Leslie stahl. Shes a cohost of 60 minutes. Also tonight we have new photos that have been uncovered. They show Franken Groping Huffington during a 2000 photo shoot. Here you can see franken grabbing her breath. The second photo shows are behind and shes rushing to her defense saying they were just having fun in that people shouldnt be offended by the photos. The rest of the Mainstream Media wont tell you this, but this kind of gross behavior is part of a pattern when it comes to al franken. Take a look at this photo from 2000. Franken is seen right there inappropriately touching joy behar while they are on the red carpet together. Just like huffington, she shares his politics and is downplaying the photo and defended his actions. Look, ive known arianna for a long time. She and joy behar, if they dont think anything is wrong with that, that is their choice. But from the outside, it looks kind of creepy. Its probably something most
because he believed in the future president s message and because he was an ambitious guy and wanted to work in the white house. Next up, and bc. Thats the network that helped protect the clintons for decades. In January Of 99 nbc News Reporter lisa myers taped the First Exclusive interview with Juanita Broderick. I had the second. Remember she accused bill clinton of raping in 1978 and as the Washington Post reported at the time, instead of airing the interview, and bc news president and a lack, he still on the job, and other top executives sat on that interview for over a month, and at the time, nbc claimed they couldnt corroborate her accusations. It didnt air until february. While all of this was going on, at the time our colleague brit hume here on the Fox News Channel and his panelists, they actually were wearing free lisa myers buttons on air to encourage nbc to run the interview. In 2016, nbc correspondent as of
last year, Andrea Mitchell, she falsely tried to claim that her claims had been discredited following an interview that i did with candidate trump. Watch this. In one case its about exposure, in another case its about groping and fondling and touching against a womans well. And rape. And rape. Donald trump using that word unprompted during an interview last night with fox news is sean hannity. Bringing up a discredited and long denied accusations against former president bill clinton dating back to 1978 when he was Arkansas Attorney general. Sean nbc was so offended by that they later edited the online version of that clip to remove Andrea Mitchell using the word discredited. The New York Times also jumped into attack clintons accuser. Check out this headline from an oped. New york times, monica the marketer changes history script. That piece goes on to mock all the ways Monica Lewinsky in the
future would be able to capitalize from her affair with bill clinton. And finally, the worst enabler of them all. Hillary clinton herself, who did everything within her power to smear, slander, besmirch all of her husbands accusers. In 1992 when it all got started, Gennifer Flowers announced she had a 12 year affair with bill clinton. Hillary and bill raced to cbs and 60 minutes, why . To treasure character. Then later, hillary attempted to smear flowers when telling vanity fair if we had been in front of a jury i would say ms. Flowers, isnt it true that you were asked in june of 1990 and you said no . What you asked by the arkansas democrat and you said no . I mean i would crucify her. Wow. Bill of course ended up testifying under oath, yes jennifer told. Angela hello everybody him angela miles. You for joining us. Coming up on the show today, retail rally as millions of americans a step up their spending for the holiday season, traders watch for signs of a retail rampup. Pay to play. Stuck up Market Investors have enabled bills horrific behavior. Juanita broderick said that Hillary Clinton try to intimidate her after she was allegedly raped by bill clinton. We can forget how she claimed all of it. If they are all on a vast whitet wing find it and write about it and explain it is the vast white ring conspiracy that has been conspiring against my husband since the day he announced for president what they did here is shameful and reprehensible and it went on 30 years. 30 years they protected bill clinton, a sexual predator and they helped cover up and make excuses for all of his actions. We have a busy news night and if youre joining us now with reaction, Fox News National security strategist sebastian gorka, Conservative CommentatorMonica CrowleyTrial AttorneyRebecca Lowes woodman. Where do we start . There are so many people every day. With charlie rose at least he was fired today. At least he admitted he did these things. The victims are not further victimized by the press they keep insisting these women are lying. There cant be this many women line, a whole group of people throughout the course of america who are lying. Its not possible, it Doesnt Make Sense. For decades this kind of horrid behavior has been covered up, excused, unaccepted. With the Harvey Weinstein piece in the New York Times opened
