DemonRATS panic~Full Scale Probe into Smearing Kavanaugh ready to explode

that quote was spoken by POTUS TODAY. moron.

I enjoyed how her panic exit door she told her therapist about was actually put in four years before her claim

Lol.....lying bitch

What difference does that make? Did they see a therapist specifically because of that door, or was it to discuss all the problems they needed to work through? Was there a time limit on what could be discussed?
 
you guys are retarded, no offense... go find a 8th grader to explain what's going on. :itsok:

She lied about the door? Please explain.
 
Polls show WRT hearing believability, it’s a wash. And, for Democrats, that is an absolute nightmare.

They connived like thieves.....had it all planned.

They’d lacerate Kav and Repubs ......and collect the votes at midterm.

Too fucking bad ...that aint happening.

Democrats set themselves up by screaming for an investigation. It just blew up in their faces as Sen. Graham says he’ll make sure there is a full-scale probe into Dems smear campaign efforts.

Senator Lindsey Graham has the Democrats in a virtual panic. Graham shredded Democrats during the Kavanaugh hearings saying they used to be his friends and that all they care about now is hurting Trump, stalling Kavanaugh’s confirmation and the 2020 election. But if they thought that was a one-off for Lindsey, they were sadly mistaken.

Graham is now calling for an investigation into the Senate Judiciary Committee’s management of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s allegations, accusing Democrats of handling her accusations so as to inflict maximum damage on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. He’s right of course. This was politically choreographed to the hilt.

Why Dr. Ford Must Provide Her Therapy Notes to the Senate
National Review ^

Last week, Senate Democrats turned upside down centuries of Anglo-American jurisprudence when they put the onus on Brett Kavanaugh to disprove Christine Blasey Ford’s sexual-assault charge. Compounding the injustice of this nonsensical approach was the Senate Judiciary Committee’s willingness to allow Ford to testify that in 2012 and 2013 she had told her therapist about the now-36-year-old alleged incident, even though her attorneys had refused to provide the senators with a copy of her patient file.

Prior to the start of Thursday’s hearing, committee chairman Charles Grassley had requested the notes; her attorneys had demurred, claiming it would invade Ford’s privacy. But the therapy notes are significant to the Senate’s assessment of Ford’s account, because the details Ford apparently provided to her therapist conflict with the story she told the Judiciary Committee.

In her opening statement, Ford told the senators that in the summer of 1982, when she was 15 years old, an intoxicated Kavanaugh locked her in a bedroom, groped her, and attempted to remove her clothing, while his friend Mark Judge laughed and encouraged him to “go for it.” But the Washington Post’s Emma Brown reviewed portions of the therapy notes (provided by Ford), and wrote in her story breaking the news of Ford’s allegation that they describe “a ‘rape attempt’ in her late teens.”

Fifteen does not translate into “late teens,” even under a generous reading of that phrase. Further, in her initial text to the Washington Post, Ford stated that Kavanaugh had attacked her in the mid 1980s, which would put Ford in her late teens and Kavanaugh in college.

Additionally, the Washington Post reported that the therapist’s notes state that four boys were involved in the attack. Ford claims that was a mistake made by her therapist and that while “there were four boys at the party,” only two — Judge and Kavanaugh — were in the room. The Washington Post further stressed that the notes “do not mention Kavanaugh’s name,” but do state that Ford “was attacked by students ‘from an elitist boys’ school’ who went on to become ‘highly respected and high-ranking members of society in Washington.’”

The disparity and vagueness raise significant questions that could best be answered by a thorough review of Ford’s therapy-session notes. And Ford’s testimony at Thursday’s hearing unwittingly highlighted this reality.

Early on during questioning by sex-crimes prosecutor Rachel Mitchell concerning the accuracy of the letter Ford had sent to Senator Dianne Feinstein, Ford incongruously raised the issue of Mark Judge’s employment at Safeway. Ford claimed that about six to eight weeks after the attack, she saw Judge once at the Potomac Village store, adding “it would be helpful with anyone’s resources if — to figure out when he worked there, if people are wanting more details from me about when the attack occurred. If we could find out when he worked there, then I could provide a more detailed timeline as to when the attack occurred.”

