Andrew Paul Johnson was found guilty of five counts including molesting a child under 12 and another under 16

A man who took part in the 6 January 2021 attack on the US Capitol and later pardoned by Donald Trump was found guilty on Tuesday of multiple child sexual abuse charges in Florida, officials said.

Andrew Paul Johnson was arrested in Tennessee this August and extradited to Florida. He pleaded not guilty.

Johnson was found guilty of five counts this week, on charges such as molesting a child under 12 and another under 16, and lewd and lascivious exhibition, NPR first reported. A jury found him not guilty of one count of transmission of material harmful to a minor by electronic device or equipment.

    The belief in patriarchal hierarchy on the one hand, and the belief that women and children are less-than-human property that exist for the benefit of men on the other, may not be identical beliefs. But they sure go together easily, don’t they?

    What if the connection between reactionary MAGA politics and the sexual abuse of children is deeper than we want to admit?

    The name for this idea is pedocon theory.

    Pedocon theory suggests that this is not an aberration. Pedocon theory suggests that this was the inevitable result of the conservative project, because the conservative project is inherently pedophilic.
