Thank you. The thing is, I do not need this! I have a very full, rewarding (professionally and personally), kid-filled life. But this needs doing and no one else had stepped up and NO WAY was I going to leave an empty spot on the ballot. I thought my challenges would be with the repub machine I’m running against (and…

The worst part about working in politics and government as a woman is the explaining I have to do.

I keep saying to my husband, our memories are long and they will be detailed! Friends of mine told me to talk into a voice memo app on my phone while I’m out and about because I do not have the time to be journaling all this, but I need to keep good records. I think that is great idea. The stuff I’m seeing and…

I beg of you, keep detailed notes and journals (with names) and out all the bastards when you the opportunity is right. (Says someone who took the high road and sued for a #metoo related situation, when I should’ve shouted about it to any/everyone in a 50 mile radius)

Your bravery can’t be overstated. I would’ve valued a nice, quiet life over the hell you must be experiencing. Thank god we have strong people like you enduring it for us

The harassment I am experiencing on the campaign trail is astounding to me.

What’s a “full on abstinence agenda”? Who would benefit from it?

I gave up drinking to help reach my fitness goals, but pushing a full on abstinence agenda disguised as medical fact really needs to stop. Lets be honest, alcohol is poison - we know that its why it makes us feel weird and then shitty. However people literally since the dawn of civilization have drunk alcohol -…

It’s kind of interesting how an allegation against a woman leads to a conversation about “cycles of violence.” Do you imagine you’d have started the same conversation had the alleged perpetrator here been a man?

It's important to note that cycles of abuse ARE NOT self-perpetuating though that idea is popular in the media. Abused individuals are not more likely to become abusers.

I’m trying to understand your point, but I’m sorry, I just don’t. How does the fact that Argento sexually assaulted this man negate the fact that Weinstein sexually assaulted her? Both can be true. And, frankly, I’m struggling to see how you think she used #metoo for her own professional gain when the onslaught of…

By your logic we shouldnt trust this Jimmy Bennett as anything more than extortion right? Except in both cases the claims were heavily vetted by the media you disparage and Weinstein is actually facing criminal charges because she wasnt the only one to speak up.

People are asking what this means for #MeToo. It means it’s doing its job.

This doesn’t surprise me. Cycles of abuse are self-perpetuating. I’m surprised more people aren’t pointing out how distressingly similar the details of this assault are to her allegation against Weinstein: the grooming and isolating of the victim, providing alcohol before attacking etc. It’s infuriating to think…

I find it fascinating how the power of some juicy gossip continues to trump facts. Who cares if an investgation into Pitt came up with nothing? Who cares that Maddox isn’t part of the custody agreement because he’s of an age that the court doesn’t require him to be included? People would rather just keep on with the sa…

People haven’t forgotten about it.  We just remember that the authorities investigated and found no reason to press charges.  So we assume that Jolie is making is sound worse than it is.  And, it’s not as if Jolie has a perfect past either. Wanting to protect the kids from an ugly PR battle is not the same thing as…

Well, immediately they broke up she surrounded herself with one of the best crisis teams out there. Starting with Laura Wasser whose real genius is her ability to work the media to force a fast settlement. She is famously tight with Harvey Levin, which is how TMZ used to have the big exclusives told from Angelinas…

Limited visitation?

That kind of speaks to her arrogance though. Not only is she slinging mud on her ex and making the divorce public, she thinks she can do it without professionals. I guess she thought the anorexic Mother Theresa/child collector act was enough to convince everyone of her sainthood and that she was above needing…
