Democrats appear to believe that they are the party that protects children, but BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales knows that couldn’t be further from the truth.
“It seems to be that the Democrats are the ones who always seem to associate with the pedophiles. They are the actual party of pedophile protectors. And honestly it seems like it’s really just Democrats who want to force you to live around pedophiles,” she says.
And she has the receipts to back it up.
“Minnesota Governor Tim Walz actually pardoned an illegal alien who was convicted of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl to save him from being deported. I am not making this up,” she explains.
“‘Cause why would you deport an illegal sex offender when you could just keep them here, right?” she asks.
The 42-year-old illegal immigrant, Tue Lue Vang, was convicted of repeatedly raping a child over multiple years. But that didn’t stop the Minnesota Clemency Review Commission from voting 4-2 to grant the predator a pardon.
Vang also once offered the child $10 to keep quiet about the abuse.
“And you know what? His justification is actually quite simple. He said, ‘Oh, well, sexual conduct with minors is the norm in Laos,’” Gonzales explains.
“Sorry bud, not in America,” she continues, before correcting herself. “Well, I guess in Minnesota under Tim Walz.”

Republicans Launch Bills To Stop Child Predators And Foreigners From Buying Children
A new pair of bills seeks to close the loopholes that enable the surrogacy industry and its abuse of both children and immigration laws.Democratic Virginia AG to take over case against trans-identifying sex offender accused of exposing himself at school
Jay Jones, the radical Democratic attorney general of Virginia, will take over the case against a registered, repeat sex offender accused of exposing himself to girls and women in a school locker room.
Richard Kenneth Cox, 59, was initially registered as a sex offender in 1998 after he was convicted of taking indecent liberties with a child. The Tier III sex offender was convicted of possessing obscene material with a minor in 2007. Cox was also convicted for failing to register as a sex offender, once in 2007 and again in 2021.
'The statute is therefore void for vagueness.'
Cox admitted in a letter written to a judge in 1992 that he had “sexual problems.” A few years later, in a separate letter, he stated that he was aware that he experienced “compulsions to expose myself in public places,” WJLA previously reported.
He is facing over 20 charges related to allegations that he exposed his naked body in a female locker room at a Washington-Liberty High School pool on Oct. 21, 2024. The charges include indecent exposure, sex offender on school or day-care property, and sex offender loitering near school/day care/park/playground.
Outside of regular school hours, the Washington-Liberty High School pool is open to the public.
Cox, who goes by the name Riki Cox, has claimed to identify as a female. The school district's policy allows individuals to use the locker room that they believe aligns with their so-called gender identity.
“My civil rights as a transgender person allow me to use a public facility, including restrooms and changing rooms that identify as my gender,” Cox told law enforcement authorities in Nov. 2024.
On March 12, Arlington County Circuit Court Judge Daniel Lopez granted Cox’s request to dismiss his case. The judge agreed with Cox’s claim that the Virginia law under which he was charged is vague under the 14th Amendment.
The judge was referring to Virginia Code § 18.2-370.2(B), which states, “Every adult who is convicted of an offense prohibiting proximity to children when the offense occurred on or after July 1, 2000, shall as part of his sentence be forever prohibited from loitering within 100 feet of the premises of any place he knows or has reason to know is a primary, secondary or high school.”
Lopez concluded that “loitering” was not clearly defined and that the statute lacks standards to guide enforcement.
“The statute is therefore void for vagueness,” Lopez wrote.

Arlington Commonwealth’s Attorney Parisa Dehghani-Tafti’s office appealed the judge’s decision, and the Court of Appeals accepted the case. Now, AG Jones, who previously fantasized about the death of a Republican and his children, will represent the commonwealth in the case.
Separately, Cox was convicted in February for possessing child pornography, which police said they found on his phone and on a memory device when he was arrested in Dec. 2024 for charges related to the exposure case.

