The Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) concluded its third day following speeches by a number of political heavyweights.
Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., Drew up the day’s events, referring to an “unexpected family issue.”
Here are four key moments of the day’s events:
Pompeo says China ‘smiled’ when America re-enters Paris’ climate agreement
“The Paris Agreement was a fantasy for elite diplomats who wanted the signal,” said former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. “When President Biden re-entered this agreement, I can tell you that Xi Jinping smiled every minute.”
“Since I last saw you, the Chinese have approved me,” former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo told the crowd. “The Iranians don’t think that much of me either.” China has sanctioned Trump administration officials for calling China’s actions against Uighurs and Muslim minorities in the Xinjiang region a ‘genocide’.
“It looks like Team Biden is on track to appease Iran again. It will be a disaster for the United States of America and a disaster for the region.”

Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., Said that although the GOP gets a reputation as the “party of no”, it is actually Democrats who embody the word.
“Republicans are called the party of no, but we say no to all their no. They do not want you to be able to protect yourself, they do not want you to have freedom of speech, they do not want you to have freedom of religion “they’re the party of no. We’re saying no, we’re saying a big ‘hell no’ to all their nos,” the ardent first-year lawmaker and gun rights activist told the crowd.
