Trump campaign staffer Jessica Denson sues to void nondisclosure agreement

A Los Angeles woman who worked for President Donald Trump’s campaign has filed a federal lawsuit in Manhattan to void a confidentiality agreement she signed, claiming the agreement has been "weaponized" to silence her allegations of discrimination.

Jessica Denson, a journalist and actress, said in court documents filed on March 26 that she was consistently disparaged and sexually and verbally harassed by her supervisor while working for the campaign as a phone bank administrator and later as the Hispanic outreach coordinator.

Denson sued Trump's campaign in New York state court for discrimination in November. She said she suffered from emotional distress due to the "pervasive slander, aggravated harassment, attempted theft, cyberbullying and sexual discrimination and harassment" she endured at the hands of her supervisor.

Denson, who is representing herself in both suits, is the third woman to come forward to attempt to quash a confidentiality agreement connected to the president. Adult film star Stormy Daniels has sued the president to nullify a nondisclosure agreement about an alleged affair, while former Playboy model Karen McDougal also filed a lawsuit for the right to speak publicly about a "sexual relationship" she says she had with Trump more than a decade ago.

I don't really trust it, but Denson is real.

A snip from the Raw Story story:

“I think the supporters of this campaign should be among the most outraged, that they have been taken for fools and used,” she said. “These NDAs say that someone who signed them will have a lifetime of allegiance to everything related to Trump. That if they dare to do anything but praise and be a sycophant for this president, that their very livelihood will be threatened. This is un-American, this is unconstitutional.”

Can you believe this kind of shit? A lifetime of allegiance? That's fucking absurd and creepy.
