RNC Cancels Events Over Sex Club Scandal

The RNC is punishing those dirty boys and girls at the Young Eagles program, canceling all upcoming events scheduled for the group. The $1,946 the RNC spent at an LA bondage club appears to have been for a Young Eagles event, Politico reports. Some of the program’s other events have drawn raised eyebrows, too—like a planned excursion to a training compound run by the company formerly known as Blackwater.

The program is designed to lure young (as in, under-50) donors to the party. RNC officials hope they keep giving, and stress that though the events are canceled, the program has not been. “We will be looking at staff structure and measures for checks and balances,” one wrote in an email announcing the cancellation. “We will devise a plan for moving FORWARD with this club.” (More Young Eagles program stories.)
