TAPES: We Investigated a Suburban LGBTQ Pedophile Ring. Here’s What We Found.

. . .A months-long Townhall investigation reveals disturbing new details about the affluent LGBTQ-activist couple accused of sodomizing their young adopted sons—now ages 9 and 11—and distributing “homemade” child pornography of the sexual abuse. Half a year after the shocking story made national news, Townhall is the only outlet following up on the criminal case in Georgia that has since seen zero headlines written about it. We’ve found that it’s far, far worse than what was first reported.

Not only did the married men allegedly rape the two boys who were adopted through a Christian special-needs adoption agency, they were pimping out their children to nearby pedophiles in Atlanta-area suburbs, Townhall’s follow-up investigation discovered.

Recorded jailhouse calls, a trove of never-before-seen court documents, and testimony from a family member who spoke exclusively with Townhall uncover the extent of the physical and emotional trauma the two elementary school-aged brothers endured as well as the red flags that the state overlooked during the same-sex couple’s “faster than expected” adoption process. . .

An updated criminal affidavit says the child sexual abuse was filmed by William’s husband Zachary, “with whom he routinely engaged in sexually abusive acts” on the boy. Zachary, the household’s breadwinner, confessed to being the cameraman, and authorities allegedly found a folder on his cell phone—labeled “US”—that contained videos of William sexually abusing the child.

The indictment also charges the Zulock co-defendants with soliciting two other men, through the use of popular social media platforms, in the Greater Atlanta metropolitan region to “perform an act of prostitution” with their child that suffered physical injuries from being brutally raped. Townhall is the first to publicly identify these two alleged members of a pedophile ring in the heart of the Peach State: 27-year-old Hunter Clay Lawless and 25-year-old Luis Armando Vizcarro-Sanchez, both of Loganville. . .

Lawless, who snitched on the Zulocks, told local law enforcement he received “numerous” messages via Snapchat from Zachary about “f*cking [his] son tonight” and to “be prepared” to receive images as well as videos of the father raping his adopted child.

Massive Liberal Charities Steered Millions to Chinese Groups Tied to Its Government

Two of the largest liberal charities in the United States handed millions of dollars in grants to entities in China linked to the Chinese Communist Party, documents show.

The Bill and Melinda Gates and Ford foundations, two highly influential nonprofit groups influencing left-leaning causes, combined in 2021 to give over $39 million to China, according to their latest tax forms. Some of these funds were directed to Chinese universities and government agencies involved in military research to further the CCP’s global influence, filings reveal.

“If the last few years have taught us anything, it’s that we need to heavily scrutinize every American dollar that goes to CCP-affiliated entities,” Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI) told the Washington Free Beacon. . .

The bulk of the $39 million steered to China came from the Gates Foundation, which Microsoft founder Bill Gates launched in 2000 with his then-wife, Melinda Gates. The foundation sent roughly $30 million to Chinese entities, according to tax forms. (Read more from “Massive Liberal Charities Steered Millions to Chinese Groups Tied to Its Government” HERE)

Prince Andrew Reportedly Makes Big Move After Ghislaine Maxwell Casts Doubt on Sex Abuse Claims

Prince Andrew is reportedly assembling a $12 million war chest to launch a legal case against sexual abuse accuser Virginia Giuffre in a bid to force her to retract the allegations — and possibly apologize — in court.

In a civil lawsuit filed in 2020, Giuffre accused the Duke of York of raping and abusing her on three occasions in 2001 when she was just 17.

Though Prince Andrew has refuted any wrongdoing, he agreed to an out-of-court settlement paid to Giuffre in February 2022 amid pressure from Buckingham Palace that damaging headlines were distracting from Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee. . .

The Mirror reported that one of Prince Andrew’s top lawyers told him he can “forget it,” advising the Duke of York against going after Giuffre and that he should “just feel grateful that he is not in jail.” . . .

