We have ignored all the impeachment nonsense, all this time, we've ignored it.
I work on issues, I work on real things. I don't have time for crap. These essays on impeachment that have been going on for how many years?
F**k it. There are wars going on, there are families being destroyed by deportations, there are serious things to work on.
So we ignore that nonsense.
I'm not really interested in his or anyone else's crap "What the new Virginia legislature could do" -- on his impeachment nonsense, I've never reposted it here and I've never called him out on it here, we've just ignored it.
On the garbage of "What the new Virginia legislature could do"?
I've got call that garbage out.
I'm not in the mood for garbage. If you're writing right now about the Virginia legislature, you need to be writing about Joe Morrissey.

- Want to get to know one of the guys Democrats elected to State Senate last night? Say hello to Joe Morrissey. He was jailed 4 years ago after a sex scandal with an underage teen secretary who he later married. He had his law license revoked last year! Vile.https://wset.com/news/at-the-capitol/virginia-lawmaker-jailed-for-teen-sex-scandal-wins-senate-seat …
- Virginia Democrats just elected Joe Morrissey, a man previously indicted on felony charges of indecent liberties with a child, possession and distribution of child pornography, and electronic solicitation of a minor (for which he accepted a plea deal), to their state senate.
I'm not in the mood for this.
I'm also not in the mood to open a vein but I have noted I was assaulted as a child. I've noted that a lefty intellectual (still alive) tried to rape me as an adult. Those are only two experiences and, sadly, even all that I've gone through, many more people have suffered far worse.
I'm not in the mood to normalize the exploitation of children and women. The attackers do not belong in elected office.
If right now, you think the story in Virginia is what they can do -- and that's not voting to expell Joe Morrissey from their state house, you have serious problems.
I have been very kind, because Rebecca asked me to be, and reposted David's items here. But that can end immediately and may well do so. I'm not in the mood to promote anyone who is part of a culture that ignores abuse and rewards abusers.
ABC killing the Epstein piece in 2016 is a huge story -- even as so many try to ignore it. Joe Biden using Epstein pal Larry Summers to attack Elizabeth Warren is a huge story. These people -- and many others -- are embracing terrorism.
And it is terrorism. I've been that child who was abused. It is terrorism. I'm lucky in that I was kidnapped -- lucky because it wasn't a family member or friend so I didn't have prolonged exposure. But it is terrorism. And let's all flip the bird to everyone who looks the other way over and over.
Larry Summers decision to continue to be friends with a convicted pedophile renders him unfit for the public square. I'm not calling for his head on a platter. But he doesn't want to answer what he was doing with Jeffrey, he doesn't want to answer what he was doing on The Lolita Express. So he doesn't need to be in the public square.
A few e-mails came in this week asking what about Katie Couric, what about Woody Allen?
Woody went to a party, did he do more than that? I don't know. I only know Woody through Mia. But I don't see Woody being a spokesperson for Joe Biden. Or any other politician. I can't police people's personal lives but I can call for some basic decency in the public square, that those who have survived assault get the basic respect they deserve which includes the press not pimping Larry Summers and other 'experts' as voices to listen to.
I know Katie. She went to a party, a stupid thing to have done considering it was thrown by Epstein. New Yorkers of the left and faux left do a lot of stupid things. It's why I've never been tempted to live there. They're in a bubble that's really something to witness (read the WBAI supporters -- I'm not saying sell WBAI -- I am saying their supporters are writing the most fact free nonsense to defend WBAI, they just lie and that's a New York lefty, they lie to everyone and they all support each other on their lies, they're inbred in that way). Katie lives in that area and acted like an idiot in going to that party. It was stupid for her to attend. Guess what? We all do stupid things -- me more than anyone else. But she wasn't stupid enough to pursue a friendship with Epstein. It was stupid to attend that party -- he had already been convicted -- but we all do stupid things.
Larry Summers had a long relationship with Epstein. They traded favors. Money was exchanged. They traveled together.
He is not someone who should be allowed to speak on any topic by the press. He has refused to answer questions about his relationship with Epstein -- since Epstein's latest arrest and since Epstein's death. That's fine. Draw your veil, Larry. But don't think you can do that and also step into the public square and lecture or speak on any topic.
You're trash, you're garbage.
I'm tired of these people who terrorize or who make the decision to be friends with these people who terrorize.
Children are at risk. Women are at risk. There are some men who are at risk. I'm not going to be part of a culture that normalizes any sort of terrorism -- and that includes the assault that Epstein carried out, the assault that so many have gotten away with.
If you're writing about Virginia's state government right now, and you're not writing about Joe Morrissey, I don't respect you. You are part of the problem and you allow terrorism against children and women to continue.
You either call out this terrorism or you accept that you are advancing it.
And shame on the Democratic Party for Joe Morrissey.
This is the same party that groomed an idiot to replace Cynthia McKinney because they didn't like Cynthia. They groomed two idiots in fact to replace Cynthia. But they didn't feel the need to work to replace Joe Morrissey?
Shame on everyone involved.
And don't e-mail me saying Joe married his victim. I don't give a damn. He was a 58 year old man sleeping with an underage teenager. He's got a child by her and a child by three other women. She wasn't an adult. And he was her employer. It's disgusting. Again, shame on everyone involved.
