Clinton pal: I warned ‘top-level Democratic operatives’ about Weinstein

The New York Post reports:
A TV writer and close Clinton family friend says she warned at least three “top-level Democratic operatives” against allowing Harvey Weinstein to host fundraisers.

“A warning that evidently (and to the glee of Fox News) fell on deaf ears,” writes “Designing Women” creator Linda Bloodworth-Thomason in a new Hollywood Reporter op-ed.

Weinstein gave thousands and bundled $1.42 million in donations to Hillary Clinton’s presidential run, but the former secretary of state has said she had no idea about the producer’s predatory ways.

Bloodworth-Thomason, who has created political promotional films for both Clintons, said she helped President Bill Clinton pen an apology amid his own sex scandal and that his actions have “taxed my feminist conscience” — but she still loves him “dearly.”
Imagine that.
