Verbal communication in the workplace will stop and end with "hey" before too long.

A former senior aide to Rep. Blake Farenthold has approached the House Ethics Committee to share a damning account of working for the Texas Republican, with the intent of describing the congressman as verbally abusive and sexually demeaning -- and his congressional office as an intensely hostile environment that drove the aide to physical and emotional distress.

One comment from the congressman was especially personal. Rekola was about to leave town to get married in July 2015, when, he said, Farenthold, standing within earshot of other staffers in his Capitol Hill office, said to the groom-to-be: "Better have your fiancée blow you before she walks down the aisle -- it will be the last time." He then proceeded to joke about whether Rekola's now-wife could wear white on her wedding day -- a clear reference, Rekola said, to whether she had had premarital sex.

During the nine months that he worked for the congressman, Rekola said, he was also subject to a stream of angry behavior not sexual in nature -- screaming fits of rage, slamming fists on desks and castigating aides, including regularly calling them "f**ktards."

OMG, he sounds just like Dane. I wonder who I can complain to about how he treats people around here and the emotion issues that he is causing.

When I started reading that I couldn't help but think typical NYT BS when she mentioned the part about Trump being accused of sexual harassment. She conveniently left out the part where it seems suspicious to a lot of folks when something like that happens right before an election. Also, there is that pesky little thing about his opponent's husband having been accused of the very same thing while Hill used brutal tactics to cover it up. And before anyone tries to attack me as some Trump fan, just know that I refused to vote for either of those crappy candidates.

Now that being said, her story of her history with Weinstein is horrible. He's a monster. And I agree that people like this need to be outed and removed from positions of power. I can't even relate to how a victim deals with this kind of stuff over a long period of time like she did. Believe me when I say that it is not my intent to blame the victim, but it is a shame that she didn't come forward sooner. I'm sure many more women were victims of that POS after her. I hope that these stories will influence future victims to come forward much sooner.
