Some of the biggest child sex abusers are in churches, they are usually groomers too. Though unlike regular groomers they just wait until the child's parents approve of making their kid a child bride to their abusive groomer. >

My wife was sexually abused at a young age. The hardest part for her was the reaction she received by family, friends,  and the authorities when she finally spoke out. This is a common occurrence for abuse victims, especially children. Anything we can legislate that lessens the trauma of this situation is worthwhile. The people who voted against this aren't human, in my opinion. >

Exactly the same here, my friend. When my spouse came out they were challenged by family and told there’s no point to tell the police. They were told they probably misremembered it or it was a joke, etc.

There was an article a few weeks ago that detailed her background. She was never overly religious.

So the groomers are grooming adults to allow child abuse. Yep, sounds Republican. >

Greene wrote, “Pass my Protect Children’s Innocence Act to stop communist groomers like this from using state government power to take children away from their parents to allow a for-profit medical industry to chop off these confused children’s genitals before they are even old enough to vote,” she said.

The bill was entitled "Respect for Child Survivors Act".
No GOP was ever voting for a bill that had the word respect in it... it's off-brand. >

And as most bills in government, there was a ton of funding and statutes built in with nothing to do with that title. If you read the article that’s clearly what they were voting against, but most people don’t read past a headline so they think “how could anyone vote against protecting child sex abuse survivors?” >

Anyone reading this should know this comment is not in good faith or accurate. This commenter posted a long comment above that clearly shows they haven't read the bill, don't understand transgender care for minors, and have an anti-trans agenda.
Don't believe them. If you're so inclined look into the bill yourself to see exactly how full of it this commenter is. >

Thanks for investigating. I was ready to casually scroll through and think "of course there's pork in a slam dunk bill". I appreciate people like you debunking bad faith actors at all opportunities, and I'll try to emulate you. >

This whole groomer thing conservatives are on about is like a fart in a car: whoever smelt it dealt it.
Just like their whole public bathrooms are places for gay trysts and we can't have effective social safety nets because people would abuse them crap >

They don't actually care about child abuse. They just use the term groomer as a label to put on people for being gay. Republicans are simply toxic. >

They're using it for trans people, specifically - it's just a rehash of gay panic propaganda from the 70's. >

These people are not in congress to help anyone. They are there to say NO and to gum up the works. We should stop expecting good government from people who's entire aim is to overthrow and undermine the government. >

This.  Even with the most generous interpretation - assuming they were against how the bill would act instead of the aim - there is no counter bill.  There is no "this is our plan to protect victims and deal with the problem".  It's always "this is a job for the private sector, so let's cut taxes on the rich and deregulate something." >

They have a vested interest in not stopping child abuse. It contributes to their reelection campaigns by giving them an issue to run on. >

This is correct.
The loudest mouths on the "Groomer" platform cannot deprive themselves of a talking point they can use to froth-up their base. >

I will tell you why: They just want to know what you do in the bedroom. They’re asking for a friend. The same projecting GOP that said pizzagate existed and at the same time brought you Matt Gaetz, Roy Moore, and alllll of the following:

Numerous Republican Congressmembers who have accused LGBTQ+ people of sexualizing children just voted against a bill that would help the actual victims of child sex abuse.
The bill, entitled Respect for Child Survivors Act, was developed with input from child welfare groups to address the mistreatment that child witnesses sometimes face during investigations of their own abuse.
It's notable that these politicians, who have spent the year making so much noise about LGBTQ+ people supposedly "Grooming" children, never speak as loudly against widespread child sex abuse in the Christian church, nor do they partner with organizations that actually oppose such abuse or child sex trafficking.

never speak as loudly against widespread child sex abuse in the Christian church

They had the chance today and we didn't hear a word from them:

A Christian Camp Director Abused Dozens of Kids. Now, a Victim Says the Camp Lied to Coerce Him Into an NDA. >

reminder that Matt Walsh, conservative talking head behind a lot of "anti-groomer" hate speech against the LGBT community is a conservative catholic who thinks the catholic church scandal was overblown and kids should not be taught what consent is/that its ok to turn down "hug" requests from strangers.
what you have to understand is that this isn't just hypocrisy; its a fundamental different view of reality. these people have been raised to believe that their religious institutions are a barrier, a dam, against an ocean of perversion, and the fact that so much perversion has occurred in their space is proof that there are some cracks in the dam, and the media is reporting on those instead of on the lake. they think for their institutions to have this sort of scandal, bigger and more common scandals have to be occurring with ten times the frequency and scale everywhere else and are desparate to find out where. >

Holy shit, what a brilliant take. >

It's like they don't actually believe any of the things they say. Crazy. >

The groomers and pedos in the GQP see this bill as a threat to themselves. >

They’re not concerned about grooming or they wouldn’t have taken the word and used it incorrectly to further a political agenda. Any person who genuinely cared about abuse victims wouldn’t further abuse them by reducing their experience to a buzz word. >

GOP Congressmembers who are ~~very concerned about~~ grooming vote against child sex abuse bill.

