Projection!
It’s always projection with ~~pedophiles~~ Republicans
A tale as old as time.
Why isn’t this on ABC, NBC or CBS? Oh, right. Because the owner is probably in the Epstein files.
>May — who was [honored](https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/06/moms-for-liberty-honored-this-gop-rep-he-was-just-arrested-for-kiddie/) by the anti-LGBTQ+ “parents’ rights” group Moms for Liberty in 2023 as its Legislator of the Year — first denied the charges after investigators found evidence that he had shared hundreds of images of kids, including pictures of adults raping seven-year-olds. Judge Cameron McGowan Currie, who sentenced May, said the CSAM he shared was “more severe” than any other she had ever seen before, [WIS-TV reported](https://www.wistv.com/2026/01/14/ex-sc-rep-rj-may-be-sentenced-federal-child-sexual-abuse-material-charges/).

Hypocrisy, thy name is Christian nationalist.
I just bank it at this point that any Christian nationalist fear-mongering about trans people is secretly a predator in disguise. Christian nationalists wrap themselves “godly” fanfaronade, but they truly are sadistic monsters deep down.
Sounds like he’s got potential as a GOP candidate for 28
It’s now become so frequent that you automatically assume anyone attacking the LGBTQ community has some heinous crimes they are hiding.
Statistically speaking, your child is more likely to get molested by a Republican than die in a car crash
At least *one* pedophile is going to prison, it’s like the best news we’ve had all week. Or month. Or …
Wow, he should be promoted to president’s assistant
Trump in oval office today, a young, about 9 year old girl right next to him. Not that in itself wasn’t disturbing enough, he was rambling on about executions and killings while she stood there looking a bit lost.
Such a mild sentence for what he did. SMDH.
God, these fucking people.
Gaslight
Obstruct
**PROJECT**
Well well well
Maybe it would be easier and quicker to name all the Repbulicans who aren’t pedophiles.
They might as well rename themselves the Pedo Party at this point
Typical suspects
GOPed
they really are the Guardians of Pedophiles party
Wow. Seems to be a common pattern.
Every accusation is a confession.
*Every accusation from the Right is an admission and confession.*
Sooo… Pretty much run of the mill Republican.
So how many trans people have been convicted of abusing children? And how many MAGA have?
🤣🤷🏽♂️
How long until he has his sentence commuted, and is in the Trump cabinet?
Hope he never sees the outside of those walls. Absolutely f**king disgusting !!!
The people screaming about the darkest shit, know it is happening because they are doing it.
The accusations are always an admission of guilt.
r/NotADragQueen
I would say their fellow politicians having sex with kids is damaging children.
Lock him up!
If you go extra hard against queer people, I suspect you of doing some shady shit…
Maga is an objectively pro predator movement.
Gutless Old Pedophiles
Still not a drag queen.
Every. Fucking. Accusation. Is. Projection.
Anyone adamantly complaining about trans people should just immediately be the recipient of a search warrant.
SHOCKED! JUST ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED! The Grand Ol Pedophiles elected a pedophile…SHOCKED!
Republicans sure love their child porn and child rapists.
I’m sure every single one of them will vote against the party that keeps getting busted for this shit.
Love this timeline. The right is beyond sick. All we asked was to acknowledge pronouns. They told everyone that meant letting men into women’s bathrooms while they were busy sexually harassing women and children.
Edit: and the rest of them, for reasons I’ve studied but still can’t fathom, are terrified of skin colors.
Another republican pedophile, add it to the pile.
It’s always the ones you most suspect
Can we please stop calling it “child porn?” It’s child abuse material. Full stop.
Rule 1: if a Republican hates it, they’re already doing it.
For the…. Checks notes. 193rd time, it’s always the people you most suspect. GOP is a breeding ground for pedophiles and their enablers that yell about everyone else being pedophiles.
All Republicans are pedophiles.
**State Republican Legislator from South Carolina R.J. May** is his name.
Needs to be in the headlines…
It’s always the Republicans who diddle kids
All Republicans are like this. They just haven’t caught the others yet.
It’s always who you most suspect
