In short, Harvey Weinstein bullied his way to the top of the movie industry--in multiple senses!

The list of charges against him when they are filed are going to literally read like an encyclopedia.

It all comes down to abortion - there is nothing that cannot be ignored or excused in a politician/public figure as long as they support abortion...it is the single greatest factor in the moral, spiritual and financial meltdown of our country in the past 45 years because once we began to rationalize the wholesale destruction of THE most vulnerable members of society, we lost our soul.

“May God have mercy on us, and bless us: may He cause the light of His countenance to shine upon us, and may He have mercy on us....” Psalm 67:1

Great article. I highly recommend reading the whole thing. He even makes the connection to the Clintons.

The question remains. Why?

It is the same question asked about the Las Vegas Shooter.

Why has the left (absent Meryl Streep who lies) turned on the man?

Thanks for the post! I think the author nailed the reason for why this story is and can come out now:

The support system of the news media and magazines has collapsed.

the board of directors fired him at age 65. so Gloria Allred types will be coming out of the woodwork for the civil suits!

you can directly trace the moral decline from the 60’s back to the legalization of abortion and the removal of prayer in public schools.

because the board fired Harvey at age 65 and he has no formal power anymore to make or break careers.

The Weinstein Company should consider hiring Equifax to handle their confidential information.

Better keep those settlements under wrap.

no comment from Gwyneth Paltrow, Wynona Ryder, Gretchen Mol etc...nobodies who suddenly became Miramax ‘stars’ overnight

I don't follow showbiz closely and never have.To me "People" Magazine isn't even worth buying as an emergency supply of TP or to use to line bird cages.As a result I know basically nothing about Paltrow or Mol but I am a bit familiar with Ryder because she appeared in...*starred* in,actually...a film I like,"Beatlejuice".

IIRC she was something like 15 when that film was made.

Yick!

My question is how many MEN did Weinstein abuse?

The real dirt will be about the ages of those male victims.
One of the army of unnamed Hollywood bigwigs who trolled young male actors-according to his book 'Coreyography', was believed to be Weinstein.

Of course anyone with a clue knows that there are many, many more abusers in Hollywood and don’t think for ONE SECOND that many of them aren’t female.

Any relation to these stories from last year?
Could Weinstein be the person hinted at in the Corey Haim articles that came out and then disappeared?

BINGO!!

“that would explain Malia Obama’s three to four hour work days in New York, trips to Sundance and being able to read all of the top scripts off the bat as an intern...SO GROSS! bleeeech”

That would definitely explain it....

I believe the women that scream the loudest about conservative men behavior are often the enablers and the victims of theses Hollywood men.

Corry Feldman was scared to death of what would happen if he named the person. said the person had the ability to destroy him.

Has anybody considered that maybe Weinstein did something to piss off Malaria Obama who went and told daddy who used his corrupt machine to drop dime on the perv? I think that’s highly possible.

This is a pretty big deal. The hypocrisy of the left has to be their biggest Achilles Heel, and Harvey Weinstein is one of the great hypocrites of all time.
