Uber-Lib David Corn Investigated for Inappropriate Workplace Behavior … Accused of making “rape jokes,” “regularly gave unwelcome shoulder rubs and engaged in uninvited touching of their legs, arms, backs, and waists,” and “made inappropriate comments about women’s sexuality and anatomy.”
This time a far-Lefty is accused of inappropriate behavior …
The Politico reports that Mother Jones magazine’s editor and chief executive investigated Washington bureau chief David Corn for inappropriate workplace behavior three years ago. They warned him about touching female staffers and insensitive descriptions of sexual violence, and they would now probe the allegations further due to two emails written by former staffers in 2014 and 2015. Had these same kind of emails surfaced in today’s environment or accusations were made now, Corn would probably find himself without a job in the light of what has happened recently. Corn was accused of making “rape jokes,” “regularly gave (several women) unwelcome shoulder rubs and engaged in uninvited touching of their legs, arms, backs, and waists,” and “made inappropriate comments about women’s sexuality and anatomy.”
Mother Jones magazine’s editor and chief executive acknowledged on Thursday that they investigated Washington bureau chief David Corn for inappropriate workplace behavior three years ago, warning him about touching female staffers and insensitive descriptions of sexual violence, and would now probe the allegations further in light of two emails written by former staffers in 2014 and 2015 and obtained by POLITICO.
One of the emails, written in 2015 by a former staffer outlining concerns she had heard from other women in the Washington office, said Corn, now 58, made “rape jokes,” “regularly gave [several women] unwelcome shoulder rubs and engaged in uninvited touching of their legs, arms, backs, and waists,” and “made inappropriate comments about women’s sexuality and anatomy.” The other email, from 2014, was by a former female staffer who claimed that Corn “came up behind me and put his hands and arms around my body in a way that felt sexual and domineering.”
CEO Monika Bauerlein and editor-in-chief Clara Jeffery said they had not seen these emails, which were shared several years ago between colleagues and union representatives. But the magazine’s leaders acknowledged dealing with allegations of inappropriate touching and comments around the time the emails were written, and said they believe Corn has stopped those behaviors.
Corn, in a statement to POLITICO, said that neither his comments nor his touching of colleagues was in any way sexual.
Corn’s excuse is that he is just an exuberant person and it was never his intent to be perceived as “sexual” or “domineering.” Of course we know from other sexual harassment cases, it is not a matter of what the perpetrator intended, it is how the victim perceived the advances. Hmm, making rape jokes, rubbing woman’s shoulders and engaging in uninvited touching of their legs, arms, backs, and waists, and making inappropriate comments about women’s sexuality and anatomy isn’t sexual? Really?
“I am an exuberant person and have been known to pat male and female colleagues on the shoulder or slap them on the back, but always in a collegial or celebratory way,” he said. “I have never touched any work colleague in a sexual manner. Once concerns were raised about this type of contact, I have been mindful to avoid it to prevent any misperception. If anyone ever perceived any of this as ‘sexual’ or ‘domineering,’ I am sorry—that was never my intent.”
So what will happen to David Corn? Others have found themselves relived of their jobs for similar and worse conduct. Does anyone think this is really all just in the past, or has the same behavior continued over time? We shall see if more women come forward.
The accusations against Corn have surfaced amid a wave of sexual harassment allegations involving high-profile men in the news business, including star political journalist Mark Halperin, now-former top NPR editor Michael Oreskes, former New Republic literary editor Leon Wieseltier and New Republic publisher Hamilton Fish. Wieseltier, Fish and Corn were recently accused of harassment on “Shitty Media Men,” an anonymously written list featuring women’s claims against more than 70 men that’s been circulating among journalists.

Democrat Maxine Waters Threatens President Donald Trump, “I Will Go and Take Trump Out Tonight” (VIDEO)
WTF … IMAGE IF E REPUBLICAN POLITICIANS SAID THE SAME THING ABOUT BARACK OBAMA?
Hmm, so who goes high when the others go low? Democrat Rep. Maxine Waters made a threat of violence against a sitting president. The LEFT and MSM can try and spin this all they want, this is what she did. So when will the Secret Service be paying a visit to this insanoid Democrat? Just how irresponsible can the LEFT be with their hateful rhetoric that is meant to rile up the base. This is despicable and she should be sanctioned by the House for her actions. This is not free speech, this is an act of violence.
Once again I will say, what you the LEFT’s and MSM’s reaction be in a GOP representative has made such a threat to Barack Obama? Yup, the double standard is sickening.
Who is the unstable individual who should be kicked out of politics? Maxine Waters is a lunatic. It is sad that the LEFT would actually try and defend this. They are actually defending Waters’ rhetoric. She did not say take him out in 2018 or 2020. She said tonight.
UPDATE: YouTube deletes Maxine Waters promise to ‘go and take out Trump’.

