Corey DeAngelis, a senior fellow at the conservative education nonprofit American Federation for Children, is alleged to have appeared in several gay adult films.

A school-privatization activist and frequent Fox News guest whose work has been praised by former President Donald Trump was placed on leave by his conservative nonprofit employer after reports that he had appeared in gay pornography videos surfaced.

Corey DeAngelis has been a senior fellow at the American Federation for Children, a conservative education nonprofit group founded by former Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, since 2021 (DeVos’ website says she is the former chair of the organization, and the organization’s site does not mention her as being currently involved). Asked about DeAngelis and the adult film reports, Rebekah Bydlak, a spokesperson for the organization, said, “We have placed the employee on leave as we look into this matter further.” Bydlak declined to comment further.

        The fact that he was “put on leave” implies that the people who made that decision equategay porn with things like pedophilia. The organization is allegedly about protecting kids, and clearly they don’t want gays near them… It’s not difficult to put 2 and 2 together there.

        It’s one of the main ideals of these kinds of groups.

          Maybe. They also don’t like gay people for themselves. But I don’t see how this qualifies as projection unless he actually is a pedophile.
