You heard about the most 2023 political story of 2023, right? If not, this is exactly what you were looking for when you started surfing the net today:

A Democratic candidate running for a seat in Virginia’s House of Delegates had sex with her husband in front of a live online audience and solicited “tips” for specific sex acts.

Susanna Gibson, a mother of two children, streamed herself having sex on Chaturbate, a website that streams live sex and free sex chats, according to the Washington Post. More than a dozen videos posted on the site under her username were archived in Sept. 2022, after she announced her candidacy to run in a highly competitive district in the Richmond area.

Gibson can reportedly be seen soliciting “tips” for performing certain acts requested by viewers, according to the Post. In at least two videos, she reportedly told viewers she is “raising money for a good cause.”

She also interrupted her sexual acts to type into a bedside computer and speak directly to the viewers to request “tips,” which are paid through icons called “tokens,” the Post reported. In two videos, she performed specific acts only in a “private room,” which costs extra.

There are so many different places we could go with this story.

But we’ll begin with the obvious: Susanna Gibson is the total personification of the Democrat Party in America right now.

She’s a nurse practitioner (wonder if she was dancing on TikTok during COVID?) and “public health expert” whose campaign website dredges up all the usual leftist shibboleths — Abortion on Demand! Gun Control! Climate Change Nuttery! Supremacy for the Alphabet People! — and there isn’t much evidence that she actually knows how anything works with respect to public policy.

But give Gibson some credit, because she doesn’t just hint at being a political whore for the degenerate elements of society; she goes all the way.

This column has noted that success as a Democrat in America is not about being smarter than the next guy, or being a better leader, or having more merit in any way. It’s about being willing to do what the others won’t. And by that standard, Susanna Gibson is a superstar in the making.

She proved that when the word got out about her novel fundraising tactics:

Gibson called the exposure of the videos “an illegal invasion of my privacy designed to humiliate me and my family,” the Post reported.

“It won’t intimidate me and it won’t silence me,” she said. “My political opponents and their Republican allies have proven they’re willing to commit a sex crime to attack me and my family because there’s no line they won’t cross to silence women when they speak up.”

Her attorney, Daniel P. Watkins, said the exposure of these videos by a Republican operative violates the state’s revenge porn law, which makes it a Class 1 misdemeanor to “maliciously” distribute sexual or nude images of another person with the intention to “coerce, harass, or intimidate,” according to the Post.

This is another hallmark of today’s Democrat Party, of course — a total refusal to assume responsibility for one’s actions.

She appeared on a public website and had sex — with her husband, thank God, but that’s beside the point — for money. Normies would call that a contribution to the degradation of our society and culture; Democrats would call it a sacrament.

And yet another hallmark: The outing of this public behavior is a violation of privacy, dontchaknow. Because public sex is private.

And also, the flavor-of-the-month hallmark: a threat of criminal prosecution and/or suppression to those who would distribute public information to voters in advance of an election.

Revenge porn is about publishing private sexual or nude images. Not public images sold for the purpose of onanism “for a good cause,” as she termed it. But neither Gibson nor her attorney bothered about that distinction.

You are not allowed to criticize Susanna Gibson for her and her husband’s sleazy sexualization of politics. You are only allowed to celebrate her as an innovator.

She must not be “slut-shamed” at all. Shame on you, in fact, for your sexually repressed bigotry in finding this undignified and disgusting.

BONUS: Since we’re face down in the gutter with this column, which is required to meet Democrats where they live, how would you like a little John Kennedy Porn Story Hour from the U.S. Senate on Tuesday?

The Senate had a hearing on whether gay porn in libraries ought to be constitutionally protected, and the senator decided to bring the conversation down to a level that everybody could understand:

Yes, you saw that. It wasn’t an AI deep fake. It was real.

What else was real was that the witnesses at the hearing, having had quotes from two of the pornographic books the cultural Marxists who now dominate the libraries across America are insisting on putting on display read to them, were thoroughly unmoved by the presentation.

Other than a wisecrack about how unnerving it is to hear the reading of them by Kennedy, an old straight man. Because of course it’s creepy when Kennedy reads those words aloud, in a way that would be much more palatable if, say, Susanna Gibson were to read them (and that’s almost certainly coming soon to her OnlyFans, the way things are going).

But the underlying theme here, which was no longer underlying at all when the second witness said the quiet part out loud, is that gay porn isn’t porn.

You may think it is. But you’re bigoted, and very wrong. Gay porn is magic, special porn. Gay porn educates and liberates. It’s an expression of being, and it’s a light that cannot be hidden under a bushel, or else that’s repression. And gay porn must not be suppressed as, for example, skepticism about anthropogenic global warming is suppressed; to do so is fascism.

What might tie these two stories together, other than the obvious notion that sexual degeneracy is the stock in trade of the Democrat Party, is Susanna Gibson winning that House of Delegates seat in Virginia. If she does win, one can make the argument that gay porn isn’t special at all — and, in fact, all porn is special, so none of it is, and we’re now officially Porn America, where straight porn and gay porn are both welcome to parade naked or in bondage gear right down Main Street.

At a time when the data is in, and it’s unmistakable that pornography is one of the most destructive things to an individual’s character that anyone could possibly ingest with their eyes.

A sane society would do everything it can to raise taboos against it. Democrats now run on it and demand that you surrender.

So, yeah — Susanna Gibson is the perfect poster child for that party.
