The Democrats have two
very different profiles. One is their public face of absolute moral purity.
They're just better people than Republicans.
That's what you're
buying when you walk into the Democratic store: pure virtue. They've got
nothing else on the shelves. No beef jerky, no wiper fluid, no Gatorade.
The other profile is
reality: In the backroom, where the employees eat lunch, the Democrats and
their fat-cat donors are committing unspeakably sleazy and immoral acts.
Everyone on the left
knows this. That's why, the moment Harvey Weinstein was exposed as a sexual
predator, his reflexive response was not to apologize. Accused of the kind of
rapes you'd usually need a gang to commit, he put up a virtue shield by
attacking the National Rifle Association.
As we recently
discovered, first with Weinstein and then with the Hillary campaign paying for
the Russian dossier, the left has an all-new trick that exponentially
multiplies the Democrats' sleaze factor.
It used to be that
Democrats like Bill Clinton would deploy FOBs -- Friends of Bill -- like James
Carville and Sidney Blumenthal to smear his victims. Now, they run their
Watergate-style "ratf---ing" through law firms.
Ronan Farrow writes in
this week's New Yorker that Weinstein deployed a raft of spies to befriend and
deceive his accusers in order to collect information that could be used against
them.
A spy with the Israeli
private investigations firm Black Cube used a fake name and fake foundation to
meet actress Rose McGowan. Then, pretending to be a deeply sympathetic women's
rights advocate, the agent secretly tape-recorded the actress, hoping to get
incriminating evidence against her.
At a minimum, this is
unspeakably repellent and possibly illegal.
And who hired the
spies? Not Weinstein! The law firm of David Boies, prominent Democratic
attorney.
Using a law firm as a
cut-out between the client -- an alleged sexual predator -- and the people
stealthily recording his accusers has one very useful purpose: It places the
spy agency's work behind the protection of attorney-client privilege.
Boies pretends to be
steeped in the ethics of his profession, flying to California to argue against
the "hate" of Proposition 8 and rushing to Florida after the 2000
election to defend Al Gore's rightful claim to the presidency.
But now we find out
he's been harassing and intimidating a rape victim on behalf of his client (the
rapist) with private eyes who lie about their identity and motives, wasting
hours of the victim's time with false promises of support for her cause -- a
cause she has taken up precisely because of her alleged rape by the lawyer's
client.
Whether or not this
violates any bar association ethical canons, it's certainly despicable.
Two weeks ago, we found
out that the law firm cut-out maneuver was the exact same technique used by
Hillary's campaign to obtain damaging information on Donald Trump from the
Kremlin -- the infamous Russian dossier. The Clinton campaign and the
Democratic National Committee shelled out $12 million seeking incriminating
information on Trump from Russian government officials.
Just like Weinstein,
the Democrats funneled money for a nefarious purpose through a law firm. To
wit: The Democrats paid a law firm (Perkins Coie), which paid a private
investigations firm (Fusion GPS), which in turn paid a spy (Christopher
Steele), and Steele paid Russian government officials for dirt on Trump.
When the media found
out that Donald Trump Jr. had taken a meeting with a friend of a friend,
because she claimed to have incriminating information from Russia on Hillary,
the word "treason" filled the airwaves. Hillary's vice presidential
nominee, Sen. Tim Kaine (D- Va.), called Don Jr.'s pointless meeting
"potentially treason."
MSNBC's favorite former
Bush official, lunatic Richard Painter, said anyone who "wanted to help
the Russians (disrupt our election process) engaged in treasonous
conduct." Al Sharpton said that the willingness to accept
"information to discredit your potential opponent in an American election
from Russia -- from what is supposed to be an enemy state" -- raised the
prospect of treason.
If that's
"treason," then what is it when the Democrats reach out to the
Russians and pass them money for dirt on Hillary's opponent in a presidential
election? Wasn't that dossier an attempt to discredit her opponent and disrupt
the election?
Remember: Don Jr.
didn't seek a meeting with any Russians to get compromising information on
Hillary, nor did he receive any. The Russian woman was using the pretense of
having dirt on Hillary as a ruse to get a meeting, so that she could lobby Don
Jr. on the Magnitsky Act.
Unlike Don Jr., the
Democrats didn't wait to be asked! They paid $12 million, funneled through a
law firm, seeking information on Trump from Russian government officials.
But we're not allowed
to mention it because the Clinton campaign and DNC used Weinstein's money
laundering technique.
The attorney-client
privilege is intended to ensure that people are completely truthful with their
attorneys. It is not supposed to be a shelter for any sordid, and possibly
illegal, behavior by liberals.
