Swiss Democrat donor hit with sexual harassment suit
Yet again, a big-money man for the Democrat Party is tied up in a sexual harassment suit.
This time, it is Swiss billionaire Hansjörg Wyss.
Harvey Weinstein
This issue is clearly not just limited to the Democrat Party, but is sure seems like the people who donate the most have some pretty dark closets they are trying to keep closed.
To that point, when Harvey Weinstein was indicted, it sent a shock wave through the party for the access he had to some of the most influential Democrats in the party, including Barack and Michelle Obama.
For instance, Weinstein once hosted a fundraiser at his home in New York for Barack Obama, and Michelle Obama publicly gushed over Weinstein for his help with the campaign, as well as other leftist causes to which he had donated.
After Weinstein was arrested and charged, some Democrats gave back the donations he had made, but it became quite clear that everyone knew what Weinstein was doing, but nobody wanted to say something because of his power and influence.
Jeffrey Epstein
I don’t know that we have ever had a more famous pedophile in this country than Jeffrey Epstein.
And again, while he donated to both parties, Epstein was far more entrenched with Democrats than he was with Republicans, most notably Bill Clinton, who had traveled with Epstein in the past as well as having used Epstein’s plane.
Epstein had also donated $20,000 to Hillary’s campaign in 1999 for the Senate, with Bill Clinton receiving donations from him during his presidential runs.
After Epstein was arrested, Dems tried to run for cover. For example, John Kerry stated, "Obviously, donations received in 1991 and 2002 were spent years before any of this came to light. Back when he did have an active campaign, if donors were convicted of crimes, the campaign gave away those contributions to charity, and this small amount was likely given away in 2008."
Hansjörg Wyss
Now Hansjörg Wyss is being hit with a lawsuit for having allegedly harassed a former employee at one of his California wineries.
The alleged accuser, Madison Busby, claims that Wyss made unwanted advances on her when she was working at the Halter Ranch winery in Paso Robles.
She further claimed that he groped her, exposed himself, and shared graphic stories with her.
Wyss has donated more than $650 million via dark money groups associated with Democrats in recent years, and I guess we all know what that money was for now. Nothing like building a rainy-day fund.
