A good site selection for sure here in the most conservative city in America. But instead of any other choice of venue [like the convention center or amphitheater] the sponsors paid for staging this event in an "arts complex" supported financially by residents/patrons, event ticket-buyers and taxpayers.
MAC is owned and operated by the City of Mesa.
Blogger Note: An announcement for the event was made as "other presenters" on the Mesa Arts Center official website https://www.mesaartscenter.com/index.php/shows/other-presenters/freedom-summit that yours truly happened to miss except for a coincidence . . .
Let's just say yours truly was not "on-the-beat" looking for a story. It wasn't any assignment to "cover the news" since there's no chain-of-command in this independent journalistic endeavor, but an internal reporting instinct took over seeing "The Patriot" on the sides of a media-owned SUV with two guys stationed @ MAC. The event with few details, was memorialized on this blog dated Saturday, Sept 30th

Like some media outlets here in Mesa, your MesaZona blogger does not - as has never claimed - that only "good news" is reported.
That would totally distort real life no matter the slant or bias of those other publications in their so-called mission to deliver the news. However, at times this journalist has perhaps become over-sensitive to some criticism for being "a Rabble-Rouser" and "a Trouble-Maker" but that's the way it goes when some officials want to control and dictate who and what is published, oftentimes "spoon-feeding" news they want regurgitated and made public to selected reporters in mainstream media. That's not happening here.
The Freedom Summit/Battle For American Greatness event last Saturday @ MAC was prime time material ripe for hype for what a local attorney termed "paparazzi reporting" when wanting to avoid sensationalistic coverage over an issue that arose in the run-up for what turned out to be voter rejection of a proposition in last November's general election.
A high-priced VIP Ticket got you access to 9 top named speakers: Dinesh D'Souza, Mike Gallagher, Larry Elder, Guy Benson, Seth Leibsohn, Chris Buskirk, J.D. Hayworth, Ed Morrissey and Caleb Howe.
Ticket prices: VIP $111, Preferred $52, General Reserved $36
Fortunately, Maria Zuniga has provided her comments in an article a week later on October 8th with some details on reproductive rights and generalities about others:
Blogger's Note: over 700,000 women here in Arizona might be impacted by changes announced after this event permitting an exemption for business owners on "religious or moral grounds"
Republican gathering focuses on conservative issues, draws protesters
Protesters were focused on reproductive issues. . . Kim Mundis, who helped organize the protest was quoted as saying "They are pursing a religious-based agenda to control women."

The Freedom Summit is an annual seminar dedicated to promoting and advancing human freedom. To that end, the Freedom Summit offers speakers who have demonstrated their effectiveness in presenting the intellectual case for freedom.
The Freedom Summit offers a highly distinguished assortment of the best, brightest and most entertaining people in the freedom movement today. The Freedom Summit is an annual update on the current status of freedom in our world from several varied perspectives. Rather than seek to present either an optimistic or pessimistic outlook, the Freedom Summit strives to present an honest and straightforward assessment of the current status of our freedom.
Socialism and other coercive centralized planning schemes have failed to improve and indeed worsened, the human condition. As such, the Freedom Summit does not encourage or promote any particular centralized plan to achieve freedom. Rather, the Freedom Summit encourages individuals to promote freedom in non-coercive ways which are best suited to their individual talents.
The Freedom Summit is a forum for the vigorous and peaceful exchange of ideas about how humans ought to interact with each other. People recently introduced to the concepts of freedom as well as lifelong supporters of freedom are encouraged to attend. Additionally, those who support a coercive government are also welcome to attend and examine their views in light of the ideas and arguments presented.
