True Left

Our enemies used to complain that the only reason why leftists did not believe the sexual harassment allegations against Emmett Till was because Till was "black". Now they are complaining that leftists are not believing the sexual harassment allegations against Cuomo either:

From PoliticsNY (emphasis ours):

“It’s really unfortunate that the death of thousands of New Yorkers [in the nursing home scandal] had to take a back seat of allegations from white women. That the history of white women allegations is still given number one preference over anything,” said the source.

On the other hand, we believe all sexual harassment allegations against Trump. After all, Trump himself admitted to them.

Kat Timpf: There are so many investigations into Cuomo, he has to go


In Western civilization "innocent until proven guilty" is something Westerners just pay lip-service to, they obviously do not believe in it themselves. In Western civilization all you need is a slew of accusations and an investigation against you to be proven guilty.

The only time I've ever called the Police for myself is when someone made a false accusation against me. I made sure the truth got put down in writing and put into record, for the very reason I stated above!

Did I mention all Westerners are repulsive people who should be stopped from reproducing!?

Time's Up Leader CAUGHT Helping Andrew Cuomo

"The fallout from a damaging report that found Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo sexually harassed 11 women widened on Monday when Roberta A. Kaplan, a nationally prominent lawyer with ties to the governor, resigned from Time’s Up, the organization founded by Hollywood women to fight sexual abuse and promote gender equality."

Roberta Ann Kaplan (born 1966) is an American lawyer focusing on commercial litigation and public interest matters. She co-founded the Time's Up Legal Defense Fund and is an adjunct professor of law at Columbia University Law School.[1] She was a partner at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison before starting her own firm in 2017.

Kaplan successfully argued before the Supreme Court of the United States on behalf of LGBT rights activist Edith Windsor, in United States v. Windsor, a landmark decision that invalidated a section of the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act and required the federal government to recognize same-sex marriages.

A native of Cleveland, Ohio, Roberta Kaplan grew up in a Jewish household.[2] She graduated from Hawken School in Gates Mills, Ohio, in 1984. LGBT scholar and activist Aaron Belkin was Kaplan's high school friend and prom date.[3] She earned an B.A. in Russian history and literature from Harvard University in 1988. While in college she spent a semester abroad in Moscow and "discovered a passion for political activism when she became active in the movement to free Soviet Jewry".[4] She received her J.D. from Columbia Law School in 1991.[5]

Time's Up

In 2018, Kaplan co-founded the Time's Up Legal Defense Fund with Tina Tchen.[9] The fund has raised more than $24 million to provide legal defense for sexual violence victims, especially those who experienced misconduct in the workplace and led 780 attorneys and 50 cases under way.[10][11] In 2019, the pair later co-founded HABIT, an anti-sexual harassment advisory.[10]

On August 9, 2021, Kaplan resigned from her role as chairwoman of Time's Up, after she was named in the report released on August 3, 2021 by New York Attorney General Letitia James that followed the investigation of sexual harassment allegations against New York Governor Andrew Cuomo,[12][13][14] and after an open letter from a group of former Time's Up staffers and clients to the board of Time's Up was published.[15][16]

E. Jean Carroll defamation lawsuit

Main article: Donald Trump sexual misconduct allegations § E. Jean Carroll (1995 or 1996)

Kaplan represents writer E. Jean Carroll, who filed a defamation lawsuit against Trump on November 4, 2019. According to the Washington Post, Kaplan "said she intends to prove that Trump acted with 'malice,' meaning that he knew his statements were false or showed reckless disregard for the truth."[23]

The lawsuit was moved from state to federal court when the US Department of Justice moved to take over Trump's defense (a motion that was denied in October 2020.)[24] Kaplan said she welcomed pursuing the lawsuit in federal court.[24] Although the Department of Justice appealed that decision, Kaplan told reporters, "we are confident that the Second Circuit will affirm the District Court’s comprehensive and well-reasoned opinion."[25]

Mary Trump v. Donald Trump et al.

On September 24, 2020, Kaplan and her firm filed a lawsuit with the New York Supreme Court in Manhattan, on behalf of plaintiff Mary L. Trump, accusing President Donald J. Trump and his siblings, Maryanne Trump Barry and Robert Trump, of decades of financial fraud and civil conspiracy.[26][9]

Well, according to U.S. law Cuomo is still innocent. Sounds like Kaplan must really believe Cuomo is innocent as well, no?

Another blow to the "me too" movement.

He should look at Thai politicians. Allegations against them are futile to make them resign.

Cuomo has resigned, but Kavanaugh has not.

Consider also that the investigations into Cuomo appear to be more substantial than the investigations into the Republican politicians who (based on their own public statements(!) and evidence uncovered by investigative journalism) have been directly implicated in organizing a coup attempt.

However merited the allegations against Cuomo may be, the double standards of who gets a (real) investigation and who gets continuously 'pressured' until they actually end up resigning are shocking.

Now that the damage is already done and he's been removed from office mind you....

Groping Charge Dropped Against Ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo

Albany County District Attorney David Soares formally abandoned a forcible touching charge Friday filed against former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo after a former aide accused him of groping her at the executive mansion, the only criminal charge that he has faced tied to a wave of sexual misconduct allegations that drove him from office last year.

This is also how tabloids work and why they're so dangerous to society as a whole.

Here's some more potential western "horseplay":

Did Rudy Giuliani Grope a Former Trump White House Aide?

Former President Donald Trump’s White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson claims Rudy Giuliani groped her backstage during Trump's speech on January 6, 2021. Hutchinson makes the bombshell allegation in her new memoir, "Enough." Hutchinson says she was "filled with rage." However, a rep for Giuliani says "Mayor Rudy Giuliani will pursue all appropriate legal action against this disgusting lie."
