The problem is not Ford but those who exploited her to try and bring down Kavanaugh. It is utterly shameful.


The more I hear the more I believe her.


From Susan Collin's speech on why she is voting "yes":

Mr. President, I listened carefully to Christine Blasey Ford’s testimony before the Judiciary Committee. I found her testimony to be sincere, painful, and compelling. I believe that she is a survivor of a sexual assault and that this trauma has upended her life.

Nevertheless, the four witnesses she named could not corroborate any of the events of that evening gathering where she says the assault occurred. None of the individuals Prof. Ford says were at the party has any recollection at all of that night. Judge Kavanaugh forcefully denied the allegations under penalty of perjury. Mark Judge denied under penalty of felony that he had witnessed an assault. P.J. Smith, another person allegedly at the party, denied that he was there under penalty of felony. Professor Ford’s lifelong friend, Leland Kaiser, indicated that under penalty of felony she does not remember that party. And Ms. Kaiser went further. She indicated that not only does she not remember a night like that, but also that she does not even know Brett Kavanaugh.

In addition to the lack of corroborating evidence we also learn facts that have raised more questions. For instance, since these allegations have become public, Prof. Ford testified that not a single person has contacted her to say I was at the party that night.

Furthermore the professor testified that although she does not remember how she got home that evening, she knew that because of the distance she would have needed a ride. Yet, not a single person has come forward to say that they were the ones who drove her home or were in the car with her that night.

And Prof. Ford also indicated that even though she left that small gathering of six or so people abruptly, and without saying goodbye, and distraught, none of them called her the next day or ever to ask why she left. “Is she okay?” Not even her closest friend, Ms. Kaiser.


Honestly, I can't take Collins seriously. I mean, she voted for the tax scam bill only because McConnell and Pence gave her an “ironclad” commitment to pass legislation by the end of last year to stabilize ObamaCare premiums. She wanted that assurance before committing her vote for tax reform. She got the assurrance. And stabilizing ObamaCare premiums didn't happen.

It's the "fool me once" principle. Shame on her. She's either naive or she really has no moral center.

Ask the SJC. They have this information. Interestingly enough, none of the Dems have raised questions about it.

(But keep trying to throw everything out there in hopes that SOMETHING will stick)

Congratulations GOP - you've gone full authoritarian.


The situation is horrendous. And you know who is personally responsible? Brett Kavanaugh. He is a cockroach.


As we know, when you see one roach, there's a hundred more close behind.

Don't forget Don McGahn, Mitch McConnell, Chuck Grassley, and Mark Davis. Dems MUST take control of the Congress so a real investigation of this obstruction can happen. The rule of law must be allowed to prevail.

His representation of Swetnick did not help matters at all: accusations of gang rape without any corroboration does not help and it detracted from the credible testimony of Ford.


She didn't accuse gang rape. Read again.


She did and then backtracked; she claimed that Kav and Judge spiked the punch bowl and then said she did not see them do it but they were hanging around the bowl. She detracted from Ford's testimony because it was just outlandish.

Avenatti is in it for himself - he was no help to blocking Kav.


From her sworn statement: "also witnessed efforts by Mark Judge, Brett Kavanaugh and others to cause girls to become inebriated and disoriented so they could be gang raped in a bedroom or a side room by a train of numerous boys. I have a firm recollection of seeing boys line up outside rooms at many of these parties waiting for their “turn” with a girl inside a room. These boys included Mark Judge and Brett Kavanaugh.”

Yeah, I would say she accused him of gang rape.


No, she is saying she saw him in situations where a reasonable person would think he did do things like that. But she is not saying she saw him do it.


Way to spin that PP geezus


Says the person who agrees that Trumpy's "pussy grabbing" comments were "taken out of context."

That is like saying "I saw him at a bank that was robbed in the past, and since banks get robbed and he's got money he must be a bank robber." Good think you are not in charge of the Justice Dept.

Is it any wonder the Democrats lose every time?


Dems lose because of inequality in representation.


? What does this mean? Seriously, what is it you're trying to say?


DP...I am guessing the PP is referring to the fact that a vote for a senator is 6x in Whyoming the vote for a Senator in California, or the fact that Senators representing 44% of the population are voting for a SCOTUS nominee who i opposed by 61% of the electorate. Or the fact that the dems in the House received on aggregate 53% of the vote but have 47% of the seats. No matter how you slice it, even before gerrymandering and voter supression, there is a structural imbalance.

No, it isn't. This is the FBI would normally investigate this stuff. White house hand cuffed them. FBI would not have arrested him for rape, but they would have interviewed ALL the witnesses and weighed their stories, also they would have interviewed the many witnesses who have come forward to say he drank a huge amount and was frequently drunk to the point of incoherence, and acted belligerently and aggressively when drunk. They would have weighed it all.

The committee republicans were all about covering for their slimeball. They didn't care what he had done, but they had to prevent a legit investigation because they knew his behavior in the past would not have held up to any kind of scrutiny.

By the way, now that the GOP is going full conspiracy theory, falsely suggesting that this whole mess was funded by George Soros, we have seen senators, Rudy Giuliani and even Trump cite this dog whistle of the anti-semites among us.

So now, Jewish Centers are being tagged with swastikas. Brilliant.

America, 2018.

The Democrat got outplayed and don't realize it. They need new leadership. Get rid of all those relics like Schumer and Pelosi.

Is it any wonder they have been sliding down since 2008?

No, just pointing out that because the blue states have attracted more people with their policies and have a much greater share of the GDP, the country has evolved in a way that there is a political structural imbalance between the population and the representation.

She accused BK of being at parties where he gave girls Solo cups of punch.

Initially she said he was a participant. Later, she recanted and said she saw him by the punch bowl.

Here is one thing I don’t understand- why is the MAGA crowd always in a perpetual state of anger even after they win. Trump gets elected, they stayed angry. They hold all levers of power in dc, still angry. They win tax vote, still angry. They win Kavanaugh, still angry.
