The Conservative Political Action Conference is rarely without its colorful cast of characters over the past decade or so. Hosted by the American Conservative Union (ACU), CPAC is where conservative Republicans 'come out and let their hair down'.
This weekend's Dallas CPAC included a segment that pretty much blew up Twitter, but for all the wrong reasons.
One of the booths at CPAC displayed a conservative activist in a jail cell acting like an incarcerated January 6 rioter.
Brandon Straka, who founded #WalkAway and was convicted on charges linked to the January 6 attacks on the U.S. Capitol, is seen wearing an orange jumpsuit in a prison cell. Praying over him is Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene.
The video was quickly uploaded across the Twitterverse and other social media outlets. Users were quick to draw parallels to it and the typical opening of a cheesy 1990's porn film.
Mr. Christopher asks: "What are they preying for? Wrong answers only."
The answers are a little too salacious for this family friendly website.
Porn shoot at @CPAC? https://t.co/KNhmeb8MSF

The actual CPAC video can be watched below and - spoiler alert - does not contain anything sexual or romantic in nature.

We couldn't let this one go though without having a little bit of fun.
Odds on the first current politician (still in office) to appear in an actual adult film or porn scene before December 31, 2022 (*"appear" does not necessarily mean "perform"):
