Man Who Allegedly Called Tucker Carlson’s Daughter A ‘Wh**e’ Sits On The Board Of...
Quote:The Women’s Initiative refused to provide comment about Board of Directors member Juan Manuel Granados who allegedly attacked Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s daughter with vulgar language in a country club in October.
The women’s group refused to respond to The Daily Caller News Foundation’s multiple phone and email requests for comment, electing to remain silent following the allegations that Granados called Carlson‘s 19-year-old daughter a “whore” and a “f**king c**t” at the Farmington Country Club in Charlottesville, Virginia.
“Sorry, we don’t speak to reporters,” said a Women’s Initiative employee who answered TheDCNF’s first phone call requesting comment about its position regarding Granados and the alleged incident. Elizabeth answered the phone next, saying only, “We’re not offering comment.” She then hung up on TheDCNF.
TheDCNF called a third time to ask if Granados’s alleged actions comport with the group’s values and if it intends to take action. “I can’t speak to that, but we have no comment at this time,” said Andrea who answered the third phone call.
Granados is a member on the Women’s Initiative Board of Directors. The group seeks to “provide women with effective counseling, social support and education so they can transform life challenges into positive change and growth,” according to its website.
TheDCNF also emailed The Women’s Initiative and received no response.
The group’s refusal to respond comes after Carlson released a Twitter statement Sunday explaining what had occurred.
“Toward the end of the meal, my 19-year-old daughter went to the bathroom with a friend. On their way back through the bar, a middle aged man stopped my daughter and asked if she was sitting with Tucker Carlson,” Carlson wrote. “She answered, ‘That’s my dad,’ and pointed to me. The man responded, ‘Are you Tucker’s whore?’ He then called her a ‘f**king c**t.'”
Celebrity lawyer Michael Avenatti is representing Granados, a gay immigrant from Argentina. Avenatti called Carlson a liar Sunday and accused him of assaulting Granados.
Farmington Country Club allegedly investigated the incident and revoked Granados’s membership. Avenatti confirmed his client’s membership has been rebuked.
The club told The Washington Post that it disputes “inaccurate allegations being spread by individuals who were not present during the incident, and whose interpretation of events are refuted by the accounts of multiple eyewitnesses.”

If you write today's liberals into a movie script no one would believe your movie plot.

How many times this year has the left done something so outrageous that we said it had to be "staged", only to find out it was real.

Sounds like a nice upstanding guy. Brave fella, too. Like Acoster level brave, picking on 19 YO girls.
Funny thing, though. They're claiming it didn't even happen, but the CC summarily yanked this douch*s membership. I'd find that rather odd if nothing happened...

Uhm, Hollywood wouldn't release it until it was redacted to make the Republicans appear as monsters, and until it validated the Democrats' actions and language. And they would drop the claim in the credits that no Republicans were harmed in the making of the film.

I agree. The level of anger since the election is hard to comprehend.

It's not all genuine anger, but it may engender it in their intended victims. What they have learned is that shouting, "getting in your face", and making a scene usually makes decent folks recoil and avoid them, which gives them the appearance of being justified, and makes those fleeing them seem guilty.
The press being present is the whole governing principle of the action. Without an audience it's just noise. Without an audience those they attack might attack back.
But sooner or later they are going to run into a dangerous target that has no regard for their own image, or no self control, and then things will get out of hand.
What pisses me off with this whole tactic is that it is by its very nature an assault, with bullying intended. Where is the law enforcement? It's absent because of the fear of racial overtones and/or political overtones. Local law enforcement is all too frequently influenced by local political issues, and the personalities and wealth of those behind them.
