Put Ghislaine Maxwell on a “suicide” watch right now! 

Yes…, and maybe actually watch her…, that would help.

Jim Mustian and Larry Neumeister of the Associated Press report that, “Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell arrested in N.H.”

aghis 1

“British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell was arrested Thursday in Bradford, New Hampshire, on charges she helped lure at least three girls — one as young as 14 — to be sexually abused by the late financier Jeffrey Epstein, who was accused of victimizing dozens of girls and women over many years.”

“Ghislaine” is an uncommon name, to be sure, and I’ve heard it pronounced many ways.

“Ghislaine” is a French name, which should be pronounced (Jiss-len], although it has been pronounced [Jill-ain], [Gill-ain], [Jih-lane].

“According to the indictment, Maxwell, who lived for years with Epstein and was his frequent companion on trips around the world, facilitated his crimes and on some occasions joined him in sexually abusing the girls.”

“Epstein, 66, killed himself in a federal detention center in New York last summer while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.”

I believe the whole, he “killed himself” story is still open to debate.

Mustian and Neumeister report his “suicide” as unequivocal fact it seems, while I see Epstein’s death as a pretty apparent murder, or an “assisted suicide.”

“Maxwell has, for years, been accused by many women of acting as a madam for Epstein, helping him scout young girls for abuse, then hiring them to give him massages, during which the girls were pressured into sex acts. Those accusations, until now, never resulted in criminal charges.”

“The 58-year-old was arrested in Bradford, New Hampshire, where she was living on a wooded estate she purchased for $1 million last December. The FBI had been keeping tabs on her after she disappeared from public view following Epstein’s arrest a year ago.”

‘“More recently we learned she had slithered away to a gorgeous property in New Hampshire, continuing to live a life of privilege while her victims live with the trauma inflicted upon them years ago,’ William Sweeney, head of the FBI’s New York office, told a news conference Thursday.”

Wow…, why don’t you tell us how you really feel, Mr. Sweeney?!

“The indictment, which was unsealed Thursday, included counts of conspiracy to entice minors to travel to engage in illegal sex acts, enticement of a minor to travel to engage in illegal sex acts, conspiracy to transport minors with intent to engage in criminal sexual activity, transportation of a minor with intent to engage in criminal sexual activity.”

“She was also accused of perjuring herself during a deposition in a civil lawsuit over alleged abuse.”

“Messages were sent Thursday to several of Maxwell’s attorneys seeking comment. She has previously repeatedly denied wrongdoing and called some claims against her ‘absolute rubbish.’”

It’s my belief that we’ll find out that is exactly what you are, Ms. Maxwell…, “absolute rubbish.”

“Among the most sensational accusations was a claim by Virginia Roberts Giuffre that Maxwell arranged for her to have sex with Britain’s Prince Andrew at her London townhouse. Giuffre bolstered her allegations with a picture of her, Andrew and Maxwell that she said was taken at the time.”

aghis 15

“Andrew denied her story and Maxwell said in a deposition that Giuffre was ‘totally lying.’”

Really?

aghis 12

You mean Prince Andrew denied sexually assaulting underage girls?

Well, I’ll be!

aghis 14

“Maxwell is the daughter of a British publishing magnate Robert Maxwell, who died in 1991 after falling off his yacht near the Canary Islands. At the time, he was facing allegations that he had illegally looted pension funds from his businesses.”

I guess the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, does it?

“Maxwell was in an intimate relationship with Epstein for years and also was paid by him to manage his various properties, according to the indictment, which included a photograph of Epstein with his arm around Maxwell and his head nuzzling hers. Strauss, at the news conference, stood silent, pointing at the picture as news crews captured the moment.”

Audrey Strauss

“Epstein was initially investigated in Florida and pleaded guilty to state charges in 2008 that allowed him to avoid a lengthy prison sentence. He was free a little after a year in prison.”

