Guys it’s true, it’s been a long time coming, I am no longer an employee with The Blaze. While I am grateful for my experience with them over the years, it’s time for me to go back to being independent. (1/2)

I am unable to go into details, but I assure you my commitment to the cause is unwavering & I will not stop fighting for you. I am thankful for everyone, especially the SOBs, who have supported me along the way and I can’t wait to show you what’s next. (2/2)

Multiple sources have reached out to us alleging that the policy he violated was sexual misconduct related to indecent assault of a female staffer.

We reached out to Schaffer for comment but he referred us to his public Twitter statement and said he had no further comment.

Schaffer is currently scheduled to speak at an event for Collin County Conservative Republicans this Wednesday.

This is a developing story.

Update 9/20/22: We’ve updated the verbiage of the article to reflect the proper definition of indecent assault in the state of Texas.
