Caught Up in Sexual Misconduct Parade, John Conyers Follows His Wife Into Disgrace
John Conyers admits he is too dumb to read bills like ObamaCare before voting to impose them, so it is no surprise that he lacks the smarts to avoid getting swept up in the sexual misconduct parade:
Michigan Rep. John Conyers, a Democrat and the longest-serving member of the House of Representatives, settled a wrongful dismissal complaint in 2015 with a former employee who alleged she was fired because she would not “succumb to [his] sexual advances.”
Documents from the complaint obtained by BuzzFeed News include four signed affidavits, three of which are notarized, from former staff members who allege that Conyers, the ranking Democrat on the powerful House Judiciary Committee, repeatedly made sexual advances to female staff that included requests for sexual favors, contacting and transporting other women with whom they believed Conyers was having affairs [including flying them around at public expense], caressing their hands sexually, and rubbing their legs and backs in public.
Congress’s Office of Compliance has paid out $17 million of our money over the past 2 decades in settlements that include sex harassment cases. However, that’s not where the cash came from to hush this Conyers employee. She was paid off with around $27,000 of taxpayer money, but it came out of Conyers’ office budget. Deceptive accounting practices were employed to cover up the scandal.
Conyers is a “civil rights icon” and a founding member of the Congressional Black Caucus, so he might believe he can get away with anything.
“Your story won’t do sh** to him,” said [a Conyers] staffer. “He’s untouchable.”
But his wife Monica, 36 years his junior, wasn’t untouchable. Here we see her in her past capacity as Detroit City Council President Pro Tempore:
More Monica Conyers:
Besides bribery, Monica Conyers is best known for using on-the-clock police to chauffeur her children around, getting into a bar fight, calling one of her colleagues “Shrek,” and making fun of another colleague for having a hearing aid and possibly cancer.
After she finished her time for bribery, Monica Conyers got a job for a local radio station, but was fired “for trying to book a $750-per-night hotel room on the company’s account.”
John Conyers’ own past scandals include his staff apparently swiping 60 turkeys just before Thanksgiving that were intended for the poor.
Give power and other people’s money to people of this caliber, and the abusive results will be predictable — even if they are civil rights icons.
