Republican Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina has established herself as a flawed-yet-principled advocate for women. Meanwhile, former Democratic Gov. Martin O'Malley of Maryland, who served as Social Security Commissioner for less than a year under President Joe Biden and whom extreme political junkies might remember as an obscure Democratic...

Some supporters of President-elect Donald Trump on the social media platform X have a preferred mantra. "Nothing can stop what is coming," they often write. Leave it to the president-elect himself to distill that mantra into yet another iconic image. On Wednesday, Trump's official inaugural portrait began circulating on X,...

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) introduced legislation that significantly increases penalties for individuals convicted of sex crimes against children, including the death penalty and life imprisonment. “Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna (FL-13) reintroduced three pieces of legislation aimed at significantly increasing penalties for individuals convicted of crimes related to child pornography, child trafficking, and sexual abuse of adults,” a press release from Luna’s office stated. “These bills seek to amend Title 18 of the United States Code to ensure harsher sentences and mandatory minimums for those found guilty of these crimes, including the death penalty and life imprisonment,” it added.

Our current laws allow abusers to escape true judgment, failing to protect victims and deter future offenders,” Luna said. “The days of inaction against those who prey on children and sexually abuse adults are over. Pedophiles deserve the death penalty or to rot in jail where they belong—no mercy, no escape,” she added. Pedophiles could see death penalty under new House GOP bill: 'Taken off the streets permanently'https://t.co/hI2wWahFfz — Anna Paulina Luna (@realannapaulina) January 14, 2025 From Luna’s office: The Holding Child Predators Accountable Act amends Title 18 of the U.S. Code to mandate the death penalty or life imprisonment for those convicted of producing, distributing, or possessing child pornography involving the sexual exploitation of minors. The No Repeat Child Sex Offenders Act amends Title 18 of the U.S. Code to impose the death penalty or life imprisonment for those convicted of child trafficking, covering a wide array of activities, including sexual exploitation, trafficking, abuse of minors, transportation for sexual activities, coercion into prostitution, operation of sexual exploitation enterprises, production of child pornography, and other forms of sexual abuse and contact. The Justice for Rape Survivors Act amends Title 18 of the U.S. Code to give at least 30 years, or life in prison, to felons convicted of rape and sexual abuse of adults. Congresswoman Luna’s reintroduction of these bills is a critical step toward ensuring justice for victims and protecting our communities, especially children, from sexual predators. Having first introduced these bills last Congress, Congresswoman Luna remains steadfast in her commitment to advocating for stricter penalties and mandatory sentences, sending a strong message that these horrible crimes will not be tolerated. “Producing, distributing, or possessing child pornography are horrific crimes that deserve life imprisonment or death,” Luna said. “My Holding Child Predators Accountable Act will ensure these monsters are permanently taken off our streets and NEVER harm another child,” she added.

Anna Paulina Luna (@RepLuna) January 16, 2025 Fox News reports: Luna told Fox News Digital she broached the topic with President-elect Donald Trump over the weekend, who she suggested was enthusiastic about the idea. “I got the impression that he absolutely is supportive of anything in this sector,” Luna said. The Florida congresswoman was among the members of the House Freedom Caucus who met with Trump over the weekend at Mar-a-Lago. She said they also discussed Trump potentially signing an executive order levying the death penalty for pedophilia-related crimes but that it would likely be impossible to accomplish that way. “He would be willing to sign an [executive order]. But the fact is, is that it has to go through Congress first. So it would have to come to his desk that way,” she said. Luna first introduced the bills in the last Congress when Democrats controlled half of Congress as well as the White House. They failed to get much traction, however, and ultimately never saw a House-wide vote.