“At the time, a federal prosecutor in Florida signed off on an agreement, initially filed in secret, that barred the federal government from charging ‘any potential co-conspirators of Epstein.’”

Well, that doesn’t stink at all, does it?

“Maxwell was described in a lawsuit by another Epstein victim, Sarah Ransome, as the ‘highest-ranking employee’ of Epstein’s alleged sex trafficking enterprise.”

According to Joshua Nelson of Fox News, “Former federal prosecutor Francey Hakes on Monday predicted that Jeffrey Epstein’s accused madam and former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell will plead guilty and start cooperating soon.”

aghis 2

“Hakes said Maxwell is facing an overwhelming amount of evidence against her.”

‘“Ghislaine Maxwell is maybe the last person left in the Jeffrey Epstein co-conspiracy that we know about,’ Hakes told ‘Fox & Friends.’”

“Hakes said that Maxwell is looking at a 10-year mandatory minimum sentence and a life sentence maximum. Hakes said Maxwell will likely cooperate ‘soon,’ including revealing names of others who were involved in the alleged sex trafficking ring.”

“Hakes doubted that Maxwell would refuse to cooperate, considering the possible penalties she’s facing.”

“She has to do every day of that minimum 10 years and she’s grown up a pampered, spoiled woman. There is no way that she would even consider going to jail for that length of time.”

Meanwhile, actress Rose McGowan is calling for Prince Andrew and Bill Clinton to be arrested next for their alleged ties to the late Epstein.

‘“Now get Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew,’ McGowan tweeted on Friday, just one day after Maxwell was captured by the FBI and NYPD in a rural New Hampshire town where she was hiding out.”

“The actress’ tweet was accompanied by a photo of Harvey Weinstein, Epstein and Maxwell standing side-by-side with red X’s over their faces.”

“Maxwell is facing multiple sex abuse charges stemming from an alleged sex trafficking conspiracy involving underage girls. In a six-count indictment unsealed after her arrest, prosecutors allege Maxwell enticed minors to travel to Epstein’s multiple residences – including a multi-story apartment on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, his residence in Palm Beach, Fla., and his ranch in Santa Fe, N.M. – and to Maxwell’s house in London.”

“Following Maxwell’s arrest, Audrey Strauss, acting U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, said she ‘would welcome Prince Andrew coming in to talk with us.’”

“Hakes said that though each charge is an allegation, Maxwell is likely facing an overwhelming amount of evidence against her in the case.”

‘“I think the U.S. attorney’s office has lots of evidence against her. There are at least three victims who all tell similar stories. There has been speculation in the media that Ghislaine Maxwell actually has video of some of these sexual assaults that have taken place over the years if that’s true, she will be providing that to the U.S. Attorney’s office,’ Hakes said.”

Shayna Jacobs, of The Washington Post, reports that, “Ghislaine Maxwell, the longtime companion of sex offender Jeffrey Epstein accused of facilitating his sexual abuse of teenage girls, has been transferred to a federal detention center in Brooklyn ahead of an arraignment and bail hearing that may come next week.”

aghis 7

“After Epstein’s death at Manhattan’s Metropolitan Correctional Center, where he was awaiting trial on federal sex-trafficking charges, the U.S. attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York vowed to pursue accomplices.”

“Maxwell…, is being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in the Sunset Park neighborhood of Brooklyn, the Bureau of Prisons said in an emailed response to questions. It’s unclear when she arrived in New York.”

“Both federal jails in New York City, where defendants are typically detained pending trial, have a reputation for their squalid conditions.”

These detention centers, in New York, also have other reputations as well…, like cameras being conveniently turned off, guards conveniently napping, etc.

If Ghislaine Maxwell ever gets the opportunity to “name names” in a courtroom, I will be extremely shocked.

In fact, I am guaranteeing, right now, that we will all be hearing about, in the very near future, how Ghislaine Maxwell chose to end her life in the same manner that her former partner in crime, Jeffrey Epstein did.

