You will no doubt be shocked to hear that a crazily homophobic federal judge has been tied to a gay sex scandal. But here’s the fun twist this time: Donald Trump is thinking about nominating him to the Supreme Court.
The man in question is William Holcombe “Bill” Pryor Jr., an eleventh-circuit judge and former Attorney General of Alabama. He’s married (to a woman), has two daughters, and he really really really hates queers. He’s said that queer people should be arrested for having consensual sex in their homes; that being gay is harmful; and he voted to keep kids in orphanages rather than allow them to go to supportive same-sex adoptive parents. Trump says he’d consider Pryor for the Supreme Court.
What a bunch of jerks.
He is also, allegedly, featured in nude photographs that floated around on BadPuppy in the 90s. It sure looks like him! The man in the picture is looking glumly at the camera, on full display, and is identified as “Bill Pryor.” Various unnamed officials have identified the photo as authentic; but then again, it’s easy to claim all kinds of things anonymously.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
For his part, Pryor says it’s not him, just like every other Republican caught doing something sexual.
For now, Trump hasn’t said anything about Pryor’s potentially-naked past. But lots of other legitimate legal observers have heard the rumors, and are only too happy to spread them. Maybe that’s the silver lining to Trump’s impending presidency: it’ll force some truly shocking secrets out into the open.
You can see the NSFW shot of possibly-Pryor here, along with some very wild theories on the topic.

Very handsome.

The philtrum area looks different, but maybe that’s the angle.
TampaBayTed
Seems Mr. Huff and Puff Trump is acting like he’s already the president with his Supreme Court short list and his list of cabinet appointees.
TampaBayTed
Hiz honor needs to show us his cock to dispel these rumors.
TampaBayTed
This is bogus.
J.T.
His Honor hasn’t done much in working out a new hair style. The possibility of naming him gives pause to worry further about Trump’s incipient homophobia. He hates everyone else, why not us?
baggins435
Rather than comparing then and now pics, someone should be able to locate his senior pic from his high school year book.
DCguy
He is rabidly anti-gay, that has a very very high correlation with being a self hating closet case.
That makes it seem very likely the picture is him.
GC1985
@joeyty: Personality and views makes him very ugly.
dubstepskater
After seeing the NSFW photos, I’d deny it’s me too because he seems a little (pun intended? lol) inadequate. I guess not everyone can be well endowed. As for his “arrest all LGBT for having sex inside their homes”? How do he intend to prove that in court unless they are peeking in our windows… Which I’m pretty sure is against the law too. Duh! ?
zipperzone
Well, as I live on the 38th floor they would have to use a drone.
captainburrito
Find some of his old pics. Surely confirming him to the bench would only piss off Republicans too since he believes only on sex in a marital relationship. Can’t see many straights subscribing to that.

Hmmmm…. A Judge. So he would be well versed in how to file a Slander/Defamation of Character lawsuit based on a very old photo that slightly resembles him.
William H Pryor Jr v. Parties:
1. **** Internet News Service
2. Queerty.com
I don’t think Trump is stupid enough to put that out there.
Uncle Mark
@TampaBayTed: Mr Drumpf has only submitted this short list of SCOTUS possibilities for two reasons (and not because he thinks he’s already won the Presidency):
1. He wants to assure the GOP that he will appoint conservative judges, if he gets the nomination (to quell rumors that he is not a real conservative), and this will aid in the GOP acceptance of Drumpf.
2. It serves as a distraction for the media to obsess about for the next week or two, instead of focusing on Drumpf’s Income Tax Return…or rather lack thereof.
joeyty
@GC1985: You wouldn’t have liked him no matter what his views. No lipstick on him.
joeyty
More ridiculous than this is Trump’s donating to his pal Cyndi Lauper’s True Colors houses. Any charity that lets people live for free in NYC until age 25..???? I mean…come on..
alanh1249
PS…. I don’t like either guy

