You have to ask, what is the purpose of the federal government? When they held hearings on professional sports using steroids, I was angry. The feds have no business delving into little scandals. They do it just for headlines.
Let law enforcement do their job.
Congress doesn’t need to be involved in this Hollywood sex crime stuff. In fact, I don’t see it as their role or job.
Long to do list that I wish Trump would put together and lay in front of Ears Sessions and all of the other alphabet orgs and say OK what are we doing...?
Political mistake.
No sense in having federal laws against work-related sexual harassment/assault if you don’t prosecutor the perps and put the fear of god in those who follow....
Why?
Maybe the could call Gary Condit and Joe Scarborough as expert witnesses.
If the issue is “sex conduct”, it seems that Congress has bigger fish to fry. If it was so bad, why didn’t any of these “victims” come forward over the past 20+ years? Because they were OK with it if/when it resulted in their names in lights on marquees. It’s called, “prostitution”. Don’t libs refer to prostitution as a victim-less crime?
Still, if hearings resulted in shredding the fabric of the Hollywood elite culture, and impacting their incomes which gets passed on to liberal politicians, it would be a good thing. Removing their credibility — I’d love to see that.
Careful what you wish for.
Congressional investigations have become a replacement for prosecution of criminal wrongdoing.
If you want no one in Hollywood punished beyond civil lawsuits, you should support this ‘investigation’.
We can’t have this. The homos and the pedos would be kicked back into the closet.
It will be challenging to get a majority of either house to go along with this.
I doubt there is a majority who aren’t personally involved. *sigh*
And what is the Constitutional authority for such a waste of time and money? /rhetorical
What needs to be investigated is the DC culture of the same behaviors! You can’t tell me the deep state doesn’t control Washington thru knowledge of Congress etc. & their back room “behavior”. Ex: Lindsay Graham
I call for investigations of congress.
Nothing new about Hollywood celebrities as they always have been a nest of sex maniacs. They range from homos to child molesters and all points in between
