Conyers says he’s ‘retiring today’ amid sexual misconduct allegations. How about the unfunny comedian Al Franken next? Conyers endorsed his son to replace him. We hope the apple fell far from the sexual harassment tree.

REVEALED: Top Democrat Paid Off Sexual Harassment Accuser With $27K In Taxpayer Money
REVEALED: Top Democrat Paid Off Sexual Harassment Accuser With $27K In Taxpayer Money. Hey where’s CNN, MSNBC, NYT, WaPo and the rest who have been screaming about Judge Roy Moore? Hello? Bueller? Bueller?
The congressman, Michigan Rep. John Conyers, is described as a serial sexual harasser who would prey on his female staffers in sworn affidavits signed by four of his former staffers.
“One of my duties while working for Rep. Conyers was to keep a list of women that I assumed he was having affairs with and call them at his request and, if necessary, have them flown in using Congressional resources,” one affidavit states. Another staffer told BuzzFeed that Conyers, who is the longest-serving congressman, used taxpayer funds to fly women into see him.
John Conyers tells Democratic Socialists how much they have in common with President Obama
Here’s Congressman John Conyers (D-MI) telling the Democratic Socialists of America how much he and President Obama have in common with the socialist One Nation group.
The radical rally otherwise known as One Nation really is the gift that just keeps giving. Seems like another interesting new video leaks out every day.
For example, here’s Congressman John Conyers (D-MI) telling the Democratic Socialists of America how much he and President Obama have in common with the group.
But whatever you do, don’t call President Obama a socialist. That would be racist no matter how much he has in common with the Democratic Socialists.
John Conyers is nuttier than a friggin’ fruitcake (Note: not intended as a Barney Frank reference)
The old coot recently went on a rambling rant in which he said the lame duck Congress will – among other things – cut social security and investigate Karl Rove.
Democrat Congressman John Conyers may not lose his election, but it appears that he’s lost his mind.
The old coot recently went on a rambling rant in which he said the lame duck Congress will – among other things – cut social security and investigate Karl Rove.
Yes, that Karl Rove.
“I don’t want to go back into history,” Conyers said, “but Karl Rove is at it again and I think we ought to take a new look at him based on the fact that when we were deciding what to do with him he was out doing more mischief and so I think that calls for a re-investigation of him….”
Two words: term limits.
John Conyers’ wife tells judge, “I may be guilty of extortion, but I never took a bribe”
Former Detroit City Councilwoman Monica Conyers let fly a string of excuses and requests Wednesday, asking Cohn to set aside her guilty plea and consider her children and aging husband, U.S. Rep. John Conyers.
“Well, nobody never ‘splained it to me that way,” said the judge, “So let me just set you free.”
Consider that a paraphrase. Because what U.S. District Judge Avern Cohn actually did was send Monica Conyers, a former member of the Detroit City Council, up the proverbial river for 37-months.
MLive.com reports from the detritus that is Detroit:
After months of relative silence following her plea deal, the former Detroit City Councilwoman let fly a string of excuses and requests Wednesday, asking Cohn to set aside her guilty plea and consider her children and aging husband, U.S. Rep. John Conyers.
“I don’t feel I should go to jail for something I didn’t do,” she told Cohn. “And it’s been said that you’re going to make an example of me, and the news media is pressuring you to put me to jail, and I just don’t feel that’s appropriate.”
She also vowed an appeal, a promise she made good on later in the day.
The Detroit Free Press reports Conyers filed a notice of appeal Wednesday afternoon and was appointed representation by the Federal Defender’s Office. Her attorney, Steve Fishman, told the newspaper he would not represent her in the appeal.
Her appeal is a long shot however, as the plea deal she signed in June indicates that if she receives a sentence of five years or less she “waives any right to appeal her conviction or sentence.”
Conyers resigned from the Detroit City Council in June after admitting she accepted cash from Houston-based Synagro Technologies in exchange for her vote on a sludge-hauling contract with the city in 2007.
“I may be guilty of extortion, but I never took a bribe,” she told Cohn.
Well, that just about settles it for us. This woman doesn’t deserve jail time, she deserves a Nobel Peace Prize.