Here's CRAPAPEDIA:
Disbarment and law license revocation[edit]
As an attorney, Morrissey was cited for contempt of court ten times and was jailed or arrested five times.[12] Records from the Virginia State Bar indicate that Morrissey received a public reprimand in March 1992, and had his law license suspended twice: once in December 1993 and then again in December 1999.[13]
On December 21, 2001, in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Morrissey was disbarred and on April 25, 2003, his license to practice law was revoked by the Virginia State Bar Disciplinary Board.[2]
"Frequent episodes of unethical, contumacious, or otherwise inappropriate conduct mar Joseph D. Morrissey's career as prosecutor and private defense attorney," the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit noted in September 2002. The court said, "Evidence … demonstrates Morrissey's 15-year history of contempt citations, reprimands, fines, suspensions, and even incarcerations arising from unprofessional conduct mostly involving an uncontrollable temper, inappropriate responses to stress and dishonesty."[7][14]
On December 16, 2011, the Supreme Court of Virginia approved a petition for his reinstatement to the bar.[15] However, Morrissey remains ineligible to practice in the federal court.[citation needed]
Conviction for delinquency of a minor[edit]
In August 2013, Morrissey was found by police to be in his home in Henrico County with a 17-year-old girl, now his wife, who was an employee of his law office. Morrissey, the girl, and her mother, denied any impropriety, but subsequently, a Henrico County court convened a grand jury to investigate a possible improper sexual relationship between Morrissey and the girl.[12] On June 30, 2014, Morrissey was indicted on felony charges of indecent liberties with a minor, possession and distribution of child pornography, and electronic solicitation of a minor, in addition to a misdemeanor charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor, for which conviction he served three months of a 12-month sentence. After being convicted, Morrissey resigned as a delegate at the Virginia House.[12]
According to statements from the prosecutor in court documents, Morrissey had sex with the girl multiple times in his law office in August 2013, and possessed a nude photograph of the girl, which he also sent to a friend.[12] Morrissey allegedly continued the relationship with the girl after she left his law office in August 2013, and the two allegedly shared a hotel room overnight in October 2013.[12]
Morrissey denied the charges, saying the girl came to him for advice about family problems and was being abused by her father, and that the special prosecutor was out to get him because of a personal vendetta. Morrissey said he rejected a plea bargain for a single misdemeanor in December 2013.[16] He vowed to fight the charges in court, declaring that he would be vindicated, and rejected calls to resign his House seat.[17]
Morrissey's case made national headlines in July 2014 when he used an obscenity on live television while reading a text message he claimed was planted on his phone by hackers.[17] He entered into a plea agreement in which he made an Alford plea to one misdemeanor charge and received an active jail sentence. News reports indicated that Morrissey would be eligible to attend sessions of the legislature on work release.[18]
Leading members of the Virginia Democratic Party, including Governor Terry McAuliffe called for Morrissey to resign his seat.[19] Morrissey resigned his seat on December 18, 2014,[20] but ran in the special election to fill the resulting vacancy. On January 13, 2015, while serving a six-month jail sentence, he won that election to reclaim his seat in the Virginia House of Delegates.[21]
William Neely, the special prosecutor appointed to investigate the Morrissey case, secured new felony indictments January 21, 2015 against Morrissey for perjury and for presenting forged documents during his sentencing hearing.[22]
Second License Revocation[edit]
In March 2018, the Virginia State Bar brought new charges of misconduct against Morrissey. A three-judge panel convened on March 26, 2018 to hear three separate allegations of misconduct. First, the Bar contended that Morrissey's criminal conviction and improper contact with his 17-year-old intern violated rules regarding criminal conduct by an attorney, and that Morrissey had destroyed evidence relating to the criminal case against him.[23] On March 28, the panel found that though the Bar had not shown that Morrissey destroyed evidence, they did find that the Bar had successfully demonstrated that Morrissey's relationship with his intern was "a criminal or deliberately wrongful act that reflects adversely on the lawyer's honesty, trustworthiness or fitness to practice law."[23]
On March 29, the panel considered charges stemming from Morrissey's representation of former Virginia governor Douglas Wilder and the United States National Slavery Museum in a tax matter.[24] Despite being subpoenaed, Wilder failed to appear, and so the disciplinary panel found insufficient evidence as to these charges. Wilder would later contest this decision, arguing that service of the subpoena had been improper.[24][25]
Finally, on March 30, the panel found that Morrissey had also violated legal ethics rules when he allowed another member of his firm to appear in court on behalf of one of the firm's clients.[25] That employee had passed the Bar Examination a short time before, but had not yet been sworn in by the Virginia Supreme Court. This made her ineligible to represent clients as an attorney, and as a result, Morrissey was found to have violated rules that require a lawyer to ensure that anyone under his or her supervision also follow ethics rules. The panel also noted that Morrissey had not informed his client that someone else would be present, itself a violation of the Bar's rules.
Based on the violations that it found Morrissey had committed and considering his prior disciplinary and legal difficulties, the panel ordered that Morrissey's law license be revoked effective June 15, 2018.[25]
Morrissey applied to the Virginia Supreme Court on June 13, 2018 for a stay of his revocation as he perfected an appeal to the Richmond Circuit Court ruling. In a 3 paragraph ruling, the Virginia Supreme Court denied the stay on June 14, 2018. Morrissey's law license was revoked for the second time on June 15, 2018.[26]. Morrissey's appeal of the revocation was denied by the Virginia Supreme Court on July 18, 2019.[27]
