A 🧵looking at how the power dynamics in the Johnny Depp Amber Heard relationship do represent a #MeToo situation. TW: Sexual Harassment/Grooming

#IStandWithAmberHeard
Depp's team argued that Amber's relationship with Depp was not a #MeToo situation.
Remember the #MeToo movement is about women gaining their voices back from men in positions of power over them. The #MeToo movement caught fire in 2017 when film producer #HarveyWeinstein was exposed as a serial predator of actresses.

#ENFOTOS | El movimiento femenino #MeToo nació por la valentía de las mujeres que se atrevieron a denunciar el acoso que sufren en sus sitios de trabajo y en la cotidianidad

Cientos de personajes públicos se han unido a esta causa y a través de diferentes expresiones Image
El primer gran caso que denunciaron fue contra el productor de cine #HarveyWeinstein, donde al menos 80 mujeres de la industria cinematográfica lo acusaron de acoso sexual, agresión sexual o violación

El 24 de febrero de 2020 un jurado determinó su culpabilidad en varios cargos Image
Tras esta denuncia aparecieron cientos más, en las que incluso mujeres que trabajan en cargos públicos denunciaron casos de abuso sexual

También han surgido iniciativas de apoyo a través de redes sociales y eventos públicos

Today 75 inmates tested positive for #coronavirus in NYC jails including #RikersIsland nearly double the amount yesterday. 39 Correction staff have the virus. @LegalAidNYC compared the rate of infection to city and state numbers.
By comparison, the rate of infections in NY state prisons is moving at a slower pace. Three inmates including #HarveyWeinstein have #coronavirus. But the number of correction officers is almost double from yesterday with 33 who tested positive.
At this rate, the number of inmates who will contract #coronavirus on #RikersIsland could reach triple digits as soon as tomorrow. Still, efforts to release certain inmates — several hundred — are slow, too slow to minimize the spread of the virus.

As #HarveyWeinstein is sentenced to 23 years in jail, here are a few readings we recommend on his case

1. Our interview with Rebecca Corbett, the editor who oversaw @jodikantor & @mega2e investigation: “#MeToo is not the same thing as journalism”

reutersinstitute.politics.ox.ac.uk/risj-review/re…
2. The transcript of Corbett's lecture here at @risj_oxford.

"The reporting brought to light hidden harm. It provided a path to accountability. And it made it safer for women to speak out, giving the phrase “She Said” a new meaning: a chance to be heard"
reutersinstitute.politics.ox.ac.uk/risj-review/ha…
3. The original @nytimes article that broke the story on October 5, 2017

'Harvey Weinstein Paid Off Sexual Harassment Accusers for Decades'. By @jodikantor and @mega2e

Like so many others, we are very glad to see the outcome of the #HarveyWeinstein trial this past week. He has done immeasurable harm with his sexual exploitation, abuse and rape of so many women, using his position of power for his own self-gratification. #HarveyWeinsteinGuilty
While most are disgusted with the extent of #HarveyWeinstein’s offending, the same can’t be said for the sick minds at #Pornhub His crimes are treated as masturbation fodder in re-enactments for men’s entertainment. His victims are named (we cut from pic) #ShutDownPornHub Image
Meanwhile, popular culture treats #Pornhub as a big joke. Men’s demand for the bodies of women and underage girls, objectified, used, abused, humiliated, bruised, restrained, abducted, choked, raped, tortured, trafficked, subject to misogynistic & racial abuse treated as a joke. Image

#HarveyWeinstein has hired a "prison consultant" to prepare him for his incarceration. It must be NICE to have months or years to "prepare yourself" for prison, and even a "coach" to help you get ready.

Weird, but my experience was entirely different... (1/9)
My arrest was a complete surprise to me and everyone in my family & inner circle. The charges against me changed several times in as many weeks. I was shuffled back and forth between 6 different jails in the dead of night. Even my lawyer couldn't find me... (2/9)
The police wouldn't release my car keys to my family. It cost them $250 just to have a duplicate key fob made. Without a power of attorney, there were certain bank accounts and business assets that my family could not access. They had no idea where I was for weeks. (3/9)

#BernieSanders is now the front-runner to be the US #Democratic challenger to #Trump. He is popular because, like #JeremyCorbyn, he is serious about social democratic reforms #ForTheMany at the expense of the billionaire class... /1

Like the campaign against #Corbyn they are using every smear & dirty trick available to them. However #Sanders has shown he has learned from Corbyn's mistakes in capitulating to his dishonest critics:

THREAD: Closing arguments have ended and deliberation begins on Tueday.

Here are some highlight's from the prosecution's closing arguments today...
“The defendant was the master of his universe and the witnesses were merely ants that he could step on…They don’t get to complain when they’re stepped on, spit on, demoralized and then, yes, raped and abused by the defendant.” — lead prosecutor Joan Illuzzi
When @RonanFarrow investigated #HarveyWeinstein reached out re Annabella Sciorra, Harvey emailed his team: “This was consensual or deny it.”

Illuzzi read the email to the jury aloud & then said, “Consensual is the opposite of denying it -- I submit to you: that’s a confession!”