VIDEO: 'Heroic' teen girl fights off sex predator just after he used twisted ruse in assault of 66-year-old woman, police say
A Michigan man was caught on video attacking and attempting to kidnap a 14-year-old girl last month, and the Kentwood Police Department said in a statement that it wasn't the only assault he allegedly committed that day.
"A 66-year-old female reported that while working in her yard between 5 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. on May 12, 2026, a male suspect stopped his vehicle, engaged her in conversation, made unwanted advances, and physically assaulted her," police said.
'I think he chose me because he saw me as a woman alone.'
Mary Raab, the first alleged victim, told WOOD-TV she was planting flowers by her mailbox when a man approached and told her that he was struggling because his brother had died.
"He got out and said, 'I have had this very traumatic incident happen to me, my brother passed away, and I am in deep grief, and I do not know how to deal with it,'" Raab said.
Raab added, "I am thinking, 'Well, this is very weird.'"
Raab said the man then asked her if he could use her restroom and wash his hands. Raab said she declined and directed him to a local gas station.
"I went to shake his hand, and then he put his arms around me and went to kiss me on the mouth, and I turned my head away, and he planted his lips between my jawbone and my neck," Raab said.
She continued, "He made it kind of difficult to break out of his embrace."
Raab added, "It is violating somebody’s space; why do you think you have the right to do that?"
"I think he chose me because he saw me as a woman alone. He was definitely testing me to see how vulnerable I was, and luckily I was calm enough and level-headed enough to make him go away without having anything devastating and dramatic happen," Raab said.
At around 6:40 p.m., police officers responded to a report of an attempted kidnapping.
Video appears to show a dark-colored SUV pulling up alongside a teen before a man jumps out of the vehicle, runs toward her, and assaults her.
"A 14-year-old female reported that the suspect stopped his vehicle, approached her, physically assaulted her, and attempted to restrain her while she was walking on the sidewalk," the statement read.
Police said the victim was able to fight off the suspect, who fled the crime scene in his vehicle.
Court records obtained by WWMT-TV noted that the girl told investigators the suspect grabbed her and told her, "I got you," before she fought him off.
Police described the teen's acts as "heroic."
"That victim absolutely saved her own life that day; she did amazing things and fought hard and made that suspect jump back in the car and take off," Kentwood Police Department Captain Tim Wierenga told WOOD.
Investigators interviewed witnesses, utilized license plate information, and obtained surveillance video from a resident. Detectives determined that the same suspect committed the assault and attempted kidnapping.
Police identified the suspect as 29-year-old John Moore and arrested him within 24 hours of the alleged crimes.
Records from the Kent County Correctional Facility show that Moore was arrested and booked on May 13. Moore is being held on $140,000 bail.
Moore was charged with unlawful imprisonment and assault and battery.
Citing records from the Kent County Sheriff’s Office, the New York Post reported that Moore also was hit with two probation violations.
"Obviously age didn’t matter to him; he was just looking for a victim," Raab said. "But I am glad that I kept my head. I am glad I didn’t let him into my house."
WOOD reported that Moore had been previously arrested for being a "bathroom peeper who recorded an upskirt video" at a grocery store in September 2023.
WOOD at the time reported that a woman was in a restroom stall of the store when she noticed Moore "peering down at her from the next stall over."
Surveillance cameras also caught Moore recording an upskirt video in the store’s common area and "crouching down behind the victim" to position his cell phone to record up the shopper's dress, according to WOOD.
In 2025, Moore allegedly sexually assaulted women at a different grocery store.
Kent County Prosecutor Chris Becker told WOOD that Moore walked around the store telling female customers they had spiders on their backs and then grabbed their buttocks.
Three women reported that Moore assaulted them, Becker said.
Moore was sentenced to time served; he had already spent six months in jail. Moore also was given three years of probation and ordered to register as a sex offender.
Moore's public defender at a hearing called him "kind" and "gentle," WOOD reported.
"He's kind, and he’s gentle, and he’s patient," attorney Laura Joyce said of Moore. "And I don’t think these crimes are reflective of the person that he is."
"I think that he’s had a reckoning while he’s been in jail regarding some potential substance abuse issues that he has to handle," Joyce added.
Those who witnessed suspicious activity related to the case or the suspect are urged to contact the Kentwood Police Department at 616-656-6580 or send an anonymous tip through Silent Observer at 616-774-2345.
The Kentwood Police Department did not immediately respond to Blaze News' request for comment.