Ford would later raise the question of Judge’s job at Safeway an additional four times, and two Democratic senators would follow her lead and suggest that the FBI determine when Judge worked at the Safeway. Ford would also later add in the cross streets for the store location and a strange story about how she refused to enter the store through the same door as her mother — thus when she saw Judge, she was alone.

Why did Ford dwell on Judge’s job at Safeway? And how would knowing when Judge worked there help? It made no sense. Ford had already testified that the attack happened in the summer of 1982, and since she claimed she ran into him six to eight weeks later, at best this information could narrow down the time of the claimed assault only slightly.

What this talking point did achieve was to distract attention away from changes in Ford’s timeline. The media quickly picked up Judge’s book, Wasted: Tales of a Gen X Drunk, in which the former Kavanaugh classmate wrote that for three weeks during the summer before his senior year in high school, he worked at the local supermarket. The press saw this passage as corroborating Ford’s testimony that the attack occurred in the summer of 1982. And with that, the therapist’s notes went to the wayside, and the conflict between Ford’s original claim that the attack occurred in the mid 1980s, in her late teens, was ignored — at least in the press.

Ford’s focus on Safeway, however, did not distract the seasoned specialist, and Sunday night, in a report to the Senate, Mitchell stressed, among other things, the disparate stories concerning the timing of the attack and Ford’s age.

Yet the investigation continues, and some Republican senators and moderate Democrats seem undecided. For those gentlemen and gentlewomen, I have one suggestion: Request a full copy of Ford’s therapy reports, and if her attorneys refuse to provide the information (confidentially of course), refuse to consider any of Ford’s testimony.

"they put the onus on Brett Kavanaugh to disprove Christine Blasey Ford’s sexual-assault charge" :eusa_liar:



FALSE ^
 
Collins is getting a lot of heat, as she should...


Generally, we, like Collins, believe presidents have broad leeway in their appointments and initially we felt that Kavanaugh met this broad standard. No more.

Kavanaugh lied, under oath, about small things. He said he could legally drink during his senior year at Georgetown Prep, a Catholic all-boys school in Maryland. This is demonstrably false. He said he previously had no connection to Yale University, where he attended college and law school. Yet, his grandfather went there. His explanation for entries in his high school yearbook, which appear to be about drinking and denigrating women, stretched the bounds of credulity. If he’ll lie, under oath, about these things, he’ll lie about much bigger things. This is demonstrated by his earlier denials regarding his knowledge of documents taken from a Democratic Senate server in the 2000s during the judicial confirmation process in the George W. Bush administration. Or his denial of knowledge of sexually explicit emails frequently sent to a long list of recipients by Judge Alex Kozinski, who he called a mentor but who was forced to resign after allegation of sexual harrassment.

A telling visual representation of Kavanaugh’s evasiveness comes in the form of a chart created by Vox. It color codes the times, during Thursday’s hearing, that Ford and Kavanaugh did not answer questions. Light blue represents questions that were answered and deep pink shows when they were not. Ford’s chart is all blue. This doesn’t mean that all of her answers were always true, but she answered every question she was asked by senators and the Republicans’ hired female questioner.

Kavanaugh’s chart, on the other hand, is awash in pink. Evading questions or interrogating senators (about their drinking habits, in a couple instances) suggests a difficulty with honest answers.

Kavanaugh’s testimony last week also dispelled his notion that he’d be an impartial justice calling balls and strikes. He is extremely partisan. In his defense, he recited his conservative bona fides. He called the allegations against him “revenge on behalf of the Clintons” and he angrily warned Democrats that what “goes around comes around.”

He reminded senators that he has no concern for people outside his rarified social circle. This is reinforced by several of his rulings while on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, where he has sided with corporations (and even the government) over average Americans and he has stifled the rights of Americans with disabilities.

Kavanaugh’s confirmation process has been horribly mishandled. Republican leaders withheld thousands of documents and rushed the confirmation process, including scheduling a Judiciary Committee vote less than 24 hours after Thursday’s hearing concluded. Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein may have mishandled Ford’s letter about Kavanaugh and some other Democrats on the committee were more interested in grandstanding than having their questions answered. Those flaws, however, can’t obscure the fact that Kavanaugh doesn’t belong on the Supreme Court.

