From The New Republic:
A former aide in Donald Trump’s presidential administration and a senior adviser to Project 2025 is in trouble for sending creepy internet messages to teenagers.
John McEntee, who also co-founded the conservative dating app The Right Stuff, sent messages to multiple young women offering in some cases to give them free trips to Los Angeles and making sexual advances, Wired reports. The app’s sole investor is right-wing billionaire Peter Thiel, and it has been criticized for its mostly male user base.
…
The publication spoke to one of those women, who asked to remain anonymous. Also aged 18, she said that McEntee reached out to her on The Right Stuff’s app before moving to text messages, using the same southern California phone number he sent to Carter. Over text, he sent her clearly identifiable selfies and began mentioning explicit sexual acts that made her uncomfortable, and encouraged her to come to California.

McEntee apparently asked these girls to bring other girls with them to California. He talked a lot about their age and how cool it would be to have sex with an 18-year-old.
McEntee was fired from the Trump Administration in 2018 because his excessive gambling and misfiled taxes prevented him from getting a security clearance. But he was rehired by Trump in 2020 as director of the White House Presidential Personnel Office. Of course, failing upwards is Trump’s modus operandi.
In May, 2023, McEntee was hired as a senior adviser by the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, a plan to replace the entire Federal Government with loyal Trump fascists, abolish the Department of Education and promote “Biblical morality” while stamping out LGBTQ+ rights, among other draconian aims.
Trump sure knows how to pick ‘em. Neither he nor any of his chosen incel minions should be allowed anywhere near the reins of government. They should be in prison.
