Everybody Knew About Harvey (Long Article)

RUSH: Let me ask you a question. Do you think a major conservative Republican fat cat donor would have been able to keep secret eight different sexual harassment settlements? You think they would have been able to keep that out of the media for decades? Just remember what all has happened at Fox News in recent years and compare that to what’s happening here with Harvey Weinstein of Weinstein Pictures and prior to that Miramax. It’s astounding to look at two comparisons.

It ought not be astounding because we all ought to know by now, but the thing that makes it different, everybody apparently knew about Harvey Weinstein. Everybody that worked with him, everybody that took money from him, everybody that palled around with him all throughout Hollywood, everybody knew. Whenever we have news reports about some executive at Fox News, sexual harassment, it’s a shock and it’s a stunner and we never knew and nobody had any idea and it’s still not conclusive.

And yet those people are made to walk the plank. And here Harvey Weinstein gets to apologize and promise everybody he’s gonna double down going after the NRA, as though that is gonna buy him some leniency. And it will, folks. You remain loyal to the cause on the left and they’ll tolerate anything. But how transparent. I saw this yesterday afternoon, and I just started laughing out loud. Harvey Weinstein issues whatever apologies. (imitating Weinstein) “You know, I came from the sixties. You got away with a lot more back in the sixties.” Harvey, I came from the sixties, too, and I remember when the feminazis started taking over in the late sixties and early seventies, and so do you, pal. You just ignored ’em and didn’t have anything to do with ’em, and everybody knew. That’s the thing here.

The New York Times has known about this for years. What triggered this, folks? Why all of a sudden now is the New York Times breaking the seal on this? Something had to happen to cause it. But Harvey, I want to give you some advice here, buddy. I never met Harvey. But you’re playing this all wrong. Apologizing and promising to bury Wayne LaPierre and all that, that isn’t what do, Harvey. You need to get the neck brace.

You learn from Ted Kennedy, you get the neck brace, fake an auto accident or something, but get a neck break on there as quickly as you can. And then you learn from Bill Clinton, have a meeting with Jesse Jackson and walk around with the Torah. He’s Jewish, so the Bible won’t work. But walk around with a religious book. That’s how Bill Clinton did it. Meeting with Jesse Jackson. Ted Kennedy, of course, with the neck brace.

You know, somebody needs to ask Michelle Obama about a woman running for president who takes money from a serial abuser and sexual harasser like Harvey Weinstein. Remember, folks, everybody knew about it. Everybody knew about his behavior. The women involved were all talking. People at the Weinstein Company knew, everybody knew. And in fact, if you have any experience reading gossip columns, particularly New York Post Page Six, the stories of what a boorish man Harvey Weinstein is are frequent and legion.

Not a nice guy. Very intimidating person. A lot of people scared to death, particularly young budding actresses and anybody else who wants to become anything in the movie business, scared to death. Harvey Weinstein scared nurses when he was in the hospital to try to quit smoking. He was a brute. You know what? Harvey Weinstein is as close to the prototype that young college women are being taught about men today as anybody you could come up with in public life. Young college women are being taught that men are predators, rape stories in all these leftist publications.

Turned out not to be true, but you know how women are being taught, young college age women, men are brutes, men are predators, men beat women, men mistreat women. You have to shield your own kids from the father because the father is an uncontrolled just barely, barely out of the cave. Harvey Weinstein comes as close to epitomizing what the left is trying to convince women men are of anybody that I know. And everybody knew it.

Now, what does that mean? When Hillary Clinton, when Bill Clinton took Harvey Weinstein — and, by the way, you know, there’s all kinds of White House log information about how many times Harvey Weinstein visited the Obama White House. Folks, Harvey Weinstein was at the White House frequently when Bill Clinton was there and when Obama was there. He was tight, he was tight with Democrat presidents, tight with the Democrat Party, a major donor, a major fundraiser. He threw parties for these people constantly.

What I’d like to see are how many trips to Chappaqua did Harvey Weinstein make when Hillary was not there but Bill was. There are a lot of people that are in that man group. I’m not gonna mention any names, but there are a lot of people in the Bill Clinton — what do you call it — posse that are I think breathing rather dangerously and nervously because Weinstein might have been in and out of that posse now and then. And if people are looking into Weinstein, who knows who else and what else they’re going to find, because everybody knew it, folks.

That remains the major point of this. Everybody knew it, which makes them the biggest hypocrites on the face of the earth. All of these holier-than-thou social justice warriors preaching about sexual harassment, all of these female lawyers that are now lining up to represent Harvey, like Lisa Bloom, the daughter of Gloria Allred. The hypocrisy here is just dripping right off your TV screen, it is so thick.

So Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama take Harvey Weinstein’s money. She remained associated with him, and she knew this was going on. Of course, Hillary is not really a virgin in all this ’cause she knew about her own husband’s similar escapades. But the point is that Hillary Clinton remains silent. Will she try to now say that the vast right-wing conspiracy was also trying to nail Harvey Weinstein along with her husband? The vast right-wing conspiracy didn’t know who Harvey Weinstein was. The donor community does, but outside that very few do.

Did Hillary betray her gender, ladies and gentlemen? Did Hillary betray feminism here? Did Michelle (My Belle) Obama betray it? Did Barack Obama betray it here? Should the money that Weinstein donated be returned because it’s now filthy? Should Hillary go to the microphones and the cameras and say she didn’t know, “I had no idea, just like I didn’t know about Benghazi. I had no idea. I’m ashamed, I’m embarrassed, and I’m returning the money.” Don’t hold your breath.

And it might become awkward for Michelle (My Belle) because her husband took money from Harvey too. But that doesn’t matter because Michelle Obama is the voice of reason. That’s what we’re told. Should the money be returned? They all knew. I’m thinking of the outrage at Cam Newton yesterday versus everybody trying to cover their tracks, “Hey, hey, hey, yeah, it’s bad, it’s bad but, you know, Harvey understands that now, and Harvey’s on the road to rehab. Harvey gets it, and he’s working hard here.”

That’s the line coming out of the pro-Harvey camp. Cam Newton, they didn’t just make this guy apologize, they made Cam Newton grovel yesterday. And he did, very well. Snerdley, did you watch the football game last night, the Patriots and Buccaneers? Nor did I, but I happened to see a segment from the halftime show, Deion Sanders, who could teach these Democrats a lot about backpedaling, by the way. I mean, that’s what you have to do as a cornerback.

Deion Sanders and Bill Cowher, the former coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. And Deion was (paraphrasing), “Okay, he apologized. He gets it, let’s move on.” Bill Cowher, “Oh, no, it isn’t that easy. Words don’t mean anything. We need to watch his behavior going on. Actions speak louder than words. I’m not impressed with what he said.” This is after Cam Newton groveled. We have the audio sound bites coming up.

So Hollywood blacklists conservatives that they consider to be misogynists while promoting and protecting Harvey Weinstein and his ilk. Hollywood as the home for great pretenders is a place where Harvey Weinstein would fit right in. But look, Hollywood lectures everybody else while acting as a sanctuary city for misogynist feminists. It is. Hollywood is a sanctuary city for every reprobate leftist there is.

How about Roman Polanski, who has been convicted of rape, and he’s still accepted into the Hollywood community because of his immense talents behind the camera. Hillary Rodham Clinton, a feminist fraud if there ever was one, thought Hollywood would lift her across the finish line last November. Most Democrat candidates do. Instead of, Hollywood was an anchor, Hollywood was the equivalent of a cement swimsuit for Hillary Clinton.

You know, most of us get the difference between the fiction Hollywood creates and who the creators are as people. We’re not as stupid as 95% of them think. So we know the Hollywood left will back up, will fund and promote left-wing political organizations, and they will have the back of left-wing social reprobates when it is necessary.

But I still come back to the fact that everybody knew — and when I say “everybody,” I’m talking about other power brokers in Hollywood, male and female. I’m talking about all the politicians that Weinstein palled around with and donated money to. They all knew. They all took his monies. They all accepted his invitations. They invited him. There’s a word for that: enabler. There’s another word for that: complicit.

How many women were sexually harassed or assaulted because nobody spoke up the past eight years or however many years, maybe decades, it’s been? And we’re not talking about Cam Newton disrespectful. We’re talking about the sexual harassment of the highest order. A powerful man with total leverage over younger, ambitious women in the workplace. Very much like Bill Clinton’s behavior while governor and president.

If Washington is a swamp, Hollywood is a cesspool. And Harvey Weinstein joins some special company. A Hall of Fame, if you will, of male Democrat feminists, Ted Kennedy, Bill Clinton, Bill Cosby, Carlos Danger, and now Harvey Weinstein.

