Kavanaugh was mistaken when he cited the legal drinking age 40 years ago. To a snowflake, that means he's a liar.
Snowflakes will be snowflakes. Each has its own finger print but they're essentially the same. They fall and then they melt.
WASHINGTON ― Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) said Sunday that if Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh lied under oath, his nomination is over.
“Oh, yes,” Flake
told CBS News’ Scott Pelley.
Well, Senator? Do we have some news for you! Kavanaugh lied throughout his confirmation hearing. He told big lies and easily disprovable small lies. This may not even be the first time he has lied under oath: former Sen. Russ Feingold (D-Wis.) said
Kavanaugh lied to him in his 2006 confirmation hearing for his current seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.
So, Sen. Flake, we now present to you all the lies Kavanaugh told in last week’s hearing — at least all the ones we can prove.
(A Flake spokeswoman did not respond to a request for comment.)
Christine Blasey Ford’s allegations are ‘refuted’
A key point made by Kavanaugh throughout his defense was that Christine Blasey Ford’s allegations were “refuted” by three contemporaries alleged to have been at the party where she said he sexually assaulted her. Those alleged attendees said, under penalty of perjury, that the event did not take place, Kavanaugh argued.
“Dr. Ford’s allegation is not merely uncorroborated, it is refuted by the very people she says were there, including by a longtime friend of hers,” Kavanaugh said.
“The evidence is not corroborated at the time,” he said at another time. “The witnesses who were there say that it didn’t happen.”
But none of the alleged party attendees ― Mark Judge, Leland Keyser and P.J. Smyth ― ever refuted anything Blasey claimed. They simply said they
could not recall attending such a get-together.
“I have no memory of this alleged incident,” Judge said.
“I have no knowledge of the party in question; nor do I have any knowledge of the allegations of improper conduct,” Smyth said.
Keyser said that she has “no recollection of ever being at a party or gathering where [Kavanaugh] was present, with, or without Dr. Ford.” She added that while she can’t remember the event from 36 years ago, she believes Blasey’s allegations. She
reiterated this after Kavanaugh’s misleading testimony.
Blasey explained that there was no reason for them to remember the party. “It was not one of their more notorious parties because nothing remarkable happened to them that evening,” she said.
‘Never attended a gathering’ like the one described by Blasey
“I never attended a gathering like the one Dr. Ford describes in her allegation,” Kavanaugh said.
But
according to Kavanaugh’s calendars from the summer of 1982, which he submitted as evidence in his defense, he did.
As he said himself, “The calendars show a few weekday gatherings at friends’ houses after a workout or just to meet up and have some beers.” He says that he never attended a gathering like this, but that’s obviously false because the type of gathering he said he did attend is exactly the kind she described.
“None of those gatherings included the group of people that Dr. Ford has identified,” he also said.
On July 1, Kavanaugh wrote that he planned to go “to Timmy’s for skis w/Judge, Tom, PJ, Bernie, Squi.” “Skis” are “brewskis,” a popular slang term for canned or bottled beer in the early 1980s.
So he gathered for brewskis with two of the three people Blasey said she remembers being there. Small gathering? Beer? Judge, Brett and P.J.? Check, check and check.