The American Bar Association, the “gold standard” of judicial review has walked back its support of Kavanaugh. A Catholic publication, The Jesuit Review, has withdrawn its endorsement.

Collins, who has spent hours listening to constituents and reviewing documents, is one of the few senators to put so much time and thoughtful deliberation into this momentous decision and one of an even smaller number of Republicans to push for further scrutiny of Kavanaugh and the claims against him. Like Collins, we believe strongly in the Senate’s advice and consent role, which gives presidents great latitude in their judicial nominations.

Kavanaugh fails this test. A no vote on his nomination is appropriate and necessary.

Kavanaugh is unfit for Supreme Court
We should get tired to trolling don't you think.
 
Polls show WRT hearing believability, it’s a wash. And, for Democrats, that is an absolute nightmare.

They connived like thieves.....had it all planned.

They’d lacerate Kav and Repubs ......and collect the votes at midterm.

Too fucking bad ...that aint happening.

Democrats set themselves up by screaming for an investigation. It just blew up in their faces as Sen. Graham says he’ll make sure there is a full-scale probe into Dems smear campaign efforts.

Senator Lindsey Graham has the Democrats in a virtual panic. Graham shredded Democrats during the Kavanaugh hearings saying they used to be his friends and that all they care about now is hurting Trump, stalling Kavanaugh’s confirmation and the 2020 election. But if they thought that was a one-off for Lindsey, they were sadly mistaken.

Graham is now calling for an investigation into the Senate Judiciary Committee’s management of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s allegations, accusing Democrats of handling her accusations so as to inflict maximum damage on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. He’s right of course. This was politically choreographed to the hilt.

And by 'ready to explode', you mean Lindsey Graham made an unfounded accusation against Feinstein, citing no evidence.

Alas, Purge......you have a rather obvious tell. The more far fetched your claim, the most over the top hyperbole and dramatic language you use to describe it.
 
today even dumbo donny is beginning to understand what is going on with BK! :eusa_clap:



Live updates: Brett Kavanaugh invesigation


"The FBI is working, they’re working very hard, and let’s see what happens."

He expressed optimism a vote on Kavanaugh could come by the end of the week, citing Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.

"Hopefully as Mitch said they’ll have a vote by the end of the week and it will be a positive vote," he said.

Kavanaugh, he said, is "fighting very hard for his reputation, for his family."

Speaking to reporters on the South Lawn, Trump also drew a line on lying to Congress.

"I don’t think you should lie to Congress and there are a lot of people over the past year who have lied to Congress," he said. "For me, that would not be acceptable."

He was talking about Ford, Feinstein, et. al.
 
^ he was talking about kavanawww and the rest of team tramp who have been caught lying by those awful FBI "leaks".

Eye witness testimony is evidence. Especially credible eye witness testimony like Christine Blasey Ford who testified under oath.

Who is the witness that Feinstein or anyone on her team leaked Blasey's letter?

That would be no one. Lindsey made it up, pulled sideways out of his ass.

And with that, the therapist’s notes went to the wayside, and the conflict between Ford’s original claim that the attack occurred in the mid 1980s, in her late teens, was ignored — at least in the press.

Ford’s focus on Safeway, however, did not distract the seasoned specialist, and Sunday night, in a report to the Senate, Mitchell stressed, among other things, the disparate stories concerning the timing of the attack and Ford’s age.

Yet the investigation continues, and some Republican senators and moderate Democrats seem undecided. For those gentlemen and gentlewomen, I have one suggestion: Request a full copy of Ford’s therapy reports, and if her attorneys refuse to provide the information (confidentially of course), refuse to consider any of Ford’s testimony.




"they put the onus on Brett Kavanaugh to disprove Christine Blasey Ford’s sexual-assault charge" :eusa_liar:



FALSE ^
Completely unnecessary since she has no proof, evidence or corroboration to even substantiate a charge.
You must be a Soviet.
