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.

You mean there are DEGREES of lib crazy?!?
I DID NOT know that.....I figured it was just a circle jerk of lib tribal love.
See, that’s why I love FR. You learn something new every day!
Why do politicians and their, “Fans” consider government public servants as icons, celebrities or upcoming, “Stars”.
I find this extremely odd and quite disturbing
Because Washington DC is Hollywood for ugly people.
“Pelosi said Conyers deserves “due process.” And what did she say about Roy Moore?”
Doesn’t matter; the Dem’s are giving Roy Moore a get out of jail free pass.
Problem was, he couldn’t keep his icon in his pants.
It makes you wonder if he has a file cabinet full of special inf on some of his fellow democraps, the way they are now changing position and defending him.
I wonder if the drug BOTOX had a very ill affect on her mind.? Never know, she is WAY out of touch....like she is really out of tune. She doesn;t REALLY know what is going on. Reminds me of the Mouse laying on his back with a huge erection, floating down a river on barge,...yelling at the top of his lungs, OPEN THE DRAW BRIDGE OPEN THE DRAW BRIDGE.. She way oversteps a real world view based on facts.
We need a right-wing Tom Lehrer on steroids.
When you need Nancy to publicly defend you, it’s over.
I think a “master legislator” is superior to an “icon.”
She sent in enough box tops.
So that’s what happened to the little old man from the Benny Hill Show. He transgendered.
Weinstein had an Oscar in his.
I have known for a long time that Pelosi is at best delusional and showing signs of dementia. Nevertheless, it surprised me that she would go this far out on the limb in the present climate. Then again, she can expect the media to go easy on her.
....means he's guilty if he's Judge Moore and innocent if he's John Conyers.
I think I understand, you batshitcrazy partisan freak.
If you protect women as a legislator, voting for publicly funded abortions, for example, you get due process. If you don’t, you’re guilty as soon as someone says you are.
“I wonder if the drug BOTOX had a very ill affect on her mind.? Never know, she is WAY out of touch....like she is really out of tune. She doesn;t REALLY know what is going on.”
Sad to say, I think she’s in early stage dementia. It would be good if her husband, adult children, somebody she would listen to would have a sit-down with her and tell her it’s time to retire. Thereby, leaving with her dignity.
