What could I possibly have to say about Matt Lauer? I'm not sure if I ever saw him on TV-- and certainly not on the gossipy morning show he did on NBC. He is accused of sexually assaulting a female staffer in 2014 at the Sochi Winter Games. She complained to H.R. on Monday and he was fired on Tuesday night and by this morning it pushed Señor Trumpanzee's antics out of the top news story slots everywhere-- including on Lauer's own show. NBC News chairman Andy Lack made the decision himself. Lack: "While it is the first complaint about his behavior in the over twenty years he’s been at NBC News, we were also presented with reason to believe this may not have been an isolated incident." Trumpanzee, of course tried to get in on the action:So who's this morning's other Matt? Matt Dababneh is one of the most conservative, Republican-lite, fake Dems in the California Assembly. We've been writing about what an asshole he is for years. But we were writing about him for his right-wing votes and his corruption. Who knew he was a pervert to boot! The story I got from 4 other state legislators yesterday and today is that he followed a woman into a bathroom, locked the door and pulled out his dick and masturbated in front of her. Supposedly the L.A. Times is sitting on the story and several of the legislators suggested that if I write about it, the L.A. Times will be forced to and he'll resign-- another Climate Change denier flushed away.Since 2014 he's been representing the 45th Assembly district, much of the western San Fernando Valley, so not far from where I live. It's a liberal area that doesn't need a conservative representing it. And this isn't the first report of Dababneh's inappropriate behavior with the ladies.So would I have broken this story if he was a progressive? Nope. And that's the problem... this whole thing becoming a political weapon. I think child molester Roy Moore should withdraw from the race. I think serial sexual predator Donald J. Trumpanzee should resign. But liberal Democrat John Conyers? Sure... after Trump does. This is going to get like the Terror that destroyed the French Revolution's lofty goals. And the political weaponization of this is going to become a real problem for our society now. Just watch.I still don't understand why no one has revisited the sexual molestation charges against Mitch McConnell for fondling a private's privates. Let's get on that. Who will be next, Garrison Keillor, formerly of Prairie Home Companion? As I've said before, men are pigs.
