"....A Star Tribune reporter went to Monahan’s apartment on Sunday and spoke through a call-box to a woman who said she was Karen Monahan. She said she was not ready to talk and was focused on her children and family. “This is a really difficult time,” she said."

The article sited listed multiple DFL (that's the state DemonRats) folks defending Ellison and casting doubt on the lady's story, even though she has been talking about it for weeks.
"....A search of court records found no reports of any incidents between Monahan and Ellison.
Monahan, who is an organizer for the Sierra Club, has made numerous Twitter posts in recent weeks about being in an abusive relationship, and more broadly about the MeToo movement; but before Saturday, she never identified Ellison in those posts.
In one tweet, she said: “I was physically abused, emotional and psychological and sexually manipulated by this man. I am not the first woman he has done this to and I wasn’t the last.”
The “me too” movement is going to make many of these abused women over-confident.
Some lefty politicians are not going to play fair..especially if they believe the MSM has their back.
I wonder what Al (”but I didn’t even finish copping a feel!”) Franken makes of the Star & Sickle’s response to this?
