Now things are getting interesting.

You know, I am continuously in awe of the hypocrisy of the MAGA stormtroopers, who will point to the tactics of the left, in outrage, while they’re secretly taking notes, in order to use the same tactics, when it is to their advantage.

I have said, and will continue to believe that the #MeToo movement began with noble purpose, but because of politics and disingenuous scheming, it was perverted and twisted into a weapon. Its purpose was lost, when the shrieking feminazi harridans of the feminist movement declared that if innocent men needed to be destroyed to achieve their purposes, then so be it.

I was willing to stand with those on the right who defended Judge Brett Kavanaugh against the attempts to deem him a rapist and a drunken abuser of women, based on decades-old accounts and transparent attempts to at revenge against Republicans by members of the left, who still feel Merrick Garland was “cheated” out of his shot at the Supreme Court.

Dr. Christine Blasey Ford came before the Senate Judiciary Committee with absolutely nothing but her word against Kavanaugh’s, and because she was a woman, that was supposed to be ironclad, irrefutable evidence that her every word was absolute truth.

That’s not enough.

The right were enraged, disgusted, and the debate was hot.

Men’s lives have been ruined by such allegations. Some of them as flimsy as what Dr. Ford presented.

So, of course, some on the right seem to be dipping into the left’s playbook and have sought to toss out a few unfounded accusations, of their own.

Say, what would happen if you paid off a few women to claim they’d been sexually abused by special counsel Robert Mueller?

Well, you get an FBI investigation.

An alleged scheme to pay off women to fabricate sexual assault allegations against Special Counsel Robert Mueller has been referred to the FBI for further investigation, according to a spokesman for the special counsel’s office, Peter Carr. “When we learned last week of allegations that women were offered money to make false claims about the Special Counsel, we immediately referred the matter to the FBI for investigation,” Carr said in a statement on Tuesday.

The special counsel’s attention to this scheme—which was brought to the office by a woman claiming she herself had been offered money to make up sexual harassment claims against Mueller—and its decision to release a rare statement about it to reporters indicates the seriousness with which the office is taking the purported scheme to discredit Mueller in the middle of an ongoing investigation.

Yashar Ali, a reporter for New York Magazine and the Huffington Post put this out on his Twitter feed, earlier Tuesday:

13 days ago I received this tip alleging an attempt to pay off women to make up accusations of sexual misconduct against Special Counsel Bob Mueller. Other reporters received the same email. Now the Special Counsel's office is telling us they've referred the matter to the FBI pic.twitter.com/oqh4Fnel5u

Interesting.

And disgusting.

So someone is attempting to find women who worked for Robert Mueller, in some capacity, and offering payment for false testimony.

The special counsel’s office confirmed that the scheme was brought to its attention by several journalists who were told about it by a woman alleging that she herself had been offered roughly $20,000 by a GOP activist named Jack Burkman “to make accusations of sexual misconduct and workplace harassment against Robert Mueller.” The woman told journalists that she had worked for Mueller as a paralegal at the Pillsbury, Madison, and Sutro law firm in 1974. The firm has not returned a request for comment about whether the woman actually worked there.

I tried to find Jack Burkman on social media. I found a right leaning radio personality and GOP lobbyist by the name of Jack Burkman on Facebook. He’s a conspiracy theorist that offered a $130,000 reward for information that would link the Clintons to the murder of DNC staffer, Seth Rich.

She further explained the contact that she had with this character.

The woman told reporters in an email, a copy of which I obtained, that she was contacted by a man “with a British accent” who wanted to ask her “a couple questions about Robert Mueller, whom I worked with when I was a paralegal for Pillsbury, Madison, and Sutro in 1974. I asked him who he was working for, and he told me his boss was some sort of politics guy in Washington named Jack Burkman. I reluctantly told [him] that I had only worked with Mr. Mueller for a short period of time, before leaving that firm to have my first son.”

She continued: “In more of an effort to get him to go away than anything else, I asked him what in the hell he wanted me to do. He said that we could not talk about it on the phone, and he asked me to download an app on my phone called Signal, which he said was more secure. Reluctantly, I downloaded the app and he called me on that app a few minutes later. He said (and I will never forget exactly what it was) ‘I want you to make accusations of sexual misconduct and workplace harassment against Robert Mueller, and I want you to sign a sworn affidavit to that effect.’” The man “offered to pay off all of my credit card debt, plus bring me a check for $20,000 if I would do” it, she wrote. “He knew exactly how much credit card debt I had, right down to the dollar, which sort of freaked me out.”

The woman doesn’t want this to turn into a whole thing, where she is talking to reporters further, but interestingly enough, Burkman released a video on his Facebook page, accusing Mueller of having a lifetime history of harassing women.

He made this claim, without proof or backing. He reiterated the baseless claim on his Twitter account.

In an emailed statement, Burkman denied knowing the woman who originally alerted journalists to the alleged scheme and called the FBI referral “a joke, mueller wants to deflect attention from his sex assault troubles by attacking me.” He added in a separate email that “on Thursday 1200 NOON ROSSYLN HOLIDAY INN we will present a very credible witness who will allege that Mr. Mueller committed against her a sexual assault.” Mueller’s spokesman reiterated that the claims are false.

Burkman is basically one of those slithering wretches that occupy the bowels of the alt-right swamp, feeding off of low-intellect and tribalism.

And if you’re excited by this because you think it might derail the ongoing Russia probe, you’re as bad as the left.