In her first post-conviction interview from behind bars set to air on TalkTV Monday, Ghislaine Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year sentence in a Florida federal prison for her role in a scheme to sexually exploit and abuse multiple minor girls with Jeffrey Epstein over the course of a decade, claimed that the infamous photo depicting Prince Andrew and Giuffre at her London home in 2001 is a “fake.” (Read more from “Prince Andrew Reportedly Makes Big Move After Ghislaine Maxwell Casts Doubt on Sex Abuse Claims” HERE)

DOD Awards New Seven-Figure Grant to Group That Funded Wuhan Lab Research

The Department of Defense (DOD) in December awarded a seven-figure grant to EcoHealth Alliance Inc., the nonprofit organization that funneled millions in taxpayer funds to the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) for dangerous bat virus research.

The DOD awarded a grant of $3 million to EcoHealth beginning Dec. 12 for the purpose of combatting pandemic threats emanating from the Philippines, according to USASpending.gov. The grant was awarded as part of a DOD program aimed at countering weapons of mass destruction.

Specifically, the grant is meant for “reducing the threat of viral spillover from wildlife in the Philippines.” EcoHealth has defended much of its work as being essential to detecting and preventing future pandemics that may begin in the wild, although it is unclear what real-world benefits that work has had up to this point.

Over the course of roughly a decade, EcoHealth Alliance funneled millions of dollars in U.S. government grants to the WIV as it conducted gain-of-function (GoF) research on bat-based coronaviruses. EcoHealth founder Peter Daszak was initially part of the World Health Organization (WHO) team investigating the origins of COVID-19 in China, which critics panned as a blatant conflict of interest.

Democrats Propose Overturning the First Amendment

Adam Schiff and a group of Democrats have introduced a proposed constitutional amendment to overturn the Citizens United decision, one of the greatest free-speech victories in history.

It’s just a political stunt, of course, as Schiff doesn’t have the votes. But it does reflect the authoritarian outlook of the contemporary left on free expression. From the day the decision came down, 13 years ago this week, Citizens United was a rallying cry for those threatened by unregulated discourse. President Barack Obama infamously, and inaccurately, rebuked the justices during his State of the Union for upholding the First Amendment. Since then, Democrats have regularly blamed the decision for the alleged corrosion of “democracy.”

Recall, however, that Citizens United decision revolved around the federal government’s banning of a documentary critical of 2008 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton before the Democratic primary elections. At the time, McCain-Feingold made it illegal for corporations (groups of freely associating citizens) and unions (ditto) to engage in “electioneering” a month before a primary or two months before a general election. It was outright censorship. In oral arguments, then-Solicitor General of the United States, now-Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan initially contended that the federal government had the right to censor books that “express advocacy.”

Also recall that “campaign finance” laws — speech codes, in reality — were written by politicians and defended by a media encumbered by any limitations on their own free expression. These detestable laws prohibited groups of citizens from assembling and pooling their resources to engage more effectively in what is the most important kind of political expression at the most vital time, right before an election.

‘Evil Spirits’: Pelosi Calls ‘Exorcists’ to Purge Own Home of Wickedness

Nancy Pelosi, who ran the people’s House, the U.S. House of Representatives, as speaker for multiple years before her party was removed from the majority in November, has sought spiritual help, apparently priests, for her California home “to exorcise … evil spirits,” according to a new report from the New York Post. . .

But she reported went outside her local parish for the help, as she remains in conflict with her chosen church, the Catholic church, over her denial of its teachings on life, and her repudiation of its pro-file stance. . .

The confirmation of the “exorcism” came from Pelosi’s daughter, Alexandra, who said in an interview with a New York Times writer that, “I think that weighed really heavy on her soul. I think she felt really guilty.”

She continued, “I think that really broke her. Over Thanksgiving, she had priests coming, trying to have an exorcism of the house and having prayer services.”

The local parish pastor, Father Arturo Albano of St. Vincent de Paul Church, said his staff was not involved. (Read more from “‘Evil Spirits’: Pelosi Calls ‘Exorcists’ to Purge Own Home of Wickedness” HERE)

Man Who Propped Feet on Pelosi’s Desk Found Guilty

The Arkansas man who propped his feet up on a desk in then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s office during the U.S. Capitol riot was convicted on all counts Monday.

