Our Pedo-in-Chief has demonstrated to us that old institutions like the Gulf of Mexico, Lake Ontario, the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and even the state of New Mexico can stand a new identity.
With that in mind, I am offering up my suggestion for a name change as well.
As we head into the home stretch of the midterm elections, now less than a month away, it’s appropriate to take a quick review course of how Donald Trump and HOUSE SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON, as well as Texas Attorney General KEN PAXTON consistently protect child sex abusers.
And when they can’t protect them from prosecution, Trump (or Paxton) simply pardon them.
But for sheer hypocrisy, it’s damn-near impossible to top professed family values Christian Johnson, who ADJOURNED THE HOUSE in July 2025 in order to prevent a vote on the release of the Epstein files. That was seen as a move to protect only one person: Trump.
Of course, not all sex scandals in Congress belong to the Republicans as evidenced by a 2017 NEWSWEEK STORY. But in most cases involving a Democrat, his fellow party members called for his resignation—or he did so voluntarily.
No so those Bible-thumping, holier-than-thou Republicans. The cling to their jobs like toothpaste to the side of a bathroom sink.
There is STORY after STORY after STORY after STORY about Republicans who pursue children. Most seek relationships with underage girls while some seem to prefer boys. Others aren’t too particular. But they all have two things in common: they’re sleaze and they can count on their fellow Repugnantcans and right-wing media for COMFORT AND SUPPORT.
Just as it is with other Republican offenders, there is CASE after CASE in which TRUMP PARDONED child sex offenders, murderers, drug dealers or fraudsters.
But while Diaper Don was busy passing out over 1600 pardons since taking office a second time, it is the Republican elected officials who just can’t seem to keep their britches zipped.
For that reason, I am hereby following Trump’s own example and rebranding in institution.
No, I’m not proposing slapping my name on any building or monument, renaming a gulf or a great lake or a state.
I am suggesting that the initials GOP no longer stand for Grand Old Party. That’s so 19th Century. As of this moment forward, GOP stands for Guardians of Pedophiles.
Catchy, no?
