It's been announced just hours ago that he has a Kik account. Anyone under 30 can tell you what that's used for.

I’m over 30. Can you tell me? Is it like pedo shit or something?

Not officially, but it was one of the most popular third party messaging apps for 13-18 year olds because it supports anonymity and lacks any semblance of parental controls. It has been implicated in numerous child porn, underage sexting and grooming scandals. CBS News once described it as a "predator's paradise".

I've heard the same thing about pretty much every social media and messaging app. Seems to be a problem in general.

True, but Kik in particular isn't social media and has little in the way of legitimate uses except to send messages that aren't linked to a stock messaging app, a name or a phone number.

Sure Jan,  verify that info or your just spreading vague unsubstainted bs on the internet. The epstisn files have sources and victims and Susan Collins is all about protecting those people so she can keep sucking the life out of her own constituents. Please share actual receipts.

Verify what, the history of Kik and child abuse? Real their Wikipedia article, it's all there and sourced.

As far as I'm aware, there is no connection between Collins and protecting Epstein.

Sigh ..nooo verify that there was any interactions on any platform, anywhere of an inappropriate,  illegal or predatory nature with GP and a minor.  Your making vague, disgusting  allusions to things that never happend and have no basis in reality. 

As for Susan Colins she voted AGAINST forcing release of the Epstien files.  Clean and simple,  She is shielding sex traffickers, rapists and pedophiles with that vote.  And that's on record.  Among other things.

I never said that this Senate candidate did anything inappropriate on Kik, just that it's suspect given his history of bad judgement.

As for the Epstein files, she voted to release them. Stop spreading disinformation. The vote was unanimous.

And allegedly posted half undressed pictures of himself. Nothing but a towel wrapped around his waist

That one I personally don't have much of a problem with, it's only shirtless.

Though I did note that the totenkopf tattoo he pretended not to know the meaning of just happened to be cleverly obscured in the photo.
