Pretty sure any journalist with a little patience and a search engine could produce a fascinating story about the breadth and depth of sex predators within the MAGA movement.
The Trump administration helped bring back the Tate brothers (charged with rape and sexual trafficking), hosted Conor MacGregor (multiple allegations of sexual assault), and now invited Dom Lucre (horrific CSAM stuff) to the White House.
These are the people they're celebrating and defending.

Dom Lucre, who posted infamously horrific and wildly illegal child sexual abuse material to Twitter - and then had his account personally reinstated by Elon Musk - allegedly was recently invited to the White House.

Look, folks, this is it. The entire ballgame. Either we're a Republic of laws & the Constitution, or we have a dictator. This is fascism, & the impeachment vote should be happening today. Every single university president in the country should be out, in front of microphones, condemning this.

Imagine being an unelected South African who came here illegally, worth north of $300B and telling everyone in America that the pot containing *our own money that we paid into* is waste.
Won’t someone rid me of this meddlesome priest?

Musk: "The waste and fraud in entitlement spending -- that's the big one to eliminate. That's the half trillion, maybe 600 or 700 billion a year. That's also the mechanism by which Democrats attract & retain illegal immigrants by essentially paying them to come here & then turning them into voters."
