do you know people can read this

Here's a journalism pro-tip: the allegations were proven in court, they're now facts!

You’re thinking of Dennis Hastert. His twin brother, ennis, was only fouled by allegations.

Predator down!!! 🎉

How fitting that he died without his D.

Good news

“Allegations”. F all the way off.

I am upset and saddened to learn he was still alive.

Hell has welcomed him home.

An obituary read with great pleasure.

Is Gym Jordan attending the services?

Why is it the same crime with all of them? I love that it’s in the headline of his obituary though

“Allegations”?? Seriously, what kind of reputation-laundering horseshit is this??

You can say rapist after they die. It's okay, the courts let you do it.

Terrible headline

Caught in hush money scheme, guilty in financial laws, and a pedophile. One man goes to jail; another the Whitehouse.

💥WTF NPR?!?!?!!! 💥 Are saying he "alleged" that he molested students? Because he admitted in court to doing it.

Convicted molestor. Convicted Convicted Convicted

Ennis. Got em

He was a child rapist who was jailed for illegally paying hush money to keep the victims quiet. But yeah, trust wash that shit! SHAME

Good. Asshole.

"At a sentencing hearing, Hastert admitted that he had sexually abused boys whom he had coached." Meisner, Jason; Coen, Jeff; Gutowski, Christy (April 27, 2016). "Dennis Hastert, former U.S. House speaker, sentenced to 15 months in prison". Chicago Tribune.

Another dead GOP pedophile is always a good thing.

"Allegations," you say? Shame on you @npr.org "Dennis Hastert, admitted child molester and Republican House Speaker, died."

It’s not allegations if you’re convicted and went to prison

Try again with the headline NPR. cease.law.uga.edu/news/dennis-...

Allegations? Allegations he admitted, no? What on earth is this headline?

Fouled is too gentle a word. Any legacy should have ended when he was molesting children. People knew.

hey you've got a minor typo there no not the D left off from the name, the part where you say "fouled by allegations that he had" He EXPLICITLY ADMITTED IT as part of his plea! There's no "presumed innocent *after pleading guilty to sex abuse in open court*" standard of journalism, you lunatics!

It's no surprise that those who support exploitation and abuse politically very often commit exploitation and abuse personally. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025... goppredators.wordpress.com

Some good news for this morning

Little typo there...

Maybe after you learn to spell "Dennis" you can learn the difference between "allegations" and "established fact." We used to have respect for you.

what a good day

ood iddance, ick.

Hastert was not "fouled by allegations", his VICTIMS bravely came forward and spoke out. "later fouled by allegations" is so disingenuous that listeners/readers should genuinely consider not consuming your works. wtf?!

Fouled by allegations? Excuse me he admitted sexual abuse. abcnews.com/amp/Politics...

Rest in piss, you nasty fucker.

Just another dead pedophile.

There is nothing alleged about his crimes. The asshole was convicted.

WTF… Who wrote this? “Fouled by allegations…” he was sent to jail figure that qualifies as a bit more than mere allegations.

HE ADMITTED TO MOLESTING BOYS IN COURT. FIX YOUR HEADLINE.

Another GOP Gem 🙄

Another Repugnican pedophile bites the dust.

He wasn't convincted of them. But he admitted to doing it in his sentencing hearing.

He confessed to doing it and was convicted . It wasn’t some random allegations. Please fix this @npr.org

He was not "fouled by allegations". This is journalistic malpractice. He quite literally admitted to being a child molester and a sexual predator, you absolute failures of humanity.

Pretty shameful that "longtime republican who went to prison" doesn't narrow down the field that much.

Glad y’all chopped his D off. Overdue tbh

can you at least post your own pedophile apologia instead of being lazy and reposting the @apnews.com's?

Rest in Piss

i.e. a republican who couldn't get a pardon...

Still the wrong obituary.

You mention his longest tenure as speaker before mentioning the despicable crimes. Some of you are shit at this.

Best known for being next to Dick Cheney behind George W Bush while he lied through his teeth at State of the Union every year

“fouled by” Oh my god.

Someone should look into whoever wrote this headline. Seems like a grade a creep.

can't even spell Dennis while you pretend they were just allegations

Fouled by allegations or fouled by his own actions?

Pretty sure they’re not “allegations” if they were tested in court.

Oh, dang, "fouled" by his pesky proclivity for raping children? Hey, NPR, if you would have led with his crimes, maybe you would have spelled his name right. Are those Mossad "content advisors" charging extra for spell checking or something?

So, one less p3do.

good riddance pervert pedo

Allegations? What the fuck?

He was convicted (plea bargained) for financial crimes, not molestation.

Enough to put him on sex offender registry.

Unfortunately no convictions on sexual abuse due to statutes of limitations. Journalists tend to follow old rules. NYT continued to use Mrs or Miss for women for years after Ms. was introduced. Both the AP and NYT have published guides. Value in consistency for the reader?

Rest in piss, you evil demon.

Perhaps he was chosen for his known indiscretions, more extortable, kinda like the pre-Epstein era of GOP quid pro quo placements? It’s a pattern…

Allegations? Really?

They were not allegations his pedo ass went to prison. Do better for Christ’s sake.

Remembering as if in a distant fog when NPR had integrity. Fuckin disgusting shit now.

I think If someone admits in court to molesting children, the pock on their career is no longer the allegation.

Not "allegations"! He admitted it!

They were pedos then and they're pedos now

NPR, your "journalism" is fouled by AI and a complete lack of anyone HUMAN actually spell checking or proofreading the slop you now pass off as news. Do better, this is why PEOPLE need to be writing, not AI agents and a lazy person adding their name, pretending to do journalism. Piss poor slop.

Good riddance, oxygen thief.

Hennis Dastard

“Fouled” is an unusual synonym for rape. Do better NPR, much better.

Grock, is "ennis" an acceptable spelling according to @merriam-webster.com ?

One less fuckweasel. Excellent.

"Allegations" = Hestert made a plea deal with prosecutors, he pled guilty to felony structuring charge (which he used to pay his victims hush money) & they dropped the false statement charges. During the sentencing hearing, he admitted to molesting boys as a HS wrestling coach but he wasn't charged.

This is why you’ve lost so many supporters @npr.org Truly, fuck off

Reminds us of Jim Jordan
