“The obamas who offered up their first born to him as a prestige intern are suspiciously silent”

As are the Clintons.

“There will be questions for those who knew what was going on but did nothing, for the agents who dispatched would-be stars to his hotel suites when they may have understood what the cost would be and for the editors and reporters who conveniently didn’t bother to look into the tales making the rounds....”

Doesn’t this apply to the The Slimes itself? I’m sure they knew.

Yes, it applies to NYT in spades, which is what makes this so interesting.

They would NEVER NEVER NEVER have printed this unless it served an interest of theirs greater than the interests of the Clinton Crime Family.

Unless you believe the Times is a relentless searcher after truth, exposing it without fear or favor and letting the chips fall where they may - in which case, you are beyond help.

One big aspect that strikes me in his power plays with the young actresses is the sheer wilful degradation he pushes upon the women. He could get lots of willing Hollywood and model hotties (due to his money and position) he wants or pay for whores, but obviously he gets off on the power play of making young actresses degrade themselves before him. He could have pursued and “courted” Ashley Judd or others in a respectful manner (gross as that idea may be), but he preferred to simply demean and degrade them.... force them to decide whether to accept a blatant sex-for-acting-opportunity exchange. Not even a pretense of “romance” or courtship, just “come screw me now if you want the part.”

‘Dock’ is the word you want.

“They would NEVER NEVER NEVER have printed this unless it served an interest of theirs greater than the interests of the Clinton Crime Family.”

One possibility is that they’re trying to get the Rats to abandon the Klintoons.

I agree with Rush that it’s the media that runs the democrats not the other way, and the Slimes is both the chief kingmaker and policy generator.

Before this story broke Hildabeast, the great defender of women, was spouting everywhere. We haven’t heard peep from her since.

When we find out WHY the NYT is not only publishing the Weinstein story, but now following up...

Somebody's got an ax to grind that's gorgeous sure.

And this.... actress Rose McGowan has been ***rumored*** for a long time to have had {{{something quite horrible}}} happen from Harvey Weinstein in a hotel room during the Sundance Film Festival, and she seems to be working up to such an accusation online.... it was quite a few years ago but I don't know the exact year. In the mid-late '90s she was big in "independent" films so it was roughly around then.

Below is what she just tweeted TODAY (around 6 hours ago), referring to her 20-something yr old self as "hurt by a monster" -- yes she most definitely appears to be referring to Harvey Weinstein as that monster! She has been calling upon "ladies of Hollywood" to speak out against Harvey Weinstein.

Hat tip Gaijin, there's already an article out that pushes the story further. I had not seen this but had heard things from other directions....

Was Rose McGowan Trying to Warn People About Harvey Weinstein? The actress posted damning tweets back in 2016, alluding to an unnamed studio head who allegedly raped her.

"In 2016, Rose McGowan made waves when she alleged that a studio head had raped her. Using the hashtag #WhyWomenDontReport, she said she never reported the alleged crime because she was told that she could never win such a case: “A (female) criminal attorney said because I’d done a sex scene in a film I would never win against the studio head,” she wrote. McGowan added that her ex-partner sold the film she was working on to her alleged rapist’s company, and that the man’s behavior was “an open secret in Hollywood/Media.” “They shamed me while adulating my rapist,” she wrote."
