   There’s A Long, Disgusting History Of Right-wingers Defending Child Predators   
      
   As conservative lawmakers and members of the media baselessly label LGBTQ   
   people and their allies as “groomers,” they have invited scrutiny of some of   
   their own behavior toward children — and their embrace of people found to   
   have sexually abused kids.   
      
   Unfortunately for right-wingers, the internet is widely accessible. On   
   Monday, progressive media watchdog Media Matters released a thorough timeline   
   highlighting conservative media personalities defending child molesters and   
   promoting the sexualization of children — and, in many cases, audio and video   
   footage is included as evidence.   
      
   The report features several figures you’re likely to know if you’ve been   
   following coverage of right-wing extremism in recent years. For example,   
   Media Matters shared audio of fired Fox News host Tucker Carlson on a shock-   
   jock radio show defending statutory rape and making perverted comments about   
   girls sexually experimenting at boarding school.   
      
   Avowed white nationalist Nick Fuentes made the list for claiming he’s “not   
   against grooming” children as long as they’re being groomed for marriage. And   
   podcaster Matt Walsh made the list after downplaying sexual abuse in the   
   Catholic Church as “not a pedophile scandal.”   
      
   The Media Matters report also includes Ian Miles Cheong, a popular Twitter   
   user on the right who has been known to attack LGBTQ people with “groomer”   
   claims. In since-deleted tweets, Cheong repeatedly said the age of consent is   
   too high.   
      
   And Media Matters also noted that Turning Point USA, a right-wing   
   organization run by Charlie Kirk, has collaborated with multiple convicted   
   sex offenders for some of its events. I recently covered one of those   
   collaborations for The ReidOut Blog.   
      
   If your least-favorite conservative commentator isn’t on my abridged list   
   here, don’t fret: Head over to Media Matters for the complete roundup.   
      
   You may even want to print out a copy to keep in your wallet, so that the   
   next time a conservative begins to rail against groomers, you can tell them   
   to save their breath and look inward. Because you brought receipts.
