House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi defended Rep. John Conyers on Sunday while saying accusations of sexual harassment against the 88-year-old Democratic congressman from Michigan should be taken “seriously.”
On NBC’s “Meet The Press,” Pelosi called Conyers “an icon in our country” who “has done a great deal to protect women” and deserves “due process.”
“Just because someone is accused — and was it one accusation? Is it two?” Pelosi, D-Calif., said. “The fact is, as John reviews his case, which he knows, which I don’t, I believe he will do the right thing.”
Last week, BuzzFeed revealed that in 2015, Conyers settled a sexual harassment and wrongful dismissal complaint with a woman who said she was fired the year before because she refused to provide sexual favors to him. Another former staffer of Conyers said she faced daily harassment from him in a separate, sealed lawsuit that she attempted to file this year. But the woman abandoned the effort after a judge refused to seal the suit. The House Ethics Committee has launched an investigation into the claims.

Conyers can now be the newest Lion of the Sinate
Bring back the public post & pillory
Pelosi should be forced to wear Conyer’s underwear on her head.
How can you tell Conyer’s underwear on someone’s head from a vagina hat?
Conyers wears tightie whities.
Pussy hats are, well...pink.
BTW, Gilbert & Sullivan would never “do” the American left.
They would be too genteel for that.
Of course she does. The hypocrisy and lack of principle that led feminists to defend Bill Clinton and denounce his victims in the ‘90s are alive and well today.
Pelosi said Conyers deserves “due process.”
And what did she say about Roy Moore?
Has Pelosi called for Bush to be impeached yet. She thinks that he is still President
Nancy, you hypocritical statements are showing...
That woman is dripping with stupidity. If it were, wait, she picks and chooses who should be sexual predators and they might be Republicans like Judge Moore but because Conyers is BLACK and a rebel rouser racist Demonrat, he gets a pass from Peeloosely. Go home you old hag. You’re NUTS!!!!
with the skid mark to the front
What a joke!
Roy Moore needs to be drawn and quartered because of ALLEGTIONS, but Conyers needs due process. Not partisan. Nope. Not at all.
I hate Nancy Pelosi. She’s a crazy bitch and needs a mental exam.
Roy Moore isn't an "icon."
John Conyers is.
Who's an "icon" gets determined by Nutzy Pelosi, who is herself a "master legislator," by her own assessment.
I think a "master legislator" is superior to an "icon."
Take everything she says with a grain of LSD.
