United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley said Sunday "the time has come" for women who have been mistreated or violated by men to speak up and be heard, even if those women are accusing President Donald Trump of misdeeds.

"I am incredibly proud of the women who have come forward. I'm proud of their strength. I'm proud of their courage. And I think that the idea that this is happening, I think it will start to bring a conscience to the situation, not just in politics, but in, you know, we've seen in Hollywood and in every industry. And I think the time has come," Haley told John Dickerson on CBS News' "Face the Nation."

Haley's comments come amidst a torrent of sexual harassment and misconduct allegations lodged against powerful men in Washington and in the film industry.

Even if there was no sexual harassment or misconduct?

Especially if the story is hot.

On a serious note, what if the story is bogus? Are we just supposed to give a free pass to any woman claiming anything?

Agreed.  Like Joe Barton.

How much more heard can you be? Dominated news here for months. Heard vs blindly believed is two different things.

Definitely avoid the term ‘sweet butt,’ especially if you’re familiar with Sons of Anarchy.

To hate them, first we'd need to understand them.

To understand them, we'd need to listen to them.

To listen to them, we'd need to be able to hear them.

Which reminds me, I need to do my own laundry.
