Jen Psaki

She held an event outside the Kennedy Center in defense of the First Amendment today, and she's headed to the flagship No Kings protest in Minnesota tomorrow.

And as the opposition only becomes stronger and more unified in this country, we are seeing, shall we say, a little less unity from Republicans right now.

We'll have much more on that when we come back.

The annual conservative political conference known as CPAC is currently underway in Texas, and it's going to be rocking all weekend long.

Everyone get excited.

Now, if you're not familiar with CPAC, it is one of the largest and most influential right wing conferences in the country.

And it's typically a pretty good indicator of the current direction of the Republican Party and the broader American conservative movement in the moment.

which means that these days it's basically a four-day-long MAGA rager filled with long-winded, dear-leader-like speeches praising Donald Trump and discussions about the right's latest culture war issues and targets.

Now, just to give you a sense of the vibes I'm talking about, here are the names of just a few of the sessions this year.

Defeating Communism, and We Mean It.

Don't Sharia my Texas.

Cigars, steaks and ivermectin, a Maha survival guide.

The president will sue you now how the legacy media was defeated, which literally was immediately.

And I love this part.

And with zero hint of irony, followed by the censorship industrial complex.

Now, the other thing to know about CPAC is that it's kind of like a bizarre right wing comic con where conservative activists, politicians and personalities gather together to rub elbows.

You can see anyone from top elected Republican politicians to key Trump administration officials like the number two guy at the Justice Department, Todd Blanchett.

He was speaking.