Like they say…, you can take that to the bank.

Her death will stink to high heaven, but the people behind her death won’t care about that a bit.  Anything is better than they themselves being exposed and brought up on charges.

Where money is no object, and there is a complicit media, anything can happen.

On a side note…, I felt it was worth bringing to my reader’s attention, Ghislaine Maxwell’s bizarre participation in an annual, liberal, women’s event.

aghis 6

Co-hosted by Sarah Brown, wife of the former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, designer Donna Karan, and Huffington Post cofounder Arianna Huffington, the Women: Inspiration and Enterprise (WIE) Symposium is a self-described, “modern, dynamic conference bringing together women and men [not so much men] from a wide spectrum of industries. The event is comprised of inspirational talks and panels, with high profile speakers and guests drawn from the worlds of politics, philanthropy, media, fashion and the arts.”

aghis 13

According to the WIE network, “The WIE Network was created in an effort to create a platform for current women leaders to inspire and empower the next generation of women. Prior WIE symposiums have attracted “inspiring” leaders [if you say so] such as Nancy Pelosi, Senator Kristen Gillibrand, Ted Turner, Melinda Gates and many more.”

“Beneficiaries of the symposiums include the White Ribbon Alliance.”

You can think of the White Ribbon Alliance as an international version of Planned Parenthood.

WIE, in all of its wisdom, selected Ghislaine Maxwell, as a “woman leader” to speak at their event in New York City in 2013.

I guess she could be considered as a “Pied Piper,” leading young girls into a career of “service.”

I would sure be interested in hearing Maxwell’s attempt to “inspire and empower the next generation of women.”

aghis 11

I’m sure she encouraged any especially young attendees to see her personally after her time on stage.

CNN is MIA!

Again?

Yes…, “CNN is missing in action on Biden assault accuser Tara Reade’s story.”

aaccuser 6

And they’re not the only media outlet missing in action.

The rest of the fake news media is choosing to turn its back on this story as well.

aaccuser 2

According to Joseph A. Wulfsohn of Fox News, “It has been nearly three weeks [over three weeks now] since former congressional staffer Tara Reade spoke out about her 1993 sexual assault accusation against former Vice President Joe Biden, but it wasn’t until Easter Sunday that it began receiving any attention from the mainstream media.”

“And if you only watch CNN, you still haven’t heard about it.”

aaccuser 16

“For 18 days, as the coronavirus outbreak dominated the news cycle, Reade’s claim was not covered by the biggest media outlets following her March 25 interview with progressive podcast host Katie Halper. CNN, MSNBC and the three broadcast networks did not offer any on-air coverage or articles on their websites about the alleged assault. The New York Times and The Washington Post, two papers that dedicated extensive reporting to sex assault allegations made against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in 2018, were also mum on the matter.”

That, folks, is what we call propaganda by omission…, as well as “selective outrage.”

aaccuser 4

“In addition, in seven televised interviews [Creepy Joe] Biden has done since Reade came forward with her allegation, he was never asked about it. This includes three interviews on MSNBC, two appearances on CNN and appearances on the Sunday morning news shows on ABC and NBC. Prominent anchors like Anderson Cooper, Chuck Todd and George Stephanopoulos never questioned the presumptive Democratic nominee, instead focusing on the pandemic and President Trump’s handling of the crisis.”

Never asked about it.

“The absence of reporting from these outlets was notable enough for the satirical news site ‘The Onion’ to address, mocking the Times on Thursday with the headline: ‘New York Times’ Pledges To Cover Biden Sexual Assault Allegations in Upcoming Crossword.’”

onion-bush

“The tides began to shift following Rich McHugh’s report in Business Insider on Friday that Reade had filed a criminal complaint against Biden. The New York Times ran its first report about the allegation on Sunday morning as millions of Americans were observing Easter. The Washington Post and NBC News issued their own reports later that day.”

