On Oct. 8, 2016, almost a year to the day before The New York Times and The New Yorker would publish investigations into movie mogul Harvey Weinstein’s serial rape and sexual abuse that would ignite the #MeToo movement, the Washington Post ran a clip of then-presidential nominee Donald Trump bragging about sexually assaulting women. The hot-mic moment saw the reality TV host confiding in Access Hollywood sycophant Billy Bush, “I don’t even wait [to kiss women]. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything… Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.” Trump waved away the disturbing exchange as “locker-room talk.”

None of the democrats and news media, Hollywood scarlet's, are saying squat about Tara Reade. They all get the DNC memos and they follow the demands.
Where or where is Alissa Milano? That chick went to the Kavanaugh hearings everyday and held up signs behind those testifying. Fraud.

#2, Alyssa Milano is one of those celebrity twits whose attention span and intellect is about a mile wide, but only a half inch deep, and that shallow pond evaporates quickly.
I enjoyed watching Project Runway for a long time until she became a part of it and it didn't take long for me to decide life is too short to have to watch Alyssa Milano.

"intend to use their millions-strong platforms to censure the Trumps and O’Reillys"
Stern champions equal opportunity mob attacks on anyone falling under the shadow of #MeToo.
Instead, most of these issues should be handed fairly but privately with the help of a careful investigation by authorities. When evidence solidly implies guilt, then public coverage for public figures is justified. Why? Because such charges have significant likelihood of being false or unsubstantiated. No one should be smeared without clear evidence since the accusation can be as unfairly devastating as the alleged crime. Accusation by rumor and innuendo is not justice, for either side of the political aisle.

The nature of the media is chattering monkies. Professionalism supposedly would dampen that. Professioanlism has been replaced with propagandism, which exploits the monkey like chittering against enemies of the Pseudo State.
Joe’s Bi.den is the monkies’ friend. Alyssa whoever is just one of the loudest monkies. Who knows why she is louder than the others. She’ll be seen next to the organ grinder when he nexts grinds his organ.

Ah, #4, but where you say "fairly" is the key. Show me where the media treats the Right fairly? And going all out to support the left. Is that fair? Fairness is something we will never see from the media or the democrats. It is not in their makeup to treat everyone equally.

They have so much great funny material with all the COVID 19 deaths they just couldn't squeeze it in.

I was a loyal every night Jimmy Kimmel fan for multi years. Until he went off the deep end and showed his true feelings and bias. So there is no surprise that he and others are saying nothing about Tara Reid when they couldn't shut their mouthes re: baby voiced Blasey Ford.

No doubt all of these late night "hosts" have played the Joe Biden did. They are quite, because once they open Pandora's Box, the schiff will fly.

Trump did not brag about sexual assault. An assault is non consensual. He was talking about what women let him do. So again there was no admission to or bragging about an assault of any kind, sexual or otherwise. He was simply talking about what sluts some women are around a man who is rich and famous. I am so sick of this lie that the media repeat ad nauseum.

The Hollywood celebs, the socialist democrats, and the media are all part of the same liberal hive. They, together, make that buzzing sound.

It seems to me that:
The Democ'RAT party Oligarchs forced the Democ'RAT primary also-rans (vote-splitters) who might take votes away from Quid-Pro-Joe to drop out just before Super Tuesday, thus using Quid-Pro Joe to cheat Crazy Bernie (again).
Next, the Oligarchs realized they were stuck with Dementia Joe. How to get rid of HIM? (Remember when Snakehead Carville was calling for "No More Primaries- Let's Shut this Puppy Down!" ....BEFORE The HairSniffer had enough votes to lock up the 'Rat nomination? This allows the Oligarchs (The BackRoom Boys) a free hand.
Nineteen days after Tara Reid's accusations first came out, the 'Rats realized that here was a Politically Correct, #MeToo Approved way to Dump Dementia Joe. Some stories began circulating in the media.
Perhaps the Oligarchs realized that if they dump the HairSniffer now, then they have to deal with Crazy Bernie again, until at least the Convention.
Perhaps the Oligarchs have decided to ACT LIKE Dementia Joe is their Least Bad Candidate/Sacrificial Candidate, and The Word has gone out to the Media to LAY OFF the Tara Reid stories...... BURY It...... We're Going (to Act Like we're going) to Run Sleepy Joe.
As it stands, the appearance is that Dementia (Foot-in-Mouth) Joe will be the Sacrificial Candidate. He'll lose in a landslide, but the 'Rat bureaucrats will keep their soft, well-paid positions in the 'Rat bureaucracy (rather than being replaced by BernieBots).
If the Oligarchs wanted to dump Plugs, they had a Golden Opportunity, but they have chosen Not to take it, at least for now. Is it because they want to avoid a Crazy Bernie Resurgence? (If Biden's out then Bernie has the most delegates.)
Hmmmm.....
I wonder what schemes and 'fast ones' are planned to be executed at the 'Rat Nomination?
Us plain Honest Folk will have to just Wait and See.
