Bill Shine latest sexual harassment employee in the white house said he didn't use the word 'ban'

says he 'blocked' the CNN reporter from the White House.

These fuckers are beyond the pale.

I will dance in the streets when these assholes are escorted out of our house.


White House announces hiring of former Fox News exec Bill Shine

His move from Fox to the White House further solidifies the backscratching relationship between TV network and Trump's orbit. But it's especially eyebrow-raising because Shine resigned last year amid a flurry of sexual harassment allegations within the network.

Shine was a key deputy of powerful Fox News chairman Roger Ailes. When Ailes was accused of sexual harassment by numerous women in 2016, Shine was accused of covering up the alleged misdeeds.

Some of the accounts portrayed Shine as Ailes' protector and fixer. Shine was named in at least four lawsuits or allegations related to alleged sexual harassment or racial discrimination at the network. He has denied all wrongdoing. And he has never been accused of harassment himself.

The liberal group UltraViolet issued a statement calling Shine's hiring "disturbing" but "unsurprising." The group said the "Trump White House has been a revolving door of sexual abusers and their enablers."

Someday one of these creeps will really and truly ruin his career for being a sexual abuser or enabler. It hasn't happened yet, but it could. Someday.