the floodgates, you have the explosion of stories of people cute dumb i feel empowered to tell their stories. This kind of behavior, if you look at politics from for exam. Goes back to jfk, lyndon johnson. Sean ted kennedy, the lion of the senate who left the woman at the bottom of a body of water. He went home, told nobody. There was a house across the street and he was so beloved. In the modern era a lot of people are putting the current marker at bill clinton. Because he was excused by the woman who period. His life. But mrs. Clinton. Theres a special place for the women who have covered this kind of behavior. Sean listen to what i said about john conyers. I never liked the thing that he ever said. Politically we are on opposite sides. John conyers says no, others say it didnt happen. I believe Clarence Thomas was smeared at the last minute. Use the October Surprise after October Surprise, whether its a dui to george bush or an allegation in a campaign 30 days out of an election. Sometimes its not true. What do we do, how should people act when one side says it happened and without smearing them like the clintons did for 30 years and take their allegation seriously. Was it we need to find out we need to know. How do you balance that . I will get to sebastian in a minute. This is the issue now, we are bringing up a huge issue in congress. Sean am i right to give him the presumption of innocenc innocence . No, you are you are absolutely right. I think you should. Sean ive done my whole career. Im saying with all these victims, we discussed this over and over, thats what the
constitution provides. Absolutely. The problem with congress is there is not a body that is investigating carefully, distinctively and without some sort of theres a whole shadow over this Stomach Officf Compliance that women have to go to, not only women, men as well have to go to if they were harassed. At the Office Of Compliance is shrouded in secrecy. There might be a way for one all of these complaints to restructure that and have a better place for people. Sean if we are going to have a coming to jesus moment, i think in the end, as a father, i have three sisters, dr. Gorka. Just the people that admitted these things and groping franklin franken with what he did to. But it was conservatives that were out there on the women, and there was
tips. Request monica. There were a lot of other women involved in this too that i interviewed over the packages, use a credit card rather than a debit much damage do liberals do in terms of their mantle that they are the great protectors of womens rights, but they were involved in protecting the clintons all those the package. Find out question. Youve been very, were. Terms on of the reasonable holiday season. Whether its judge moore, john conyers. Lets ten lists of what you should consider avoiding getting your kids bigger issue. The left as a whole has making , the wonder woman Battle Action sword. Morals. They are plastic sword light has the potential to they made this all. The ted kennedy, whether it was covering for steamed for 30 years, it is just recalled because it can pose a
choking hazard this created a culture of permissiveness. As a result, the political side of. The watch list is needlessly sae support the they have completely hollowed out their own moral linda blair says the constant and early to see the reckoning,i want to see the Real Feminists E effect on our mental kind of hae wearing, only hate us. I get it. But they made this possible on their people we have to call, te holiday meals we have to prepare. Side. Lets talk about charlie rose. Charlie rose . Sean let me ask monica this question. What convinced me is it right from the getgo with the clintons, Gennifer Flowers had tapes. They actually said your doctor the taste. You could hear it was his voice, you can hear an intimate conversation that was going on there, but they still went out and denied it. Years later he had to admit it. If they are going and saying thats my question. It was a sensual relationship with Gennifer Flowers. Sean very different, agree, but he still lied. Yes. Sean that was part of it, and she was smeared and she was telling the truth, thats the difference. In the case of how much should shrines play a role . One of the things, as i talk to a two year expert in Handwriting Analysis said you give him was 42 years its an art, its a science, and he will be able to tell you forensically if the ink is new or old and forensically if you can look at his handwriting at the time with that yearbook, theres the answer. These investigations should go on because nobody should be smeared in this way if the charges are false. Problem is here, time is of the essence. Theres another point about hypocrisy that i want to make. Over the last couple of decades, every republican that has been embroiled in some sort of scandal, the left has piled on because they are saying that
conservative is a family values candidate. Sean you have no standards, you are better off. But the left is equally as hypocritical in this sense when they have positioned themselves as the champions of women. And yet in their private lives what is coming to light now is that their behavior against women has been absolutely atrocious. Sean closing remarks, dr. Gorka, we will go to you first. I think this is just the tip of the iceberg. I think we have to strap on our seat belts and hold tight because i think this is the beginning of an avalanche, and i hope it means that the left will have to clean house. No more double standards, no more playing the victim card. Sean they protected him through 2016. The only reason that theyre doing it now is because they dont need the clintons anymore. Clintons cant do anything for him anymore. Rebecca, last word. I agree with dr. Gorka. This is the beginning of an avalanche and i think its great
