“A woman who received a payout from WWE boss Vince McMahon has accused McMahon, the company and a former executive of sex trafficking in a new lawsuit that raises questions about the breadth of an internal company probe conducted by a law firm last year.

Janel Grant, a former employee at WWE’s headquarters, said in a lawsuit filed Thursday that she was abused and sexually exploited by McMahon while he was chief executive. She alleged that McMahon lured her with promises of career advancement, and then he allegedly exploited her and trafficked her to other men inside the company.

Grant signed a nondisclosure agreement in 2022 in which McMahon agreed to pay $3 million for her to not discuss their relationship or to disparage him.”

In today’s other sexual harassment lawsuit news, McMahon has been dumped by the WWE.

Just shocking that this is the guy that Trump plucked out of White House to then serve him privately. Oh what could the reason have been.

“Nauta, both sources said, was accused of violating this prohibition in multiple overlapping and emotionally abusive romantic relationships while he was married and assigned to the White House. The “revenge porn” included supposedly compromising images of women that Nauta had allegedly retained and threatened to make public, according to the sources.
All three women told Navy officials about the alleged misconduct, the sources explained, which they said occurred while Nauta was Trump’s White House valet, fetching Diet Cokes for the parched president.”

That’s so typical of the GOP.

GOP Gov. Jim Justice doesn't like to pay his bills (who does that remind you of?).

"For years, West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice has been dogged by allegations that his family businesses haven’t paid their debts, including fines for environmental violations at their coal plants. One bank is even seeking to garnish his salary as governor to cover an unpaid personal guarantee of a business loan, court documents show."

I actually first spotted the story on the front page of the WSJ, but it's behind a paywall so I can't copy from it. But here are a few sentences I typed up:
*Justice, his family and his companies have piled up hundreds of millions of dollars in liabilities to banks, coal companies and federal and stage regulators, some of which the Justices are now disputing."
*The Greenbrier hotel/resort, which the family owns, "has been short on toiletries periodically because it hasn't paid its vendors on time."

The Republican running to replace George Santos is… wait for it… lying about her past accomplishments.

“Ms. Pilip has also faced questions about how she has described her military service.

On official biographies on Instagram and X, she calls herself a “former IDF paratrooper,” invoking one of the Israeli military’s most vaunted combat roles. But, as Ms. Pilip herself has acknowledged, she was an armorer maintaining weapons in the paratrooper’s brigade, not a paratrooper or trained parachutist. She did not face combat.

Ms. Pilip’s campaign declined to make her available for an interview. Michael Deery, a Nassau County Republican official, dismissed the distinction as “form over substance,” and argued that the term “paratrooper” was widely used in Israel.

But former Israeli military leaders and scholars who study women in the armed forces said that Ms. Pilip’s use was neither common nor accurate. The Hebrew word for paratrooper, they noted, does not have a feminine form.
“As a gunsmith, she was not a paratrooper,” said Nachman Shai, a former Israeli military spokesman and Labor Party minister.”

Jason Howland, founder of a group called the "American Patriot Council" and former Republican candidate for the Michigan state legislature, charged with obstruction among other crimes for breaching the Capitol on January 6. Howland was in the Capitol with Ryan Kelley, who ran for Governor of Michigan and is currently serving a 60-day sentence in federal prison.

Replacement Theory isn’t “corruption,” per se but it is racist and repellent.

Missed that Ziegler is the second Florida GOP chair in a row to face sexual misconduct allegations. The previous chair seems to have a Matt Schlapp-type issue.

“The Republican Party of Florida investigated its chair, Joe Gruters, in connection with a sexual harassment allegation involving a legislative staffer amid complaints from top party officials that the accusation was covered up.

Four party officials and an additional source who works with the Republican Party of Florida told POLITICO Tuesday morning that the allegations stem from an evening at a Tallahassee bar during the 2021 legislative session. Sources say a male aide offered to drive Gruters home from the bar and at some point Gruters allegedly sexually harassed the aide. A formal complaint was filed with the state party shortly after the incident.”

Now police body camera footage of the brand new Florida GOP chair Evan Power, who replaced accused rapist Christian Ziegler, has surfaced from his arrest for DUI in 2018.



In the land of the sexual assaulters, the drunk driver is king.

After striking out with two sexual assaulters and one drunk driver, the Florida GOP is trying again with another candidate for state party chair. This one, Peter Feaman, spouts Q-level anti-vaccine BS and is lying about how the “failing New York Times” loved his book.
