As the infection grows the abscess gets bigger, and eventually it will burst when he dies. It's going to take strong wound care measures, but I believe we can heal the ulcer that's left. The light of day is a strong antibiotic.
This is a very good analysis of the problem but it doesn’t give any good responses to how to fix the situation in a constructive way, swinging too far in another direction.
This country needs to level the ship so it can move forward and stop going around in circles.
Educating people is imperative, but it's a task that comes after the proper weaponry of resistance is selected. There's little point in giving people the ability to identify an implacable enemy without arming them to stop it.
The piece is grounded in recent, publicly documented criminal cases involving people connected to the MAGA political ecosystem. In 2025 alone, Minnesota state senator Justin Eichorn was arrested in a Bloomington sting after allegedly arranging to meet someone he believed was a minor. South Carolina Freedom Caucus co-founder RJ May agreed to plead guilty in a criminal case involving child sexual abuse material, with every detail coming from court filings and statements by prosecutors. And in Wisconsin, Republican-aligned activist Scott Soucek was charged with multiple felony counts of possessing child pornography, a case announced publicly by law enforcement and covered across the state.
Those aren’t ancient scandals or cherry-picked outliers. They’re part of a recent cluster of arrests and charges involving MAGA-affiliated public figures in 2024–25. Add to that Indiana county commissioner John Jessup, who pleaded guilty in 2025 to attempted sexual assault in a criminal case; his conviction and sentencing are matters of public record. These cases are not rumors, not innuendo, not internet lore — they’re documented actions taken by police, prosecutors, and courts. When multiple individuals tied to a political movement face criminal charges of this nature in a short window of time, it’s fair to examine the cultural forces that allow it.
That’s what the article is doing: stepping back and analyzing the psychology, the structure, and the rhetoric that make these crimes more likely to emerge from certain political environments. The argument isn’t that every MAGA supporter is a criminal — it’s that the movement’s architecture has repeatedly offered predators cover, credibility, and protection until law enforcement intervened. The evidence is public, recent, and real. The analysis explains the pattern.
I don't know that he is MAGA, per se, but he's almost certainly a conservative. He said, as a judge, that Dylan Roof's family should be considered victims too.
Judge James Gosnell’s (NC) indictment details some of the absolute most depraved conduct that is possible. He talked about raping infants. He admitted to fondling a neighbor's toddler’s vagina under a blanket on a park bench in public. He spoke of having traveled to Mexico to rape toddlers.
He was not just in possession of CSAM, he was a gleeful perpetrator who celebrated his deviancy with other like minded individuals online. He was utterly evil in every possible sense. No, he did not simply possess CSAM (7 USB drives of images). He was one of the lowest, most vile individuals to ever walk this earth. He existed without a shred of humanity in him.
So yes, they hide in their "conservative values", especially when they have any position of power over others.
Our culture has not only allowed but rewarded all this behavior! All you have to do is analyze why/how Epstein’s empire flourished to see this at its pinnacle.
We must rebuild our ethical moorings, or our society will sink !
Wow. Reminds me of that creepy movie..Eyes Wide Shut.I remember thinking.. that shit really goes on. And it terrified me. A cult within a cult. 😱
I wouldn't be surprised if that movie is based on the Epstein ring of pedophiles of which he was a mere cruise director.
Yes, thats true. Unbelievable how far this reaches and the extraordinary cover-up. Yet for the victims..nothing!🤬💔
My thoughts also. Eyes Wide Shut in real life.
They break all the Commandments.
Notable today that Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman split after the movie 'Eyes Wide Shut'. A movie and event relevant still today.

We're open to any suggestions you have. We think educating people is imperative.

More evidence, please. This rant is all asertion. You might be right but as a consumer I would like more substance

Don't forget one of Trump's former evangelical advisors who got a slap on the wrist for his molestation of a young girl.

Outstanding work! Thanks a lot.
This explains a lot, not only in MAGA land but also the church/religious world
Sounds like Mikey Johnson’s playbook.
That man is seriously disordered.
Excellent analysis!
This is why the entire party has to be demolished and turned into pariahs the same way Nazis were after World War II.
Superb and incisive writing

Because the MAGA movement recruits from the subterranean depths of society, Thats why!
Besides just being scum-sucking bottom feeders?
