No protection for pedophiles

To the editor:
Self disclosure: I am not a touchy feely guy. I subscribe to no man-controlled organized religion. In fact, I generally dislike people and prefer to spend time with my dog.
But I do have a soft spot for kids and animals and, as a dad and grandad, the immoral and evil abuse of children that has been not only allowed, but sponsored by the U.S. government is beyond shameful and criminal.
Biden effectively invited criminal cartels to kidnap third-world children and mass ship them across the border unaccompanied by adults.
More than 300,000 young innocents were lost or placed with unvetted “sponsors,” and so into slave labor, sex trafficking and who knows what other evil and sinister purposes.
Wealth and power perverts and supercharges the underlying evil in people and, as we see with Diddy and Epstein, abusing women and children seems to be how many manifest this inherent evil.
But when that evil not only goes unpunished but is facilitated and now overtly condoned by the U.S. government, it is not just individuals who have succumbed to evil, it is, by extension, the entire nation that tolerates and allows it.
I had high hopes that America could reach its aspiration of the moral compass and “shining city on the hill” for the world based on the promises of Trump.
Yet the swamp gas that infects every D.C. denizen and perverts the most well-meaning of people seems to have done its damage on this administration as all previous administrations.
It is clear that there is a global network of rich and powerful (terminally corrupted) individuals who prey on the innocent for self gratification and sport and will do “ANYTHING” including abuse and murder to protect that demonic club.
Epstein was an extortionist deep state “pimp” and to allow those perverts to continue their pursuits with impunity and immunity is no less evil than the child rape act itself.
If Trump does not stop protecting the billionaire, jet-set class of which he is part, his legacy will be trash.
If you are a parent, grandparent, aunt or uncle and you allow this travesty to stand you are no less guilty than the government that facilitated and is now protecting this perversion.
