South Carolina state Rep. RJ May (R) — an anti-LGBTQ+ politician who has accused drag queens and transgender people of harming kids — was sentenced to 17.5 years in federal prison on Wednesday after pleading guilty to five counts of distributing child sex abuse material (CSAM).

May — who was honored 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.

The craziest of the right loons are probably the one peddling in some sick shit.

2. As my gran always said...

Smeller’s the feller.

Where right-wingers are concerned this seems more and more to be the case. Seems like there’s another one arrested every day or more. *eyeroll*

11. She was awesome!

Still pushed the mower around her yard once a week and worked in her huge garden at 96.

Probably noteworthy that when she came forth with this little gem, she was usually talking about actual farts… Eleven kids and countless grandkids, most of them obnoxious and uninhibited boys. The saying is just too perfect not to apply in a broader sense, though.

3. Today's Republican Party. A bunch of social creeps.

We used to jail these anti=socialist creeps. Instead, they found a home in the Republican Party. A tent of of low intelligent, social degenerates.

9. How do the right-wing nut jobs maintain any credibility?

This is only the most recent example of malevolent abuse of children — there’s a very long history of others.

How morally and intellectually compromised do you have to be to keep drinking this right-wing kool-aid?! FFS.