“NewsBusters managing editor Curtis Houck blasted the ‘slowness’ of the media’s reporting on Reade’s allegation and insisted that the timing of the recent reports was suspect.”

‘“The liberal media’s slowness has provided a whole new meaning to the term [dragged in] “kicking and screaming,” because that’s exactly how the press have approached Reade’s story. Not only have they deceptively tried to sneak this in to coincide with Easter, but they’ve displayed shameful skepticism and even disgust when evaluating her,’ Houck told Fox News. ‘Most disturbingly, the Times chose to allow the Biden campaign to edit their story, and it illustrated the depths to which the press will go to show that Biden is no Brett Kavanaugh.’”

Quite different as to how the fake news media, the democrats, and liberals everywhere treated Kavanaugh accusers Christine Blasey Ford, Deborah Ramirez and Julie Swetnick.

aaccuser 5

Yes, quite different, like completely different.

Where is the daily, and non-stop, media outrage?

Where are the daily protests in front of The Supreme Court?

Where is the concern for women’s voices to be heard?

Do you remember the “#METOO” movement?

Well, that movement has become the #METOO (only if my accusations do not pose any harm to the current liberal narrative and/or democrat candidates).

aaccuser 8

My last comment isn’t intended to be funny.  I’m only dragging the democrat’s blatant hypocrisy out into the sunlight for all to see, and stating what should be the obvious.

Can anyone, who is at least a little fair-minded, not recognize and acknowledge this?

aaccuser 7

“The Times raised eyebrows on Sunday after it deleted a tweet and tweaked its report about the 1993 accusation made by former Biden staffer Tara Reade, which originally read, ‘No other allegation about sexual assault surfaced in the course of reporting, nor did any former Biden staff members corroborate any details of Ms. Reade’s allegation. The Times found no pattern of sexual misconduct by Mr. Biden, beyond the hugs, kisses and touching that women previously said made them uncomfortable.’”

Some people may say, “All the way back in 1993…, that’s 27 years ago!”

But please let me remind you that Kavanaugh’s accusers dated all the way back to when he was in high school and college!

Creepy Joe Biden was a U.S. Senator, for 20 years already, at the time of Reade’s accusations.

“No correction or editor’s note was made in the report, but the Times later explained the deleted tweet, saying, ‘We’ve deleted a tweet in this thread that had some imprecise language that has been changed in the story.’”

“Imprecise language,” huh?

I haven’t heard that exact terminology before.

I’ll have to ad that to my “liberal dictionary!”

“Imprecise language” is that wording which has not been sufficiently spun, so as to put a liberal or a liberal narrative in the most advantageous and positive light.

“Dean Baquet, the Times’ executive editor, suggested on Monday that the change was influenced by the Biden campaign.”

‘“Even though a lot of us, including me, had looked at it before the story went into the paper, I think that the campaign thought that the phrasing was awkward and made it look like there were other instances in which he had been accused of sexual misconduct, and that’s not what the sentence was intended to say,’ Baquet said.”

And, of course, Dean, you give President Trump the opportunity to correct phrasing that is “awkward” when you report about him or his administration, don’t you?

That’s a rhetorical question, Mr. Baquet…, don’t sweat the answer.

“Actress Rose McGowan, one of the sexual assault victims of disgraced film mogul Harvey Weinstein, took aim at the Post over its report on Reade.”

aaccuser 9

‘“This is not journalism, this is an agenda. This is a hit piece. You’ve sunk to a new low in slanted journalism and victim shaming @WashingtonPost,’ McGowan tweeted.”

‘“As a survivor, the way you launched into this woman’s assault is truly vile,’ McGowan added. ‘Your motto is “Democracy Dies in Darkness” well I guess it’s dead because you are dark. Evil lives and it loves the DNC.

@rosemcgowan’”

Good for you Rose McGowan!

