B R A V E woman. Mona Charen called out the Republican sexual harassers by name.
Mona called Marian LePen a Nazi outloud, too. Uproar ensued (new video at end)
I am guessing Ms. Charen was probably escorted out of the Republican Party as well. Hope Mona finds her new pole star.
In the last hours of the conference, #MeToo would finally have its CPAC moment.
The panel, moderated by Regnery Publishing’s Marji Ross, included West Virginia state representative Kayla Kessinger (pink dress), writer Mona Charen whose books include Sex Matters: How Modern Feminism Lost Touch with Science, Love and Common Sense, and the Daily Signal’s Kelsey Harkness (white dress), who has spent much of CPAC promoting her podcast, Problematic Woman.

………....“I’m actually gonna twist this around a bit and say that I’m disappointed in people on our side,” Charen said. “For being hypocrites about sexual harassers and abusers of women who are in our party. Who are sitting in the White House. Who brag about their extramarital affairs. Who brag about mistreating women. And because he happens to have an R after his name, we look the other way, we don’t complain.”
She continued: “This is a party that was ready to endorse — the Republican Party endorsed Roy Moore, for the Senate in the state of Alabama even though he was a credibly accused child molester. You can not claim that you stand for women and put up with that.” (At this point, several attendees began shouting things like “Not true!” and “It was a witch hunt!”)……

LePen is a Nazi, crowd reaction. A rather small crowd at that.

UPDATE: Cheran might have punked us and used CPAC as a PR Stunt for her book to be released in June. Grifters got to grift.
My panel was about the #MeToo movement, which was a natural for me since my new book coming out in June, “Sex Matters,” grapples with the movement and other aspects of our fraught sexual ecosystem.