UNREAL, Hillary Clinton Compares Harvey Weinstein to President Donald Trump … Really, When Married to Bill Clinton with Allegations of Sexually Assault and Actual Sex With Monica?
HILLARY CLINTON GOES THERE, ACTUALLY COMPARES HARVEY WEINSTEIN TO DONALD TRUMP … HEY HILLARY YOU ARE MARRIED TO BILL CLINTON, REMEMBER?
In an interview for her new book, “What Happened,” Hillary Rodham Clinton spoke to The Andrew Marr Show about why she lost the U.S. Presidential election and about Harvey Weinstein. Hillary Clinton tried to pivot as fast as she could away from the fact that she was a friend of Weinstein. Then she stated that she had no idea about Weinstein and his sexual perversions, even though as the interviewer pointed out, everyone in Hollywood and who traveled in his circles knew. Just like she had no idea of the many affairs of her husband, former president Bill Clinton. But I digress. The below interview is classic. You have to love the British press that sound so polite and then nail you with a gut-wrenching question.
Hillary Clinton is confronted by foreign journalist Andrew Marr for commending women that have come forward with claims they were sexual assaulted by movie producer Harvey Weinstein but not for the women who accused her husband former President Bill Clinton of assault and rape.
“Conclusions [were] drawn and that was clearly in the past,” Clinton said of her husband’s activity.
Clinton said while the sexual assault accusations against Weinstein “disgusting” and “heartbreaking,” it’s “important” that we recognize there is an admitted sexual assault in the Oval Office. Clinton was talking about President Donald Trump.
Then she went there. In an effort to deflect the fact that a so-called feminist took campaign and Foundation money for a serial sexual harasser and assaulter of women, Hillary said,”we just elected a person who admitted sexual assault to the presidency.” WHAT? No sweetie, your husband is the admitted sexual harasser and assaulter of women. UNREAL. If there is one woman who has lost the right to point a finger at anyone for sexual assault, it is Hillary Clinton. She talked about women coming forward against Weinsten, what happened to the woman that came forward against Bill Clinton? The answer, Hillary trashed them and called them bimbos. It has never been proved that Trump did any such thing. The Billy Bush tape, although repugnant, is two guys bragging about sexual conquest and what celebrity provides. The major point, it was consensual. Let’s face it, former president Bill “Bubba” Clinton lowered the bar of the White House to an unprecedented low. Bill Clinton did the most vile things to an intern, Monica Lewinsky. He had Monica on her knees, of which Hillary thinks in relevant, in the Oval Office performing oral sex. This pig used a cigar on a 22 year old intern in the Oval Office and Hillary has the balls to make any comparisons to Weinstein other than her husband? Wake the hell up women of America, your so-called feminist, woman hero is a sexual predator enabler.
Fox News contributor Mike Huckabee reacts to Hillary Clinton’s comparison of Harvey Weinstein and President Trump. One is almost speechless in their reaction to Hillary Clinton daring to compare Trump to Weinstein when the obvious comparison is her husband, former president Bill Clinton. After all, he did teach us what the meaning of is, is.

Remember When Harvey Weinstein Was a Liberal Hero Supporting Hillary Clinton and On MSNBC Morning Joe (VIDEO)
IT WASN’T THAT LONG AGO THAT HARVEY WEINSTEIN WAS A LIBERAL DARLING, AND THEY ALL KNEW …
It was not that long ago that the liberal MSM and the LEFT gushed over Harvey Weinstein. He was the darling of liberals. Democrat politicians went to Weinstein with hat in hand looking for donations and for that they gave him inside access. Harvey Weinstein backed Hillary Clinton and we are to believe that Hillary was “appalled” by the recent allegations when so many knew the real story. Are we supposed to believe Hillary knew nothing about her husband’s affairs either? Hardly.
The problem now is that the rats can’t run fast enough away from the S.S. Weinstein.
Are you kidding, The Morning Schmo has the nerve to act like they didn’t know. Really? MSNBC is reporting that the silence is deafening from Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Democrats and they aren’t also to blame as enablers? This is laughable that they would act like they had no idea. MSNBC is the liberal, LEFT and Hollywood has been in bed with the liberal media for decades. For MSNBC to act like they had no idea about the dirty secrets of Harvey Weinstein is laughable and disingenuous.

Seth MacFarlane Explains His 2012 Oscar Best Supporting Actress Harvey Weinstein Joke … “Congratulations, You Five Ladies No Longer have to Pretend to be Attracted to Harvey Weinstein.” (VIDEO)
MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT, HOLLYWOOD KNEW AND ALL THE LIBERAL POLITICIANS WHO TOOK THEIR MONEY KNEW AS WELL …
Many people, not in Hollywood, wondered what was meant when following Seth MacFarlane providing the 2012 Oscar nominations for ‘Best Supporting Actresses,’ he made the following joke, that was supposed to be more of a commentary rather than joke. However, from the reaction of those in attendance, you can tell they knew exactly what MacFarlane was referring to.
“CONGRATULATIONS, YOU 5 LADIES NO LONGER HAVE TO PRETEND TO BE ATTRACTED TO HARVEY WEINSTEIN.”
The sad reality is, they all knew and did and said nothing. The actresses and actors knew, the producers and directors knew. Hell, the best boys and key grips knew. More importantly, Hollywood knew … and did nothing. More so, the liberal MSM knew and so did the liberal politicians like Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, who consistently went to these people for campaign money. Don’t ever believe the acting job that Hillary Clinton just found out about this. I am sure it was just another right wing conspiray like with her former president husband Bubba. Or Barack Obama, acting as if this is news to him. Both are cringe worthy of an Oscar themselves. They are all enablers, including the NY Times.
As reported at EW, Seth MacFarlane comes clean and explains why he did what he did and what he meant by the joke on Twitter.
When hosting the Oscars five years ago, Seth MacFarlane made a bold joke about Harvey Weinstein.
Now, in the light of a stunning array of sexual misconduct allegations against the powerhouse producer, The Family Guy creator is explaining the full context of his remark.
Barth was one of the women to come forward with allegations against Weinstein in The New Yorker‘s bombshell story published Tuesday. According to Barth, the disgraced executive allegedly invited her to his hotel room, where, the New Yorker claims, he was, “alternat[ing] between offering to cast her in a film and demanding a naked massage in bed … When she moved toward the door to leave, Weinstein lashed out, saying that she needed to lose weight ‘to compete with Mila Kunis,’ and then, apparently in an effort to mollify her, promising a meeting with one of his female executives.”
“He gave me her number, and I walked out and I started bawling,” Barth told The New Yorker.
