During the Brett Kavanaugh hearings, democrats told as that all women accusers must be believed. What they meant by that was that any woman accusing a Republican must be believed, but when it comes to one of their own, not so much. Democrats don’t care that Senator Cory Booker admitted to sexually assaulting a drunk girl in high school and they don’t give a rat’s ass about the mountain of evidence that Rep. Keith Ellison abused his ex-girlfriend. Senator Claire McCaskill cares so little that she married a guy accused of beating and urinating on his ex-wife. Yes, urinating.
Missouri democrat McCaskill is married to some dude named Joseph Shepard. Because she is a fierce liberal woman warrior, she didn’t take his last name, but she certainly took on his baggage. As Fox News reports, McCaskill’s hubby is a real piece of work:
Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill’s husband was accused of domestic violence by his ex-wife…
A graphic protection order once filed by Joseph Shepard’s ex-wife even alleged he hit her, tripped her and “peed on” her.
Honestly, who pees on another human being? Apparently Joseph Shepard does, and it’s actually much worse than it sounds.
In 1993, Shepard’s then-13-year-old daughter called the police to report that her mother, Suzanne Shepard, was a victim of a late-night assault, according to a police report obtained by Fox News. Shepard was listed as the only involved person.
Five years later, in 1998, police were called again to the Shepard house. The police reported the wife claiming Shepard came to retrieve a carpet from the house and got involved in a dispute over marital problems. He then “proceeded to grab her right arm and push her,” the incident report read.
The incident prompted the wife to file an adult abuse petition for order of protection against Shepard, where she provided additional details on what happened that night.
“Police called by friend in my home. Joseph entered my home. I told him to leave. He came up to me looking angry. I put my hands up to protect my breasts as they are sore (cancer). He has hit me before in the breast. He grabbed my wrist and arm and pushed me up against the wall & I hit my head & back & he bruised my arms by pinching me,” wrote Shepard’s ex-wife.
And there’s more:
“I am afraid of [Shepard] and there is an immediate and present danger of abuse or stalking of me. He has tripped me, hit me before (police were called by my daughter), punched my cancer breast, peed on me, pushed me down and slapped me. He now threatens that everything I have is his and I will end up in his low income housing and he wants to take my things,” the ex-wife wrote.
Punched her cancer breast and peed on her? Can you imagine if a woman made this accusation against a Republican?
For his part, Shepard doesn’t appear as if he disputed any of this. In the police report he basically said she started it, but never said he didn’t do the things he was accused of.
McCaskill married Shepard in 2002, just 4 short years after he was punching his ex-wife’s cancerous boob and pissing on her. I wonder how McCaskill can reconcile her support for survivors of sexual and physical abuse with the accusations against her own husband. I actually don’t wonder that at all. She’s a democrat and these types of things are only bad when Republicans do them.
Hillary Clinton, and the entire Democratic Party, never cared when Bill Clinton was raping and groping women. Why should they suddenly give a shit that Claire McCaskill’s husband has very disturbing and credible accusations of abuse against him?
