You might not recognize the name “Joel Searby” and really, who could blame you? Searby is just another popular GOP strategist, working tirelessly behind the scenes to prop up establishment politicians at a time when the GOP's old guard is being lambasted at a breathtaking rate. To show just how off-base and clueless this Searby guy is, he was the “Chief Strategist” for none other than Evan McMullin — a former CIA ghost and staunch Trump-hater who made a small sprinkled with his dignified failure. Presidential candidacy in 2016.
Trump's lewd tape appears to be undermining his standing among social conservatives, nowhere more than in Utah, where the Mormon faith rules and tolerance of the latest revelation of Trump's lewdness has strained his already strained relationship with Republicans in the state pass the breaking point. That, combined with broad rejection of Hillary Clinton, is good news for McMullin.
You may remember Evan, who was often referred to as an “Egg McMuffin.”
Turns out, Politico was dead wrong. It was not good news for McMullin. He still lost his home state of Utah in a landslide.
But this is McMullin's moment and his team hopes to consolidate support from the state GOP.
“We're talking to almost every key leader in Utah,” said McMullin's chief campaign strategist, Joel Searby. “We've had direct communication with every leader in Utah who either didn't support Trump previously or hasn't since supported Trump. Every single one.”
McMullin has yet to be endorsed by any of Utah's elected Republicans, but several state strategists and operatives said they may come out in support of the conservative initiative in the coming days.
Evan and Searby's goal was to stop Trump in his tracks by winning Utah. But this plan was a total failure, because even with the behind-the-scenes support of their “good friend” Mitt Romney, Evan and the propaganda media, they could not achieve a victory in the Mormon state.
pathetic
Now, it has come to light that Mr. Searby, the self-proclaimed “family man” and “strategy man” of the establishment has been arrested in Florida for allegedly soliciting sex with a teenager, and the evidence that the police have on this boy is extreme. damning
Also, it probably won't surprise you to know that Mr. Searby was connected to the Lincoln Project, another group of GOP strategists with Stage 5 TDS.
Hello, @TheRickWilson, another of your good friends has just been arrested for soliciting sex with a teenager. Wondering if you'd like to comment on this? pic.twitter.com/q4sTfip1H0

The Lincoln Project fell off its high horse after one of its founding members faced accusations of soliciting young men. A pattern seems to be emerging among these types of so-called establishments. In 2023, Joel Searby took to Substack to write a “Daily Dear Style” blog detailing his quest to find an alternative candidate in 2016. In his piece, he surprisingly calls the now-disgraced Project Lincoln a “brave”.
Joel, a sick old man, really admired the perverted channels of the Lincoln Project.
At the time of this post, Joel's post had only managed to garner six retweets. He never set the internet on fire, except now, thanks to his charges.
Then there was a small and brave faction of conservatives who did not support Trump. Bill Kristol, Rick Wilson, John Kingston, Bill Wichterman, David French, Pete Wehner, Quin Hillyer and so many others affectionately known as the “Never Trumpers”. Robert Saldin and Steve Teles have since written a book about this crew that includes the story I tell here: It's called Never Trump: The Revolt of the Conservative Elites. You can grab it here if you want.
I researched all I could about these people, not knowing any of them personally at the time. I also made my own lists of candidates who I thought could pull it off. At the top of that list, for me, was Condoleeza Rice. I convinced the owner of my company to give me a budget to do a poll in a few states to test Rice (and a few others) against Trump and Clinton. What I found surprised me. Rice, as an independent, was winning in Texas and some other states. I thought maybe I was on to something, but I didn't know what to do with this information.
Also, here's Joel in 2023 calling out so-called “right-wing extremism” and “election deniers.” Notice how it doesn't call out pedophiles.

Now, Joel Searby will likely have plenty of time to rethink his establishment strategies as he cools his heels in a jail cell for allegedly trying to hook up with a young boy. To add insult to injury, Searby sat on the board of Newberry Education First. No wonder he wanted a position so close to the little kids.
An Alachua County judge ordered a Newberry Education First board member held without bail at an initial appearance hearing Friday morning.
Joel Searby, 43, was booked into the Alachua County Jail Thursday on charges of lewd and lascivious behavior, communication to entice a minor, communication to travel to meet a minor and use a communication device to commit a felony . According to the arrest report, he solicited a minor for sex on Snapchat.
Searby was one of the people who led the charge to try to convert Newberry Public Schools to charter schools.
The Alachua County Sheriff's Office arrest report transcribes a conversation that began Wednesday between Searby and the victim on the Snapchat messaging app. In the message thread, Searby asked the 15-year-old if he's ever had a crush on an older man and then described a sexual encounter he had as a teenager with an adult man.
As we mentioned earlier, the evidence against Searby is overwhelming. The WCJB piece continues:
Searby sent the boy several photos of himself with his face blackened, including a photo of his hand in his pants. He then invited the boy to visit his house the next morning, secretly.
He suggested that the victim should run away and go to Searby's guest house. He would send the boy a text message asking him to go help with the yard work as an excuse for his parents.
“The evidence is pretty damning and it scares me as a parent,” said parent Brandy Oldman.
On Thursday morning, law enforcement took over the boy's account and continued the conversation with Searby. He confirmed the meeting was for “yard work” and a detective posing as the victim asked if they were “making out” or something else.
Searby responded to the victim's account: “I'd like to do more, but we can take it step by step and if I start doing something you don't want, we can stop. I'll walk you through it.”
Detectives then executed a search warrant at Searby's home on Southwest 170th Street and he was arrested. Searby invoked his right to remain silent. He was booked into the Alachua County Jail and his bond has not yet been set.
What is truly alarming is that this potential monster was not only on the school board; He was also a pastor and basketball coach. How many victims could there be out there that haven't come forward yet? It is likely to be much more. We'd like to know what Evan McMullin thinks about his colleague's arrest. After all, he was so “disgusted” by Trump's Access Hollywood tape, he even called Trump “inhuman.” Someone should put a microphone and camera in Evan's face and ask him how “human” Mr. Searby. Unfortunately, since we have a regime-run media outlet, don't expect them to call one of their own. This story, like all the others that paint the uniparty in a bad light, will simply disappear down a deep black hole.
