MeidasTouch, the far-left news organization responsible for the “bloodbath” hoax, boasts former Republican legislator Denver Riggleman as a contributor. Riggleman previously won plaudits from the left for collaborating with the Democrat-dominated January 6 Committee, which employed him as a senior staffer.
Riggleman began his transformation into an anti-America First crusader after local party officials censured him for failing to oppose “out-of-control spending” or mass migration in Congress. He was also criticized for failing to support “traditional family values, and other conservative principles,” and in particular for officiating a homosexual wedding for two of his staffers. This helped precipitate a successful primary challenge by now-Rep. Bob Good in 2020.
Described as an “intel expert” on his MeidasTouch profile, Riggleman was best known as a comic figure prior to the aforementioned controversies, with his 2018 election campaign marred by revelations concerning his penchant for “Bigfoot erotica.”
Democrat opponent Leslie Cockburn unearthed social media posts by Riggleman featuring Bigfoot or Riggleman himself as Bigfoot with oversized genitals for a fictitious book about the cryptid’s “mating habits.”
Riggleman self-published at least two tomes on Bigfoot titled Bigfoot Exterminators, Inc. and Bigfoot… It’s Complicated. Cockburn claims she has read a third Riggleman book on Bigfoot titled Bigfoot Assassins, featuring a “key plot point about witches and menstrual blood.”
Bigfoot… It’s Complicated, published after Riggleman’s election, is “absolutely jam-packed with Bigfoot sex,” according to reviewers, with its very first chapter being titled, ‘A Discussion on Simian Genitalia.’
Riggleman claims in the book that he does not personally “dabble in monster porn,” though he plaintively asks: “How could someone kink-shame those gentle souls who take delight in the soulful, passionate moan of Sasquatch?”
MeidasTouch involves many unpleasant characters, including ‘Coach D,’ who believes America’s Founders were all white supremacist racist pedophiles.
My opponent Denver Riggleman, running mate of Corey Stewart, was caught on camera campaigning with a white supremacist. Now he has been exposed as a devotee of Bigfoot erotica. This is not what we need on Capitol Hill. pic.twitter.com/0eBvxFd6sG
