'I'm ashamed I didn't say anything back then': Jane Fonda says she found out about Harvey Weinstein's reign of terror ONE year ago




"Ashamed"?



Didn't know she knew the meaning of the word.

Fonda 1972 Vietnam... siding with the enemy.... aka as treason!








The topper.






---------------------------------------------------






Jane Fonda has admitted she found out last year that Harvey Weinstein had been sexually harassing Hollywood women and is ashamed she didn't speak up earlier. 

More than 30 women have now come forward with allegations of sexual harassment against the Hollywood producer who was once described as the 'God' of the film industry. 

The accusations, including from some of the world's most famous actresses, range from inappropriate messages to rape and date back nearly three decades.

While Fonda says she wasn't harassed by Weinstein, she was told of his abuse last year by one of his victims.



The hypocrisy on the left is beyond the pale.
 Sure to see Baldwin play Weinstein on SNL right?

Hillary caves in and says she WILL give Weinstein's campaign donations to charity, six days after the scandal first broke








Sure she will. We’re talking about a Clinton! I want to know what charity, what amount, and I want to see a representative of that charity with check in hand.



Meanwhile, she cracked me up with this remark.

"I was shocked and appalled by the revelations about Harvey Weinstein," Clinton said in a statement through her spokesman Nick Merrill. "The behavior described by women coming forward cannot be tolerated. Their courage and the support of others is critical in helping to stop this kind of behavior.”

This coming from the former Flotus who’s husband got a BJ in the Oval Office!

--------------------------------- 


Hillary Clinton says she is giving the Democratic donations Harvey Weinstein gave her- to charity.

Clinton, who remained silent for five days after the Weinstein scandal broke, told CNN Wednesday 'There's no one to give it back to. What other people are saying, what my former colleagues are saying, is that they're going to donate it to charity, and of course, I will do that.'


Clinton added 'I give 10 percent of my income to charity every year, this will be part of that. There's no doubt about it.' 

Weinstein raised and donated hundreds of thousands of dollars for Clinton, going back to her first campaign for a U.S. Senate seat in New York. 



Bundler: Harvey Weinstein was a huge Hillary Clinton backer, hosting New York fundraisers and maxing out his own donations to her campaign


Then, of course, we have this. Hollywood’s hypocritical fake loathing over Harvey Weinstein his great friend Meryl Streep, who called Weinstein 'God' at an awards ceremony. Streep, eventually, after four days of silence, described the revelations as 'disgraceful'.








  This is the same moralizing Meryl Streep who sprang to her feet to give Roman Polanski a child rapist a standing ovation at the 2003 Academy Awards.

Move over confederacy...here comes the pronouns



New California Law Allows Prison Time for Workers Who Use Wrong Gender Pronoun

A newly signed California law allows state health care workers who "willfully and repeatedly" refuse to use a senior transgender patient's "preferred name or pronouns" to face punishments ranging from a fine to prison time.

California Gov. Jerry Brown (D.) signed the legislation on Friday, enacting the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Long-Term Care Facility Residents' Bill of Rights, Fox News reported Monday.

The legislation, sponsored by Democratic state Sen. Scott Wiener, seeks to protect the rights of LGBT individuals in hospitals, retirement homes, and assisted living facilities.

Under the law, long-term care facilities for the elderly in California are not allowed to take certain actions on the basis of one's sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, or HIV status, including referring to a patient by the wrong name or pronoun. These facilities also cannot consider the aforementioned factors when a patient is being admitted, transferred, evicted, or discharged.

The legislation reads, in part:


Among other things, the bill would make it unlawful, except as specified, for any long-term care facility to take specified actions wholly or partially on the basis of a person's actual or perceived sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) status, including, among others, willfully and repeatedly failing to use a resident's preferred name or pronouns after being clearly informed of the preferred name or pronouns, or denying admission to a long-term care facility, transferring or refusing to transfer a resident within a facility or to another facility, or discharging or evicting a resident from a facility.

Violators of the law could be punished by a fine "not to exceed one thousand dollars" or "by imprisonment in the county jail for a period not to exceed one year," or both, according to Fox News.

But Wiener has said that nobody will be criminally prosecuted for using the wrong pronoun.

"It's just more scare tactics by people who oppose all LGBT civil rights and protections," he said in a statement last month.

Wiener's office said the new law "does not create any new criminal provisions," but rather creates "new rights within an existing structure."

Greg Burt of the California Family Council opposes the new law and spoke out against the bill in it early stages before the California Assembly Judiciary Committee in August.

"How can you believe in free speech, but think the government can compel people to use certain pronouns when talking to others," Burt said. "Compelled speech is not free speech … True tolerance tolerates people with different views."

Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh's son came out as gay to his father in the wake of Donald Trump's election win because he was 'scared'




Another reason to hate Michigan. Not only is Harbaugh's son a fruit... worse yet he was a Bernie supporter.


----------------------------------


James Harbaugh Jr., the son of Michigan head football coach Jim Harbaugh, came out to his father after President Donald Trump's election win last November and received an uplifting response.

'I just it blurted out – and told him for the first time verbatim – 'Dad, I'm gay. Do you know that?' James told the Two Outs podcast this week. 'And because of that, this is why X,Y, Z. I'm scared because of this, that and the other.

'And he just said something else back, it was an encouraging and uplifting response about how you just need to keep your head up,' James continued. '"As long as you do what you feel is right in your mind, you live your truth, everything will end up being OK."'

James currently attends University of Michigan's School of Music, Theatre & Dance, where he is working towards his BFA in directing.

The son, grandson, and nephew of football coaches, James said that he never felt out of place on the field or around the players.

'I think there was an obvious sense of feeling out-of-place in society in general,' James said. 'But I never felt aware of being uncomfortable around my dad's teams. If anything, I was way more self-aware of the fact that I was a mouse at 6-foot-1, compared to these 6-foot-5 giants when I would try and eat in their meal sessions at away games. I was more concerned about being stepped on than my sexuality.'
As long as you do what you feel is right in your mind, you live your truth, everything will end up being OK.

James also credited his father with introducing him to musical theater when the family lived in the Bay Area while Jim coached Stanford's football team and, later, the San Francisco 49ers.

'In 2005, when he was at Stanford, he took the family — my sister, stepmom and I — we went and saw 'Wicked' in San Francisco,' said James. 'I was blown away by it. I was probably 12 at the time. I remember thinking, "Wow, this is so incredible. I would love to be a part of something that makes people feel this way, something that feels so magical and amazing."'

The 53-year-old Jim has a 44–22–1 record as an NFL coach and an 82-33 mark in the collegiate ranks.

I'm sure Harbaugh Sr. never saw it coming.
No really...



As a player, he was known for quarterbacking the Chicago Bears and Indianapolis Colts to the playoffs.

Since following his own father into the coaching ranks, Jim has routinely been ridiculed for his preference for khakis – a fashion choice he seems to make regardless of the weather or occasion.

'They're hideous,' James joked.

Wouldn't be tossing the word 'hideous' around considering his lifestyle.

'You see him on the field and doing interviews,' James continued. 'But he comes home, and it's full-on. He's still wearing them, sometimes. And then if he ever varies from it, it will be equally as bad. He'll have on a full-on sweatsuit, and then his Crocs with socks. There's no better alternative. You almost want him to go back to the khakis.'

The Michigan Wolverines are currently 4-0 heading into Saturday's matchup with the rival Michigan State Spartans.
