Media Pundit Named in Jesse Jackson Lawsuit
Tamara Holder, a Fox News contributor, is accused of having an affair with Jesse Jackson, Sr. in a lawsuit that alleges the illegal use of a gay Jackson employee to facilitate the relationship.
The accuser, Tommy R. Bennett, was Jackson’s personal travel assistant and ran the legal clinic at Jackson’s organization, the Rainbow PUSH Coalition. He says he was eventually fired for protesting his treatment by Jackson and other PUSH employees and is seeking hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages.
Holder has not responded to repeated requests for comment from Accuracy in Media, but Jackson’s press representative, Lauren Love, says the allegations are false and will be proven so.
Bennett attorney Thomas V. Leverso says that Jackson and PUSH have been stonewalling a legal response for many months but that investigations and the case are moving forward. Leverso tells Accuracy in Media that witnesses have come forward to verify the allegations against Jackson.
Jackson, a minister and Democratic politician who served as an aide to Martin Luther King, Jr., suffered a major embarrassment in 2010 when he admitted to an extramarital affair that produced an illegitimate child.
Bennett worked for Jackson for more than two years and was known as “Aruba Tommy” on local Chicago radio station WVON. The lawsuit alleges that Bennett was subjected to “humiliating tasks” because he was a homosexual, such as “escorting women to his [Jackson’s] hotel room” and then being ordered to clean up after Jackson had sexual intercourse with them.
One of those women, the suit claims, was Tamara Holder, a pundit and criminal defense attorney who claims she “single-handedly” founded what she calls “a pro bono legal clinic at Rev. Jesse L. Jackson’s Rainbow PUSH Coalition.”

I swear, Hannity is somebody I admire....I'll always respect and admire that he chewed that Rev. Wright “chickens coming home to roost” like a dog with a bone...But he is too nice to some of the left wing fools like this dope and...hmmm...what's his name...Oh....Lamont Hill? Dr. Lamont Hill! Such idiots. They talk real fast and say nothing.
Sean...I don't know who is better on the Left in the talk show circuit...but PLEASE CUT THESE FOOLS OFF.
Jesse just can’t keep his pants on
Can’t stand Tamara Holder OR Lamont Hill. Turn off the TV whenever they appear!
I imagine all the late night comedians are going to be making jokes about this for months < /sarcasm >.
Bob Beckel is another Dem fool who uses jokes and personal attacks in response to the opposition. You nailed it by suggesting “DR.” Lamont Hill as a possible tryst candidate for Tamara.. She’s probably ‘done’ him too. Perhaps she is related to Eric Holder.. It’s in her blood!
I have always wondered....what makes this yutz eligible to be called “reverend”? Did he graduate from the Close Cover Before Striking School of Ministry and Heavy Machinery?
OK, just one more. Ready?
Gee, she doesn’t look like a Kardashian.
Just a little joke. Don’t want to upset BOR and Kanye West.
Now you know why Jackson created Operation Breadbasket (his paycheck), then Operation PUSH (for pushing women down under him). Next came the Rainbow Coalition, which meant that he hit on women of every color. At least he didn’t discriminate. White and Black cookies; Ebony and Ivory; Ying and her sister Yang; Piano keys.
This is going to be good. Holder is a total airhead and even a bag wouldn’t solve her problem.
Just in case inquiring minds want more sordid details about JJ...

2) Did they buy it from Target for $9 / month or did they have to shell out $3000/yr like Sandra "I am the 69%" Fluke?
Cheers!
Yes.
There’s an article penned by “Ms. Tamara” on huffpo. It’s dated June 9, 2010. She went on and on and on defending JJ.
Her title for her article:
“The Blagojevich Trial Begins — So Should The Clearing of Congressman Jesse Jackson, Jr.’s Name”
Isn’t that “special”.
Classic dirty deeds done dirt cheap.
If Sean can get through another of her appearances on his show without a facepalm I’ll be very impressed.
Tommy R. Bennett, aka “Aruba Tommy”, who’s sexual orientation is well known, the lawsuit claims, based on his appearances on syndicated radio show “The Tom Joyner Morning Show, says he worked in three positions for the Rainbow Push Coalition, from July 2007 until Dec. 23, 2009....
Given the gay sex and harassment allegations, the imagination runs wild
LOL
