As Twitchy reported Wednesday, "prominent LGBTQ+ advocate Kendall Stephens" <a href="https://twitchy.com/brettt/2023/12/19/trans-activist-and-alleged-pedophile-campaigned-for-pennsylvanias-governor-n2390973" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">was arrested</a> in Philadelphia and charged with rápe, obscenity to minors, assault, corruption of minors, unlawful assault to minors, and involuntary deviant sexual intercourse. We'd not heard of Stephens, who identifies as a female, but he was prominent enough to campaign for and endorse Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro on behalf of the LGBTQ community.

This should have been a "local news story," but Newsweek picked it up and ran it under the most "Republicans pounce" headline we've seen in a while.

Is "MAGA uproar" a bad response to someone being arrested for raping two boys? If so, we're cool with it.

That seems to be what Newsweek is implying. Shouldn't Democrats also be outraged by this behavior?

"Her arrest comes amid a cultural clash between conservatives and the LGBTQ community." Yes, that's the story. More precisely, it comes amid a cultural clash between conservatives and pedophiles.

It must have been painful for them to write this. We're surprised they even covered it.

 {ai:summary}<p>Prominent LGBTQ+ advocate Kendall Stephens was arrested on charges of rape and assault against minors. Newsweek framed the story as "Republicans pounce" instead of focusing on the seriousness of the crimes. This sparked outrage among conservatives, who questioned why Democrats were not equally outraged. The coverage highlighted a cultural clash between conservatives and the LGBTQ community, particularly in relation to the issue of grooming. Overall, the media's handling of the story was seen as biased and dismissive of the importance of protecting children from sexual predators.  #society #crime</p>
