In this episode, I walk through one of the darkest “mask off” moments we’ve seen so far: a MAGA caller publicly questioning why child rape is even wrong, and a mainstream conservative host bending over backwards to reframe Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse as “barely legal.” When you stack that next to decades of evangelical abuse cover-ups and policy moves to lower the age of consent and marriage, a pattern becomes impossible to ignore. This isn’t hypocrisy at the edges — it’s the core. And it’s time we admit that out loud.

Dr. Jim: [:
Dean Whithers: What is, are you asking me why it's wrong to rape children?
Based Maga Debater : Yeah, I need to, I need you to tell me why it is wrong in your eyes.
Dean Whithers: To rape
Based Maga Debater : chil to do that? Yes. Did you, do you need me to repeat it? Can you not hear me? Do you have too many cocks in your ears or what's up?
Why is it wrong? Is that too hard of a question?
You can mute me with the background noise if you want. I'm just,
Dean Whithers: it is happening. It's actually happening.
Based Maga Debater : That pearl clutching is so beta,
Dean Whithers: it's,
Based Maga Debater : why don't you actually answer the question?
e Trump's supporters are now [:
Dr. Jim: That was a caller into Dean Withers is live.
Who was asking the question? What's the big deal about child? You can fill in the blank there. And the fact that we are in a timeline where people are openly asking that question, who are Trump supporters, who are Republicans? Tells you everything that you need to know about where the Republican party is in terms of their core values and morals.
So much for the party of pro-life and the party of protected children, right?
But that's just some random caller, right? It doesn't represent the broader Republican party or Republican supporters does it? You sure about that? Check this out.
Megyn Kelley: Add for Epstein. I've said this before, which is a reminder. I do know somebody very close to this case. Who is in a position to know virtually everything, not everything, but virtually everything. And this person has told me from the start years and years ago that Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile.
the barely legal type. Like [:
But he liked the very young teen types that could pass for even younger than they were, but would look legal. Mm-hmm. To a passerby. And that is what I believed and that is what I reliably was told for many years.
t Trump did and excuses what [:
That's who this party is. Now we understand why this party never went after all of the church officials within their evangelical circles that were constantly, and abusing children as a part of belonging to their congregation. How often do we see these Christian pastors ending up in the news for some sort of abuse or another? It's an almost daily occurrence, isn't it?
And the irony of it is that these people in this party and this movement are the ones that are constantly pointing the finger at the immorality of everyone else. This is a classic case and a perfect example of projection.
There's a reason why this party is in lockstep with the white nationalist movement and the Christian nationalist movement because they have the same goals.
children are forced to give [:
Should we have any reason to wonder why this party consistently pushes for the lowering of the age of consent? Should we have any reason to wonder anymore why this party consistently opts to lower the age for marriage?
What we are finding out as more and more of these emails come out. Is that this party is loaded with predators who want to legalize their ability to prey on vulnerable children. That's who they are, and that's what their commentators are telling you. They want this normalized because that's part of their vision of the ideal future.
This should clear up any question about where the morality of this party sits. The fact of the matter is they have no morality at all and this should make it clear for everyone to see.
