What? Trump is acting like secret courts executing secret law where you don’t have a right to any representation is Un-American or something. Or that the government claiming a right to seize and store every word written isn’t American as apple pie...... It must be in the federalist papers somewhere.

There isn’t any due process for those who are not in a government-certified victim group. The accused male is automatically guilty, and is made to resign. The accuser knows that she will never be held accountable for her lies, and that the accused can never bring her to justice.

If you violate any norm of political correctness, and you’re not in a privileged group, you’re gone, done, toast. You have no recourse, no defense.

#MeToo is getting out of hand, but remember in terms of your employment there is little or no “due process”.

The behavior leading to the creation of the #MeToo issue is a form of corruption. Stigmatized and salacious corruption it is true, but corruption nonetheless. It needs to be investigated and prosecuted as such. There needs to be due process as well as penalties for bad behavior (instead of promotions and other rewards which believe it or not, is the norm).

If this issue is treated in this manner it will bring needed certainty to what constitutes a prosecutable offense and what does not. It will calm the whole thing the heck down. It will increase the business friendliness of the environment (since corruption is not conducive to that).

People should not be fired on an accusation. The alleged victim should be protected and the alleged perp should no longer have contact with them without punishing either party until a determination is made about what happened exactly.

The Democrats want this to be weaponized because they want to remove Republicans from jobs in Washington and fill them with Democrats instead.

It's been a while since I read up about contract law and I am not a lawyer.

However, my recollection is that one cannot make an enforceable contract which obligates a person to violate the law nor can one make such a contract which affords one party the consideration of another performing a legal obligation.

A broad definition of prostitution would include any act which trades sexual gratification for some other valuable consideration.

One might make the claim that starlets who agree to provide sexual favors to Weinstein in return for career advancement are prostituting themselves and that the recipient is guilty of soliciting prostitution.

With such a broad understanding of "prostitution" then those who contract with Weinstein to satisfy claims on behalf of Weinstein would be contracting to financially cover the consequences of law-breaking.

I still fail to see how feminists who support abortion as an act which is protected by issues of privacy don't also view prostitution as a a similar act. Consistency seems to be an under-valued attribute.

We are a society of capricious law that is made up and applied on the fly.

Especially old allegations. This is getting out of hand.

FBI has turned law enforcement into lawless enforcement.

Inevitably, the rotten head will infect the whole body. It evokes a sense of desperation when pundits, many whom I respect, are very quick to mention that it’s only the few in leadership (i.e. the “suits”) that are too blame.

Government bureaucrats, top to bottom, are a pack of rats.

Uranium One, then Comey’s under-something just retired (# XX of FBI people jumping ship), and the MSM focuses on Trump “supporting” a staffer who was ACCUSED of battery.

Trump was ACCUSED of RAPE by his former wife. After the divorce proceeding and a profitable outcome (?), ex-wife walked it back.

If Trump’s refuses to identify someone as guilty before trial, that would be against our constitution (innocent until proven guilty). I am so sick and tired of women accusing men of assault/rape for profit or politics. And I am a woman.

Remember when some bimbo reporter accused Corey Lewandowski of ‘throwing her to the ground’.... and hitting her?

She was lying.

THANK GOD the hotel was video taping all public rooms and there was proof the bimbo reporter was lying ...

There are abuses on both sides... that's WHY we need to shore up the rule of law - not abandon it.

One of the reasons Weinstein got away with his abuse of women as long as he did was BECAUSE he was a liberal...or as he would say, if caught, he would just pick a fight with the NRA. The 'court of public opinion' is NOT the place to deal with these types of wrong. Too easily manipulated by 'elites' like Hollywood filth.

Lewandowski lucked out. THANK GOD the hotel was video taping all public rooms and there was proof the bimbo reporter was making it up. Not all men are that lucky. Or women. People can lie against women too - like Clinton was trying to do against Monica and Paula. Shore up access to the Court System... send illegals home so they don't clog up our courts... and use courts to set knowable standards.
