New York Democratic Congressional Candidate Chris Gallant Once Appeared In Hardcore Pornographic Photos For Mr. S Leather

Voters in New York’s 1st Congressional District could make history this November if they elect 37-year-old openly gay Democrat and Army veteran Chris Gallant, as he’d become the first member of congress to have appeared in hardcore pornographic ads for Mr. S Leather in San Francisco. Beat that, Pete Buttigieg.

Over the weekend, reporter Ryan King—who seems kind of gay himself? maybe that aided his investigation—from the right-wing New York Post exposed Gallant’s past as a BDSM model in the early 2010’s (Gallant is getting his cock sucked by another man in the photo above), as seen here:

It’s not clear when exactly the Mr. S photos were taken, but they first appeared online in 2011, so they were presumably taken that year or the year before.

A representative for Gallant told the Post that “the photographs are authentic and were taken during a private, consensual photo session involving Chris and his then-partner, with whom he was in a committed four-year relationship.” She added, “The shoot was intended to be fun and personal, with the understanding that Mr. S could use select images in connection with certain products.”

Gallant is the one with the shaved head in the Mr. S photos, as seen below.

Gallant, who’s running to unseat Republican Nick LaLota in a solid Republican district, is an Army veteran, National Guardsman, former air traffic controller, volunteer firefighter, and clearly extremely f*cking hot, and given the photos were just unearthed yesterday, it’s not yet known how they might affect his chances. NY-01, which includes most of eastern Long Island, voted for Trump in 2024 (he received 54% of the vote) and current Rep. LaLota in 2022 and 2024, who won by about 10 points each time.

Here was Gallant with Jake Tapper back in November of 2025, shortly after announcing his candidacy:

Gallant is clearly qualified to be a congressman—if not over absurdly over-qualified, given the clown car shitshow full of wife beaters, pedophiles, adulterers, conmen, rapists, white supremacists, grifters, thieves, and war criminals holding elected office in Washington D.C.—and the fact that he explored his sexuality in an obviously consensual and legal manner over 15 years ago should be a non-issue for anyone with even a semi-functioning brain. Sadly, most American voters don’t have one of those.

Gallant, seen below in 2007, only had about a 29% chance of winning before the Post story. The election will be held on November 3rd.
