    Once again, not a drag queen.

    It seems the church leaders have developed a sizable lead over the drag queens in this category.

      Churches should be required to have supervising drag queens, would help prevent abuse. Priest you need to meet one on one with a kid? Fine, but only if this fabulous queen here sits in the room with you both.

    He has not been criminally charged, but Texas’ statute of limitations does not cover sexual offenses committed against a child.

    Sounds like the pressure now should be on the local district attorneys that are failing to charge him for molesting a child.

    Wait, a “religious” person as a child molester? Say it ain’t so! This is the one bad apple I’m sure.

    Do I need the /s?

    No quasi about that.

    He confessed to molesting a 12-year-old girl as a 20-year-old.

    Zero quasi.

      The word you were looking for is “raping.”

      (Let’s not normalize pedophilia by using words that describe sexual acts engaged by people who aren’t pedophiles.)

    Conservatives are just projectors. Everything they are guilty of they blame on political opponents or demonize: pedophilia, gay sexual relationships, corruption, and not caring about the average worker. That’s not to say Democrats don’t sometimes fall into these categories, but it’s definitely to a lesser extent.

      Christian leaders don’t need secret islands, they have a whole flock willing to serve up children and cover it all up

        Epstein didn’t need an island either.

        He wanted an island.

        Do you think he only started raping girls once he got the island?

          Dude got paid to help rich people rape poor people, and he made so much money he could afford to buy an island.

          Every account of every job he ever had was that he was unqualified and corrupt, and that he was “friends” with someone in a high enough place to protect him. It’s very likely that he was a pimp his entire career and that every job he failed to do well can be explained as a cover for his real role.
