Because if there\u2019s one thing you can say about the Democrat Party, it\u2019s that all of its women are far too likable. Not a single nag in sight over there.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pemberton said skeptics of <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2026\/10\/14\/cornells-president-understands-responsibility-he-should-insist-jane-doe-do-the-same\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2026\/10\/14\/cornells-president-understands-responsibility-he-should-insist-jane-doe-do-the-same\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the 2024 \u201cCornell Seven\u201d gang rape allegations<\/a>, filed in a civil suit last month by a woman named only as \u201cJane Doe,\u201d intended to \u201cportray Doe as a kind of out-of -control sexual fiend.\u201d He said critics, however, are \u201cunable to dispute the basic narrative of the assault.\u201d Both assertions are laughable, and it\u2019s a wonder that Pemberton\u2019s editor didn\u2019t spank him and then send him home for making them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nobody is portraying Doe as anything. It\u2019s in <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2026\/10\/06\/even-jane-does-own-story-about-the-cornell-7-is-a-bad-look-for-her\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2026\/10\/06\/even-jane-does-own-story-about-the-cornell-7-is-a-bad-look-for-her\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">her own lawsuit<\/a> that she got drunk then went to see a male friend at a fraternity house before proceeding to engage in a drug-fueled threesome. She contemporaneously assured those involved that it was consensual, and she told others that it was true, she had been involved in group sex, without any indication she had been offended, let alone assaulted. She also told one of the men involved that she was looking forward to attending an upcoming party at the same house where the incident occurred.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was only after Doe had been disinvited from that party that she began suggesting that the sex was not consensual. There\u2019s not much left to dispute as far as the \u201cbasic narrative\u201d goes. Doe said multiple times she had agreed to the group sex. She said it to multiple people. Then she said the opposite almost two weeks later. And then two years later, she filed a lawsuit, and her <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2026\/10\/14\/the-cornell-7-fallout-is-infantilized-women-and-villainized-men\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2026\/10\/14\/the-cornell-7-fallout-is-infantilized-women-and-villainized-men\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">lawyer says<\/a> it\u2019s her own sorority\u2019s fault that she was allowed to leave the sorority house that night after having gotten drunk (something she did to herself at the adult age of 20).<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s true that many people online \u2014\u00a0whether they\u2019re on the \u201cright,\u201d I don\u2019t know \u2014 have attempted to expose Doe\u2019s identity, which Pemberton called \u201crelentlessly harassing.\u201d If it\u2019s harassment to have your name published while being accused of unspeakable horrors, the seven men Doe is accusing might have their own lawsuit to file. Their names were <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2026\/09\/29\/nyregion\/cornell-daily-sun-newspaper-rape.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">first published<\/a> by Cornell\u2019s student newspaper. Their faces were posted online, and Doe\u2019s public lawsuit names them all individually. Sounds fair to me.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nobody is gleeful about the rape allegations. To the contrary, all serious people are angry. Pemberton is angry, too, but only because his preferred narrative has been all but proven to be a lie. Now he\u2019s making up his own lie and calling people bigots.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">\n<div class=\"article-author-description fst-italic\">   Eddie Scarry is the D.C. columnist at The Federalist and author of &#8220;<a href=\"\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0FR8XCMYC\">Traitors: The Democrat Party\u2019s Collapse into Anti-American Filth<\/a>.&#8221;<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"article-author mt-30 mt-sm-60 pt-30 bdr-top-bold-black\">\n<div class=\"row g-0 align-items-center\">\n<div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n<div class=\"article-author-profile d-flex align-items-center justify-content-center justify-content-md-start\">\n<div class=\"article-author-details\">\n<div class=\"label-md\">Eddie Scarry<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-author-twitter label-sm d-flex align-items-center mt-10\">             <i class=\"mdi mdi-twitter me-5\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>             <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Visit on Twitter<\/span>            <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/eScarry\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"text-decoration-none\">@eScarry<\/a>           <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-12 col-md-6 d-flex justify-content-center justify-content-md-end mt-15 mt-md-0\">        <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/author\/eddiescarry\/\" class=\"btn btn-black btn-small\">More Articles<\/a>     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"article-tags no-print bdr-top-black mt-30 mt-sm-60 pt-15 pt-md-45\">\n<ul class=\"list-unstyled d-flex flex-wrap align-items-center mb-0 mx-n10 p-0\">\n<li class=\"mt-10 mx-10\"><a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/tag\/metoo\/\" class=\"btn btn-black btn-small\">#MeToo<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"mt-10 mx-10\"><a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/tag\/cornell\/\" class=\"btn btn-black btn-small\">Cornell<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"mt-10 mx-10\"><a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/tag\/cornell-7\/\" class=\"btn btn-black btn-small\">Cornell 7<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"mt-10 mx-10\"><a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/tag\/drugs\/\" class=\"btn btn-black btn-small\">drugs<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"mt-10 mx-10\"><a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/tag\/media\/\" class=\"btn btn-black btn-small\">Media<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"mt-10 mx-10\"><a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/tag\/nathan-tayler-pemberton\/\" class=\"btn btn-black btn-small\">Nathan Tayler Pemberton<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"mt-10 mx-10\"><a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/tag\/new-york-times\/\" class=\"btn btn-black btn-small\">New York Times<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"mt-10 mx-10\"><a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/tag\/sexual-assault\/\" class=\"btn btn-black btn-small\">Sexual Assault<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Image Credit Good Morning America\/YouTube Share Share Article on Facebook Share Article on Twitter Share Article on Truth Social Copy Article Link Share Article via Email Whenever a left-winger in the dying media knows his side is losing an argument, he breaks the emergency glass and starts calling people bigots.
