Another Republican caught with kiddy porn

https://nypost.com/2025/04/02/us-news/ex-nyc-councilman-dan-halloran-arrested-at-florida-miami-airport-on-child-sex-abuse-charges/

Of course, the Post does not mention that he is a Republican. Not only is he Republican, about 10 years ago he was convicted of taking a $200k bribe. He went to a well-known Catholic university, Fordham University.
This guy is like a walking stereotype of a Republican.

It was an eye-popping tally of repugs and their sex crimes. The site didn’t get kept up, as I don’t remember updates after the Larry Craig airport bathroom incident. Would be nice to see an updated website that documented repuQ sex crimes in a comprehensive way.

Ever notice how Republicans are obsessed with sex? Somehow, they conflate all sorts of evils to “protect our children.” Then, they sexually, emotionally, physically, medically and psychologically abuse the children.

Republicans seem to have many other sexual hang-ups as well. They hate everything that isn’t straight, heterosexual but then embrace the variations and kinks in their own lives.

It’s called blatant hypocrisy.

Incidentally, the violence of child pornography is dangerous and profound. In my quiet opinion, calling it kiddy porn diminishes the seriousness of these crimes.

PRETEND to present oneself as a bastion of "Family Values" and then commit the ultimate sin.

REPRESSING their sexual urges makes them OBSESS over them even more. Happens a lot to this crowd.

As did Geraldine Ferraro, Mario Cuomo, Charles Osgood, Denzel Washington and Alan Alda.
