Log Cabin Republicans

Reid Rasner, an openly gay Republican candidate for Wyoming's House seat, is suing members of his own party for defamation after being called a 'pedophile' in social media posts. He is settling a case with an Iowa man and pursuing another against a former GOP Wyoming state senator who allegedly spread rumors about his sexual misconduct. The accusations, which began after Rasner's 2025 TikTok acquisition proposal, led to death threats, campaign damage, and a drop in support following a misleading poll about his sexuality.
