“A man is known by the company he keeps”

― Aesop

Watch how fast nothing happens as a result of this.

when they complain "they gays are grooming our kids" the part they hate is the "gays" part, not the "grooming our kids" because they want dibs on that and think we want what they want

Is that also Santorum?

edit: yes, yes it is. unsurprising.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Most notably, according to a photo posted to his Facebook account and unearthed by Business Insider, Johnson proudly campaigned in 2014 with a man who would become one of the most notorious sex offenders in recent history — disgraced reality TV star Josh Duggar.

Duggar, who was convicted of possessing child pornography in 2021, worked as a lobbyist for the Christian evangelical activist group Family Research Council from 2013 to 2015, when allegations surfaced that the former "19 Kids and Counting" star molested several minors, including his own sisters.

Duggar, who was 25 when Perkins hired him, moved his young family to Washington, D.C. to take on the lobbying role, appearing over the next two years alongside GOP candidates like Mike Huckabee, Rick Santorum, Ted Cruz, and Bobby Jindal.

"My friend, former U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum, the Pennsylvania Republican who won Louisiana's presidential primary in 2012, will be a special guest at the rally tonight," Johnson wrote on his personal Facebook in December 2014.

"Business Insider's attempt to link Johnson to his misconduct based on a decade-old Facebook post about his attendance at a campaign rally prior to Duggar's conduct being exposed is quite ridiculous."

Since then, sworn testimony and emails unearthed in lawsuits have indicated that church leaders and local GOP politicians were aware of allegations that Pressler had abused minors as far back as 2004.
