Malia Obama Worked For Sexual Predator To Repay Obama’s Campaign Debt, Here’s How He Used Her

Amid news of years of sexual harassment allegations against movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, questions arose about his relationship with former President Barack Obama and his family — most notably daughter Malia, who interned at Weinstein’s company in New York.

Allegations came to light regarding sexual harassment towards actresses and other women in the film industry, starting with actress Ashley Judd. In an interview with the New York Times, Judd recalled meeting Weinstein at a hotel room where he propositioned her to give him a massage or for her to shower in front of him.

“How do I get out of the room as fast as possible without alienating Harvey Weinstein?” Judd recalled questioning at the time.

More recently, a female assistant of Weinstein’s told colleague Lauren O’Connor that the mega-producer forced her to give him a massage while he was naked. O’Connor said the experience left the assistant “crying and distraught.”

“There is a toxic environment for women at this company,” O’Connor wrote in a letter addressed to executives at the company.

Weinstein, a consistent contributor to Hilary Clinton’s presidential campaign and other democratic campaigns, was found to have almost three decades of allegations against him — during which time he reportedly reached eight settlements with several women.

“I appreciate the way I’ve behaved with colleagues in the past has caused a lot of pain, and I sincerely apologize for it. Though I’m trying to do better, I know I have a long way to go,” Weinstein said in a statement to the New York Times after the allegations came to light.

Malia Obama, Hollywood Reporter reported, worked for Weinstein during a break before starting college. The producer hosted fundraisers for Obama’s father in 2012 and donated to his reelection campaign in 2011.

Many readers questioned whether former-President Obama knew of the allegations against Weinstein when he let his daughter intern with him.

“Nothing shocks me about any Obama, except that so many voted for him and his family twice. Says as much about the people of America as about the Obamas,” one Mad World News reader commented on the site’s Facebook page in response to the story.

“So sorry that they sent their daughter to this man that has no respect for young women.How could they have done this to their firstborn. It shows that they have no love for her and will use her for anything,” another wrote.

“WOW! Could they have been so power hungry that they would basically sell their own daughter to him? How awful if true,” another added.
