Three male escorts in a new documentary have alleged that late Republican Senator Lindsey Graham paid them for sexual encounters, including one who says he was 17 at the time.

The CLOSETocracy, produced by Swamp Watch Studios and Tystnaden Films and released by the left-wing Young Turks network, features testimony from men who say Graham paid them for sexual encounters in Arizona and Washington, D.C. The allegations have not been independently corroborated.

One of the men, identified in the documentary as Kelvin, alleges he met Graham at a property in Arizona in 2001, when he was 17. He claims Graham paid him $120 for the encounter.

“My name is Kelvin. I had sex with Lindsey Graham when I was 17,” he says in the documentary.

You've got it precisely wrong. I really couldn't care less about age gaps. Soliciting sex for money is the issue, regardless of age.

That's even worse, especially now that this is the second time you've suggested pedophilia is not a problem.

I've never suggested such a thing. Pedophilia is always a problem.

Frankly, age gaps in male homosexual relations isn't anything special, even underage sexual activity.

You absolutely did normalize pedophilia. This is a warning. You will be banned from the community if you continue to defend pedophilia.

Not for conservatives. Seems like none of them have a problem with pedophilia.

If everyone is getting that out of what you said, then you did.