Everybody knew, folks. They could have stopped it decades ago. How many people are complicit here? It’s no wonder Ashley Judd’s a mess. It is no wonder. It’s because of Harvey Weinstein. A fellow Democrat abused her. She was abused as a child by one of her mother’s boyfriends. She was abused by an older man who lived in her town. She’s almost as cheated on and abused as Hillary Clinton is. No, not quite, Hillary still holds the record there, but, for crying out loud. This kind of explains a little bit why Ashley Judd has this visceral reaction that she has to Trump because of what she thinks Trump is.

Trump can’t hold a candle to any of this. None of us can. There was a tweet from one of the Hollywood actresses, Brooklyn Decker, and this makes some sense. She says we condemn Trump saying, you know, where he grabs women, the Hollywood, the NBC Access Hollywood video, we condemn that and we condone Harvey Weinstein? That’s exactly right. Remember how they all went ape excrement over the Access Hollywood video, and now they’re all trying to cover for Harvey. They’re saying this is unacceptable, but they’re still scared of the guy, they’re still trying to find ways to accommodate this, not hold him to account.

And Lisa Bloom, the daughter of Gloria Allred who routinely appears with lines and lines of serially abused women suing somebody, Lisa Bloom is having one of her books adapted by Harvey Weinstein. Harvey Weinstein’s adapting her book and putting it on film.

Don’t you just love this? The daughter of Gloria Allred, in an attempt to help Hillary be elected, represented, dug out, and told ’em what to say in front of cameras numerous women who said that Trump had harassed them, all cases that went nowhere. Now her daughter, also harassment attorney, is supporting Harvey, who has well documented settlements of harassments going on 30 years.

Meanwhile, Jay Z, the husband of Beyonce, and Harvey are producing Lisa Bloom’s series on Trayvon Martin! What a cluster! Let’s go to the audio sound bites. This morning Good Morning America, George Stephanopoulos interviewing Lisa Bloom, Harvey’s lawyer. “Did he sexually harass women?”

BLOOM: Harvey has acknowledged, yes, that there was misconduct over a period of years. He has certainly a very bad temper, and that’s a big part of the problem. He’s well-known for that. He’s a big, loud guy. People are intimidated by him.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Ashley Judd says she went for a business meeting, said he proposed a massage, asked if she would watch him shower. Is she lying?

BLOOM: No. No. I have great respect for Ashley Judd, and so does Harvey. I’m glad they come forward. I encourage them to come forward. Harvey has authorized me to say that. I mean, this is a very different day. What do you do if you have behaved badly for 30 years? Are you going to continue or are you going to start, you know, a different approach? That’s what he’s doing.

RUSH: This is unreal! Anybody else they would be trying to ruin! They would be trying to ruin them with lawsuits, they would be trying to ruin their careers, instead praising their late arrival to maturity. Yeah, he was a pig and everybody knew at the, yeah, he’s gross, and everybody knew it, yeah, he hit on Ashley, everybody knew it. But you know what, what do you do if you behave badly for 30 years?

You bash the NRA and you bash Wayne LaPierre and you tell everybody you’re not gonna stop until Wayne LaPierre is in the grave or some such thing. And then you get a woman, the daughter of another woman, two sexual harassment lawyers who participate in trying to ruin men, falsely or accurately accused of it, now coming to Harvey’s defense. And what do they do in defending? Admit that Harvey’s a reprobate, admit that Harvey’s a pig. But Harvey knows it now, and Harvey is trying to reform. A beautiful thing.

RUSH: Now, stick with me on this, folks. You know nothing that happens here is isolated. It all links. I bring it all together. Every day at some point in the program, everything, even though it sounds isolated, may be disparate, it all adds up to meaning something consistent.

Now, look at this story here. This is from our old buddies at The Daily Caller, but actually it’s a piece of research from Campus Reform. The headline: “College Course Wonders Why Women Are Becoming More Conservative — Amherst College in Massachusetts is offering a fall 2017 course to try to figure out why women are becoming more conservative.

“The course, entitled ‘Contemporary Debates: Women and Right-Wing Populism,’ will ‘explore the consequences of neoliberalism, cultural conservatism, Islamophobia, and anti-immigrant sentiments for women of different social and economic strata as well as women’s divergent political responses,’ according to the course description.

“The college says students will delve into the topic of why some women have chosen to become conservative leaders while others have allied with liberal, anti-racist and progressive causes. The course will look at whether transnational influences have affected women’s activism and will also examine what impact the surge of ‘far right’ women has had and will have on both gender and sexuality.”

