Former Washington state Rep. Matt Shea, the far-right Republican who was found by a House-commissioned investigation to have planned and participated in domestic terrorism, is in a small town in Poland with more than 60 Ukrainian children, trying to facilitate their adoption in America.

Shea has said his group helped rescue 62 children and their two adult caregivers from an orphanage in Mariupol, the city in southeastern Ukraine that has been bombarded by Russian forces.

But international agencies say, with the chaos and confusion of war, now is not an appropriate time for international adoptions from Ukraine. And Shea’s presence, and the lack of information surrounding the American group he’s with, has raised concerns among some residents of Kazimierz Dolny, the small Polish town where the children are staying at a hotel-guesthouse.

“I asked him many times, ‘What are you going to do with these children?’ and he told me that it’s not my business,'” Weronika Ziarnicka, an aide to the mayor of Kazimierz Dolny, said of Shea. “I got the feeling in my gut that something’s wrong with this guy; he didn’t want to tell me his last name.”

It gets worse.....

1. Lock him up. Take his passport.

For starters. How does he know the parents want their children adopted out? He needs some serious consequences for this.

[2naSalit]

10. +1

3. Another morally bankrupt traitor republican doing crime.

Nothing to see there .I wish we could just hang his evil ass.

[Hotler]

4. Doing Gods work. nt

[PortTack]

5. It's business...money for white babies. Sick fuck!!

[tanyev]

6. Hmm, did he also facilitate adoptions of kids taken away from their parents at the Mexico border?

[wnylib]

11. And after the Haiti earthquake?

Damned Republicans sure like splitting up families and grabbing up children.

[IronLionZion]

7. Qanon keeps missing a lot of child traffickers in the GOP

[Celerity]

21. I guarantee a shedload of paedos are in QAnon. Hiding in plain sight, and they get to chat about

their favourite subject all the time.

It is the same thing with the anti LGBTQ movement. A tonne of self-loathing, in the closet (and often get caught and exposed) queer folk fall in with those shitehawks.

[Dorian Gray]

34. I think you're right

and they project their basest instincts in their conspiracy theories about Democrats.

This story is chilling. How does he get to the place where he is actually in Poland trying to get 60 children to the USA?

[TheBlackAdder]

28. Perhaps QAnon's purpose is to get the Jeffrey Epsteins of the world off the hook.

8. Gee...

Gee I wonder what kind of families he wants them to get adopted into. Let me guess...white, RWNJ evangelical Christian families??!!

[wnylib]

12. More likely procuring them for

political pedophile rings.

[czarjak]

26. In pizza parlor basements.

29. Don't forget getting spirited away to a Martian Pedo Colony.

[Grokenstein]

9. Moscowbots would be all over Twitter screaming 'something something Hunter Biden'...

...except that's just a day ending in "y" for them.

[MagickMuffin]

13. Sex trade comes to mind

They are into trafficking young children. It's a part of who they are.

[BlueKentuckyGirl]

30. I agree.

First thing that came to my mind, too. At the very least, kidnapping.

[KS Toronado]

14. Hope he gets some jail time for his shenanigans.

[rockfordfile]

15. hahahahaha you could see that coming. David Koresh in the making.

“I asked him many times, ‘What are you going to do with these children?’ and he told me that it’s not my business,'” Weronika Ziarnicka, an aide to the mayor of Kazimierz Dolny, said of Shea. “I got the feeling in my gut that something’s wrong with this guy; he didn’t want to tell me his last name.”

I bet there's lots of that.

[MerryBlooms]

16. Polish authorities should arrest Shea and his minions

And deport. Unless Ukraine and/or Poland Requests this sort of help, and only official folks should even be allowed anywhere near these children.

[LiberalLovinLug]

17. Probably wants to raise them all with strict far right christian indoctrination

Add to his cult. Either himself, or other church members. Home-schooled to join the Trump Youth. If so I feel sorry for them.

[rockfordfile]

24. There have been kids kidnapped by right-wing religious crazies that have assaulted kids

[ZellyCabMem]

18. According to Wikipedia

In October 2018, Shea acknowledged that he had distributed a four page manifesto which called for the killing of non-Christian males if a war were to occur and they do not agree to follow fundamentalist biblical law.

Shea was referred to the Federal Bureau of Investigation for investigation as a result. In April 2019, Shea was removed as State House Republican Caucus Chair for advocating violence against religious minorities and offering state surveillance of political enemies to members of hate groups.

It only gets worse, the more you read about him. I, unfortunately, met him. Bat shit crazy.

It's customary to post the link to your source.

This one is a piece of work is all I can say.

[timvrip]

31. Just read the wiki

A right nasty bastard!

[Dorian Gray]

35. Thanks for sharing the source

this guy is a real piece of shit, and I really hope he leaves poland empty handed.

[mahina]

27. Welcome toDU!

[Solly Mack]

19. The Polish authorities need to detain him and investigate his every move, motive, and paperwork.

[StevieM]

20. This is horrifying.

I have serious doubts if these kids are all truly confirmed as orphans. Many of them may be separated from their families by the chaos of war. But there are people in this country who scour the world looking for children they can portray as in need of adoption.

[dchill]

23. I don't know why, but I'm now thinking of "Rawhide"...

Keep movin', movin', movin'
Though they're disapprovin'
Keep them dogies movin', rawhide
Don't try to understand 'em
Just rope 'em, throw, and brand 'em
Soon we'll be livin' high and wide
My heart's calculatin'
My true love will be waitin'
Be waitin' at the end of my ride

Move 'em on, head 'em up
Head 'em up, move 'em on
Move 'em on, head 'em up, rawhide
Cut 'em out, ride 'em in
Ride 'em in, cut 'em out
Cut 'em out, ride 'em in, rawhide

Rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rawhide
Rawhide

32. He's a fucking vulture. nt

[DFW]

33. This guy sounds like botulism in a soup can

Pure poison. I hope no one lets anywhere near children, and that he is barred from ever entering the EU again.

[Hassler]

36. With any good fortune, She's will get to experience Polish prison cuisine.

[Quakerfriend]

37. We haven't heard any follow up as to what's being done

about this guy…. Does anybody know??
