The Democratic and legacy media mantra that every alleged victim must be deemed credible and heard seems to have one big exception to that rule. It does not apply if you are a Democrat as evidenced by the reaction of the Democratic National Committee to the credible charges of abuse leveled against Rep. Keith Ellison, deputy DNC chair and candidate for Minnesota attorney general:
The woman who accused Minnesota Democratic Rep. Keith Ellison of domestic abuse said on Monday that Democrats dont believe her story and threatened to isolate her over the allegations.Let us be kind and for a fleeting moment say the DNC was giving Keith Ellison the presumption of innocence and granting him the right to confront his accuser, both things being denied Judge Kavanaugh. Okay, that moment has passed. Compare Karen Monhans specific charges and actions to Christine Blasey Fords 36-year-old recovered memory which fails to include little details like just when Kavanaughs assault occurred, just where it occurred, how she got there and just who was in the room at the time.Karen Monahan, a former girlfriend, came forward last month alleging that Ellison sent her threatening text messages and once screamed obscenities at her as he dragged her off a bed by her feet.
Monahan slammed the Democratic Party for its response to her allegations when compared to its treatment of Christine Blasey Ford. Ford has accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of attempting to force himself onto her during at a high school party nearly four decades ago, prompting prominent Democrats to get behind Fords allegations.
No, they don't, Monahan tweeted in response to a question whether the party believes womens stories. I've been smeared, threatened, isolated from my own party. I provided medical records from 2017, stating on two different Dr. Visits, I told them about the abuse and who did it. My therapist released records stating I have been dealing and healing from the abuse.
She added: Four people, including my supervisor at the time, stated that I came to them after and shared the exact story I shared publicly, I shared multiple text between me and Keith, where I discuss the abuse with him and much more. As I said before, I knew I wouldn't be believed.
A mid-August news report details another credible charge against Ellison:
This is the second time Ellison has been publicly accused of domestic violence. Another woman, Amy Louise Alexander, spoke out in 2006, going public with her account that Ellison verbally abused her while they were having an affair. She also said he grabbed and pushed her during an argument.When it comes to Democrats the so-called #metoo movement becomes a #meneither movement dismissing out of hand any accusations against a Democrat. Again, in the second incident we have documentation in the form of a 911 call:
Amy Alexander claimed that Ellison had abused her during a 2005 relationship in a 2006 article published in The Wright County Republican and blogger Laura Loomer uncovered documentation of a 911 call.Ellison gets a break where Kavanugh is guilty until proven innocent largely because Kavanaugh is an originalist who would interpret the Constitution as written according to the intentions of those who wrote it in the context of the times it was written in. His accusers famous politically 2012 therapy occurred just as Mitt Romney appeared he just might win and likely appoint Kavanaugh himself. That didnt happen, and Christine Blast Ford went back into hibernation, as Peter Strzok might put it, an insurance policy.Alexander said in the article that she began seeing Ellison in 1993, while he was still married, and that the relationship eventually went downhill, which prompted her to move out of state.
They would cross paths again in 2004, but the relationship came to a quick end in May 2005 thats when Alexander said Ellison showed up at her house uninvited and assaulted her.
In May, Keith wanted to try and quiet me so he came to my home uninvited, wrote Alexander. We had words. His anger kicked in. He berated me. He grabbed me and pushed me out of the way. I was terrified. I called the police. As he fled he broke my screen door. I have never been so scared.
As Loomer noted, the callers name on the 911 report has been redacted, but she said a records search under the name of Amy Alexander shows that Alexander lived at the address on the report: 1403 Washington St NE, Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Too bad we're the only ones who care.
“...Romney appeared he just might win.”
Funny, I don’t remember a time when this would be true.
Democrats’ Warbon Women continues
A culture of corruption that rises to the top ranks of the Democrat Party
The issue is never the issue
So you’re using Jews now to get hits for your blog?
Grassley should call Ellison as a witness in the Kavanaugh hearings. He could give some perspective on what real abuse is.
How's he "using Jews" ?
Expecting any kind of integrity from the left is an incompetence.
Look right now I dont care about the hypocrisy Rats are immune to charges of hypocrisy. Keep the Monday deadline hold the vote damn it.
Agreed.
Accusations of hypocrisy against leftists gain nothing for no one.
Anyone who already doesn’t know that the left is made up of idiots and pathological liars isn’t worth spending any time discussing the political situation with.
They’re Low Info Voters and will vote however the TV tells them to, if they vote at all. Nothing will change that, short of death.
She has actual evidence of Ellison’s transgressions, which is completely lacking in the case of Kavanaugh.
I though that until I started watching #walkaway videos on Youtube.
People are waking up to the propaganda.
A mentally DISintegrated mind-as has Ellison, drives a greater agenda. Elitist totalitarians will never question.
Those are the people capable of thinking but haven’t gotten around to it until recently.
But...
They can walk away but they won’t change their stripes. They’ll still fall in line and agitate for and support the same kinds of policies and practices that have done so much harm to our communities and country already.
They’ll just do it under another party name. Many of them from the RNC name. Which they’ll work hard to turn into the same degenerate crap they “walked away” from.
