text: Harvey Weinstein accuser Rose McGowan is facing arrest after airport police found traces of narcotics in belongings she left behind at Washington Dulles International Airport after she arrived on a flight from Los Angeles earlier this year. McGowan has accused Weinstein of raping her in 1997, and claims that one of the disgraced producer’s close associates offered her $1 million to remain silent about the assault. 
   
   “Are they trying to silence me?” McGowan tweeted earlier today about the warrant for her arrest. “What a load of horseshit.” 
   
   “Her personal belongings that were left behind from a flight arriving on Jan. 20 tested positive for narcotics,” said Rob Yingling, a spokesman for the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police Department. “Our police have attempted to contact Ms. McGowan so that she can appear in a Loudoun County Virginia court to respond to the charge.” The charge against her, he told Deadline, is a felony. 
   
   Airport police, he said, “have been issued a bench warrant and entered it into a national law enforcement database.” 
   
   “Refusing Weinstein’s hush money, Rose McGowan calls out Hollywood,” she later tweeted. And then, in response to recent allegations against Kevin Spacey – and other uncorroborated allegations against other prominent gay men in Hollywood – she tweeted: “Spacey Singer Spacey Singer Ancier Geffen good afternoon. How are you today?” 
   
   “We are an army of thorns,” she added.
target: – Rose McGowan has been among the most vocal in speaking up about Harvey Weinstein. Now she's raising her voice about some trouble she's in with the law, and she's amplifying her outspokenness with a sprinkling of profanity. "Are they trying to silence me? There is a warrant out for my arrest in Virginia. What a load of HORSES---," she tweeted Monday, referencing what a Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police Department spokesman tells Deadline is a felony charge against her. That charge apparently involves some of her personal items left behind at Dulles International Airport on Jan. 20 after she flew in from Los Angeles—items cops say contained traces of drugs. "Her personal belongings … tested positive for narcotics," says MWAA rep Rob Yingling. Yingling adds that airport cops have been given a bench warrant for McGowan and that it has been plugged into "a national law enforcement database." The AP notes the MWAA received the warrant on Feb. 1, and cops say they've been trying to touch base with McGowan since so they can get her to make an appearance in Loudon County, Va., to answer the charge. The Washington Post notes that while McGowan hasn't clarified who the "they" is in the alleged silencing attempt, others are piling onto the conspiracy, with one radio host calling it "shockingly transparent retaliation." When writer Ashlee Marie Preston suggested on Twitter that headlines about McGowan's arrest would never have emerged had McGowan taken the $1 million in hush money she alleges Weinstein offered her, the actress retweeted that comment with her own one-word response: "FACT."
