Always knew this sanctimonious douchebag was a creep. Now it looks like he's a criminal one.

Is anyone surprised?

    There have been reports of this asshole being a pedo for years. But ever since covid, I honestly couldn't tell you if it was during the early Biden administration or a decade ago

    Unfortunately this will only make him more likeable by Republican voters, seeing as they support pedophiles.

    It's to get the hell out of middle of nowhere dead end towns. At least that was the draw when I was in, as well as my cousins, and father.

    I remember a time in 2010 or 2011 (I dont remember when exactly) that they said that sex was the last remaining thing that can ruin a politician's career.

    That hasn't been the case since Trump even started running for office in 2015. The level of debauchery is just disgusting. Even if Pete Hegseth was discovered to have made sex videos and they were leaked on porn hub, and then he responded by posting more sex videos he made more recently... this would probably do nothing to harm his career.

    People generalize this topic too much.

    If Pete Hegseth posted his sex tape it’d be wildly unprofessional, but ultimately who cares (and why should they?)

    If Pete hegseth posted the sex tape of an unwilling participant that he surprise donkeypunched while she was underage in exchange for money to get her tonsils out, that’s a bit of a different thing.

    America has taught too many people to cower at “what the LORD might think” and accept the word of their leaders as though it was handed down as such.

    So when they hear “SEX” they shut down and they go “only the DEVIL would make such accusations at the brave men who deliver our LORDS message to us!”

    It’s literally brainwashing.

    I have nothing against sex work, but this was not sex work; this was a goddan tragedy created by a bunch of monsters who created the current situation in which this can happen in the first place.

    Just one more reason why they want to keep you poor. So they can do shit like that. And worse.

    The fact that these cases always seem to end with “DOJ declined to bring charges” or some similar fate is disgusting

    We need to move past these things and finally concentrate on the really important issues, like transgender girls playing volleyball!

    The fact that representatives knew this happened, and accepted basically "if you step down from taking your next roll, we'll ignore it". Shows how absolutely every representative that wasn't screaming about it should be in prison right now.... Which means near all reps in Florida, and many in U.S. Congress.

    Also, token: Desantis absolutely allowed this to be covered up for political reasons/gain
