Summary

Minnesota Republican state Sen. Justin Eichorn, who introduced a bill classifying “Trump Derangement Syndrome” as a mental illness, was arrested for allegedly soliciting sex from a minor.

Police say Eichorn believed he was meeting a 16-year-old girl but was actually texting undercover officers. His arrest came just a day after he and four other Republican senators introduced the controversial bill.

Eichorn, who is married with four children, was booked into jail and will be transferred to the Hennepin County Adult Detention Center.

        I’ll always be bitter and upset when I see people snarking on Dodge, they fully deserve it but I just love their body styles and designs compared to most modern cars. The dodge caliber is the only wagon I’ve ever seen that made me drool and even though it’s out of production I’m still considering purchasing one to this day for work equipment hauling.

          I’ll give you that. A lot of Dodge vehicles do look pretty badass.

          It’s too bad they have utterly garbage reliability almost across the board.

      I’m certain they will blame this on the deep state and deny he ever did it, no matter what evidence.

        Oh well. These people entered government willingly. They are the deep state.

          I agree, but I’m saying that the MAGAs can’t accept that their cult ever does any wrong. They stormed the capitol themselves and blamed it on AntiFA. They will definitely not condemn this guy, they’ll say it’s fake news and the deep state antiFA boogeymen came for this brave guy.

            That’s why you have to keep asking them questions. Antifa did it? Why’d they get pardoned by Trump? They’ll usually disengage or start hurling insults.

    This is fucking hilarious. What a twisted fuck. He’s deranged in multiple ways, and probably a lot more we don’t know about. Probably beats his wife and kids, and kicks his dog. Probably head of the HOA, too.

    I hope his worst colleagues in prison have lots of fun with him.

    Pedocon theory is a theory just like gravity is a theory. Projection is their loudest attribute.

      Modern conservatives lack the creativity to imagine plausible damning accusations.

      They must draw from life.

      When they hilariously try, we get “Jewish space lasers” and “pizza parlor child fight club rings.”

      Then they get angry that basically every creative and artistic field is dominated specifically by not them. When they get handed a budget to attempt creativity, we get preachfest garbage like “God’s not dead 23” that spends 2 hours basically turning to the camera lecturing viewers about conservative grievances in the form of repetitive gotcha strawman scenarios like it’s Festivus.

      That’s the problem with only hating, with only negativity, with only being against change. It’s like trying to grow a flower by watering it with vinegar.

    Once again, not a drag queen. We need to ban religious figures and Republican politicians from reading to children.

    Is there something about wealth or power that just turns certain peoples brains into pedo-mush?

      Probably a combination of factors. Consider that pedophilia and sexual predation are anti-social behaviors and that people who enter into higher/high level politics or business have anti-social tendencies as well. You can’t run a district, company, city, state, country, etc. that require you to sacrifice for the imperatives you’re seeking. You can’t get bogged down by caring for people. You see them as a means to an end. Objects with utility.

      Only sane people suspect these Nigerian prince grade con artists.

      Meanwhile, conservatives have already invested their life savings into the new super-legit cryptocurrency, PedoCoin™️.

    Oh wee. I played the game if it was pedophilia (it was), then was it a boy or girl (girl). I was wrong about the latter. Turns out cult leaders are perverts. Huh.
