Batarti Gabbard, the 55-year-old brother of former Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, was arrested Friday for allegedly trying to lure children to a hotel room in Honolulu, Hawaii using "gum and money," the Honolulu Star-Advertiser reported Saturday. "Batarti Gabbard, aka Bhakti Gabbard, allegedly approached several children, including a boy, age 9, and offered them gum and money to accompany him to his hotel room, according to police," the outlet reported. "He also asked the children for their names and wrote them in a notebook, police said. The children refused to go with him and the suspect walked away."

What does Tulsi's cult leader have to say about this?

Haven't got the numbers to run - let's recognize the Shyness Factor may play a role here - but there does seem to be a weird MAGA-pedophilia connection. I mean, yeah, sure, they rage about how they're "agin" that sick sheet. But then a lot of the cult's members seem to get popped for it. And then, always, there's an excuse. Problems then, good with Gawd now. That kind of juvenile horsepuckey. Babbling seems to be the entry signal with eye-rolling to seal the deal. No, you can't ask Donald Trump's buddy Jeffrey Epstein. Because he's dead. "Suspicious circumstances." So why not ask Trump? It's his coverup of his pedo buds. Yeah, MAGA and pedophilia. Remember what even they (especially they) say: where there's smoke ...

Isn't this what Trump/MAGA is pushing for? To make the world safe to lure kids into hotel rooms?
