accusations of sexual misconduct needs to call out MF45 first about the 23 women who have accused him of sexual misconduct.
It pisses me off to no end to see Democratic politicians jump to the microphone to tell other Democrats to resign. At least do a proper inquiry before shouting your mouth off. I think sometimes these people call out others just to let everyone know they are not like the rethuglicans; who stand by and say NOTHING when another Rethug is accused.
Edit to add proof that Rethugs create fake accusations. From the Wikipedia page of Jacob Wohl, (conservative ick person)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacob_Wohl#Attempt_to_frame_Robert_Mueller
In 2018, Wohl created and registered the company Surefire Intelligence, LLC. Reporters who investigated Surefire Intelligence's website and company in October 2018 in relation to an alleged plot to frame Robert Mueller for sexual assault, elaborated on below, found that the company had been created by Wohl just a few weeks earlier and that its official phone number redirected to a voicemail message with another phone number owned by Wohl's mother.[7]
On October 22, Vermont Law School professor Jennifer Taub received an email from Surefire Intelligence asking her to report on "past encounters with Robert Mueller" and offering her money to discuss Mueller by phone. Taub stated she had never met Mueller and referred the matter to Muellers office, which then referred the matter to the FBI.[28]
On October 30, Wohl tweeted: "Several media sources tell me that a scandalous story about Mueller is breaking tomorrow. Should be interesting. Stay tuned!"[29][30]
Wohl and Burkman convened a press conference outside Washington on November 1, ostensibly to present a woman who they said signed an affidavit, which Gateway Pundit had published, accusing Mueller of raping her in a New York hotel room in 2010 on a date he was contemporaneously reported by The Washington Post to be serving jury duty in Washington.[33]
