The Department of Homeland Security blasted Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) and the Minnesota Clemency Review Commission for granting a pardon to Tou Lue Vang, a man convicted of first-degree criminal sexual conduct of a 10-year-old girl in 2006. Minnesota’s Board of Pardons, on its Clemency Review Commission, includes Walz, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, and Justice Natalie Hudson. Vang was set to be deported to Laos, according to the DHS. However, his pardon was issued on June 10, 2026, a week before he was supposed to be deported. Now, the pardon could reportedly “thwart his removal from the United States.”
On Tuesday, California’s State Senate’s Elections Committee rejected a proposal (AB 2753) by vote of 2-1-2. The proposal would have banned registered sex offenders and human traffickers from running for public office in California. Specifically, Republican State Senator Steven Choi and Democrat San Diego State Senator Sabrina Cervantes backed the proposal, while Democrat San Francisco State Senator Scott Wiener voted against it. The remaining two Democrats abstained. The Committee is chaired by Wiener (D-CA) and requires a majority vote to approve proposals. The bill was introduced after a registered sex offender tried to run for Fresno City Council, California. At present, California law disqualifies candidates convicted of various felonies, such as bribery, extortion, perjury, embezzlement, and conspiracy to commit said felonies, but not sex offenses. The State Assembly had unanimously approved the measure before it was blocked by the Committee. “This is potentially a very dangerous road we’re going down to say that ‘minor crimes’ are going to ban you for life for running for office,” said Wiener in an interview with ABC10, justifying his position.
The Democratic nominee in Colorado's competitive Eighth Congressional District, Manny Rutinel, helped kill legislation that would have imposed mandatory prison sentences on pedophiles convicted of crimes such as having sex with child prostitutes and pimping minors.The 2024 bill would have slapped adults convicted of crimes involving child prostitutes with at least four years in prison for class-three felonies—like soliciting—and eight years for class-two felonies like coercing a minor into prostitution. But Rutinel joined his fellow Democrats on the house State, Civic, Military and Veterans Affairs Committee to kill it before it even made it to the full floor.
❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Texas Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico has come under fire after accepting large donations from billionaire connected to Jeffrey Epstein. 📺 DETAIL: Last week, it was revealed that James Talarico, Democrat candidate for the 2026 Senate election in Texas, took money from Reid Hoffman, a billionaire with connections to Jeffrey Epstein. Hoffman donated $11.5 million to Lone Star Rising, a super PAC supporting Talarico. He donated $10 million in June, approximately 80 percent of the PAC’s funds during the second quarter. Hoffman also made the maximum legal amount of $7,000 to Jon Ossoff, the Democrat Senator seeking re-election in Georgia. Hoffman is widely known as co-founder of LinkedIn, a networking and job search platform. Hoffman met Epstein in July 2013, almost five years after Epstein pleaded guilty to charges of soliciting and procuring a minor for prostitution. He also visited Epstein’s island in 2014. That same year, according to The Wall Street Journal, Hoffman sent ice cream to Epstein, writing that it was for him and “the girls.” The following year, Hoffman attended a dinner with Epstein with several other high-profile figures, including Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, and Peter Thiel. Hoffman has admitted that he “helped to repair [Epstein’s] reputation and perpetuate injustice.”
