Federal agents from the Department of Homeland Insecurity as well as the New York Thug Department raid Rentboy's central Manhattan offices 8/25/15
The Ashley Madison hack exposed state and federal judges and prosecutors, federal employees, military personnel, college professors, journalists, Hollywood celebrities, lawyers, teachers and even members of the British Parliament, as inveterate adulterers. On Tuesday 25th of August, 'Rentboy', a website that facilitates gay prostitution, had its offices raided by the Department of Homeland Security, as well as the NYPD.

A business owner active in the NYC gay community told me:
"How does a high-profile company which has been reported on by the mainstream press and lampooned by countless late night show hosts, become a target for Homeland Security 18 years after its founding? Isn't there a "statute of limitations" law that a defendant can point to, stating that if the government hasn't taken action after a certain amount of time on what they perceive to be illegal activity, then that activity is essentially being condoned by the government?"
While the DHS claim that raid was conducted because Rentboy was participating in 'criminal prostitution', the real reason, undoubtedly, has more to do with the threat of the names of habitual users of Rentboy's 'services' being made public.

Last month David Geithner, CFO of Conde Nast Publications and brother of former US treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, allegedly attempted to hire a "male escort" during a business trip to Chicago. Geithner is married, to a woman, and has three kids. Once the escort found out who his client was, he asked David for help with a housing situation in Texas. Geithner refused and called off the affair. That resulted in the escort going to Gawker with the story which created a firestorm on the internet. Most commenters came down hard on Gawker, and eventually the story was redacted. However, the damage was done, and I'm sure many in DC realized that this could happen to them.

Let's face it, the US government isn't in the business of protecting people (unless they're ultra-rich, well-connected, criminal cops or mercenaries hired to do their bidding). In fact, its behavior at home (police slaughtering unarmed folk and imprisoning others for minor crimes) and abroad (funding ISIS and Israel - the two most bellicose entities on the planet) suggests quite the opposite. That's completely neglecting to mention CIA involvement in Ukraine, which ousted a democratically-elected government and installed puppets with proud Nazi leanings, but I digress.

Remember that huge scandal at the Pentagon with all the kiddie-porn? No? Oh, that's because someone made it quietly disappear. It's funny how roughly 5,200 Pentagon employees viewing and purchasing child pornography were never prosecuted, arrested or exposed in any way, but when consensual acts between adults occur, it 'might be illegal if money is exchanged'. That's some BS right there.

Speaking of high-level child sex rings, a little-known episode called the Franklin Scandal involved many local and national politicians, as well as Hollywood moguls and their buddies, purchasing child sex slaves. The investigation was shut down left, right and center as the alphabet agencies worked overtime to cover up the crimes. Witnesses dropped dead or disappeared, and an investigator was killed in a plane 'accident'. The Franklin Scandal isn't even a unique case: consider the 'Finders' case in Tallahassee just a couple years earlier in 1987; the 'Dutroux Affair' in Belgium in 1994; and the DynCorp scandal in the late '90s... Don't take my word for it, Google is a wonderful tool for the curious mind.

What's been clear for some time now is that there are some very rich, very powerful, and very well-connected people who have been routinely sexually abusing children. The policing and judicial authorities don't just know about it, they're accessories to the crimes, which is why you won't ever see the Department of Homeland Security raiding their homes and offices.

So make no mistake, this crackdown on gay prostitution has nothing to do with 'upholding the law' or any moral considerations. Rich, powerful people will continue paying for male escorts, only now they'll do so in the same way they abuse children: much more carefully and covertly. The legal system is not used to correct the problems with society, it is used to protect the rich, powerful and sadistic.

When you can pick up the phone and arrange a Homeland Security raid on a business - that's power. When you can order a child prostitute, do anything you want with them, including rape and murder, and then dispose of them - that's the 'freedom' our leaders are always referring to: their freedom to commit heinous acts and get away with them. It's the sadistic freedom of psychopaths using the state apparatus to do whatever they want to whomever they want. Not only do they get away with it, they use tax dollars and the government to make sure people are kept in the dark... about what they get up to after dark.
