Keith Ellison’s accuser releases medical document showing she feared ‘retribution’ if she came forward
We have been told over and over by Democrats that when a woman makes an accusation against a man she should automatically be believed no matter how old the accusations might be. The latest example of this comes to us via the Brett Kavanaugh hearing–just the accusation alone disqualifies him from being considered for the Supreme Court according to the Democrats.
I am of course not saying the woman should not be believed or that the accusation should be taken lightly or ignored but I am wondering why the Democrats are so selective in their outrage and their condemnation. If a woman should automatically be believed when an accusation is nearly 40 years old (and let’s not forget the Roy Moore decades old accusations which derailed his campaign) why then are these same Democrats giving Keith Ellison a pass for accusations which are just a couple of years old?
In case you have not heard, Keith Ellison is co-chair of the Democratic National Committee and he had a penchant for beating his girlfriend over the years–allegedly–and yesterday we learned that she was threatened by the Democratic party to keep quiet.
Now Keith Ellison’s accuser is releasing a medical record from last year where she admits she feared retribution if she came forward with the accusations. Here is more:
A 2017 medical document released Wednesday by Karen Monahan said she feared “retribution” if she revealed her allegations of abuse against her former boyfriend, Democratic Rep. Keith Ellison.
Ms. Monahan posted the Minnesota clinic’s write-up from her visit to corroborate her accusations of physical and emotional abuse made public in August, which Mr. Ellison has denied.
“When I post this, it gets deleted every time,” she tweeted.
The document from the Park Nicollet clinic dated Nov. 28, 2017, said she was being treated for anemia and that she attributed it to the stress from her relationship with Mr. Ellison, which he has said ended in 2016.
“She states that she was in a very stressful environment for years, emotional and physical abuse by a partner with whom she is now separated,” said the clinic’s progress notes. “She did not have any physical injuries that required a physical examination in the past.”
The medical report continued, “She identifies the individual she was involved with as congressmen [sic] Ellison, and she is worried about retribution if she identifies him publicly.”
The Democratic National Committee is allegedly investigating these accusations but to date there has been no public condemnation or righteous indignation from the Democrats, there have been no cries of outrage calling for Keith Ellison’s resignation, and they are standing behind their man. The hypocrisy of all of this is astounding but not surprising, proving once and for all their outrage is selective depending on a political agenda and has nothing to do with protecting women.

Ol’ Keith gets the Ted Kennedy exemption which excuses any “anti-woman” behavior by any democrat, or garden variety leftist, up to and including manslaughter….possibly more. Nothing to see here, next.

That would be the Kennedy/Clinton exemption. 😉

That is a great question! I know the Dems see the hypocrisy and just ignore it. They have to see it, don’t they?
