friendly, had a dinner/party thing. I didn't learn about them until I had already gone back to my Airbnb, so I missed them both. Patrick Howley, a reporter for National File, was kicked out of CPAC for heckling Wayne LaPierre, the Vice President of the NRA.

Ashley Rae was there:

| Another groyper told me how awesome this was as well. It's weird; I vaguely remember hearing crowds gathering, and I was probably unknowingly witnessing interesting events that looked like nothing to me at the time. |
 |
| Very fine people! |
 |
| What is he thinking? |
 |
| Wake the f*** up, Samurai. We have a city to burn. |
Mindy Robinson was arrested after AFPAC at a restaurant after choking a guy and getting in a fight with his gf.
Mike Cernovich also showed up to the restaurant, to little fanfare, says one source.
 |
| She's running for congress, btw |

So, AFPAC was on Friday night. Jared Holt reports that it was at the Clarion Collection Hotel in Arlington. Baked Alaska, Gavin McInnes, Roosh V, and Ralph Retort were there.

| There were some black people at AFPAC. I won't post pictures (yuck!) |

Here's an 82-second video containing that quote (it's from minute 7-8 of the full video.)
Scott Greer spoke second, for 23 minutes. His speech was "A Struggle for Trumpism," about how Trump didn't appeal to "free markets" and "liberty," but to immigration.
He poked fun at Casey for being short, and at Fuentes for being Hispanic (maybe joking about Malkin being non-White as well).
He spoke about "America First" and identity politics being here to stay, and how Conservative Inc should be worried.
Nick Fuentes then spoke for 25 minutes, starting off the speech discussing the difference between the serious Anglos (Greer and Casey) and the fun Med (himself), so he got the crowd excited with a "Groyper" chant. He spoke about Charlie Kirk, the Groyper Summit (which was an informal summit, unlike the fancy AFPAC), and how his previous CPACs were fun while they lasted.
Here's an 40-second video about CPACers telling him he needs to stop talking about Israel (the clip is from minute 22-23.)