Bill Gates' world continues to unravel with Epstein probe, foundation layoffs
The Epstein files may have largely disappeared from the 24-hour news cycle on this side of the Atlantic, but the damning revelations they contain nevertheless continue to haunt former associates of the dead pedophile, especially Microsoft co-founder and vaccine champion Bill Gates.
While maintaining that he "did nothing illicit," Gates reportedly apologized to staff of the Gates Foundation at a town hall in February, acknowledging the negative impact that his ties — developed after Epstein's conviction in 2008 for soliciting sex from minor girls — have had on the organization and stressing that it was a "huge mistake to spend time with Epstein."
"Our work is very reputational sensitive," said the billionaire. "I mean, people can choose to work with us or not work with us."
'He is looking forward to answering all the committee’s questions.'
It appears the scandal-stunted organization has itself chosen to work with fewer people.
According to an internal email reviewed by the Wall Street Journal, the Gates Foundation is poised to cut about 500 jobs, or about 20% of its staff, by 2030. The foundation reportedly plans to reduce its current headcount of 2,375 by 200 by the end of next year.
"This is a challenging time for our organization in many ways, but it also highlights the critical importance of taking the tough actions now," Gates Foundation CEO Mark Suzman reportedly said in the letter.
RELATED: Epstein kept a detailed Google Calendar — and you can read all of his appointments
The foundation teased these layoffs earlier this year in a release detailing how the organization was planning to cap annual operating expenditures at $1.25 billion, roughly 14% of the foundation's total budget.
In addition to slimming down, the Gates Foundation — which is set to shutter in December 2045 — is presently undergoing a desperate PR rehab.
The organization announced on Tuesday that it has "commissioned an external review to assess past foundation engagement with Epstein, and our current policies for vetting and developing new philanthropic partnerships."
The foundation noted further that this review is underway and an update is expected this summer.
In addition to facing scrutiny from investigators tasked by his own organization, Gates is scheduled to appear before the House Oversight Committee for a transcribed interview on June 10.
Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) noted in a March 3 letter to Gates that the committee is reviewing:
the alleged mismanagement of the federal government’s investigation into Mr. Jeffrey Epstein and Ms. Ghislaine Maxwell, (ii) the circumstances and subsequent investigations of Mr. Epstein's death, (iii) the operation of sex-trafficking rings and ways for the federal government to effectively combat them, (iv) ways in which Mr. Epstein and Ms. Maxwell sought to curry favor and exercise influence to protect their illegal activities, and (v) potential violations of ethics rules related to elected officials.
Comer said that the committee suspects Gates has information that will help with this investigation.
A spokesman for Gates told Politico, "While he never witnessed or participated in any of Epstein’s illegal conduct, he is looking forward to answering all the committee’s questions to support their important work."

'The mistake I made': Bill Gates reportedly admits to affairs with Russians, apologizes for Epstein fallout
The Epstein files released by the Department of Justice last month painted Microsoft co-founder and vaccine champion Bill Gates in a particularly unfavorable light.
Amid uproar over her ex-husband's repeat mention in the files — including in a 2013 email wherein Jeffrey Epstein alleged that he procured for Bill Gates "drugs, in order to deal with consequences of sex with Russian girls" — Melinda French Gates told NPR's "Wild Card" podcast, "It's personally hard whenever those details come up, right? Because it brings back memories of some very, very painful times in my marriage."
'Knowing what I know now makes it, you know, a hundred times worse.'
While French Gates indicated that she has "been able to move on in life," her ex-husband is alternatively still dealing with the consequences of his long-standing association with the notorious child sex offender.
Gates reportedly apologized to the staff of the Gates Foundation for the fallout of his Epstein ties during a town hall on Tuesday, stating, "It was a huge mistake to spend time with Epstein," according to a recording reviewed by the Wall Street Journal.
Gates, who has not been accused of wrongdoing by any of Epstein's victims and whose spokesperson characterized the claims in the 2013 email as "completely false," reportedly stressed, "I did nothing illicit. I saw nothing illicit."
The billionaire reportedly had an explanation for the photographs in the files featuring him in the company of women whose faces are redacted. Epstein asked to take pictures of his assistants with Gates after meetings, Gates claimed, according to the Journal.

"To be clear, I never spent any time with the victims, the women around him," said Gates, according to the Journal. He noted, however, that he "did have affairs, one with a Russian bridge player who met me at bridge events, and one with a Russian nuclear physicist who I met through business activities."
Gates reportedly suggested further that despite his ex-wife expressing concerns about Epstein in 2013 — five years after he pleaded guilty to solicitation of a minor for prostitution — Gates continued meeting with Epstein.
"Knowing what I know now makes it, you know, a hundred times worse in terms of not only his crimes in the past, but now it’s clear there was ongoing bad behavior," Gates reportedly told staff.
Gates, apparently recognizing that his relationship with Epstein helped boost Epstein's reputation, reportedly apologized "to other people who are drawn into this because of the mistake I made."
Gates also recognized the negative impact his Epstein ties have had on the organization previously known as the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which became the Gates Foundation last year following the couple's divorce and previous revelations about Bill's ties to Epstein.
"It definitely is the opposite of the values of the Foundation and the goals of the Foundation," said Gates, who has directly and through his foundation worked to shape public health, the news landscape, education policy, AI, American farmland, the energy sector, foreign policy, and the Earth itself.
"And our work is very reputational sensitive," continued the billionaire. "I mean, people can choose to work with us or not work with us."
When asked about the recording and Gates' remarks, the Gates Foundation told Blaze News in a statement, "This was a scheduled townhall with employees, which Bill does twice a year. In the conversation, Bill answered questions submitted by foundation staff on a range of issues, including the release of the Epstein files, the foundation's work in AI, and the future of global health."
The foundation added, "In the townhall, Bill spoke candidly, addressing several questions in detail, and took responsibility for his actions."
"The harm Epstein inflicted on women and girls was horrific, and no one should ever have to experience what they did," the foundation said in a statement earlier this month. "The foundation regrets having any employees interact with Epstein in any way."
