Republican officials, elected or otherwise, and notable Right Wing advocates accused, indicted, and convicted of sexual corruption and/or deviancy. Note that this list remains under construction as more cases come to my attention. The list currently stands at 200. (Last updated 2/4/2025.)

General

 

Data from the 2015 leak from Ashley Madison, a website that connects married people looking to have an affair, revealed that Democrats were the least likely to use the site (1 in 223), Libertarians the most (1 in 98), with Republicans being a close second. “Our results are perhaps the strongest evidence yet that people with more sexually conservative values, although they claim to act accordingly, are more sexually deviant in practice than their more sexually liberal peers,” the study says. Many other studies point to greater incidents of philandering, sexual deviance, and so forth in Red states.

 

In January 2025, the Washington Post reported that Cassidy Hutchinson, a top aide to Trump White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows was not subpoenaed to testify in 2024 before the GOP-led probe into the bipartisan committee that investigated the January 6 insurrection. The reason was that her testimony might include the fact that a large number of Republican House members had sexted her, trying to engage in sexual favors.

 

​

A

Despite voting over 90 percent of the time with the Christian Coalition, Allen was charged in 2007 with solicitation of a male police officer in a park restroom. He was found guilty and sentenced to six months' probation and fined.

Randal David Ankeney—Republican activist and rising Colorado Republican star. Pleaded guilty to attempted sexual assault on a child. In 2006 he was rearrested for 5 counts of sexual assault on a child, 3 counts of sexual enticement of a child, and one count of sexual exploitation of a child.

Also in his possession was a jar of petroleum jelly that he planned to use in the sexual encounter.

 

 

B

He left OAR in 2023 after women made multiple claims of sexual misconduct and sexual grooming. It’s hard to argue against someone fighting sex trafficking, but it’s also hard not to think that person criminally hypocritical when he is discovered to be a sexual predator in sheep’s clothing.

Unnamed (as of 12/1/23) supervisor at the Trump New Jersey Golf Club—In a lawsuit, Alice Bianco, a former server at the club, filed a lawsuit accusing Trump attorney Alina Habba of acting unethically in seeking to derail Bianco’s complaint against the supervisor, who had sexually harassed her and used his position to force her to have sex then retaliated against her when she told him she didn’t want anything to do with him. The suit claims that Habba, acting as her “friend,” paid her “a paltry sum” to sign an NDA to keep her silent, also claiming that the payment would not be taxable. The latter was untrue, and Bianco was later forced not only to return the money, but to pay a $1,000 per day fine because NDAs regarding sexual harassment and abuse are illegal in New Jersey. The NDA was signed in 2021, and just weeks later, Habba began representing Donald Trump in his suit against Mary Trump. Bianco’s current lawyer, Nancy Erika Smith, said Habba “used the unethical silencing of my client” to “propel herself into Trumps inner circle. Her behavior was predatory. Pretending to be ‘neutral’ when acting on behalf of one party is clearly unethical.” She also wants Habba to be referred to the state attorney’s ethics office.
