A Republican South Carolina House member who prosecutors say used the screen name “joebidennnn69” has been arrested and charged with 10 counts of distributing sexual abuse material involving children.

RJ May was arrested Wednesday at his Lexington County home after a lengthy investigation and is scheduled to appear in federal court on Thursday.

An indictment says the three-term Republican used several online names including “joebidennnn69” to exchange files on the Kik social media network.

    What’s fucking crazy is that this has been going on for a year; they found files last summer. And he’s been a sitting rep this whole fucking time!

    Edit: honestly, he’s a huge piece of shit, besides the CSAM material, just unpleasant all the time. I know some folks at the State House and they hated him.

    Reminder: not a democrat, not a drag queen, not a trans athlete, not a black man, not an immigrant, just normal republican behavior.

    It’s always the ones you most expect. Also, LOL at the username. These people have Biden Derangement Syndrome much like they had Obama Derangement Syndrome much like they had Clinton Derangement Syndrome etc.

    I mean yeah, they caught a predator and everyone is busy making memes about it, but the real injustice is that they never go after the ones creating these materials, the ones really abusing these children, the Epstein predators. No, they (CIA/FBI/US Govt) hush that up. ‘Look over there!’

      The only reason you know the name Epstein is because they went after him
