Hillary Clinton's aide describes sexual assault by a senator.
First Thing: Hillary Clinton aide describes sexual assault by senator
Huma Abedin, a longtime close aide to Hillary Clinton, has written in a new book that she was sexually assaulted by a US senator, an incident she “buried” until allegations against the supreme court justice Brett Kavanaugh triggered her memory years later.
Abedin makes the shocking claim in a memoir, Both/And: A Life in Many Worlds, which will be published next week. She writes that after a dinner attended by some senators and their aides, a senator invited her into his apartment for coffee.
“Then, in an instant, it all changed. He plopped down to my right, put his left arm around my shoulder, and kissed me, pushing his tongue into my mouth, pressing me back on the sofa,” she describes. “I was so utterly shocked, I pushed him away.”
Abedin writes that the senator seemed surprised but apologized and said he had “misread” her “all this time”. She considered how to leave “without this ending badly”, she writes, and apologised and left.
What happened after? Abedin writes that she stayed friendly with the senator and soon “buried the incident”, which she wanted to forget, succeeding in erasing it from her mind “entirely”.
Who was the senator? Abedin does not name the senator or his party or give any other clues as to his identity.
Why is this coming out now? Abedin’s memory of her experience on the unnamed senator’s couch, she writes, was triggered when she read about Christine Blasey Ford “being accused of ‘conveniently’ remembering” her alleged assault by Kavanaugh.
