Manhattan Editor: Schneiderman's Drunken Sexual Abuse Was an 'Open Secret'

Now-former New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman's serial and often violent mistreatment of women chronicled on Monday at The New Yorker is yet another example of scandalous behavior which was widely known among leaders in both the Democratic Party and the media elites that somehow never surfaced in public for years (a few of many additional examples would include former Today Show host Matt Lauer, former PBS/CBS newsman Charlie Rose, and retired NBC Nightly News anchor Tom Brokaw).

That may be, but it is rather rich for the lamestreams and the Dems to accuse Republicans and conservatives of a “war on women,” and to pretend that conservatives want to create a “Handmaid’s Tale” type of society that abuses women and makes them second class citizens. The Dems always seems to be the biggest abusers of women.

The high morals of media people and our politicians.

[metmom]

The hypocrisy of the left is staggering.

Trump is accused of a one night stand which cannot be proved, and the left takes the high moral ground to the point that Jesus Himself would not be pure enough.

But when it’s one of their own, their feet are stuck in concrete when it comes to condemning them or inflicting consequences.

If it’s evil and perverted, the lying murdering traitorous Demonicrats and the fifth-column leftist media will support it, cover for it, and embrace it into their souls.

KIRK: Of course. It had to be. Landru. SPOCK: A machine. This whole society is a machine's concept of perfection. Peace, harmony. KIRK: But no soul. Schneiderman and his antics (and similar ones of many other Dems and establishment GOPe) make me think of this scene.

"Schneiderman's abusive actions may have influenced his priorities as a prosecutor, causing him to decide to stay uninvolved in efforts to prosecute corrupt Empire State politicians because doing so might cause them to go public with the grisly accusations about his personal life."

Extortion. That is the currency of the elites. Not money. Not expertise. Not knowledge. Unspoken extortion threats they pocket to use against each other.

Creep Bharara must have know too.

I’m in the minority here, I think.

Maybe I missed part of the story because I don’t care much....

These were bedroom activities between willing participants, right?

It’s not my cup of tea, but if so, what is all the outrage about? This comes off as last girlfriends taking him out politically.

If that is the case where does this end? “He slapped me on the ass once when we were in bed”. ???? Slippery slope.

This is nothing like Weinstein coercing subordinates who wanted a career. Or maybe that is the part I’m missing.

[UB355]

Really, he was the champion of the MeToo movement. Hypocrite.

Oh ... I get it ... It's the ALCOHOL's fault.

[Ken H]

You must not have read the story, otherwise you wouldn’t sound like such a moron.

[laxcoach]

Totally unnecessary. I asked if I missed something.

Anyway I read the article attached and all it says is that he is a hypocrite, that there is a mysterious fifth victim, and equates him with Weinstein. It does not get into any allegations.

The day these allegations came out Fox News was filled with stories that sounded more like S&M.

So since you were rude and wrong about the content of this particular article, I found a New Yorker article that is more precise and inflammatory. If true, he is guilty of domestic abuse - they allege he hit his girlfriends when drunk. That is serious - far far moreso than forceful S&M. I

Sure he did

All part of the Butt Boy Cover Up Gang

The advantage Republicans have is the press hates us so much they'll destroy our people for jaywalking.

That's why we don't have the scum democrats have... Think about it - democrats got a pass when Teddy let a woman drown - - to cover up his drunk driving.We would NEVER get a pass for one of our people killing a woman.

Democrats got a pass for Robert Byrd (D) being the Senate Leader for decades AND having a KKK past... We would NOT have gotten a pass for pushing a KKK member into the Senate/

Bill Clinton got a pass for raping women... Rape. Not 'being unfaithful - but being a criminal rapist. WE would NEVER get a pass for one of our guys being a serial rapist.

Hillary passes out classified information like candy and she got a pass... Do you think the press would have ignored that criminal activity if a Republican had done the same? NO, they would NOT have ignored it.

The corrupt vile press actually protected us by stopping evil people from joining our ranks. We don't have the bad people democrats have... because the press 'told' evil people they would be outed if they were Republican. Proud supporter of President Trump and Israel! He keeps his promises and is not a weasel like those before him.

One of the women said that he hit her so hard it damaged her hearing. It was totally unexpected, totally not consensual.

Lemme see if I've got this right....Rats and the media knew, but stayed silent.... but not a single member of the GOP knew anything.

Riiiiiight.