I haven’t agreed with some of your stances in the past, but congratulations on nailing this one right on the head and recognizing this whole situation for what it is…, a liberal propaganda, hypocritical, mess.

“Meanwhile, despite the partial dam that broke within the mainstream media, CNN and CBS News have yet to offer any [ANY] coverage of the story both on-air and online, according to searches of their telecasts and Internet archives.”

aaccuser 3

“McHugh, who broke the story on Reade’s filed criminal complaint against Biden, was formerly the producer at NBC News who teamed with Ronan Farrow to break the Harvey Weinstein scandal in 2017, which was ultimately killed by the network.”

‘“After interviewing Tara on multiple occasions, I interviewed two of the people she told back in 1993 — her friend and her younger brother. I found them both extremely credible and they corroborated her story to me. So when Tara filed a criminal complaint, and told me she was willing to go under oath, it was clear her claims needed to be reported. Simple as that,’ McHugh told Fox News.”

“Reade initially stepped forward last year, when multiple women emerged claiming inappropriate touching by Biden. Reade, at the time, claimed Biden put his hands on her shoulders and rubbed his fingers up and down her neck, but the story got no traction aside from an article in a local newspaper.”

“In late-March, Reade told a far more graphic account, with different and more serious details, raising the allegation to the level of sexual assault.”

“Reade’s story first resurfaced in an article in The Intercept. Podcast host Katie Halper then interviewed Reade, who said that in 1993, a more senior member of Biden’s staff asked her to bring the then-senator his gym bag near the Capitol building, which led to the encounter in question.”

‘“He greeted me, he remembered my name, and then we were alone. It was the strangest thing,’ Reade told Halper. ‘There was no like, exchange really. He just had me up against the wall.’”

“Reade said she tried to share her story last year, but nobody listened to her. This past Thursday, she filed a criminal complaint against Biden with police in Washington, D.C.”

“The Biden campaign vehemently denied Reade’s allegation.”

Like they always do…, lie, lie, lie, deny, deny, deny.

‘“Women have a right to tell their story, and reporters have an obligation to rigorously vet those claims. We encourage them to do so, because these accusations are false,’ Kate Bedingfield, the deputy campaign manager and communications director for the Biden campaign, said in a statement to Fox News.”

Just empty words, Kate…, just empty words.

Howard Kurtz of Fox News adds, “The woman who says Joe Biden sexually assaulted her a quarter century ago certainly has some weaknesses and discrepancies in her account.  But Tara Reade has more corroboration for her claim than Christine Blasey Ford did when she made her accusations against Brett Kavanaugh in the fall of 2018.  And yet the differences in the way the media treated both cases are stark, raising unmistakable questions of a double standard.”

aaccuser 11

“Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez just endorsed Biden, but said of the allegations at a public forum: ‘I think it’s legitimate to talk about these things. And if we want, if we, again, want to have integrity, you can’t say, you know — both believe women, support all of this, until it inconveniences you, until it inconveniences us.’”

aaccuser 10

That’s my girl, AOC!

My reaction to some recent headlines about the Electoral College, AOC and the 22nd Amendment, DNC Chair calls Republican lawmakers “cowardly,” Joe Biden’s behavior with women, and did the NY Times and The Washington Post help elect President Trump!?

There are so many topics I’d like to offer my insight on, but so little time!

Senate democrats introduce measure to abolish Electoral College.

“Would election by popular vote be better than the Electoral College?”

“A group of Democratic senators on Tuesday introduced a measure to do away with the Electoral College, picking up on a talking point that has caught fire in the 2020 Democratic presidential field.”

“According to NBC News: ‘Leading Democratic senators are expected to introduce a constitutional amendment Tuesday to abolish the Electoral College, adding momentum to a long-shot idea that has been gaining steam among 2020 presidential candidates.’”