“…Pryor says it’s not him, just like every other Republican asshole caught doing something sexual.”
You mean like when Democratic President Bill Clinton denied rape allegations from Juanita Brodderick?
Or when Bill Clinton was stripped of license to practice law and forced to pay Paula Jones $850,000 for sexual harassment?
DCguy
@Alistair Wiseman:
No, more like when GOP Speaker of the House Dennis Hastart denied raping 4 boys, later admitted the molestation and yet several current GOP elected officials still requested that he not be jailed.
[email protected]
I suspect The Donald has NEVER seen this list. It will however keep everyone talking for days rather than examining Trump’s lack of qualifications to hold ANY public office.
[email protected]
@Uncle Mark: Amen.
Mack
@baggins435: I was thinking the same thing. It really shouldn’t be that hard.
It’s ass****s like this that we need to elect a Democrat for President and fill Congress with Democrats. We get someone like this on the Supreme Court and there goes all our rights.

Hello

Nude photos of men are not gay. The desperation of the gay community is bottomless.

Alabama never ceases to amaze me.

Notice all the rightwing family groups are run by self hating gay people.

@Alistair Wiseman: Alistair Dear, your Republican Party is tearing itself to shreds…They can’t stand Trump. Majority leader and speaker won’t back him. What do you think will happen at YOUR convention? Do you actually think it’s a foregone conclusion that Trump gets the republican nomination? Nope. Your party will finish destroying itself in one of 5 ways: http://www.newsweek.com/how-stop-trump-count-ways-439569
If that happens Alistair, expect nothing short of a revolt of republican voters. You won’t have to worry about a republican anything after that happens…
Good Luck. Have Fun. I will be watching from the sidelines!
batesnight
Well unfortunately they may have said words that are homophobic, but just because Donald is considering them isn’t for that reason. It’s business. There are conservatives and republicans out there who are pro marriage equality, but naturally the media only gives you the anti-gay ones. So the not thought out point of view is to immediately come to the conclusion that all of them are anti-gay. That couldn’t be more false. Do some research.
dean089
A president can nominate whomever he/she wants, but that person still has to be confirmed by Congress. Among both candidates and many voters we seem to have lost the fact that a president is neither a king nor dictator.
GC1985
@joeyty: Personality matters. But he isn’t a looker anyways.
@DCguy: Donald Trump raped his exwife, slept with hookers and took money from the mafia. Hardly a beacon of honesty.
@youarekiddingme: Even if Trump would get the nomination, almost 30-35% of Republicans won’t vote for him. Pretty bad numbers at this point. Almost a third of Republicans hate him. Hey Aliatta boy, say hello to President Clinton.
GC1985
And don’t pay attention to current diarrhea polling known as Faux News and Rasmussen. Rasmussen actually has Mitt Romney ahead of Obama by 5-6% in 2012 lmao. Other polls show Hillary leading in just about every battle ground state and even make Louisiana and Georgia battleground states. Trump ties Hillary in Georgia. Real shocker.
misterhollywood
Let’s cut to the chase – it’s him. None of should be stunned. How many massively anti-gay conservatives have played this ridiculous game. I know I’ll be doing my part to share this story on social media. To me this goes beyond Mr. Trump condidering a person like this. It’s about exposing the hypocrisy.
I’m sure there are other pics that will surface. There always are.
EggYolk
Pretty sure those are two different people.
GC1985
@dean089: Trump would come with his authoritarian party. Some Americans seem to forget the catastrophic damage republicans have done to this country.

Doesn’t look like him – but most outspoken homophobic people have something to hide

Can’t really see enough but the eyebrows are definitely different. Then again aging could change them.

I had been putting off reading the whole list of Trump’s possible Supreme Court nominations, but I finally took the plunge. Ugh. They are ALL pretty scary!

