Matt Schlapp and his wife Mercedes have a long reputation of being the conservative darlings of Washington, D.C.
They are known for the lavish shindigs at their Virginia mansion with an array of cocktails and line-up of some of the most influential figures on the right.
The parties at Conservative Political Action Conferences have become stuff of legend - with late nights in hotel suites, drunken arguments and on-the-nose comments that would lead to being 'cancelled' if made in public.
But in recent months their presence and image in the nation's capital has taken a hit because of misconduct allegations against Matt Schlapp.
American Conservative Union treasurer Bob Beauprez, one of the leaders of CPAC, resigned this week over payments made in Schlapp's defense in a lawsuit accusing him of sexual assault.
Republican staffer Carlton Huffman claimed Schlapp grabbed his crotch during a night of drinking while they were on the campaign trail with Herschel Walker in Georgia in January.

I've heard the name, but had no idea who he was, what he's done or how he became wealthy.
