The father of New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand reportedly has ties to an alleged slave sex cult…

GOP senatorial candidate Chele Farley said on Monday that Gillibrand's father, Doug Rutnik, was once a lobbyist for NXIVM and its founder, Keith Raniere….

'For Kirsten Gillibrand, the self-proclaimed #MeToo Senator, to claim ignorance about a notorious sex-slave cult, in her own backyard, is simply hard to believe,' Farley said.

During the four months he was consulting for NXIVM, Doug introduced his younger [second] cousin, Gwen Bellcourt, an attorney, to the cult. Doug initially asked Gwenn to take a 5-day intensive to determine if NXVIM needed a license as an educational institution. Being bright, attractive and ambitious, Gwenn was targeted by Raniere for inclusion in the high rank of the cult…

As soon as Gwenn was indoctrinated into the cult, Raniere decided they no longer needed Rutnik. Nancy claimed Doug sexually harassed her. Raniere demanded Doug pay the entire four months of payments back. He refused. NXIVM sued him, threatening to ruin his reputation by exposing the scandal in court filings which are public record. Doug paid NXIVM $100,000 as per the terms of an out-of-court settlement…

But according to a former NXIVM insider, Sen. Gillibrand has even more family connections than Rutnik. That would be her step-mother, Gwenn Belcourt – who, according to the source, was personally targeted by NXIVM President Nancy Salzman for inclusion in the cult.
