‘I’m a Victim of Sexual Assault’: Kellyanne Conway Shares Her Story to Americans to Blame Perpetrators, Not All Men

Kellyanne Conway made a painful revelation about her history of sexual assault during an interview with Jake Tapper on CNN’s State of the Union.

Conway was on to discuss the fallout from the hearing for Judge Brett Kavanaugh and the pending FBI investigation. While discussing uncorroborated allegations about the judge, Conway revealed that she is a victim of sexual assault.

Watch:

“I feel very empathetic, frankly, for victims of sexual assault and sexual harassment and rape. That… I’m a victim of sexual assault. I don’t expect Judge Kavanaugh or Jake Tapper or Jeff Flake or anybody to feel responsible for that. You have to be responsible for your own conduct. […]

If not one Senate Judiciary member changes his or her vote because of what they learn from the FBI investigation, that tells you all you need to know about what the president and Judge Kavanaugh have said is a sham. Let’s just be honest about what this is about. It’s all about partisan politics. You know, I want those women who were sexually assaulted the other day who were confronting Jeff Flake. God bless them, but go blame the perpetrator. That’s who’s responsible for sexual assault. The people who commit them.”

Tapper, who was clearly caught off guard by her comments, offered up an apology to Conway, saying, “This is the first time I’ve heard you talk about something personal like that and I’m really sorry.”

“I’ve just had it with it all being the same,” said Conway.

Tapper pointed to the fact that Conway works for President Trump, who has claimed that women have lied about him in the past, but Conway didn’t take the bait.

“Don’t conflate that with this. Certainly, don’t conflate it with what happened to me,” said Conway, adding, “It’d be a huge mistake, Jake. Let’s not always bring Trump into everything that happens in this universe.”

Conway asserted that “we do treat people differently who are either victims or perpetrators of this based on their politics now and based on their gender and it’s a huge mistake. America, it’s a huge mistake.”

Clearly, it was not easy for Conway to discuss her past, reminding Americans, once again, that the issue of sexual assault is not as cut and dry as it may appear on the surface.

Rosie O’Donnell Calls for Trump Assassination… REGRETS IT IMMEDIATELY!

Rosie O’Donnell and Donald Trump have been engaged in a bitter feud for over a decade. Rosie’s hatred for Trump has only escalated since he became president, but this week, she took things way too far when she called for him to be assassinated. It didn’t take long for Rosie to learn that she’d made a huge mistake… Mad World News reported that Rosie took to Twitter on Saturday to endorse a ridiculous new game called Push Trump Off A Cliff Again. The despicable game allows players to kill Trump by pushing him off a cliff. Push Trump Off A Cliff Again https://t.co/YguB3aG8EP — ROSIE (@Rosie) July 15, 2017 The virtual game instructs players to “Take out your frustrations with [the] President by pushing him off a virtual cliff, or into a virtual volcano.” An image of Trump screams things like “Bye!” and “I’m really rich!” as he tumbles to his death. Twitter users immediately fired back at Rosie and let her know that simulating the assassination of the president is never okay. Bett

WALSH: Yes, Ilhan Omar’s Alleged Adultery Matters. Here’s Why.

According to court documents, Rep. Ilhan Omar allegedly had an affair with a married DC consultant. The wife of Omar’s alleged lover made the claims in divorce filings, insisting that her marriage was ultimately destroyed by the tryst between the congresswoman and her husband. Previous reports claimed that Omar “dumped” her own husband earlier in the summer. Conventional modern wisdom would tell us that the only newsworthy and relevant aspect of this salacious story is the possible abuse of campaign funds, as reported by the Washington Examiner: Omar’s alleged paramour, Tim Mynett, has been a fundraising consultant for Omar’s 2018 and 2020 campaigns… …Of the $145,406 reported earnings by the E Street Group during the 2018 campaign cycle, $62,674 came from Omar’s campaign. Not counting payroll taxes and transfers to Minnesota’s Democratic Party, E Street Group was Omar’s second-largest vendor, according to FEC data. From Labor Day through the end of the year, E Street Group ate up mo

Newly Declassified FBI Materials Show Bureau Treated Clinton, Trump Campaigns Differently On Foreign Interference

FBI documents and communications that were recently declassified show the bureau treated foreign interference on Hillary Clinton’s campaign differently than it did with President Donald Trump’s campaign. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-SC) released the documents on Sunday with a lengthy statement about the contents: There was a clear double standard by the Department of Justice and FBI when it came to the Trump and Clinton campaigns in 2016. These newly released documents indicate that a foreign government was trying to influence the Clinton campaign through a campaign associate and the FBI was seeking a FISA warrant. However, the Bureau, as it is supposed to do, required that Hillary Clinton be defensively briefed about the matter so she could engage in corrective action. When it came to the Trump campaign, there were four counterintelligence investigations opened against Trump campaign associates. Not one time was President Trump defensively briefed about th
