A cringe collection of leftists are gathering for a summit and have tapped Mark Cuban as the headlining speaker.
The “Shark Tank” star and minority owner of the Dallas Mavericks will featured at the Principles First Summit, described as an affair styled like a Turning Point USA event and featuring a veritable who’s who of RINOs, leftists and has-beens.
NEW: Left-wing group is running its own “TPUSA”-style speakers event – and its headliner is Mark Cuban.
Other names include Adam Kinzinger, George Conway, Alyssa Farah and John Bolton.

Included in the roster of event guests are rabid anti-Trumpers Adam Kinzinger, George Conway, Alyssa Farah and John Bolton as well as Chris Christie and Michael Steele.
They’ve got more RINOS than an African safari.

Some social media reactions wondered if having Cuban as the headliner was a sign that he could be considering a 2028 presidential run.
Really feel like Mark Cuban is going to run for president.
Just feels like he has aspirations

Yep. He didn’t want to run this term because he didn’t want to get bent over by Trump.
This was definitely a trial run though!2028 he’s got a lock on the lesbian vote & this is his competition😅, if you can call it that.

The Washington, D.C. event is described as a “grassroots Summit on conserving America’s liberal tradition & the path to a principled future for our country.”
Scheduled to be held on February 21 – 23, the fifth annual summit is sold out and there is a waitlist on the event website. The gathering will “showcase the nation’s leading voices in defense of classical liberalism and principled, common-sense solutions to America’s problems.”
“We look forward to bringing together principled public officials, thought leaders, and grassroots activists for three days of discussion, strategy, and fellowship. We will address how we can preserve America’s classical liberal tradition in times of crisis, the urgent need for competent, solutions-driven leadership today, and the future of our movement,” the site says.
In addition to mocking the lineup for the event, X users wondered who would even be attending the now-sold-out summit.
The audience for this is the Lincoln Project and like 4 other people.
You don’t need an auditorium.
You just need like two picnic tables.They’ll still be room for a couple more people if anyone else wants to join.

Now that USAID is defunded, who is going to buy tickets ?

That’s the JV team, don’t expect to see any of them to get into the big games on Varsity much less take a snap. @mcuban alone insures no credibility among them. Mark turned into such a crybaby tool that I use to like.