Required reading include Susna Faludi’s In The Dark Room and The Handmaid’s Tale. Do you know what that’s about? Hulu made a miniseries out of it. It was written some time ago by a woman named Margaret Atwood. It’s dystopian as opposed to utopian and it is about the future in which women are literally nothing but servants of men for the purposes of sex and domestic things. I mean, it is every cliche the women’s movement, which I like when walking behind it, has been for. Except it’s presented as a horror story, and the women in the show are dressed as though they are Amish. And they’re all dressed alike.

I mean, it is a paranoid feminazi’s nightmare that was made into a book and made into miniseries. My tech blogs, these kids are reading it, and they think it’s right on, man, it’s right on, it’s right where we’re headed. It’s exactly what Trump would do. It’s exactly what Trump would do if we’re not careful. Meanwhile, over here is Harvey Weinstein, who is mistreating women, who is treating them as nothing but sex objects. And Harvey Weinstein is a hero, everybody wants to be Harvey Weinstein and want to do what Harvey Weinstein does, produce movies about great progressive causes.

They all knew. While making TV series The Handmaid’s Tale about how rotten conservatives treat women, there’s Harvey Weinstein, who knows, he may have invested in it. I don’t know. The rank hypocrisy here reeks. Back to Lisa Bloom. Stick with me. It all comes together, folks. Lisa Bloom on Good Morning America with George Stephanopoulos who, by the way, ran the Clinton war room and one of his jobs was to identify women that were gonna come forward and accuse Bill Clinton of things like Harvey Weinstein’s accused of and Stephanopoulos’s job was to help destroy them, along with James Carville and others in the Clinton war room.

And now here is the lawyer, Lisa Bloom, the daughter of Gloria Allred defending Harvey, speaking up for Harvey, more so than a lawyer would about a client, on Good Morning America. Stephanopoulos’ question: “Mr. Weinstein appeared naked or nearly or fully naked in front of these women requiring to be present while he bathed or asking for a massage or initiating a massage himself.” This what happened to Ashley Judd. As I say, it’s no wonder she’s affected. And Stephanopoulos says, “Lisa, this is a real pattern, a real pattern of yuk. For over 30 years. This is like textbook sexual harassment, Lisa, your client.”

Text book example of progressive/leftist/liberal hypocrisy. They know he’s a lascivious, predatory, sex-criminal, but because he’s powerful and on their side of the aisle, they overlook and ignore it.
Compare that to that disgusting, evil, sodomite Dennis Hastert. When it came out what he did, folks on FR, and the truth telling media, were out for that son of a bitch with torches and pitchforks.

The Handmaid’s Tale.. I don’t understand how they can get away with saying conservative men treat women like this.
They’re ok with the way muslims treat women though. Think about it.

Can I just ask this?

Why are they all up in arms for him asking Ashley Judd for a massage?

He asked her, he didn’t force her.

But he was a Lefty. It was okay as long as it was a Lefty.

Bill Clinton, Bill Cosby, Harvey Weinstein, Congressman Weiner,... if Trump had done 1% of what they did, he’d have been sent to prison for it.

As it is, they are looking to rehab Weinstein. His attorney is admitting publicly that, “Yes, he did all those things,...”, but he learned his lesson, and is now dedicated to being a better person.

The Left is so damned corrupt. It’s just sickening to think about what they advocate for.

"Why are they all up in arms for him asking Ashley Judd for a massage?"

Maybe it was the asking her to watch him shower thing.

Not JOIN him in the shower, WATCH him shower.

Didn't he get naked in front of her while asking?

I'm no prize, but Harvey is one ugly MF'er.

I can't imagine seeing him naked.

The horror... the... horror...

Harvey Weinstein was a business partner with prolific pornographer Sam Xavier Lessner. They operated H&S Sales (for Harvey & Sam), distributing explicit porn photos, before the Internet became robust enough to view & transfer large images & video files. Lessner produced many big-bust fetish XXX videos, distributing them on DVDs under the Big Top brand, & other names.

Harvey & Sam were principals of The Score Group aka Quad International, Inc. based in Miami, Florida. They published the glossy SCORE magazine for years, along with several other similar rags.

Lessner lived in Tucson, AZ, in a home fancy enough to be featured in Architectural Digest. He died in May 2012 at age 68 from a liver ailment.

Weinstein’s just another Hollyweird porno pig — a very arrogant, obnoxious, & wealthy one.

Harvey gets sucked-up by the usual suspects....and loving every minute.

Not their only dark secret, this one is worse....google had lots of single incidents, Nickelodeon being 1 of the worse places.

This one just happened to have multiple incidents...500...

Perhaps this is why the left is so focused on hating various groups. They hate all men because THEIR men are pervs. They think all men behave that way.