'The cosmos of sexual pleasure has been restricted to a few boring & chauvinistic narratives for the pleasure of the male gaze’

Says the designer who dresses women in garments shaped like vulvas or brandished with outlines of penis and testicles. #NYFW collectiveshout.org/pornhub_runway… Image
The “narratives” Nan Li of #Namilia describes as “boring” involve sexual abuse, abduction and rape of women and girls, footage of trafficking victims, victims of voyeurs and “revenge porn.”
So he promotes #Pornhub at #NYFW @nyfw

We won’t end abuse by simply demonising perpetrators.
We won’t help future victims by only focusing on the abuser.

We need to look at the climate in which abuse thrives.

We need to look at how society enables, minimises & looks the other way.
We also need to look at bystanders.
I’ve been thinking about this a lot since hearing of the death of Kobe Bryant who was an exceptional basketball player.
He was also a man accused of rape.

Re-reading what was reported at the time, two things stand out that are difficult to ignore, especially since #MeToo.
Bryant claimed that strangulation during sex was his ‘thing’. He claimed there was consent.

More and more predatory men are using the ‘ Rough sex gone wrong’ defence and we can’t ignore how porn culture has normalised strangulation.

THREAD: @NYMag's latest on the #WeinsteinTrial says the defense is attempting to discredit the survivors with 50+ pages of rape myths and logical fallacies - the same used to deny & justify male sexual aggression against women for decades.

Some facts:
thecut.com/2020/01/the-po…
As described by @Irin, the defense in the #HarveyWeinstein powerpoint boils down to two things:

1. "*Her behavior* afterward shows she was fine."

2. "My *otherwise* good behavior shows I couldn't have done it."
There is not one response to rape, assault, or trauma, or one classic victim. To suggest that there is or should be perpetuates rape myths that blame women & minimizing the real harm caused by rape.

This month Obamas officially purchased the Edgartown Estate, an $11.75 million waterfront mansion in Martha’s Vineyard.

In 2017 the Obamas purchased an $8.1 million home in DC’s Kalorama neighborhood & own a 6,243 sf home in Chicago’s South Side Kenwood neighborhood.
The listing details the property’s “long and winding driveway, sprawling lawn and incredible water views” and notes that the main residence is “finished with the finest details,” including...
...“multiple seating and entertaining spaces, a modern Chef’s kitchen, and a formal circular dining room surrounded by a wall of windows overlooking the grounds.” It is also equipped with a jacuzzi located off the second-floor balcony...

Back in October, @mintpressnews reported several #PrinceAndrew articles were #SCRUBBED from the internet. Here is one, with a thread about #GhislaineMaxwell's 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠-𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝, #ElizabethSaltzman.

mintpressnews.com/wp-content/upl…
Being a 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠-𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝, Maxwell knew many ways to contact Saltzman.
Maxwell moved to the US in 1991 after her father's death. The earliest reference I could find of Maxwell with Saltzman is from the Daily Sun, Nov 29 1992. Saltzman may have been Maxwell's foot in the door of the US fashion scene.

Ok folks, #HarveyWeinstein shows up to court
with a walker for "back pain" which is:
-several notches too high
-used improperly
-wheels on backwards
#Hollywood fakery exposed

Gets bail raised to $5Million for 57 ankle monitoring violations!
#LockHimUp!!
Wheels are supposed to face outwards for stability, but #HarveyWeinstein's lawyers were so focused on gaining sympathy that they missed this little detail..Oh and an improperly measured walker actually increases back pain🙄
Maybe he should have physical therapist on board?🙋
And he obviously doesnt, which reveals another level of #fakery!

THREAD:

1) I'm not an investigative reporter, but I started writing about this two years ago, and connecting the dots. (Look up my column from November 2017 on Townhall: "Slimy similarities between DNC and Weinstein are no accident." )

townhall.com/columnists//la…
2) @WSJ reporter @JohnCarreyrou's experience was identical: he & his sources were subjected to conduct just as corrupt and even more dangerous by the same lawyer (David Boies) behind the efforts to kill the Weinstein story. Boies hired "private security agencies"...
3)... to stalk, dig up dirt on & threaten Theranos employees who knew about the billion-$$$ fraud - to prevent them from revealing to legitimate journalists and law enforcement criminal behavior that threatened the lives of tens of thousands of people.

Carreyrou confirmed it...

My friend and colleague Margot Cleveland continues to unearth unholy alliances between the press, Democrats & "Deep State" operatives in the Obama administration & Hillary Clinton campaign, using illegal means to destroy a duly-elected president, @realDonaldTrump.
My column this week will add to that, @RonanFarrow"s exposé of corruption at @NBCNews trying to bury the #HarveyWeinstein story, PLUS @JohnCarreyrou's accounts of Democrat lawyer #DavidBoies trying to kill the #Theranos story (@JoeBiden plays a role in that one)
PLUS the press' AND California's Democrat-controlled government's willingness to ignore the deaths of TWO black men at the home of major Democratic fundraiser/bundler Ed Buck.

Hey all, I know I’m late to the conversation here. I don’t usually use twitter but it seems like that’s where a lot of this conversation is happening. Last night I confronted Harvey Weinstein in a bar along with a number of other artists. Heres the thread (1/?) #HarveyWeinstein
A lot of this has already been said by @ambercrollo in her amazing thread and I recommend everyone read it. Last night an event purporting to provide a platform for emerging artists invited a serial rapist to attend a private show. (2/?)
Here’s my statements from Facebook that give a chronology of the events from where I was. The comic I spoke about was @bellykachman. (3/?)
