Delivers lie-filled CPAC speech attacking Biden, Jan 6 investigation

Trump delivered a speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Orlando, Florida, continuing to spread election lies and attacking the Biden administration and the January 6 committee. He teased a 2024 presidential run while addressing the ongoing Ukraine crisis and repeating his praise of Putin from earlier in the week. The speech was filled with false claims about the 2020 election being "rigged" and painted the Jan 6 investigation as politically motivated persecution. Trump used the platform to attack Democrats, the media, and Republican critics while positioning himself as the party's likely 2024 nominee.