Theyll vote against everything unless it has something to do with hunters laptop >

Boomers calling others Groomers is comical. 
They are the generation who brought you the phrase "No means yes" and many others used to keep women in the kitchen. >

Well how can they exploit an issue if congress actually does something that might help fix it!! 
Same reason that nothing has been done against fixing immigration, mass shootings, etc. The GOP wants the government to ineffective, so they actively try breaking it and then crow about how government doesn't work >


The bill requires the FBI to form multi-disciplinary teams to investigate child sex abuse cases in a way that ensures accountability and transparency without re-traumatizing victims and their families. The teams would include “investigative personnel, mental health professionals, medical personnel, family advocacy workers, child advocacy workers, and prosecutors,”

I am a licensed social worker and can confirm that this is the standard in the states I worked in when working in this field. The fact they voted against it is mind boggling. >

Children, much like veterans, are simply useful props for the GOP to use while fund raising, but they have no actual plans to help either group >

Not to “both sides” this, but It’s exactly how the dems use women. They had decades to codify roe. They don’t care about raped children being forced to give birth, crippling poverty,  bleeding to death, becoming septic and dying painfully. They would rather line their pockets and manufacture more outrage. >

If democrats knew how to fight, they’d blast this on every news channel. >

Read another way, this headline also states that very neat and tidy members of congress have voted against Bill, who has been given a terrible nickname >

Because they don’t actually care about grooming. Most of them don’t even use that word right when they say it.
Also, in the past 5 years the only politicians being arrested for sexual crimes against a child have been GOP politicians and operatives. They may as well put in their platform that they are pro-pedophilia at this point. >

I found it interesting that Matt Gaetz voted in favor of the bill.  I guess he didn't want to, once again, draw attention to his grooming tendencies. >

Because they are the real groomers!! >

I hate when people post articles like this where there is no link to the actual bill. And they don't post it in the comments. It's useful firepower for people like my father who always say, "republicans vote down bills because democrats always try to squeeze some liberal agenda into it". >

Thanks. This one was relatively easy to find but typically when people post them they aren't. Appreciate it! >

Right but you need to know the name of the bill. Many times the article doesn't say the actual name. Thanks though. >

The names are in the article 99.9% of the time. >

Reminds me of Senator Cornyn and Cruz, both of Texas, voting down a bill to investigate

Why waste a perfectly molestable child on being groomed until it's an adult?

It’s because they know they made the whole grooming narrative up, and don’t really give a fuck about children, or anyone for that matter. >

Figures. If they vote to actually solve all of these issues then they'll have no fear to sell you into voting for them anymore. >

At this point, no one with a shred of sanity left should ever take these dick swabs seriously when they say anything whatsoever. Almost without exception, the sounds coming out of their pie holes are either a lie or a projection. The end, amen. >

As someone who spoke out at the age of 16 after being sexually abused for 7 years: I was forced to recount my sexual abuse, to a stranger, on camera, I was then told that there was no evidence and they dropped my case.

Every accusation is a confession. Actions speak louder than fascist gaslighting. >

There's always "that" one person or group who is against anything that is good for everyone because "they" didn't think of it. TFG fooled us in '16 and exposed the ugly underbelly of America. Thankfully, it only took 4 years to open our eyes to the grifter in chief and his cult members. We purged a lot of them in 2020 and we'll finish the job in '24. >

"Groomer" in Q-speak doesn't mean "someone who sexually abuses kids". 
It means "someone who is trans, or thinks trans people should have the right not to be used as target practice by people training for January 6th, 2025." 
Despite this, they know what normal people use by "groomer" and use that anger to legitimise their vitriol, while being entirely happy to partake in actual grooming. >

The ones who aren’t dumb as rocks aren’t actually concerned about grooming, it’s a dog whistle for anti-LGBTQ.
On the other hand, MTG (among others) is anti-LGBTQ and also dumb enough to believe the conspiracy theories. >

Doesn't this line of thinking mean that they would vote for a nominally anti-child sex abuse bill because it's a dogwhistle for anti-LGBT? >

Whoa whoa we want to help, but not that much... >

If the problem gets solved they can no longer politicize it. >

It would make it harder for them to get away with sexually abusing children too >

Everything about Republicans is a projection.  They constantly talk about groomers because their party is overrun with pedophiles. >

They're very concerned about their ability to continue grooming children without repercussions. Every accusation is an admission of guilt with Republicans. >

