No, no, no! The Right is leading the charge to bring child molesters, pedophiles, and sexual abusers to light and ultimately to justice. Just witness our executive prioritizing public disclosure of all the ~~Epstein~~ Earhart files and documents. Habba, Bondi, and Ka$h are on the caseđź’¤ ---

> [@smithsb](#): > > The Right is leading the charge to bring child molesters, pedophiles, and sexual abusers to light and ultimately to justice But how can you bring a whole bunch of child molesters do justice if you don’t have a bunch of molesters? As usual the Republicans are working on the supply side of the problem. ---

Wow! If Vance was around for the Nuremberg Trials, he could have gotten the Nazis off with this line of defense - stupid talk. This same Vance guy who was tossing off the bomb, explosion … emojis in the Signal chat about bombing Yemen. This same Vance guy who’s fine with murdering people on the high seas without evidence of trial. This same Vance guy kissing the ass of the fat turd he called Hitler wanna-be. His wife and children must be so proud. And this on the Charlie Kirk Show. CK WAS the same as these racist/ nazi punks but with a thin veneer of civility covering his grotesque ideas. From The Hill - "Vice President Vance said Wednesday he did not want the racist remarks in the [explosive Young Republicans group chat](https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5556867-young-republican-scandal-politico-who-involved/) to ruin the participants’ lives, dismissing them as “stupid” jokes made by “kids.” In an interview on “The Charlie Kirk Show” — which is now hosted by allies of the late conservative activist — the vice president [doubled down on his viral tweet](https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5556321-vance-compares-texts-republicans/) in which he dismissed “pearl clutching” over [the new Politico report](https://www.politico.com/news/2025/10/14/private-chat-among-young-gop-club-members-00592146?nid=0000018f-3124-de07-a98f-3be4d1400000&nname=politico-toplines&nrid=c4672fec-d82c-4b58-84a6-992bf467da2b). ---

This would be the same J.D. Vance who said that anyone who said anything remotely critical of Charlie Kirk should be reported to their employer and fired. But we can’t have such a thing happening to these nice young Republican kids. ---

And now Vermont state senator Samuel Douglass has announced he’s resigning.

When one participant in the group chat described somebody as a “very obese Indian woman” and another wrote that she “was not Indian,” the senator wrote, “She just didn’t bathe often.” Actually, he could make a case that his comment was offensive but not bigoted (ignoring context). His wife however is another story… > [@](#): > > In a separate exchange, Brianna Douglass wrote about a Jewish colleague involved in a national convention, “I was about to say you’re giving nationals to [sic] much credit and expecting the Jew to be honest.” Delightful folks.