Well the time is near….. Bell ring
Armiya
Somewhere, someplace…someone MUST have the model release of this session, with a copy of his ID with a birthdate match up. I would LOVE to see his reaction if that was ever dug up. Honestly, I wish someone would bluff that to him in conversation that it has been found, to get him to crack.
GC1985
This is why Hillary continues to lead him. Pay no attention to Faux Diarrhea news or Rasmussen (been wrong in the last two elections). According to Rasmussen, John McCain and Mitt Romney should have won lmao. Real polls put Hillary ahead in just about every battleground state and shows even deeply republican Georgia in play. What a shocker.
Bernie Sanders gave an interview this morning and he looks as much in denial as the GOP. The man is stupid and no wonder his fundraising is drying up. He paid some of his staffers $500,000-$800,000 and hired this former Gore staffer I never liked. His c@mpaign blew through tens of millions… And has just $6 million left on hand. Hillary has four times that. She was strategic and he was reckless.
GC1985
Bernie spent four times what Hillary did in Pennsylvania and New York, yet lost both by double digits. Neither Bernie nor Trump are qualified to be President.
JamJewel
It’s the eyes… look at his eyes…. in the current picture it’s his right eye that is in the corner while is left eye is centered; in the young picture, which maybe reversed (there is a photographic term for it) where it looks like his left eye that is in the corner while his right eye is focused. There is a word for that phenomena where one eye is not as centered as the other (Used to be ‘cross-eyed’ when I had it as a kid and it was corrected with surgery)
crowebobby
@alanh1249: You REALLY think there’s something Donald isn’t stupid enough to do?!!!!
Bryguyf69
@Alistair Wiseman: What you refuse to acknowledge is that no matter what sexual improprieties Clinton — or most Democrats — have committed, it lacks the element of HYPOCRISY. The Democratic Party has never sought to criminalize private consensual behavior. Democrats don’t claim a lock on “family values,” as if there is only one type of family. Democrats don’t claim to be holier than thou.
Furthering this hypocrisy is that fact that judgmental Republicans list “character” as a top requirement. In that criterion, no one — Republican, Democrat or Independent — has gone lower than Trump.
Bryguyf69
@Alistair Wiseman: If you want to dwell on 1990’s, that’s your problem. And if Bill Clinton’s alleged personal behavior affects you, then I suggest getting some professional help. I, however, will focus on the candidates. I will look at present behavior, relevant experience, and future plans. Then it’s not even close. To borrow from the NY Times, what we have is arguably the most qualified candidate ever running against the least experienced and least tested. I can’t remember another candidate who has had experience in ALL 3 BRANCHES OF GOVERNMENT: Executive (possibly the most politically active and influential First Lady, sparking the name, Billary), Legislative (2 time Senator from NY) and Judicial (Yale-educated attorney) — not to mention her incalculable experience as Secretary of State in very troubled times.
This comparison doesn’t even factor in Trump’s disgusting behavior. He claims to want to make “America great again,” yet never has another candidate embarrassed the US so much. Can you think of another candidate that the UK, one of our greatest allies, tried to ban? That didn’t even happen to George Washington in 1776. And China recently cited Trump’s candidacy is an example of how Democracy doesn’t work. Plus, Paris’ mayor just called Trump, “crazy.” I won’t even mention what they think of him in Mexico and Latin America, and progressive Scandinavia and Canada. That’s bringing respect back to America?
Then there’s Trump’s alleged support for the military. A veteran’s group just showed that much of the money he supposedly raised for vets never went to vets. But more troubling is Trump’s willingness to force our troops to use torture, regardless of International Law. That led CIA Director, John Brennen to publicly say that he’d defy Trump’s orders. Can you remember that ever happening in our past — where the CIA said in no uncertain terms that it would defy a President? And let’s not forget the open letter signed by military experts against Trump. But here’s where Trump’s support is a sad joke. By ordering torture, he is forcing our troops to use The Nuremberg Defense. Whether tried by a War Crimes tribunal or the Court of Public Opinion, “I was just following orders” won’t work. It wasn’t valid in post-WW2 Nuremberg and it won’t work today. Forcing our troops to such a defense is support?
And I could go on and on…

