IMPORTANT to note that the CPAC theme for this year is America Uncanceled.
WHAT WE KNOW:
The Conservative Political Action Conference has scrapped musician Young Pharaoh’s appearance at its annual conference over a report that he called Judaism a “complete lie” and said it was “made up for political gain,” it was revealed Monday.
• Young Pharaoh was slated to speak during a Sunday session dubbed “Please Check the Number and Dial Again: Doubt, Dysfunction, and the Price of Missed Opportunities” but was removed from the schedule after his tweets came to light.
We have just learned that someone we invited to CPAC has expressed reprehensible views that have no home with our conference or our organization. The individual will not be participating at our conference.

THIS IS #CENSORSHIP AT ITS BEST! ALL BECAUSE I SAID “I DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE VALIDITY OF #JUDAISM AND AM WILLING TO PLACE $50,000 ON MY SELF TO DEBATE THE TOP #JEWISH RABBI”’ NOW IM NO LONGER INVITED TO @CPAC_TV #RACIST , #DICTATORSHIP , #YOUNGPHARAOH https://t.co/jRhNy3KMXA
