Exposing the Corruption of the "Family Values" Party
Rickey Williams is an insurrectionist. His daughter is Riley Williams, the woman who stole Rep. Pelosi’s laptop. He was caught in an internet sting. He thought he was communicating with a fourteen-year-old girl, but actually was communicating with a police officer. He wanted his victim to create sexual abuse material and instructed her in what to do.
Eric Lipman was General Counsel for the Florida Elections Commission. He was arrested for eleven counts of possessing child pornography, more accurately called child sexual abuse material. Before working for the Elections Commission, he worked for the Florida Department of Children and Families in Leon, Wakulla and Franklin counties. Alarmingly, he was also an officer of the Capital Soccer Association, a soccer league for children ages 4 to 17. He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 72 months.
Dominic Foppoli was the mayor of Windsor, California. He was accused of sexual assault by four women, then a fifth, then more than a dozen. The San Francisco Chronicle has a page devoted to the scandal. He was defiant for a time but finally bowed to pressure and has resigned.
James Clendenin was a Republican member of the Wichita City Council when he conspired with Michael O’Donnell and Michael Capps to defame Brandon Whipple in order to keep him from winning the Wichita Mayor’s race. They failed which James Clendenin has proffered as a defense in his trial, suggesting that Whipple wasn’t defamed enough to lose. Yes, Clendenin is that craven.
His entire history is full of scandal from “borrowing” a school bus and drinking while taking young people to a game and giving alcohol to minors to more serious allegations of bank fraud and wire fraud. He is on the list, though, for creating and spreading false allegations as they contribute to the rape culture lie that women frequently make false claims.
Scott Miller was the chair of the Salt Lake County Republicans. When several women reported harassment and abuse by Dave Robinson, he ignored them. When the story became public, he sent an official email calling out the women for their “salacious accusations.” In the email, he wrote, “Are these persons and possibly their special interest backers attempting to embarrass and cancel me and our volunteers?” Miller wrote. “Are most of the accusers sore losers who failed to win their respective races? Is this an attempt to disrupt my efforts to become the Utah GOP Chairman?”
Dave Robinson was Salt Lake County Republican Committee’s unofficial communications manager. He was also abusive and bullying, particularly toward women. Women raised their concerns with the GOP County Chairman Scott Miller who did nothing to stop the harassment. Instead he sent an email on the county GOP’s email defaming the women.
Bruce Bickford was a state representative in Maine, representing Auburn. He left office in December 2022. He seemed to think rape was a joking matter, logging into a House committee meeting with a Zoom background that said “Harvey Weinstein Charm School Rehab Center.” He was investigated whether or not doing so was sexual harassment.
Tom Reed was a Congressman from New York. A woman accused him of sexual misconduct after he accosted her at a dinner in downtown Minneapolis. The woman was a lobbyist and was attending a fundraising event for a GOP candidate. She alleged that he rubbed her back, unsnapped her bra and stroked her thigh. A witness corroborated her allegations.
