I dunno...

Pizzagate, Wayfair, stories of a huge pedophile ring in Hollywood..."absurd conspiracy theories", we're told, "completely debunked". 

Maybe. But I can't shake the feeling that this satirical story from the Babylon Bee is going to wind up cutting very near the bone: "Hollywood Elites Rush To Normalize Pedophilia Before They're All Outed By Ghislaine Maxwell".

First I heard that Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson had taken Greek citizenship was when USA Today ran an article about it, and specifically explained that it had nothing to do with pedophilia.

Which connection would never had occurred to me, until they brought it up. It's kind of like asking your son how his day was and he says "Fine, but I did not burn down Mr. Parker's garden shed.

Seriously, I find it difficult to picture Mr. Hanks as a pedophile. But now I have to wonder why the first thing I read about him is a denial that he is one.

Steve, Bill Cosby denied being a serial rapist too, and who would have believed that about "America's dad"?

Given all the many cases of pedophilia and other sexual offenses that have come out about Hollywank in recent years, I'm not sure it is an "absurd conspiracy theory".

And there's this curious item: ""Tom Hanks just deleted three years worth of tweets in the last hour".

It may be just coincidence, but there seems to be a lot of child sex/trafficking rings being busted since Ghislaine was taken in - even one here in Perth. And frankly, I don't believe in that much coincidence.

Gregory: Yes, as of last week, some 72 missing children had been rescued in three states as part of an operation involving federal, state and local law enforcement. Something's going on.
