The Roux Comes First
(1,984 posts)The slightest spark of humanity left in him, not something demonstrated by almost any repuke congressional folks, cabinet members, or maggots for several years now.
We could obviously run out a few dozen names, all inhuman ghouls, but what;s the point.

(49,426 posts)Elizabeth Warrens on his ass already:
For decades, Larry Summers has demonstrated his attraction to serving the wealthy and well-connected, but his willingness to cozy up to a convicted sex offender demonstrates monumentally bad judgment, Warren told CNN. If he had so little ability to distance himself from Jeffrey Epstein even after all that was publicly known about Epsteins sex offenses involving underage girls, then Summers cannot be trusted to advise our nations politicians, policymakers, and institutions or teach a generation of students at Harvard or anywhere else.

(2,725 posts)Having been a female in a male-dominated profession, I can't help but identify with the poor mentee. Or, for that matter with any female former Summers mentee. I can't imagine being in a situation where anyone who knows your professional background (i.e. that Summers was your mentor) is wondering if you got your experience/recommendations because your mentor wanted to sleep with you. And if you are that mentee, knowing that Summers was getting advice about pursuing you from a now-famous sex criminal would be quite chilling.
