NextImg:Media, Dems Breathlessly Defend Ship Named After Pederast

The Democrats and the corporate media came out guns blazing with a temper tantrum about how a U.S. Navy vessel may no longer be named after gay pedophile Harvey Milk.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth reportedly told the Office of the Secretary of the Navy to make plans for renaming the ship USNS Harvey Milk, according to Military.com, to come into “alignment with president and SECDEF objectives and SECNAV priorities of reestablishing the warrior culture.”

The left considers Milk a “gay rights icon” for being the first openly homosexual elected official in California. Milk was serving on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors when he was murdered in 1978.

Milk, however, was a predator of young boys, as The Federalist reported. Milk’s biographer wrote that the then-33-year-old pursued a 16-year-old boy who was apparently in a vulnerable place and “looking for some kind of father figure.”

The pedophile, who was dishonorably discharged from the Navy after being questioned about his sexual activities in 1955, would also use alcohol and drugs to subdue underage boys and young men and manipulate them into perverse sexual activity.

He also had an affinity for infamous cult leader Jim Jones, a fellow sexual predator and architect of the mass murder-suicide of his followers in Jonestown, Guyana. Jones funded Milk’s political career, and Milk praised Jones’s cult, telling him, “Rev. Jim, it may take me many a day to come back down from the high that I reach today. I found something dear today. … I found a sense of being that makes up for all the hours and energy placed in a fight. I found what you wanted me to find. I shall be back. For I can never leave.”

In the wake of the murder-suicide claiming the lives of more than 900 people, Milk flippantly called it “a great experiment that didn’t work. I don’t know, maybe it did.”

Milk was not exactly the person anyone would have expected to be honored with being the namesake of a U.S. Navy vessel — an idea first floated by the Obama administration. But at the news of the potential renaming, Democrats and their bootlickers in the corporate media immediately fell into a frenzy.

Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said the renaming is a “surrender of a fundamental American value: to honor the legacy of those who worked to build a better country” and that it was “a shameful, vindictive erasure of those who fought to break down barriers for all to chase the American Dream.”

Apparently for Pelosi, being a pedophile is part of building a “better country” and the “American Dream.”

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., added to the hyperventilating, saying, “Erasing Harvey Milk’s name is disgusting, blatant discrimination — and during Pride Month to boot. He served the U.S. Navy and his country honorably, and he was assassinated while serving the public and fighting for LGBTQ+ rights.”

Unsurprisingly, neither Democrat mentioned Milk’s pedophilia or his predatory activities. And apparently every corporate news outlet screeching about removing his name miraculously forgot to mention those details as well.

Perhaps the most egregious headline came from USA Today, where the story — titled “Who was Harvey Milk? Navy vessel may be stripped of gay rights leader’s name” — feigned to inform about Milk and the Navy vessel.

There was zero mention of his pedophilia.

To NPR, Milk was a “gay rights leader,” and to the AP, he was a “gay rights activist” whose name was chosen as one of several “leaders who fought for civil and human rights” and had their names features on the John Lewis class of ships.

CNN even cited a Milk biography (just not the pedophilia part), and called Milk a “gay rights icon,” and argued that Milk was behind some kind of “heroic” forced outing of Oliver Sipple, who is said to have helped thwart the assassination of President Gerald Ford.

The Washington Post also called him a “gay rights icon” who “fiercely championed gay rights.”

The New York Times was left in shock about how the decision was being made during “pride month,” which, the rag writes, “celebrates the contributions of luminaries in the L.G.B.T.Q. community.” The outlet called Milk “one of several trailblazers” whose names are on the John Lewis class of ships.

In 2016, the Navy announced that all John Lewis-class vessels would be named after “civil rights leaders,” according to U.S. Naval Institute News. Milk’s name was chosen alongside far-left former Chief Justice Earl Warren, former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, suffragette Lucy Stone, abolitionists Sojourner Truth and Harriet Tubman, and former Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

The USNS Harvey Milk was christened in 2021 by Paula M. Neira, a Navy veteran claiming to be “transgender,” who became the first person to change his discharge documentation to indicate inaccurate pronouns.

According to Military.com, other John Lewis-class vessels are also undergoing a review for potential renaming.
