If you pay really close attention, you might notice a difference between the way the Left reacts to rape allegations against Republicans versus how they react to rape allegations against Democrats.
When Tara Reid accused President Joe Biden of sexual assault, the Democrats attacked her. When Ashley Biden's journal said Joe Biden showered with her when she was a child, and the Democrats didn't utter a peep.. When Lyndsey Fifield said Graham Platner was physically abusive during their relationship, Democrats dismissed the claims as a partisan attack meant to derail Platner's Senate ambitions.
Meanwhile, Christine Blasey Ford said Brett Kavanaugh assaulted her, even though the two were never in the same place and all the people Ford said would corroborate her story were unable to. E. Jean Carroll claims President Trump raped her in the middle of the afternoon in a New York department store. And the Left insists that President Trump knowing Jeffrey Epstein, — who knew lots of high-profile people, including Bill Clinton — is proof that the President is a 'pedophile.'
They don't need evidence for these claims. They just say these things and hope the narrative takes hold before the truth gets out there. Such rhetoric has consequences, however. Cole Allen, who tried to assassinate President Trump and other high-ranking Cabinet officials at this year's White House Correspondents Dinner, said in his manifesto that he couldn't tolerate having a 'pedophile' for a president.
The difference, of course, is that there's evidence to back up the claims levied against Democrats. Fifield provided The New York Times with names of friends to contact and other information documenting her tumultuous relationship with Platner, as did Jenny Racicot, who said Platner raped her several years ago when they were dating. That The New York Times chose to ignore that corroborating evidence does not erase its existence.
Meanwhile, as I mentioned, there's no evidence to support the claims levied against Republicans.
That didn't stop Hasan Piker, the Democrats' spokesman and social media darling, from begging for a defamation suit. Piker, undoubtedly outraged that Platner was ousted from the Maine Senate race, went on an expletive-filled rant about Fox News and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, who worked for the network prior to joining the Trump administration.

Hasan Piker: “Fox News is Rape TV. It’s the pro-rape network. One of their rapists hosts is now the f***ing Secretary of War. Pete Hegseth also has a Nazi tattoo on his motherf***ing chest. He was such a prolific rapist that his own mother sent him an email begging him to stop… pic.twitter.com/fq8Or0Gakq

Absolutely none of that is true. But he should be sued for defamation. You cannot call people rapists because they hurt your feelings or you don't like their politics.
Time to sue https://t.co/OZBts6f3Fw

That's on top of Piker dismissing Hamas' use of sexual violence and rape against Israeli women. Here's what Piker said about it, as I reported back in March:
He also excused the systematic rape of Israeli women during the October 7, 2023 terrorist attacks (emphasis added). "It doesn't matter if f***ing rapes happened on October 7," Piker said on his show. "That doesn't change the dynamic for me even this much. So that's the other part of this problem that many people can't contend with. Like, the Palestinian resistance is not perfect. They're not, like, so good, they have magical bullets." He also said StopAntisemitism, a social media account devoted to exposing antisemitism, was having "rape fantasies" and "rape hallucinations" about October 7. Of course, Hamas documented the rapes of multiple Israeli women. There is video footage, and Hasan Piker is okay with that.
If Hegseth's Jerusalem Cross tattoo is a 'Nazi symbol,' then Piker is also saying the funeral for former President Jimmy Carter contained Nazi imagery, too, as the Jerusalem Cross was printed on the funeral program.
The St George Cross that Hegseth wears is a Christian symbol and was even a part of President Jimmy Carter’s funeral.

Was Carter a “Nazi”? pic.twitter.com/t5YUSczzhl
Piker would probably say 'yes,' which is laughable. Carter was many things, including a failed president, but he was not a Nazi.
Just this past week, Francesca Hong, who wants to be my next governor, joined Hasan's podcast and raised $54,000 (some reports say she raised more). He's appeared with Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan and endorsed Graham Platner, too.

We spent the Fourth of July weekend being hounded by the media over the appearance of 'Patriot Front.' We had dozens of breathless stories about the supposed white supremacy group who showed up in D.C., waved some flags, and rode public transportation. Those monsters.
Despite Patriot Front doing absolutely nothing, Republicans were ordered to condemn them, because reasons.
But not a single Democrat will be asked to condemn Piker. Francesca Hong and Abdul El-Sayed won't be asked to return the campaign donations they received from campaigning with Piker. The media won't even cover this story unless it's with a pillow to smother it.
The only solution is to sue Piker into oblivion for defamation, and I hope Hegseth or Fox News do.
