Robert’s pants are on fire.
Here are all the emails between MEF and Puja:
2 FW_ [MEF Miami] Invitation to be a Panelist
3 FW_ [MEF Miami] Consent, Compliance, and Regulation_ The Legal Town Hall
4 FW_ [MEF Miami] Invitation to be a Panelist
5 FW_ MEF Conference – Miami, FL
6 RE_ [MEF Miami] Legal Panel Prep Call
And here is the transcription of the SINGLE VM TJ left (none from Dario):
When you review these items you will find the following:
- After some early shuffling Puja and TJ (panel moderator) met on February 9, 2024 to prepare for the panel;
- At TJ’s request Puja reached out to Ron Allen of DNC to try to have him join as well. He was unable to;
- TJ did not respond to Puja’s emails on the subject–not vice versa;
- On March 5, 2024 TJ offered a prep call “this week or next week”
- With no other contact, on the subject TJ left a single voicemail for Puja on March 6, 2024;
- Then on March 8, 2024 Dario kicked Puja off the panel;
- Only after the issue was raised on social media did Dario claim a willingness to talk to Puja on the phone. But he never called her. Just a two line email.
That’s it. Those are the facts.
Which is what makes Dario’s statements a lie:
And Robert’s recent (defamatory?) email disingenuous at best.
It also begs the question–if Puja wasn’t kicked off on International Woman’s Day because she’s a lady–and in light of MEF’s long history of apparent sexism in its panels and webinars which is OBVIOUS TO ANYONE WITH EYES— then why’d you kick her off guys?
And why’d you lie about it afterward?
