I received the following in a DM, so I'm withholding the name:

"I was abused by my therapist three years ago. Police said there was not enough evidence to convict but believed me. I had emails where he was trying to get me to sleep with other men & take pics. (Continued) 34/
I found another victim with the same story. He continues to practice.

I'M STUNNED. I started this thread last night after seeing some tweets from females who I follow or follow me. Within minutes I tweeted over 30. I stopped because people were literally tweeting them faster than I could keep up. How do you respond to that? I'M SORRY isn't enough😔

AS YOU WATCH THIS👇🏽video of a Border Patrol agent pouring out water that was left for migrants, know that the body of a 7 year-old girl is lying on a table right now. SHE NEEDED WHAT HE POURED OUT. Her death is a direct result of the hateful policies of Donald Trump & the @GOP.
For folks informing me that the video is from 2013: Look at #FactCheck & #Verify in my profile. I purposely included the time stamp but used the video because it was used in a story from THIS YEAR because the practice continues. Not only that; the BP arrests those who leave water
For those saying; If it continues, why not use newer video? THINK!🤔The BP "officially" stopped the policy after the outrage when the video originally surfaced, but unofficially, it continues. Do you honestly think they'll allow themselves to be filmed now? There is no NEW video.

🔥MAKE NO MISTAKE🔥by closing the border at the largest US-Mexico checkpoint between San Diego & Tijuana, Donald Trump is intentionally creating a situation where conflict & violence is MORE LIKELY to occur... which he will then USE as a political tool. #CaravanCrisis 🗽🇺🇸
💥UPDATE💥By closing the border at the largest US-Mexico checkpoint, Trump is intentionally creating a situation where conflict & violence is MORE LIKELY to occur, which he will then USE as a political tool... and it's starting now. #CaravanCrisis 🗽🇺🇸
JUST RELEASED PHOTO... shows that many of the scary #Caravan invaders are men disguised as women and barefooted small children, some in diapers. #Tijuana

#MeToo double-standard: Ellison accuser 'bullied' by same liberals celebrating Christine Blasey Ford washingtontimes.com/news/2018/dec/… via @washtimes
She accused a national political figure of domestic abuse, but nobody has asked @KarenMonahan01 to present an award, or celebrated her as a #MeToo icon, or put her on the short list for Person of the Year.
Instead, Ms. Monahan has watched her fellow progressives—some of whom were once her colleagues—turn on her after she went public with abuse allegations against her ex-boyfriend, Dem Rep. @KeithEllison, Minnesota’s newly elected attorney general-the state’s chief law officer.

#metoo story

My step nephew is 17 years old. Straight A student, big deal on the football team, and all around good kid. 2 weeks ago he was at a party and started making out with another 17 year old girl, both were drinking. Monday she went to the principal's office and (1/3)
and said he touched her privates and she didn't want him to. His mother was called in and told pedophilia would not be tolerated (they're both 17), he was immediately suspended and kicked off the football team before the police were even involved and before he was able to (2/3)
say a word. Per him, she was in his lap jerking him off, so he thought it was okay to touch her. She gave no indication that she wanted him to stop, on the contrary, she wanted to have sex and he turned her down. Their lawyer has recommended he plead guilty to 4th degree (3/4)

Grassley has ZERO understanding of what is REALLY happening today.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein stated...

"Today, while rejecting an FBI investigation, Republicans are refusing to hear testimony from any other witness, including Mark Judge ... what I find most inexcusable is this rush to judgement."
That is what women do, convince selves because the crime didn’t happen in full, that they are not worthy of reporting the incident.

Doesn't matter if a sexual assault happened 30 yrs ago, 10 yrs ago, 10 months ago, 10 weeks ago, 10 days ago, 10 mins ago
Christine Blasey Ford #MeToo survival story was inflicted by Kavanaugh, her credibility is being scrutinized
That's why survivors don't speak up
I believe her
It was so painful to her...
She was so ashamed of it, which many assault survivors feel when it isn't their fault that some men are entitled pigs...
... she didn't speak of her sexual assault for decades.
What that tells me as a survivor myself, she repressed that memory.
This wasn't easy for her to:

1. Speak up
2. Relive her horrifying experience
3. Bare her soul to the world to save our democracy & expose Kavanaugh for the pig that he is

Excellent roadmap to who *didn't* sign this letter.
I went to a co-ed private school in DC around the same time, it would be hard to find 65 of your *own* classmates to sign on to something like this, much less if the girls were at a DIFFERENT SCHOOL. And "he didn't attack me" is no evidence that he didn't attack someone else.
One of the letter signers is Brit Hume's daughter. So did Fox News know this was coming too?
