Nah, call me when the Washington post prints it.

So instead of sexting with a 15 year old while in bed with his son, he was sexting with a 17 year old while in bed with his son. All after a similar sexting episode exploded all over the news, ruined his career and publicly embarrassed him and his family on a national level, yeah?

I mean...did I miss the part where he's innocent or something?

Even if she was 17, he thought he was sexting a 15 y/o. Didn't we have a whole show about this kind of stuff years back? No matter what he's still guilty of the same crime.

yikes

I get all my important news from WhoWhatWhy.

Surprised that The Hill would go with this.

Same a little odd.

1, Nobody is saying that, in fact most posters who've touched that aspect have said "still a scumbag"
2. If she colluded with the GOP it's a big deal
3. Doesn't matter because it smells fake as hell. Her age would have been simple discovery and Weiner wouldn't have had to plead guilty.

On a strictly legal sense...maybe? I'm not sure.

goddamn it, so Louise Mensch was in some small part correct for once

EDIT: or not, given the source

That's kind of what I'm saying, their standards are pretty high, so if they ran the story I assume an editor checked it out and it isn't just random FreedomDaily type nonsense.

Would be interesting to see if there's more to their story. At this point it does seem pretty crazy

If you fling shit at a wall some pieces will stick

She said it was a male Russian hacker in his 20s. So no, not really.

 

[fallengorn]

Yeah... let me know when there's a better source for this.

 

[Geist-]

TheHill is trash, they're about as trustworthy as Breitbart.

 

[Escape Goat]

Yeah... let me know when there's a better source for this.

I just checked with WhenWhereHow com and its all 110% true.

Feel free to re-post if a better source for this turns up.