“…changing the Constitution is seen as virtually impossible today. A constitutional amendment may be proposed by a two-thirds supermajority in both the House (about 290 votes) and Senate (67 votes) and requires ratification by 38 states.”

As is usually the case with the democrat party, what we have here is either disingenuous political grandstanding, uninformed ignorance, or a combination of the two.  I’m going to give them some credit and say it’s disingenuous political grandstanding for the most part, since actually amending the Constitution would never happen, mostly due to the requirement of having 38 states go along with it.

So…, in the grand scheme of things, it’s kind of like “The Green New Deal,” a bunch of noise that ain’t never going to happen.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Liz Cheney disagree over knowledge of 22nd Amendment, Constitution.

“[Liz] Cheney, R-WY, took issue with a comment [Alexandria] Ocasio-Cortez, D-NY, made during a recent MSNBC town hall event in which the freshman congresswoman talked about Democrats being in control of Congress in the 1930s and 1940s.”

‘“When our party was boldest, the time of the New Deal, the Great Society, the Civil Rights Act and so on, we had, and carried, supermajorities in the House, in the Senate. We carried the presidency,’ she told MSNBC’s Chris Hayes.”

‘“They had to amend the Constitution of the United States to make sure (President Franklin D.) Roosevelt did not get reelected,’ Ocasio-Cortez continued.”

“In response to Ocasio-Cortez’s remarks, Cheney tweeted: ‘We knew the Democrats let dead people vote. According to AOC, they can run for president too!’”

“The New Yorker then fired off her own response. ‘Hey Rep. Cheney, I see from your dead people comment that you get your news from Facebook memes, but the National Constitution Center + Newsweek are just two of many places where you can clarify your misunderstanding of the history of the 22nd Amendment,’ she wrote.”

“Roosevelt died while in office in 1945 and the 22nd Amendment was proposed by Congress in 1947.  The Amendment reads, “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some of other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.”

I think we can safely score this:

Representative Liz Cheney………..ONE

Representative Ocasio-Cortez…….ZERO

DNC Chair Tom Perez calls Republican lawmakers “cowardly,” says they will be “judged harshly” by history

“Democratic National Committee Chair Tom Perez launched a stunning attack on Republican lawmakers, saying history will “judge” them for supporting President Trump.”

What’s so “stunning” about that?  I hear much worse on a daily basis directed at President Trump, republicans and various conservatives.

‘“The reason why we [Democrats] are winning, and we won at scale in 2018, is because our message is clear. Our message was: we are the ones who actually have your back on the issues that really matter. Healthcare, education. He said he had your back, but actually he had a knife in your back,’ Perez said.”

The truth is the democrats under performed in the 2018 midterms, and by any measure we can say the democrats do not “have our back.”  The democrats, most recently led by Barack Obama, sold America and Americans out.  They gave away our jobs, our wealth, our respect around the world, and our American soul.

“The DNC chair continued that President Trump found success in 2016 by putting ‘fear on the ballot,’ and that Republican lawmakers who have supported his policies over the last three years are ‘cowards’ who have allowed damage to be done to their part.”

That’s a good one Tom!  The democrats are historically the party of fear.  How many times have we heard “the republicans will gut social security,” due to the republicans, millions will die without healthcare, our children will starve and grandma will be left out on the street!?

We didn’t need President Trump to “put fear on the ballot” in 2016, we were all scared already that our country was going down the drain. And rightly so.

‘“I mean, history will not only judge Donald Trump harshly. It will judge Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan and all the other cowards who refused to stand up to this president and allowed the party of Lincoln to die. They will be judged harshly because whatever he says goes right now.’”

I feel more correctly, “history” will judge these times as the times of the great liberal lies.  The times of liberal propaganda and the times of the corrupt and biased media who backed them up rather than do their jobs as watchdogs for We the People.

Pelosi: Biden didn’t know “the world we’re in now.”

