Michigan Rep. John Conyers, a Democrat and the longest-serving member of the House of Representatives, settled a wrongful dismissal complaint in 2015 with a former employee who alleged she was fired because she would not “succumb to [his] sexual advances.”

Documents from the complaint obtained by BuzzFeed News include four signed affidavits, three of which are notarized, from former staff members who allege that Conyers, the ranking Democrat on the powerful House Judiciary Committee, repeatedly made sexual advances to female staff that included requests for sexual favors, contacting and transporting other women with whom they believed Conyers was having affairs, caressing their hands sexually, and rubbing their legs and backs in public. Four people involved with the case verified the documents are authentic.

Shaun King is white, therefore he has no standing.

Plus he’s an idiot.

And this class of lowlifes has the gall to label you as “deplorables.”

Well that’s just typical of the House of Reprehensibles.

Time to release the names of all Congressmen who have used taxpayer money to silence victims. There is no other option now.

The beauty of all of this is that they can’t get on their moral high horse regarding Trump. That’s over. We need to know who made the payoffs.
