Peoples lives are being shattered and destroyed by a mere allegation. Some are true and some are false. Some are old and some are new. There is no recovery for someone falsely accused - life and career are gone. Is there no such thing any longer as Due Process?

A sad situation for singles now. I believe hysteria has taken over, and people misunderstand affection and caring. Being offended at everything good has become a mantra of the left.
Some how true affection, and treating those who need love with cold, and calculated speech is NOT a good thing. Christians have always hugged, and wished each other well at churches, and I guess that will soon be under attack.
I can remember back many years ago, when I was in Reserves; we had to take Sexual Harassment classes. Most military men I knew were gentlemen, and jokers...nothing inappropriate. A couple of guys would hug me goodbye after a session, and joke...please let me harass you? It was all in fun, and I never felt threatened in all those years!
I feel less safe around some of these protestors on left during a political rally! Sheesh! Glad it isn’t just me, that sees the lack of common sense in this. Sad.
Heretic! Burn him!
The Law is way different from Justice.
Justice seems to be dispensed within the Legal System based on how much Justice one can afford.
It’s actually a canard, as displayed by how much the Clintoons have been able to get away with. The molester shoulda been surveilled 24/7 based on the repeated allegations.
Welcome to the new and improved Salem Witch Hunt.
Exactly.
And what about Hope Hicks? If she knew the storm was on the horizon, she should be removed from the WH if she didn't alert Trump and Kelly.
From my vantage point, Porter’s Mormonism alone is already cause for concern...but I don’t expect everyone to exercise discernment in this area.
Well, call out Mitt, Flake, Lee, et. al..
Make him/them ‘splain.
His comments today have been excellently written and are getting powerful points across in a professional and intelligent way worthy of a president.
I am proud of him.
I believe several cases were filed in court very recently so apparently they have some sort of evidence. Nevertheless, the whole casting couch system, which is essentially another kind of pay to play, is a travesty in that it inherently corrupts, and casts out those with virtue. People think they can do what they want behind closed doors, but the truth will out.
Oh my goodness, you need to do your read-up! The Weinstein fiasco goes sooooo much further than a few hotel room encounters.
See even before all this came out, look what measures were taken to enable his KNOWN behavior:
** Harvey Weinstein’s Contract Allowed Sexual Abuse”
“ As long as he paid agreed-upon settlements to his accusers, he could theoretically retain his job no matter how many women filed suit against him. $250,000 for the first such instance, $500,000 for the second such instance, $750,000 for the third such instance, and $1,000,000 for each additional instance.
** Harvey Weinsteins 91-Name Hitlist, Revealed
“The former studio executive sent the list to the team of lawyers and former spies he hired to prevent allegations of sexual assault from going public.”

Rape is against the victims will.
The casting couch seems like a negotiating table.
There are numerous ways to earn a living.
Democrat feminists needed a way to rationalize excusing Bill Clinton's raping and groping and flashing his manhood and Gloria gave it to them.
But now we are lectured that just asking a woman for a dance or a date or complementing her constitute unforgivable sexual harassment.
And a disagreement between a married couple always constitutes domestic abuse or mental cruelty.
Has there been a great transformation and the birth of a new-Victorian age?
Are all adult women today nothing but cloistered maidens who reel in shock and terror at the slightest look or approach by a male?
Or are they all innocent virgins who become offended and contract the vapors at the smallest suggestion that a man might find them attractive?
Thank you for that info, but that wasn’t my question.
OMG! Jeff Flake is a Mormon?
Figures...ugh.
Yes it’s vital the Mormons don’t hijack the reins of the Republican Party. Attempts have been made already and thank GOD Mitt Romney did not win in 2012. Boo Hoo 4 years of Obama all you want but without the 2012 loss, there would have been no opening for Trump to enter the way he did and for even the GOP Swamp to get drained!
Though Ronna *Romney* McDaniel is the current GOP chair...Apparently a good one?
I still have my suspicions...
Sounds to me as if he’s also referring to the witch hunt. Mueller is destroying lives with the all the money and power a deep state henchman can utilize, and he shows no signs of stopping.
Let’s not forget how the libs give women-beating thugs like Jay Z a platform on talk shows.
The MSM and Hollywood have finalized media trials by flooding the airwaves with their version of whatever the cause de jure.
The only exceptions might involve allegations against political figures where the victims were hesitant about reporting it to law enforcement because their attackers WERE "the law" in many respects.