“House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi is the most high-profile Democrat to come to the defense of former Vice President Joe Biden’s ‘affectionate demeanor,’ Peter Doocy reports from Washington.”

Ha! “Affectionate demeanor!?”  Is that what we’re calling “Uncle Joe’s” creepy behavior now?

And according to Politico (a news journalism company), “Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Tuesday that she does not think the allegations against Joe Biden of unwelcome contact are disqualifying for a 2020 run, but that the former vice president should be more aware of others’ personal space. ‘I don’t think it’s disqualifying,’ Pelosi said… ‘He has to understand in the world that we’re in now that people’s space is important to them, and what’s important is how they receive it and not necessarily how you intended it.’ … Pelosi pushed back against the tone of former vice president’s apologies. ‘It is how it’s received, so to say, ‘I’m sorry that you were offended’ is not an apology,’ the California Democrat said. ‘‘I’m sorry I invaded your space,’ but not, ‘I’m sorry you were offended.’ What’s that? That’s not accepting the fact that people think differently about communication.’”

I’m a little confused.  Is she coming to Joe’s defense or is she scolding him?

National Public Radio (NPR) noted, “On the most obvious level, complaints of this kind renew the criticism of Biden’s past performance on issues affecting women and people of color, the two constituencies likely to matter most in choosing the next Democratic nominee.”

As usual with the democrats, us poor white guys are treated like second class citizens.

“Perceptions of Biden as ‘old school’ or ‘old fashioned’ are not just liabilities to be shed. They are also the basis of his appeal to many older, white, working-class Democrats and independents.”

The democrat party can say what they want about the new breed of democrat-socialists out there; Joe Biden leads in the polls for president, and he hasn’t even officially declared yet!

“Biden’s advisers believe coverage of allegations of inappropriate behavior is being stoked by rival Democrats…”

No kidding.

That basically leaves one guy…, and I can hear ‘em now, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie.

New York Post: How the New York Times, Washington Post helped get Trump elected.

“If either paper had done the sort of digging on Hillary Clinton that they did on Trump, then Clinton would never have been the presidential nominee for the Democratic Party.”

headlines 2

True.  And actually, “If either paper had done the sort of digging on Hillary Clinton that they did on Trump,” she would be in jail, along with a lot of her friends.

“So, in a different scenario, if the Times and the Washington Post probe Clinton, alert the public to all of her ‘problems’ then the Democrats are forced to pick someone else as their candidate.  In that case, Trump might not have won.”

In reality, Mr. Crudele, anything “might” have happened.  It really annoys me these days when reporters say, “this might happen,” or that “could happen,” or this “may” happen.

Here’s some news for all of you journalism majors: ANYTHING “MIGHT,”  “COULD,” OR “MAY” HAPPEN!  THAT’S NOT NEWS!

Thank God we have “Google” around to be our social conscience (I’m being very sarcastic by the way).   

(Please refer to my two previous blogs regarding our friends at “Google,” dated September 24, 2018 and September 17, 2018 for a little background.)

When I “google” “#METOO,” why do I get a program error?

When I “goggle” “sexual misconduct at Google,” why does it come back saying, “Did you mean: sexual misconduct at the GOP?”

A couple of weeks ago, The (failing) New York Times detailed the alleged misconduct of senior executives, as well as Google’s admission that it fired 48 people for sexual harassment over the past two years.

What’s going on over there!?  And who are these people?

Did they hire Harvey Weinstein while we weren’t looking?  How about Matt Lauer?

Do they have a hiring pipeline of Penn State alumnae?  Michigan State?  Former US Olympic Gymnastic coaches?

Google employees abandoned their desks and staged a 10 minute walkout, at Google office all over the world, in protest of the company’s handling of sexual misconduct allegations.

The campaign has been dubbed “The Google Walkout For Real Change,” and the first walkouts occurred at their offices in Singapore, Zürich, Switzerland and London.

