Lisa Bloom was honored to be on Weinstein’s team? I would think she would have wanted to be on the front end of this before it was released...😖

Kind of disappointing but then, the whole thing doesn't actually surprise me. I'm almost immune to that sensation.

I couldn’t believe how disgusting and revolting and vile she is.

Lisa Bloom is an enabler and predator herself.

I feel physically ill reading this and so should every woman who had ever been a victim of sexual abuse and harassment.

The women who procured children for Epstein, and those who sent actresses to Harvey Weinstein's door knowing what would be expected of them. In fact, the sad truth is, the #1 threat to women's rights has always been women who enable misogyny by helping men propagate it while trying to discredit other women. There is a special place in hell for people who demonize and oppress their own demographic.

"A little bit nutty, a little bit slutty." After all, it worked for years to cover up for predators. No surprise that Bloom proposed it to her new client. A page and a half, though? Might as well run the meter; the client's rich and won't miss the money.
