A reference to the allegations was mentioned in an Atlantic article in 2004, but was dismissed as a smear.

Republican strategist Karl Rove said Monday he had been aware of allegations of sexual impropriety against The Lincoln Project co-founder John Weaver for more than 30 years.reported that Weaver had sexually harassed at least 21 men online, sometimes saying he would help them obtain work in politics. One of the individuals Weaver sent suggestive messages to was allegedly 14 years old when Weaver first contacted him.

The Lincoln Project disavowed Weaver in a Sunday statement. Weaver acknowledged the allegations of sexual harassment in a January statement. In a Monday appearance on"I've actually known about this pattern of behavior since 1988," Rove said."All I want to say is that those 21 statements from those 21 young men who talked about how they've been approached by Mr. Weaver, that statement speaks for itself and I don't have anything to add to it. It's a sad, sad chapter.

Strange that he didn't come forward and persist like he has for all his other lies and theories.

GOP LeaderMcConnell HouseGOP SenateGOP this is what happens when the left covers for their own, but the GOP leadership treats its members harsher and doesn’t go after the Socialist Dems with the same fervor it goes after their own. The leadership likes double standards.

Maybe he wants to shower with Gym Jordan.

So Karl Rove and the GOP have been protecting and shielding a sexual predator for at least 32 years? The Lincoln Project Never Trumpers arent the only enablers, Karl Rove and so many Republicans, especially leaders and movers and shakers like Karl Rove, are at major fault also.

...and he said and did nothing. Makes him complicit. It was ok when they were on the same side. Pathetic.

But Karl sat on those allegations when John was a good ol boy GOPer.. sounds about right.

As long as Weaver was a Republican, it was okay. Is that the message KarlRove ?

And basted in it.

And that makes him ?

Oh well thanks for pleading guilty Karl.

But waited until they were politically useful

Is this the same guy that turned his head at Baylor ?🐻🙈🙉🙊

So, that says what about KarlRove?

Honestly, Rove’s a 💩head! Idc what he said, b/c he’s a disaster of a man!

Just call me Jim Jordan.

And.....he didn’t say anything..... Typical.

Another small step: Tiny Hungarian water-tracker aims to rove the MoonA miniature rover being developed to explore the Moon's surface is on track to join the search for water there, its Hungarian inventors believe - using a device that weighs less than a bag of sugar. This miniature rover looks like an enthusiast parent's homemade toy, built of over-the-shelf cheap and light materials. The weird tires' shape makes it seem wobbly with clumsy motion, I wonder if it can tip over and right itself if accidentally it flipped over like a tortoise.