A jury unanimously convicted Richard “Bigo” Barnett on all eight counts in his indictment including felony charges of civil disorder and obstruction of an official proceeding.

Barnett lounging at a desk in Pelosi’s office made him one of the most memorable figures from the riot on Jan. 6, 2021, the day when Congress convened a joint session to certify President Joe Biden’s electoral victory.

He is scheduled to be sentenced in May. Prosecutors sought to jail Barnett while he awaits sentencing but the judge denied that request so Barnett will remain free on certain conditions.

Barnett, 62, testified last Thursday he was looking for a bathroom inside the Capitol when he unwittingly entered Pelosi’s office and encountered two news photographers. He said one of the photographers told him to “act natural,” so he leaned back in a chair and flung his legs onto the desk. (Read more from “Man Who Propped Feet on Pelosi’s Desk Found Guilty” HERE)

Conservatives (Appropriately) Turn on Ben Shapiro With Brutal Reviews of ‘Woke’ Movie Flop

Actress Gina Carano’s first major role since being fired from Disney’s The Mandalorian … was Terror on the Prairie—the story of a frontier woman who must protect herself against a ruthless gang of outlaws hell-bent on revenge.

The film—which only grossed $13,115 during its limited theatrical run—is part of efforts by conservative pundit Ben Shapiro’s publication The Daily Wire to produce films for conservative audiences without what they view as covert liberal messaging. . .

The following review from Terror on the Prairie’s IMDb page is just one example of a conservative accusing the far-right darling of making a “woke movie.” . . .

Carano’s film has proven to be such a failure with conservative audiences it’s even been ranked poorly on a site run by conservatives who keep their eyes peeled for “wokeness” in movies.

Pamela Anderson Drops Bombshell Claim on Tim Allen — He Says It Never Happened

Former “Baywatch” babe Pamela Anderson claims in her new book that comedian Tim Allen flashed her on the set of his hit sitcom “Home Improvement” — when she was 23 years old — but Allen says it never happened.

According to a report from entertainment site Variety, Anderson described the incident in her upcoming tome “Love, Pamela” — claims that Allen opened his robe and exposed himself to her because she said he wanted to level the playing field after seeing her naked in Playboy magazine.

“On the first day of filming, I walked out of my dressing room, and Tim was in the hallway in his robe. He opened his robe and flashed me quickly — completely naked underneath. He said it was only fair, because he had seen me naked. Now we’re even. I laughed uncomfortably,” Anderson wrote.

Allen, who would have been 37 years old at the time, responded to Anderson’s claim in a statement to Variety: “No, it never happened. I would never do such a thing.”

Anderson played Lisa the Tool Girl on Allen’s show-within-a-show — “Tool Time” — from the pilot episode to the end of the second season, after which “Baywatch” took off and she left “Home Improvement.” She did return for a cameo — playing her original character — in the sitcom’s sixth season.

Cali. Shooting Suspect Met Ex at Studio He Shot Up: Report

The ex-wife of the suspected gunman who killed 10 people and injured another 10 in a horror shooting at a California dance studio has provided telling insight into her ex-husband’s life as rumors swirl over the possible motive for his actions.

The woman, who spoke to CNN and asked not to be named, said the pair met at the same dance studio he shot up late Saturday night. Huu Can Tran filed for a divorce from her in 2005, which became final a year later. . .

Before opening fire at the Star Ballroom Dance Studio in Monterey Park, Tran, a 72-year-old Chinese immigrant, was a regular, even providing “informal” lessons at the venue. It remains unclear if he had visited at all in recent years.

The pair met two decades ago at a dance where Tran introduced himself and offered to teach her for free. They married soon after. He wasn’t violent, she said, though he “was quick to anger.” (Read more from “Cali. Shooting Suspect Met Ex at Studio He Shot Up: Report” HERE)
