Throughout the Conservative Political Action Conference in Dallas, speakers time and again insisted that liberals wanted to indoctrinate children with critical race theory, steal their guns, rig elections and flood the country with undocumented immigrants. They urged attendees to fight back.

Overall, the event, which would be capped off with a speech from former President Donald Trump, seemed like a watered-down version of the Qanon-affiliated For God & Country Patriot Roundup event that took place in Dallas over Memorial Day weekend.

This is an audio adaptation written, recorded and produced by me, based on reporting I did for the Dallas Observer.
