JD Vance Just Said Liberals Protect Sex Offenders. RIP Irony. Wait until JD finds out who he’s working for.

If Vance has a problem with sex offenders getting put back on the street, he should march down to the Oval Office and submit a resignation letter today — because no one has been more active in that cause than Donald J. Trump.

Trump’s Racist Bad Bunny Meltdown and His Pedophile Problem Collide Why Trump’s outrage over the Super Bowl halftime show was both racist and hypocritical.

Trump appears many thousands of times in the Epstein files. Now, because a Spanish-language mega star performed at the Super Bowl, he’s suddenly a guardian of children and a moral authority on what is appropriate for American families?

I Asked ICE Why It’s Still Keeping Liam Conejo Ramos Locked Up They were given a chance to explain why a sick five-year-old child remains in federal custody. They didn’t.
