A Minnesota Republican lawmaker is under fire for sending abusive texts to a female colleague and reportedly sexually assaulting a female lobbyist in his office while insisting she help him with his “raging b*ner.”
According to the City Paper, state Rep. Tony Cornish under attack after he was accused of sending unwanted sexual comments to Rep. Erin Maye Quade (DFL), who provided text messages to a local paper.
Late Thursday night, Cornish had his chairmanship of the House Public Safety Committee suspended by House Speaker Kurt Daudt (R) while the allegations are being investigated.
More damning, however, are charges from a female lobbyist, who wished to remain anonymous, who claimed Cornish stalked her and solicited her for sex for over a year, once physically grabbing her in his office while trying to kiss her.
According to the woman, Cornish once blocked her from leaving his office, repeatedly telling her, “I have a raging boner. You can’t leave.”
What is wrong with men?
And it is not just Republican men, Kevin Spacey, Louis CK, Harvey Weinstein are all guilty as well.
It is like men with any power whatsoever feel that it gives them the right to force women, girls, or even young men, to see, touch, or interact sexually with their penises.
It doesn't.
And it also seems as if the very worst one is currently representing our country while occupying the people's house.
You know perhaps it is time to clean house, and eject these pussy grabbing douchebags from whatever positions of power they currently inhabit.
Maybe ultimately THIS will be the legacy of the Trump presidency.
For women to finally rise up and say "enough is enough" and to start holding their former abusers accountable and to send a message to any future abusers that they are done being a victim.
