What Is The ‘Sex Cult’ That Kirsten Gillibrand’s Father Allegedly Lobbied For?

The NXIVM scandal has resurfaced after documents showed that the father of presidential candidate and Democratic New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand lobbied four months in 2004 for the group which has been described as a “sex cult,” according to a report.

The organization was founded as a “self-help” group before ceasing operations last year, after high-ranking members of the group were arrested on charges of sex trafficking and forced labor.

Big League Politics obtained court documents appearing to show that Gillibrand’s father, Doug Rutnik, worked for the organization for four months in 2004 at a monthly rate of $25,000. Fox News, The Washington Free Beacon and Slate all previously reported on Gillibrand’s father and his work. An unnamed source also reportedly told Big League Politics that Gillibrand once sat at an NXIVM table at a fundraising event for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

The group’s co-founder, Nancy Salzman, pleaded guilty on a racketeering charge last month. Salzman and fellow co-founder, Keith Raniere, were known as “Prefect” and “Vanguard,” respectively, by the women the group allegedly trafficked and even branded.

Raniere is currently facing a wide range of charges for his alleged involvement, including sex trafficking and child pornography. He faces 15 years to life in prison if found guilty. And, on Monday, disgraced “Smallville” actress Allison Mack pleaded guilty for her role in the case and now faces up to 20 years in prison.

“I must take full responsibility for my conduct. I am very sorry for my role in this case. I am very sorry to my family and to the good people I hurt through my misguided adherence to Keith Raniere’s teachings,” Mack said Monday, according to Page Six.

While the exact nature of the organization was not fully known before its downfall a year ago, it had received criticism years prior. A 2003 story from Forbes quotes the father of Clare Bronfman, the organization’s main funder, calling NXIVM a “cult:”

My reply to anything she says from here on out...especially if she starts in on sexual assault/harassment in the military...will be "NXIVM"

Some senior democrat recently referred to their "circular firing squad."

It appears plenty of oppo research is coming out.

These people are the democrats of today, not of yesteryear.

Over twenty of them, and still adding. I say draft Bob Kerrey.

I think sex cults are cooler than death cults like Heaven's Gate or QAnon.

"Gillibrand’s father, Doug Rutnik, worked for the organization for four months in 2004 ...."

I despise Gillibrand.  She's a dangerous idiot.  But, this is somehow a story?  Her father and four months in 2004?
