Conyers Fired Staffer for Refusing His Sexual Advances
BuzzFeed.com ^ | Nov 20th, 2017 | Paul McLeod

Posted on 11/20/2017 7:04:54 PM PST by gaijin

Michigan Rep. John Conyers, a Democrat and the longest-serving member of the House of Representatives, settled a wrongful dismissal complaint in 2015 with a former employee who alleged she was fired because she would not “succumb to [his] sexual advances.”

Documents from the complaint obtained by BuzzFeed News include four signed affidavits, three of which are notarized, from former staff members who allege that Conyers, the ranking Democrat on the powerful House Judiciary Committee, repeatedly made sexual advances to female staff that included requests for sexual favors, contacting and transporting other women with whom they believed Conyers was having affairs, caressing their hands sexually, and rubbing their legs and backs in public. Four people involved with the case verified the documents are authentic.

So the correct way to do this to cause maximum chaos with the intent of creating a CNTL - ALT - DELETE reboot of Congress — complete overturn of the establishment — is drip drip drip.

Have a new name come out every couple of days. You’ll see members of Congress announcing retirement - and have already. You’ll see them completely unable to function - and counter Trump - as they’ll be creating their own crisis teams to prepare for The Storm.

The Storm will consume Washington D.C. and Hollywood and all enemies of Trump. They will run in fear.

Senior members of committees who have roadblocked Trump will be the first list. A top name RINO will be within the first five released as well.

This will reshape D.C. This is The Storm!

I wonder if Conyers talked smack about Clarence Thomas during his confirmation timeline.

Don’t forget that Paul Ryan was Speaker and complicit in the cover up of this.

Notice that all this has been known for a long time.

It shows the direct corruption of the media. Only after a blogger/investigative reporter found a way to get it out around the old media, has it been reported to the public.

The same thing with Weinstein, in a slightly different fashion. Only an independent reporter who was rebuffed by their own organization got it out in another publication.

Decades of covering up for anyone on the left, with rare counter examples of leftists that they wanted to get rid of.

It shows how we have been sold out for decades.

I will just say I am not surprised one bit by the news. I would also bet this is just the tip of the iceberg.

The ‘Hill’ left out the part where lying Ryan supposedly covered up for Con-yers. That part is really ‘rich’ given the purity of lying Ryan, working for sainthood. Remember he attempted to dump Trump when the bush mite outed Trump for describing how some women acted with celebrities?
