machine, and Monday\u2019s release\u00a0had a bombshell: in 2011, her high level staff discovered Anthony Weiner was messaging an underage girl on Twitter.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Since the high level staffers knew their boss Hillary Clinton cares about women, they alerted her of the problem and called the police.<\/p>\n<p>No? \u00a0Well, they\u00a0called Child Protective Services and filed a report in order to protect the girl.<\/p>\n<p>No? \u00a0Well, at least her staff\u00a0called Anthony Weiner into her office along with his wife (Hillary\u2019s close confidant) to discuss his problem and require counseling.<\/p>\n<p>Oh sorry\u2026 \u00a0I was temporarily\u00a0blinded by campaign rhetoric. \u00a0None of those things happened. \u00a0Guess what did?<\/p>\n<p>Nothing. \u00a0The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-3890748\/Clinton-s-inner-circle-knew-FIVE-YEARS-AGO-Anthony-Weiner-talking-underage-girl-did-it.html\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Daily Mail reports<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">John Podesta \u2013 now chair of Clinton\u2019s presidential campaign \u2013 and Neera Tanden, another adviser, were forwarded news of an investigation into Weiner\u2019s online contact with a 17-year-old Delaware high school student by Jennifer Palmieri, the current campaign communications director, in June 2011.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ext-gen124\" class=\"mol-para-with-font\">At the time he was married to Huma Abedin, another member of Clinton\u2019s inner circle, who is now at the center of fresh FBI investigation into the handling of classified material while Clinton was in office.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The email detailed lurid claims of private messages to an underage girl being investigated by police \u2013 and was met with the response \u2018oof\u2019 by Podesta.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The\u00a0crazy campaign season of 2016 cannot be seen solely through the lens of sex, sexual assault, or gender issues, but it\u2019s a shame that both\u00a0parties were shown\u00a0to have both a\u00a0callous disregard for the victims of\u00a0sexual predators and also an eagerness to use\u00a0the others\u2019 victims as political pawns.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, you know the rest of the story. \u00a0Weiner was caught allegedly exchanging sexual\u00a0text messages with a 15-year-old \u2014 including a sexual photo of him while his son was on the bed beside him.<\/p>\n<p>If Hillary Clinton is brought down, it could be because her staff refused to take the necessary steps to drive Congressman Weiner from the public sphere when they realized his inappropriate behavior toward a child five years ago. \u00a0But that\u2019s certainly cold comfort for the victims that Weiner may have accumulated between then and now.<\/p>\n<p>Oof, in deed.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If Hillary Clinton is brought down, it