OMG !!!!!!
I am totally shocked !!!!!
bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaa
Celtic
This comes as absolutely NO surprise. Hell, those who hate us the most also want us the most. Most of our virulent enemies are closet queers; or have done things that they want to keep away from their current celebrity. I mean, look at this latest photo. If that ain’t a queer sneer I ain’t queer no more.
tomk1of1
Either way,past or not,people who are rabidly anti anything,very unreasonable and overboard have some emotions attracted to subject. With being gay it is almost always their own strong desire they are suppressing. Closeted people are extremely homophobic. The longer a “homosexual” who is very closeted,whether for religion or social,whatever the reason the more “wacko” they get. Not to be to clinical here, ,lol…
But sadly,they are in essence trying to kill that part of themselves,in effect. A few famous serial killers who preyed on teens or young adult boys were rabidly anti gay and lead conventional lives. John Wayne Gacy for instance.
This an extreme example,but it shows how the need to kill that part of themselves becomes literal. He is smart enough to be a judge. This is never intellect anyway. It is always emotional.
There is also homosexual panic. But that is usually acute. Some gay bashers claim it as a defense. However it is usually attached to another mental illness. Usually

Mandrake
Coming from a devout Catholic family in Alabama, he would not be posing nude with his face included back in the 80’s. I don’t care how much these two guys resemble each other.
tomk1of1
I posted earlier that this man’s extreme homophobia may be his own desires suppressed.,.pretty common. However,if the story is true,he may have been taken advantage of,hurt,abused,etc…by so some or the industry itself. He may have found himself in the industry and was far true fragile emotionally to handle it. But as repulsive as his ideas are. He is likely an emoitionally sick man,maybe one with an abusive past.???

So now Queerty is recycling stories from May 2016.
I see posters ‘youarekiddingme’ and ‘GC1985’ couldn’t have been any more wrong about the election.

Don’t believe or disbelieve, but can’t they ID people with great accuracy by the ears?
Don’t know where I heard that or if it’s true.
NateOcean
I recognize those lips. They were wet, inviting, and pressed up againt the glory hole at the I20 truck stop just outside Birmingham. I’m certain they were his.
Mo Bro
What’s with the desperation of the Left to portray the Right all as closet cases?
I’m truly curious to know.
Doughosier
Posing naked for money is being a model, it’s not a gay porn past. He was cute though.
Brian
MHD (male homosexual desire) is a very powerful thing that is present in all men. I welcome the Republicans and their associations with men who believe in MHD as opposed to gay.
Gay is a tired, faded term that belongs to the dustbin. It has done enormous damage to MHD.
Welcome to the era of MHD, folks.
Billy Budd
I hope the media will bury this bastard with scandal. I hope he will never be able to walk out of home safely again.
Jaroslaw
I agree with a couple comments here wholeheartedly and that this is a tempest in a teapot
1) modeling for photos does not mean you are Gay
2) Someone with internet savvy or research skills whatever , get his high school photo and put this silly rumor to rest.
3) He’s not drop dead gorgeous now, but plenty cute enough for me.

What? Has a black and white photo? Eye roll.
ErikO
It’s not the same guy.
RIGay
Oh sure, kill ANY chance we might have of have some leverage on the SCOTUS by broadcasting it loudly.
Bromancer7
Sorry, but it doesn’t look like the same guy. Maybe if we had photos of the judge from around that age to compare, but the nose is much smaller and there is a lot more space between his lip and nose. Ears and chin are both shaped differently as well.
And who does porn and uses their real name?
Dan
In my experience, people who take their hate to the next level are trying to hide something about themselves.

@Dan: Right on!

Who knows what Trump will do, he certainly has not been straight forward on the issues.

@captainburrito: Couldn’t see half of America being OK with an outspoken racist, bigot, homophobe and misogynist either but they elected that monster to be our next president so there is not much more that can be a surprise about hypocrisy being accepted as a way of life anymore.

@The_Furnace: It’s not the same guy in the porn pic as the judge.
