Sam Brinton, who secretly consulted to members of the Anchorage Assembly as they drafted their 2020 “Don’t Say Straight” ordinance banning counselors from helping teens troubled by sexual confusion, did not let the felony charge against him stop him from delivering at the gay “Leather Getaway” conference last week.
View the agenda for the conference here. Warning: Not for children. And remember, the internet remembers what you click on.
Presenting under the pseudonym “NuclearNerd,” Brinton delivered a seminar called “Spanking: From Calculus To Chemistry.” It was under the heading of SM, for sado-masochism. There were other categories with seminars on things like “Fisting with a Passion,” and “Fisting Fundamentals,” an activity evidently popular with gay men.
The Energy Department now refuses to tell reporters whether Brinton, who holds a “Q” level top-secret clearance pertaining to national security, continues to be paid after being charged with felony theft of a Vera Bradley brand suitcase with women’s clothing, valued at $2,325.
That theft happened in at the Minneapolis St. Paul International Airport in September, and Brinton has confessed to stealing the suitcase. Security cameras show that he tore the luggage tag off the bag before wheeling it away quickly as though it was his own. Security cameras also show him using the bag for various travel after the theft. Brinton’s next court date is Dec. 19.
Two years earlier, when former Anchorage Mayor Ethan Berkowitz had locked the city down due to the Covid pandemic, the Anchorage Assembly’s gay caucus got busy and passed an ordinance that bans counselors from engaging in what is called “conversion therapy,” which is aimed at helping people with sexual dysphoria or sexual impulse problems. The Assembly passed the ordinance while prohibiting the public from attending Assembly meetings.
During that lockdown period, some Assembly members also set up a fake email account belonging to fictitious “Tom Sconce,” so that they could illegally communicate with each other about the controversial ordinance. To this day, the Assembly has refused the public access to those emails and that fake email account, despite numerous requests. They have claimed attorney-client privilege, even though they had no contract with Brinton’s group, the Trevor Project and its attorney.
Brinton advised the Anchorage Assembly and other jurisdictions on the conversion therapy ban topic before he was hired by the Biden administration. His group, the Trevor Project, also grooms teens to adopt the sexual choices it promotes through its secretive online counseling program, which advises teens to avoid parental oversight.
Sen. John Barrasso, the senior Republican on the Senate Energy Committee, wants Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm to fire Brinton.
“Sam Brinton is on leave from DOE, and Dr. Kim Petry is performing the duties of Deputy Assistant Secretary of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition,” a DOE spokesperson told Fox News Digital this week.
The State of Minnesota complaint against Brinton includes that his gender is “UNKNOWN”:
Brinton appears to be using his federal position to continue to build his own personal brand as an advocate for the highly sexualized, gender-fluid lifestyle for which he advocates.
In the world of fetish sex, he is also known as a pup handler, who role plays with other men who pretend to be dogs. He is featured in this Metro Weekly story on the world of “pup play,” a subset of leather and bondage sex play. His role in the Biden administration has given him worldwide notoriety as a representative of the government both at home and abroad.
