Huma Abedin writes in new book she was sexually assaulted by US senator

Huma Abedin, a longtime top aide to Hillary Clinton and the estranged wife of former Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.), writes in a new book that she was sexually assaulted by an unidentified U.S. senator in the mid-2000s.

Abedin writes in her forthcoming book, “Both/And: A Life in Many Worlds,” that she attended a dinner in Washington, D.C., with “a few senators and their aides” and then stopped at one of the lawmakers’ homes for a cup of coffee.

She said she was invited in after the two had stopped inside his building and was told by the senator to “make myself comfortable on the couch,” according to The Guardian, which obtained a copy of her book, set to be released on Nov. 2.

Abedin said the senator proceeded to make her a cup of coffee before he took a seat beside her on the couch and started kissing her.

“Then, in an instant, it all changed. He plopped down to my right, put his left arm around my shoulder, and kissed me, pushing his tongue into my mouth, pressing me back on the sofa,” Abedin writes.

She said she pushed him away and was “utterly shocked,” adding that all she wanted “was for the last 10 seconds to be erased.”

Abedin said the senator was surprised and apologized that he “misread” her “all this time.” She writes that she was deciding how to leave “without this ending badly.”

“Then I said something only the twentysomething version of me would have come up with — ‘I am so sorry’ — and walked out, trying to appear as nonchalant as possible,” she said.

The Clinton aide said she avoided the senator “for a few days” but ultimately crossed paths with him on Capitol Hill. She recalls nodding when he asked if they were still friends.

Abedin also writes that she “buried the incident,” adding that her memory of the alleged assault came back to mind during proceedings for Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court in 2018, which was mired by allegations of sexual assault.

She said her memory resurfaced when reading about Christine Blasey Ford “being accused of ‘conveniently’ remembering” her alleged assault.

She went alone at night to his apartment, yet she’s “shocked” that that action would be mis-interpreted by a man?

“My money is on CHRIS DODD. by early 2000’s”

If you believe this, you might also believe a Muslim chick gonna share a marriage bed with a jew

If she was really good was sex assaulted, she’d change the gender, race and party affiliation to ensure a white male assistant democrat gets fingered for it instead of the dyke democrat who really did it (Clinton)

Yes. I was in DC in the 80s and early 90s, and the story of their riotous behavior at Georgetown bars was well known. It finally ended when two women at a bar, which I recall was located in the Georgetown Park Mall, spoke out.

The Hag was a Senator. I’m sure the sexual assault was welcomed!

“After munching on Hillary’s fetid fish taco for years...”

“I just threw up in a mouth a bit as i was reading your post.”

It is horrid to contemplate.

Speaking of throwing up, aif a friend or loved one is sick and nauseous from too much alcohol and needs to throw out it all up I know how to make it happen. Just ask the poor sufferer “Would you like a greasy, fatty ham sandwich in an ashtray?”

In high school I was in a bathroom stall, sick as a dog with the flu, and trying without success to throw up my lunch and my friend came in and asked me what was wrong. I replied that I couldn’t throw up. He just got a smirk on his face and asked me that question and I immediately projectile vomited from the door of the stall onto the back wall over the toilet.

it has worked 3 out of the 4 times I have used it.

"It was Hillary."

That's my first thought too. Maybe the pantsuit and short haircut can deceive you into thinking Hillary is a him.

She probably should have put the name of her former husband into the title of the book it would have gotten more attention.