Ok for those that are to lazy to read the article. Basi ally the best source is biased acourse but points out the republican senators and side rants how they are anti lgbtq+ and use the word groomer yet voted against. The Bill had 170 Republicans and a majority of the democrats and it passed the house. It's moving forward. Pretty much know the idiots and they were the ones who voted against. I read the article hoping it described the bill and it glances off it as it would force the FBI to create a whole department for sexual assault cases and not just investigation elements but councilors and more not to retraumatize victims.
The bill is moving to senate. >

Does anyone else tire of these kind of "got ya, you hypocrites" articles?
They don't care. It's a game, and when they run the House, they'll donthe same thing and when the Dems vote no, the conservative media will run the same articles.
This shit doesn't advance ideas or conversations.  It just sells ads. >

170 Repulicans said yes. I noticed a lot of anti-Republican comments here and, while there are oh-so-many things to criticize them for, this bill here was bipartisan (Lindsey Graham - another person worthy of scruitiny - being one of the proponents). The vast majority of Republicans said yes. I wish it was all of them, but still…
28 Republicans said no. The article didn‘t get into the why. Don‘t care, honestly, because this is the kind of bill you simply agree to; the extra-cost of protecting abused children better from re-traumatization is absolutely a must.
So yeah, anti-Republican rhetoric seems inappropriate in this particular case. >

The reason for the Anti-Republican sentiment is because of the 28 No votes, not the large majority of Yes votes. >

Was this a single issue bill or was there extra stuff? >

Thanks, can't believe anyone would vote against that. All bills should be as well done as that one. >

Achtually they're called minor attracted peopl-- 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓 >

Looks likes a dude.  Sorry >

So they are going after the Catholic Church? >

That’s because they are hypocrites and con artists, unwilling nor able or even interested in actually governing. Rather, they blow dog whistles and gaslight to stay in office, propping up cash cows for their donors and hacking out laws that benefit only themselves and their friends while they systematically, deliberately and without shame nor irony, seek to dismantle the protections and services their constituents rely on to survive. They are made for each other, self-serving, selfish and manipulative, these asshats and those who keep them in office, are a threat to intelligence, common sense and decency. >

No big surprise I'm sure there's something in there that makes them responsible when they pay for trafficked underage sex workers. >

Looked through the text of the bill and I don’t quite understand it’s purpose. I’ve gathered that its pretty much just about requiring “multidisciplinary teams” to be used in child abuse investigations. 
“(1) IN GENERAL.—Each multidisciplinary team shall be composed of the following:
“(A) Appropriate investigative personnel.
“(B) Appropriate mental health professionals.
“(C) Appropriate medical personnel.
“(D) Victim advocates or victim specialists.
“(E) Relevant children’s advocacy center personnel, with respect to covered investigations in which the children’s advocacy center or personnel of the children’s advocacy center were used in the course of the covered investigation.
“(F) Prosecutors, as appropriate.”
What does this affect in how investigations are handled? Makes them more effective? I just don’t know what about this would make someone vote for/against it >

My former partner was a trauma specialist who worked with sexually abused kids here in Australia, so I can speak with a little authority here;
Multidisciplinary teams make for much better processes and approaches. In any sexual assault case there are going to be multiple overlapping services and it's REALLY easy (and used to be nearly universal) that one group had no idea what the other group were doing.
This would lead to more trauma as the kid's needs go unmet and they begin to hate the disjointed, irrational mess of systems that they're forced to deal with. Makes them feel like nobody is listening or helping, even when there's multiple services around them.
Making care teams multidisciplinary is a simple, sensible approach to preventing glaring cracks in a person's care. You should not have the counselor having to do their own investigation, or the lawyer trying to do therapy. If you silo them off from each other, that's essentially what happens (or worse, none of it happens as nobody realises when things are getting missed).
As to why anyone would oppose it... Pffffbt. Same reason they oppose providing care in the first place. Social pathology? The sociopathy of hyperindividualism? >

Because if it passed, they'd all be convicted sex offenders. >

GOP congressmembers who condones child rape are very concerned indeed. >

Because she’s not really worried about grooming, no politician is, it’s just a very easy way to virtue signal to morons. >

Surprise!!!
Wait...
Actually not surprised at all. Every last thing they put out is a projection of precisely what they themselves are doing. >

That’s because everything is projection with these fascists. >

I find it very disturbing that ANYONE is against protecting children from abuses. >

That's cause they are the groomers.
It would be nice to hear their honest opinions on rapists, I imagine it's quite rosy. Nostalgic even. >

They don’t actually care about the issue, it’s something the throw around to demonize others. That was the issue obvious when they would ignore Trumps connection to Epstein or open associate with Gaetz and Jordan. >
