That’ll be the day. When that lot stop quit tryna’ do the wee ones. Still no drag queens anywhere near the offense. In other news, water is wet & republicans are pedos. It’s almost Memorial Day Weekend in The USA. Are you ready for all the shopping deals & maybe firing up the grill to kick off the summer season? Well just remember one more thing you good people. May we not forget to ask the important question. How about those doggone Epstein Files? Aaaaaaand what side dish are you bringing to the potluck?
Ok, srsly for a moment only. May we may honor those that in good faith have served our country to honor and protect the values that once this revisionist history loving country stood for, a constant work in progress this 250 year old nation is. It ain’t perfect, has its ups and downs. Hopefully the ratio of people that give a F—k about s—t will increase. Ain’t holding my breath or anything. I may be naive, but at least I have some hope. When that’s gone, it’s over.
The apple don’t fall far from the trump
Rivera resigned immediately following his arrest.
Doesn't really sound like a Republican to me.
low level pedos do, but the ones in trumps circles dont.
Gonna get him a cabinet position if he gets caught again.
I looked up where he's at - Weld County, which is a large county in Colorado. So he ain't exactly a senator.
LOL, related story in there: "GOP lawmaker said trans people “harm” children. Now he’s going to prison for child porn."
Republicans would still vote for this guy.
Actually, they would be more inclined to vote for him now that he's confirmed as a pedo.
Another Wednesday in 'Murica.
He looks the part.
Another non-LGBTQ person
And another Republican. Curious.
"Disable your adblocker"
Nope.
So I'll only comment on the thumbnail picture and his political affiliation.
Picture:
Dear paedos, if you are going to rape children then, ffs, don't actually style yourself as a paedo. This guy could only really look more like a child rapist if he had the word CHILD FUCKER tattooed on his head. Or painted himself orange and then talked about fucking his own daughter.
Political affiliation:
Republican. The party of paedo protectors. Need I say more?
Nowadays any person who supports that party should automatically be put in the 'watch them around children' category for the rest of their lives.
Fork found in kitchen
😂
Must not be a billionaire if he was arrested.
How is a 24 year old a former GOP leader? Like this dude has wrong written all over his face. How the fuck is he leadership material unless they've gerrymandered his bathroom into its own district?
Wow, so presidential.
He's just following the example made by his cult's god-emporer
Does Hunter Rivera look like he has fetal alcohol syndrome? Maybe it's a bad mug shot?
Hard to tell with the mustache. Eyes look like it. Flat mid-face might just be fat mid-face.
Although funny in this specific case, FAS doesn’t automatically make a person dumb or a child molester.
That’s usually exclusive to religious people and conservatives.
That’s usually exclusive to religious people and conservatives.
Unfortunately, no.
9/10
Yeah we like to think that because it permits to say that the problem lies with others, while the whole society is touched by this problem. Most people on the Epstein list aren't religious or conservative, and in my very secular and quite progressive country, France, we still have a lot of pedophiles. Last scandal was in public schools of Paris, and it's not a haven for conservatives or religious people, quite the opposite.
9/10
To repeat it won't make it true.
For every 1 socialist you name who has molested a child, I’ll give you 9 conservatives who have.
You begin…
You'd have no problem to do that indeed, but it's because there's far more than 9 conservatives for 1 socialist in America today.
America? You can include the whole world. Go for it. I’m… waiting…
inbred upon inbreds.
I agree with you, FAS doesn't make anyone a child molester. His whole face just seemed off to me.
Well yes, his whole face does seem off. Perhaps he got dropped on his face as a baby.
Not nearly hard enough.
looks like an ai render of a Minecraft character
hes able to store fat in his cheeks or his jaw is all swollen.
SHOW ME THAT UPPER LIP BOY
Nah, that’s just what the typical ‘superior white race‘ looks like.

The real shocking news here is that he was actually arrested for it. (Not holding my breath for a conviction.)
No. Way.
I simply cannot believe it.
why resign tho
"He wants to spend more time with his children" /s
Well, yeah, he's MAGA. They're ALL pedophiles, and traitors, and corrupt, and racist...
Punchable face.
