  • Matt Gaetz Reportedly Showed Off Naked Photos of Women He Slept With to Members of Congress

    04/01/2021 5:20:29 PM PDT · by springwater13 · 168 replies
    Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) allegedly showed fellow lawmakers on the House floor photos and videos of naked women he said he had sex with, according to a new report from CNN. The new report is not related to the DOJ investigation. It seems Gaetz’s colleagues in the House are using the opportunity of the scandal to leak details about his alleged behavior as a congressman. The sources, including two people directly shown the material, said Gaetz displayed the images of women on his phone and talked about having sex with them. One of the videos showed a naked woman with...

    Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax, who has been accused of sexually assaulting two women, is quitting the law firm where he works in Northern Virginia, a spokeswoman confirmed Tuesday. Fairfax, who has adamantly denied the allegations and demanded criminal investigations in the cities where the women say the assaults occurred — Boston and Durham, N.C. — was placed on leave from the law firm Morrison and Foerster in February after the allegations emerged. Morrison and Foerster has been independently investigating the allegations, and Fairfax said in a statement Tuesday the firm could not confirm the accusations. “It has been an honor...

    Commenting on Christine Blasey Ford's allegation that Brett Kavanaugh assaulted her at a beer party some 36 years ago and that the FBI must investigate the matter now before she will testify about the supposed incident, Juanita Broaddrick tweeted that if the FBI goes back that far then it must also "investigate my RAPE allegations against Bill Clinton, too." "If you want the FBI to go back that far @HillaryClinton @MSNBC to investigate Ford's allegations .... let's investigate my RAPE allegations against Bill Clinton, too. Seems only fair," Broaddrick tweeted on Sept. 18.

    GRAND RAPIDS, MI -- A story about a white man urinating on a 5-year-old black child and calling her a racial slur was fabricated, police said. Grand Rapids police and prosecutors late Friday, Aug. 24 said they determined the story was not valid and said no charges would be issued against a 60-year-old man arrested following the initial report on Wednesday. Police said several children, all 7 or younger, were playing together sometime before 6 p.m. Wednesday when one of the children urinated on the 5-year-old girl. Kent County prosecutors said the parents of the children, in talking with them,...

    Charleston, W.Va., Apr 19, 2012 / 11:20 am (CNA/EWTN News).- Bishop Michael J. Bransfield of Wheeling-Charelston, W.Va. denied allegations of sex abuse against him during April 18 court proceedings in the criminal trial against a Pennsylvania priest. “To now be unfairly included in that group and to hear the horrific allegations that are being made of me is unbelievable and shocking,” Bishop Bransfield said in an April 19 statement. A witness in the trial against Monsignor William Lynn – who is accused of covering up sex abuse accusations within the Philadelphia Archdiocese – told the court that he was sexually...

    A new poll shows Herman Cain neck and neck with Mitt Romney, even after sexual harassment allegations surfaced against Cain. But is he out of the woods yet? It’s Day 5 since allegations burst into the media that Herman Cain sexually harassed female employees in the late 1990s when he ran the National Restaurant Association. And notably, the GOP presidential contender's poll numbers haven’t budged. In fact, the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll – conducted in the days after the harassment allegations surfaced – shows Mr. Cain’s numbers among Republicans have risen over the past month. He is now at...

    The top Republican on the House Oversight committee is demanding answers from the White House about whether it offered Rep. Joe Sestak (D-Pa.) a job to drop out of his state’s Senate primary. This time Rep. Darrell Issa’s (R-Calif.) target is White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs. Issa, for the past few weeks, has been seeking information about whether the Obama administration broke the law in offering Sestak an appointed position to drop out of his battle to unseat Sen. Arlen Specter (D-Pa.) in a primary. Earlier this month Issa sent White House general counsel Robert Bauer demanding answers about...

    My wife was listening to Glenn Beck’s radio program, this morning. She informs me that Glenn Beck says that the White House called his “red phone” yesterday at the end of his FOX News TV show. Evidently, the White House was upset that Glenn Beck interviewed Michael Goldfarb, author of the Offutt AFB closure threat report. In the interview, Goldfarb stood by his report. Glenn Beck, prefacing the story as a rumor, also stated that he confirmed this story with three sources. But, the White House vociferously denies the story.

    WASHINGTON – House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Friday she won't talk any more about her charge that the CIA lied in 2002 about using waterboarding on terrorism suspects. "I have made the statement that I'm going to make on this," she told reporters at a Capitol Hill news conference. "I don't have anything more to say about it. I stand by my comment." But Republicans aren't letting this one slide. Ken Spain, spokesman for the National Republican Congressional Committee, issued a statement after the news conference calling Pelosi a political liability to the Democratic party.

    US MILITARY officials fear that religious hurdles in exhuming the body of a teenage girl could complicate the prosecution of American soldiers accused of raping and murdering her. The officials said a vigorous prosecution was essential and punishment should be severe if the five servicemen and one former soldier were convicted. Five soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division are accused of raping and murdering Abeer al-Janabi near the town of Mahmoudiya on March 12. A sixth soldier is accused of failing to report the crime. Three of her family members were also killed in the assault. The victim's male relatives...

    STAMFORD, Conn. - Adversaries called on the mayor of Connecticut's largest city to resign Monday, while supporters urged him to specifically address allegations he used cocaine. Bridgeport Mayor John Fabrizi, a Democrat, was named in an FBI report that surfaced last week in which an alleged drug dealer claimed an associate had a videotape of the mayor using cocaine. Fabrizi said he had made "poor choices in the past" but declined to be more specific. U.S. Attorney Kevin O'Connor has said Fabrizi was not a target of the drug investigation. FBI reports, which summarize statements made by witnesses but are...

    Four days before California’s recall election and just hours after saying he had “behaved badly” towards some women in the past, California gubernatorial candidate Arnold Schwarzenegger faced a new allegation: that he once said he admired Adolf Hitler “for what he did.” The actor said he did not recall ever praising the Nazi dictator, and the man making the allegations did later raise the possibility that Schwarzenegger was misquoted. GEORGE BUTLER, a film producer who documented Schwarzenegger’s body building career in the 1975 movie “Pumping Iron,” shopped a book proposal on the Republican’s life six years ago, parts of which...