Google is headquartered in “whacky” California, of course, and has 78 offices in the US and around the world (Do they really need that many offices to run a search engine?).

Anyway, campaign organizers have said they were “disgusted” by the details of The New York Times report.  They said “it is an example of a culture of complicity, dismissiveness, and support for perpetrators in the face of sexual harassment, misconduct, and abuse of power.”

These are pretty harsh and damning allegations!

Not at Google!  Say it ain’t so!

Not at such a forward thinking, thoughtful, liberal, gender and racially considerate company like Google!

Google has always been considered “cutting edge” regarding company culture and work environment.  Google was considered revolutionary for maximizing a flexible working atmosphere for improved productivity.  Rubber exercise balls used for office chairs, cubicle free offices, wooden doors held by saw horses acting as desks, multicolored lava lamps and dogs roaming the halls led to a “comfortable” work place.  This environment proved to be highly effective in increasing the creative output of its employees.

Google hired a “company chef,” who introduced the staff to health conscious and energy boosting recipes. There were weekly roller hockey games in the parking lot and weekly “TGIF meetings.”  The free and informal atmosphere supposedly led to an easier exchange of ideas.

The free and informal atmosphere has apparently led to more than just an easier exchange of ideas!

Google employees have a list of five demands for change.  Here they are in the campaign’s own words:

An end to Forced Arbitration in cases of harassment and discrimination for all current and future employees.

A commitment to end pay and opportunity inequity.

A publicly disclosed sexual harassment transparency report.

A clear, uniform, globally inclusive process for reporting sexual misconduct safely and anonymously.

Elevate the Chief Diversity Officer to answer directly to the CEO and make recommendations directly to the Board of Directors.  Appoint an Employee Rep to the Board.

I’m really surprised by these demands…, not because they are so “over the top,” but because they are such “no brainers.”

How can a company be so “cutting edge” on one hand and anchored in the Middle Ages on the other?

Do they have an “HR” department at Google?  I assume they do.  If so, what have they been doing?  Were they all too busy bouncing around on their rubber exercise balls?

Google CEO, Sundar Pichai, said he and management support the protest and are listening to staff.

Isn’t that nice?!

He also said, “We let ‘Googlers’ know that we are aware of the activities planned for Thursday and that employees will have the support they need if they wish to participate.”

Isn’t that nice again?!

“Employees have raised constructive ideas for how we can improve our policies and our processes going forward.  We are taking in all their feedback so we can turn these ideas into action.”

Here are some of their constructive ideas (leaked exclusively to MrEricksonRules.com) to improve the company’s policies:

“Executives should be required to at least throw a blanket on top of their desk before throwing employees on them and having their way with them.”

“Executives should be required to follow through with promised increases in pay and/or promotions after “services” have been officially rendered.”

“Executives should be required to leave their office door unlocked before choosing to chase their secretaries around the office, in an effort to demonstrate fairness, and the potential opportunity for the secretary to escape.”

These “constructive ideas” all seem quite reasonable, don’t they?

Sundar Pichai and Larry Page, the CEO of Google’s parent company Alphabet, both apologized to staff last week for the company’s record on sexual misconduct.  Pichai reinforced that apology in an email to staff this week.

Isn’t it nice to know that Sundar and Larry offered their sincerest apologies?

They’re sorry alright.  Sorry they got caught!

The seriousness of these accusations coupled with mass employee walkouts would seem to call for more than just apologies!

Perhaps Sundar and/or Larry need to be shown the door, along with a few of their friends!

Perhaps Google executives should worry about their own behavior before worrying about manipulating search results in order to mute conservative viewpoints and push liberal leaning results!

Perhaps Google executives should stop claiming to know what’s best for the rest of us when they can’t even keep their pants on at work!

The unabashed hypocrisy demonstrated by liberal “know-it-alls” never ceases to amaze me.

I’m sure we won’t have to wait too long for our next installment of “As the World Googles.”

Stay tuned.