opportunity for us to change values in this country and to change the way we treat victims and how we handle sean i totally agree. We have to be careful. This is dangerous territory. A word of warning, this kind of behavior has no kind of political or partisan boundaries. Sean it doesnt. A lot of these perpetrators and predators are on the left. It could be a big conservative tomorrow, so lets just sean should franken have to resign or let the people of minnesota decide . Speak of the people of minnesota should decide, as the people of alabama should decide. Sean who should decide in his case with the picture . I think he should resign. Take himself out. Sean dr. Gorka . Absolutely. He has admitted it, we have the proof. Its not hearsay. Sean thank you for being with us. When we come back, Newt Gingrich is here, he will react to my opening monologue. Later, new details about the uranium one scandal, it is now beginning to cascade down as we get closer to the truth. And i have a challenge for nbc news. And a lack, you may want to turn your television on, that and more tonight on hannity. I can guide you in . No, thanks , santa, i got this. Looks a little tight. Perfect fit. Santa needs an f150. Thats ford, americas best selling brand. Hurry in today for 0 financing for 72 months across the full line of ford cars, trucks and suvs and just announced. Get 0 apr for 72 months plus 1000 cash back take advantage of these exclusive holiday offers during the ford year end sales event. Where and how . Sure. This whole thing, if you back out for a minute, this whole thing is crazy. Its a very good thing for us to explore. We are learning a lot of stuff that is a huge surprise. I dont see why if its a personal offense i dont see why the taxpayers ought to pay a penny. And i think that is something to look at carefully in terms of where have the taxpayers money gone to cover up incidents look like this. But i also want to take a minute, and maybe this makes me an outlier, or somebody who is out of touch with the times. I think this is an enormous difference between Harvey Weinstein, who clearly is a sexual predator, and who clearly was exploiting his position of power and president george h. W. Bush, who is in his 90s in a wheelchair. And i think we have all these things coming together because of the infantile stupidity of
our news media. As though they are all the same problem. Now the topic is an important topic. Finding a way to have not just a work place, but to have a community where people are not being harassed or being prayed upon, i think thats important. Finding with the rules ought to be, and i commend speaker paul ryan, will immediately responded by talking about getting mandatory training in the house. I think senator mcconnell is taking the same position in the senate. I think we deserve to know the american people, who did the money get paid out to, and who paid for it, and why is the taxpayer on the hook for any of this . So that part is a legitimate Public Policy question. Sean if they wanted anonymity they could have used their own dollars. If they want to make a deal that should be there money. No . Right. Absolutely. I think you will find the same thing is happening in corporations or people will be very skeptical of the idea that you could spend the stockholders
money to cover up things that the stockholders didnt approve of you covering up. But i also think i think we have on earth a lot more bad behavior and a lot more destructive behavior than anybody, certainly i would have thought was going to happen, including some very positive people who i am actually shocked to see you showing up and some of these attacks. Sean what about the cases where there is no clear line . Theres no al franken picture, and you dont know for sure . We saw what happened with the duke lacrosse kids, and thats one of just a number of example examples, which so many in the media have been so wrong so often. Theres a rift here, one allegation destroyed somebody and its not true or its far more nuanced than anybody wants to know. I think its time again i will go straight out on a limb about this. Weve had a very long tradition in america going all the way back to the the boston massacrn the 1770s that you are innocent until proven guilty. And that you have the right of a presumption of innocence. And i think, again, if you have somebody like Harvey Weinstein, who now has so many names out there that its almost inconceivable that He Isnt Guilty of a substantial amount of stuff, somebody remembered that 12 years ago they felt bad. I dont understand the standard that goes into that. And then, how do you prove what really happened, and how do you prove whether or not somebody really meant to do something negative . And i do think weve got to take a deep breath here and not have the hysteria allow us to start destroying people randomly so that you then set up targets were anybody who wants to can get even by suddenly remembering something that happened 20 years ago. Sean it gets hard too when there is politics in the
equation. Clarence thomas would be a case in point. Lastminute allegations thrown out there on the eve of a senate hearing, or on the eve of an election in october. George w. Bush the weekend before that election with al gore, the dui came out. In the whole year and a half prior, nobody knew about that . That wasnt planned . That wasnt a lastminute October Surprise . To influence voters, where if somebody doesnt really have a chance to help themselves or prove they have grown beyond an instance like that . I think thats part of it and part of it as manipulation of the public by liberal news media trying to make a point. Part of it is i think that you got to look at some of these things and ask yourself why are they coming up now, what is the evidence, and again, was it a situation that in fact was basically innocent, but is now subject to misinterpretation . When i see people who werent particularly offended ten or 12 or 15 years ago but suddenly there is now this hysteria and so they decide they are going to join the lynch mob and they got their story to tell, i just think we as a country ought to take a deep breath and think carefully. Again, i say this whether its about my wife, my two daughters, my granddaughter, for that matter my grandson. Remember, you have many instances now of Sexual Harassment that involves men as well as women. I think all of us want to protect the innocents, but we also have to remember that the innocent may be on both sides of that equation,
