One of the Qanon leaders turns out to be a pedophile.
And we learned this because he also happens to be incredibly stupid and
decided to file a defamation lawsuit.
An ill-fated defamation lawsuit that led to a discovery process where
we learned about the case involving him sleeping with a 15 year old girl.
Now at the heart of this story is Phil Godlewski,
who's got quite a following to be sure,
with more than 600,000 followers on the social media app Telegram and
156,000 subscribers on the alternative video platform Rumble.
He profits from encouraging his fans to sign up for
financial arrangements like a multilevel marketing scheme that sells silver.
Earlier this year, he used his Qanon earnings to buy $1.7 million house.
But then he made a lot of dumb decisions including filing this defamation lawsuit,
which of course he lost and we learned a lot of details about his past.
So let's get to those details.
Let's skip ahead.
And I do wanna give you a trigger warning cuz we're gonna get into details about
what he did, what he said to the 15 year old girl, it is triggering for
sexual assault, people who have suffered from sexual assault.
So I just wanna make sure you know that we're about to get into some details here
that are difficult.
But let's go to graphic three here.
In 2008, 9 years before Qanon began, a 25 year old Godlewski worked as
a high school baseball coach in a school district outside of Scranton.
That's where he met a 15 year old
female high school freshman referred to in court records as BD.
The student's boyfriend died by suicide soon after they had met and
the baseball coach comforted her.
So perfect opening for him to be a disgusting predator.
A few months later with BD still 15 years old and Godlewski a decade her senior,
he's 10 years older than her, so he's 25, she's 15, okay?
They began a sexual relationship according to police records and
a sworn affidavit from Godlewski's victim that was filed in court in November.
Now he loved bombed her, right, he showered her with gifts according to
police reports and a letter written by her parents filed into
the defamation record including a $2,800 pair of diamond earrings.
He also lavished her with attention in the form of text messages, not smart, that
laid out details of their sex life with more than 300 messages in one day alone.
So what did the messages say?
How bad is this?
Very bad.
So in one he wrote that they would only ever be sexually satisfied if
we did it like four to five times a day.
In another, he allegedly wrote that the teenager looked so good and
was giving incredible head while lamenting his own sexual performance.
He also allegedly provided her with a log of his ongoing thoughts over several days,
many of which were about his struggles with their illegal age difference.
Realize that you're only 15 but quickly stopped caring, one of the messages read.
Why are we so compatible, read another.
I'm 10 years older than you.
And in 2010, he was indicted on a raft of charges related to
the alleged sexual relationship.
In her recent affidavit BD claims that he contacted her and begged her to recant
her claims against him threatening to kill himself if she didn't.
In response, she stopped cooperating with law enforcement in the case.
He ultimately pleaded guilty to a lesser count of corruption of a minor
receiving three months under house arrest.
Now he denies that there was ever a sexual relationship, but remember,
through that discovery process in the defamation lawsuit,
you learn about the text messages, you learn about the evidence in that case.
So you can deny it all you want, but you put it in writing, you idiot.
And remember,
Qanon is the group that goes around accusing others of being pedophiles.
I mean, how many of these stories do we need to do where the people accusing
others of being groomers and
pedophiles end up having some pretty significant skeletons in their closets.
>> Yeah, as usual, of course.
So look, the people who believe in Qanon on this.
I think there's three buckets there.
One is people who will believe any conspiracy theory and
you probably met somebody like that in your life.
I know I have, you just, you tell them anything, the earth is flat,
the moon landing didn't happen.
And they'll believe it, right?
Pedophile ring in a pizza shop in the basement that runs the whole country.
They'll believe it in a second, right?
So you've got that group.
And then you've got a group that's actually my heart goes out to you,
it's a Qanon, how could your heart go,
because there is some percentage of those folks who are victims themselves.
So since it happened to them,
they understandably think it happens to everyone or to a ton of people.
And so that when you tell them, they're powerful people do pedophilia,
they go, of course they do.
I know, I suffered it, right?
So unfortunately, they're very susceptible to that kind of idea.
Then the person coming in can fill in the blank as to who
is running the pedophile ring.
They could say dentist, they could say democrats, and
those folks are more prone to believe it.
A lot of them, of course don't.
A lot of them are very rational and know that it's trauma that they live through,
but that doesn't necessarily mean that everybody does it.
But unfortunately some percentage are susceptible, okay?
Now the third bucket is the worst and that's the bucket he said,
and it's almost always the leaders.
They're the ones who are the pedophiles that are projecting.
They think, well I can't wait to sleep with children.
So I assume everybody can't wait to sleep with children.
And so the democrats must also wanna sleep with children.
So I'll accuse them of that and that'll be really effective.
And besides which is probably true because doesn't everybody wanna sleep with
children, right?
And that is what a lot of their leaders think.
And this guy goes, he already slept with children.
So he probably thinks, of course,
right, of course the democrats wanna do the same thing I wanna do.
No, we're not all monsters.
>> Yeah. >> But the leadership of Qanon has
a stunningly high percentage of being rumors and pedophiles.
So just be careful who you're listening to.
>> And I'm gonna end it here because this is, I mean this guy,
I mean when he succeeded in getting her to stop cooperating and
he got to plead guilty to a lesser charge.
After that, he felt probably invincible because he got into contact with her again
and get a load of what he said to her.
In a March 2021 text message according to the defense attorneys,
he texted the woman to express his condolences on her grandfather's death and
alluded to their sexual relationship.
I had no idea your Papa died, he wrote in a text message according to court filings.
I'm so sorry, I think we had sex in their bed though.
>> Bragging about how he had sex in the dead grandfather's bed.
He also offered her basically bribes when the trial came about saying there could be
a big payday for you if you help me with the defamation lawsuit and lie about it.
And lastly you noticed earlier, the way that he got out of criminal
prosecution was threatening to kill himself because he knew that her
boyfriend had killed himself and she was super vulnerable to that.
This is one of the worst people I've ever heard of except for
all the other Qanon leaders.
So just because somebody tells you something online,
not meaning it's true, okay?
So for God's sake, verify and when you hear guys like this,
understand that they're usually the ones doing it.
