After the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, conservative conspiracy theorists spread a rumor that March 4 would be the next big date in which conservative voters would rise to power again.
The right-wing conspiracy group QAnon believes that President Donald Trump will officially become the president again on that date at the inauguration ceremony and will create the long-awaited "storm." The explanation of "the storm" is that mass arrests and deaths of what they believe are satanic pedophiles in the so-called "deep state."
Former President Donald Trump forced attendees to the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) to wait over an hour on Sunday after he failed to show up on schedule.
Minutes before the former president was scheduled to appear on stage in Orlando, Fox News broke the news to their viewers that he just left Palm Beach.
Former Vice President Mike Pence has been the least favorite Republican since voting to accept the electors for President Joe Biden as the president in January. The incident prompted insurrectionists to flock to the U.S. Capitol, complete with gallows where they chanted "hang Mike Pence" and searched for him during the siege.
Each year, CPAC does a straw poll for the next election, which generally helps give bragging rights to the winners to fundraise off of. More than three years out from the 2024 election, the CPAC voters have agreed that they want President Donald Trump as their GOP nominee. But Trump only got 55 percent in the poll. That said, it is a dramatic shift from the 2016 straw poll that was won by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) at 40 percent and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) at 30 percent.
