The State Department and Department of Homeland Security are responding to 223 women who have worked in the national security field who are speaking out about having been victims of sexual harassment, abuse or assault or knowing others who are victims.

Women wrote in the Nov. 28 letter that they are driven out of the national security field by men who "use their power to assault at one end of the spectrum and perpetuate -- sometimes unconsciously -- environments that silence, demean, belittle or neglect women at the other."

"This is not just a problem in Hollywood, Silicon Valley, newsrooms or Congress. It is everywhere," they wrote.

The women called on the national security community, including the Department of Defense, Department of State, Department of Homeland Security and other agencies to take certain actions to reduce sexual harassment and abuse in the workplace.

This is starting to look like an organized VJ-MO play to clear the way for their people to grab the spots.
I know of one woman for sure who is actively working with SJW in Silicon Valley to kick out Men Executives.

You win the prize for catching on to the new game. There is a (white) male purging going on. It’s only just started. Yes, some non-whites will be caught up, but those are not who they are really after.

It’s getting ridiculous. Now every woman on earth is telling us the story about when she was hit on. This is like great cultural revolution stuff.
Lot of celebrating going on, but this isn’t a good thing happening.

Its a RadFem power grab designed to grind down everything masculine and make us into a place like Sweden where chicks run everything.

I think I am beginning to understand just why "NOTHING" gets done (except each other) in Washington D.C.

Well, what today? Work or Whoopie?

Somewhere upstream from culture and downstream from sexuality, a dam has burst. Of course, if no one gets punished for anything, we only got the haha from the brouhaha.

“There is a (white) male purging going on. “

John Conyers might have something to say about that. And it appears to be (white liberal) male purging.

Maybe you missed the second sentence in my post:

Yes, some non-whites will be caught up, but those are not who they are really after.

Wait till we see who paid out all that money from the sex slush fund. I’ll lay dollars to donuts the majority comes from the CBC.

I’d be nervous around 223 women. Just the same way I give 30-06 women some space too.
