To draw attention to the election programme
American politician publishes pornography of himself
With a porn video, an American politician wants to clarify his position on a more liberal approach to sex. The fact that the video now appears of all time is no accident.

An American politician goes on an election campaign with a porn video and makes his election program accessible.
Shortly before the congressional elections, the American politician Mike Itkis (53) caused a stir with a special campaign. He publishes a pornography of himself on the Internet to emphasize his “sex-positive commitment”, according to his own statements.
According to his website, Itkis, who is running for the 12th District in New York, is a pro-legal advocate for sex work and abortion rights that were overturned by the US Supreme Court a few months ago. He wanted to underline this commitment with the 13-minute clip, the politician told City and State New York. “Just talking about it doesn’t mean I’m really committed to it,” says Itikis. “Making the video was an educational experience and also influenced my views on certain topics.”
Army veteran is behind rivals
According to his own statement, the video with porn actress Nicole Sage (28) is Itkis’ first video in front of the camera. “I don’t really like being the center of attention. I would rather describe myself as an introverted nerd. But I have no children, am single and an atheist and fight for sexual rights. In our state of New York, sex work is still a criminal act. This is not acceptable.”
According to her own statements, porn actress Sage knew about the purpose of the video and supports Itki’s political work.
Itkis is a non-partisan politician who formerly served in the US Army. He was born in the Ukrainian city of Odessa. At the age of 10, he moved with his family to New York, where he has lived ever since. Among other things, he worked as an IT expert at the technology giant IBM.
With the video, Itkis should heat up his own election campaign again. The non-party politician is currently trailing his opponent Jerry Nadler. With the new video, Itkis should have brought himself back into the conversation. (sigh)
