In a tweet Geraldo Rivera said, "Sex misconduct from yrs ago was gross but Speaker Hastert is now a victim who should be given pass in exchange for testimony vs blackmailer." I was shocked when I saw that Tweet.
In my opinion Dennis Hastert is not a victim. He made a decision to make payments to a person for years in order to allegedly cover up his actions. Years ago Hastert could have refused to pay the money.

it is IMMORAL & WRONG, for always not just gross. F/U Rivera.
It's amazing, isn't it, that when caught out, conservatives are always the victims? I second your F/U to Rivera.
