Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein was so close with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that he would deliver movies to Clinton, who described Weinstein as “so sweet” to one of her aides.
Emails from Clinton’s time at the State Department reveal a glimpse into the relationship between Clinton and the producer now accused of sexually harassing or assaulting abusing dozens of women. At least three women have accused Weinstein of rape, while other victims describe being forced to watch while the film producer masturbated in front of them.
“As time moves on, I realize I haven’t seen you and Mrs. Clinton in a long time, but I think of you both often,” Weinstein wrote to Capricia Marshall, a State Department aide under Clinton, in August 2010. Clinton. He offered to send the secretary of state a copy of his new movie, “The Kings Speech,” which wouldn’t be released to the public until late November of that year.
Weinstein said he thought Clinton would like it because of its similarity to another Weinstein film, “Shakespeare in Love,” which he remembered her liking. (The star actress in that film, Gwyneth Paltrow, is one of the women accusing Weinstein of raping her.)
Weinstein signed the email, “your bad friend,” adding: “PS — Please share this with Madame Secretary.” Marshall complied, forwarding the email to Hillary Clinton.
“That is so sweet,” Clinton replied, telling Marshall to “let him know I not only want the movies, (including The Tillman Story) but I’ve heard about some of his other projects from Jamie Patricof (Company Men, Blue Valentine) that also sound great. And [please] wish him and Georgina every good wish [with] the new baby and that we all hope to see them soon.”
Weinstein’s closeness with prominent Democrats — including former presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama — has turned into a public relations nightmare for the Democratic Party.
It took five days for Clinton and Obama to release statements condemning their friend’s alleged predation of women, which was said to be an open secret in Hollywood. The Obamas hosted Weinstein at the White House in 2013 and their older daughter, Malia Obama, interned for Weinstein’s company earlier this year.
TMZ reported Thursday night that Weinstein’s contract reportedly prohibited the company from firing him for sexual harassment, as long as he reimbursed the company for lawsuits against them and paid additional damages.
Can you display two more morally evils than these two ???
Any Harveys?
He and Macaulay Culkin, another abused child star, said Michael Jackson didn't abuse them.
One picture in the book shows Feldman and Haim at the former's 15th birthday party flanked by five older men who at the time were abusing them.
Try as I may, can't seem to find that picture online. It would be interesting to see who they are.
Haim confided in his new friend that on the set of the 1986 film Lucas, 'an adult male convinced him that it was perfectly normal for older men and younger boys in the business to have sexual relations, that it was what all the guys do
Lucas was a cute movie but there was something dark about Haim that came across the screen back then before even knowing about the abuse.
Remember Grandpa Walton? He was gay and his partner, Harry Hay, once said every 14 year old boy should have a male teacher. Just what all went on up on Walton's Mountain? So sad. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Hay
“Movies” = Young actresses and cocaine. Hilbitch gots to get her freak on.
They had some outtake reel for “The Waltons” where the old creep Will “Granpa” Geer got John Boy in a pool naked and they were mooning the cast. I am not joking, either.
Geez.
Maybe I have missed segments of the H.W. scandal. But I’m wondering why now after all this time? Is it to divert from Seth Rich or something else? Or did he get Soros really, really angry?
Feminist Hillary who claims to speaks out against “toxic masculinity” and Manspreading..etc... surrounds herself with male sexual predator types and rapists.
What Happened?
I never heard about Shilly liking coke.
I bet he also delivered “movies” to Bill Clinton!
I think a perv like weinstein must like souvenirs. There has got to be video tape.
“If Webster Hubbell is Hillary’s type, then Harvey Weinstein is definitely her type. Either pig could’ve fathered Chelsea, but it looks like Hubbell’s sperm won out.”
Fair point, but Bill Clinton was barely governor of a Third World state when The Beast was inseminated. Very unlikely Weinsteen would have wasted his time with her back them.
HOW is FORCED performed oral sex possible against your will ???
‘“Movies” = Young actresses and cocaine. Hilbitch gots to get her freak on.”
“F’ing hypocrites make me sick.”
Can you imagine the “outrage” if Sweinstein was Republican? I have no doubt that “IMPEACH” would be screamed at every turn.
BTW, haven’t seen any demands that the MILLION$ of dollar$ that this thing gave to DEMOCRATS be returned.
Funny how that (doesn’t) work, huh???
Ask the dudes in prison.
Shove the person to your crotch. Slap or hit them until they comply.
Are you series?
These officers were on duty. Gimme a break. There's ZERO excuse for what they did, and they're going to get nailed to the wall, K?
They had that drug dealer friend of theirs (the name escapes me at the moment), supposedly the biggest pusher in Arkansas, who would routinely make deliveries to the Governor’s Mansion in the ‘80s.
