Hillary Clinton Chose to Shield a Top Adviser Accused of Harassment in 2008

[quote]WASHINGTON — A senior adviser to Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign who was accused of repeatedly sexually harassing a young subordinate was kept on the campaign at Mrs. Clinton’s request, according to four people familiar with what took place. Mrs. Clinton’s campaign manager at the time recommended that she fire the adviser, Burns Strider. But Mrs. Clinton did not. Instead, Mr. Strider was docked several weeks of pay and ordered to undergo counseling, and the young woman was moved to a new job. Mr. Strider, who was Mrs. Clinton’s faith adviser, a co-founder of the American Values Network, and sent the candidate scripture readings every morning for months during the campaign, was hired five years later to lead an independent group that supported Mrs. Clinton’s 2016 candidacy, Correct the Record, which was created by a close Clinton ally, David Brock. He was fired after several months for workplace issues, including allegations that he harassed a young female aide, according to three people close to Correct the Record’s management. Mr. Strider did not respond to multiple requests for comment.[/quote] Looks like Hillary has no room to call for more accountability regarding sexual harassment.

    Holy shit. My mom came into my room to bring me a plate of chicken nuggets and I literally screamed at her and hit the plate of chicken nuggets out of her hand. She started yelling and swearing at me and I slammed the door on her. I'm so distressed right now I don't know what to do. I didn't mean to do that to my mom but I'm literally in shock from the news tonight. I feel like I'm going to explode. Why the -blam!-ing -blam!- did Hillary shield a sexual predator? This can't be happening. I'm having a -blam!-ing breakdown. I don't want to believe the world is so corrupt. I want a future to believe in. I wanted a proper feminist to be president and fix this sexist country. I cannot -blam!-ing deal with this right now. It wasn't supposed to be like this, I thought she was #withher???? This is so -blam!-ed.
