The eyes of the political right will focus Saturday on Tulare County.

That’s the site for Rep. Devin Nunes’ Freedom Fest featuring the Tulare congressman, civil liberties attorney Harmeet Dhillon, Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe, and other conservatives.

According to the event’s website, Freedom Fest is sold out: “We will put you on a waiting list and let you know if we will be able to accommodate you.”

Tickets are priced at $10 to $100.

Although Freedom Fest’s exact location isn’t revealed on its website, GV Wire has learned that the event will be at the International Agri-Center in Tulare.

The speakers are expected to cover a range of topics and claims often explored on Fox News, One America News Network, and Newsmax. Among them: the California recall of Gov. Gavin Newsom, eco-terrorism, the Deep State, Big Tech tyranny, the threat posed by China, and Obama’s shadow presidency.

Other billed speakers:

  • Amanda Milius, director of the movie “Plot Against the President”
  • Kash Patel, former deputy assistant to President Donald Trump and Department of Defense chief of staff
  • Lee Smith, author of the book “Plot Against the President”
  • Rep. Andy Biggs of Arizona
  • Rep. Mike Garcia of California
  • Erica Kious, owner of San Francisco’s eSalon, where a mask-less Speaker Nancy Pelosi had her hair washed and blown out in September during the pandemic
  • Trent Loos, a sixth-generation farmer
