Huma Abedin was married to serial pervert Anthony Weiner. She was also rape-enabler Hillary Clinton’s sidekick. Somehow in those vulnerable positions she escaped being sexual assaulted, but apparently a U.S. Senator got her. The former Clinton aide has accused a Senator of sexual assault but she won’t name him, so we know he’s a democrat.
Abedin has a horribly-titled book called Both/And: A Life in Many Worlds set to be released next week. The Guardian got their hands on a copy and found this little gem:
Abedin details her alleged assault while describing her work for Clinton when the former first lady and future secretary of state and presidential candidate was a US senator from New York, between 2001 and 2009.
Then, after describing a Washington dinner attended by “a few senators and their aides” but not Clinton, Abedin writes: “I ended up walking out with one of the senators, and soon we stopped in front of his building and he invited me in for coffee. Once inside, he told me to make myself comfortable on the couch.”
She says the senator took off his blazer, rolled up his sleeves and made coffee while they continued to talk.
“Then, in an instant, it all changed. He plopped down to my right, put his left arm around my shoulder, and kissed me, pushing his tongue into my mouth, pressing me back on the sofa.
“I was so utterly shocked, I pushed him away. All I wanted was for the last 10 seconds to be erased.”
Abedin writes that the senator seemed surprised but apologized and said he had “misread” her “all this time”. As she considered how to leave “without this ending badly”, she writes, the senator asked if she wanted to stay.
“Then I said something only the twentysomething version of me would have come up with – ‘I am so sorry’ – and walked out, trying to appear as nonchalant as possible.”
How is that a sexual assault? He kissed her, she wasn’t into it, and he stopped. He even apologized. He didn’t force her to do something or continue after she pushed away. If she had pushed him away as he came in for the kiss and he still kissed her, that’s an unwanted sexual advance. She saw him trying to kiss her and let him before changing her mind.
Also, being invited up to a man’s place for drinks is another way of saying, “let’s f*ck.” She went up with the Senator, knowing that he had more than coffee on his mind. This seems like a lie.
It seems even more like a lie with this next part:
Abedin writes that she kept away from the senator “for a few days” but then ran into him on Capitol Hill, nodding when he asked if they were still friends. Clinton then joined them, Abedin writes, “as if she knew I needed rescuing even though I’d told her nothing about that night”.
Hillary has never come to the rescue of a sexual assault victim in her life. In fact, she has a history of victim-shaming them.
This last part makes it extra-bullshitty:
Abedin writes that she stayed friendly with the senator and soon “buried the incident”, which she wanted to forget, succeeding in erasing it from her mind “entirely”.
Then, in late 2018, Kavanaugh was nominated to the supreme court by Donald Trump. A professor, Christine Blasey Ford, accused Kavanaugh of sexual assault at a party years earlier, an allegation Kavanaugh denied.
Abedin’s memory of her experience on the unnamed senator’s couch, she writes, was triggered when she read about Christine Blasey Ford “being accused of ‘conveniently’ remembering” her alleged assault.
This is a thinly-veiled attack on Justice Kavanaugh’s character, wrapped in a bullshit story.
Here’s the thing though, I actually do believe Abedin was sexually assaulted by a Senator, but she’s downplaying the details because he is a democrat. The question is, who is this unnamed rapist?
We know it’s not a Republican because if it was, she would have named him and given the real details of the assault. Chance are it was also a Senator from New York or the surrounding area. It could have been Chuck Schumer but he’s way too much of a goofball for something like this.
Joe Biden is pretty handsy and he was a Senator at the time and from the area. If it were him, that would explain why Abedin didn’t name him. Also, what she more or less described sounds pretty close to the way Joe Biden sexually assaulted Tara Reade.
Although, if Huma Abedin did write that Joe Biden sexually assaulted her, she’d sell a lot more books.
