Official Brett Kavanaugh Thread, Part 4

[Anonymous]

The FBI didn't talk to anyone of the people who Ford said could corroborate her story, i.e. the people she told her story to before Kavanaugh was nominated. They didn't talk to the polygrapher. They didn't get her therapist's notes.

They didn't talk to any of the people who could corroborate Debbie Ramirez's story.

There's no corroboration because they affirmatively avoided trying to find any.

Ford legal team’s new letter to FBI Dir Wray - calls newest investigation a “stain on the process, on the FBI and on our American ideal of Justice.”

Collins and Murkowski will decide together how they’re going to vote, and will vote the same way to give each other cover.

So if he’s confirmed, let us never forget it will be because Collins and Murkowski threw women under the bus in multiple respects. They should no longer get to play the centrist-supporter-of-women card.

No, if Collins and Murkowski vote in favor of confirming, blame the idiotic Democrats on the JC who urged a FBI review which they knew or should have known would not provide corroboration in support of the allegations. It is the FBI review that they will rely on to support Kavanaugh.

Jeff. Flake. Not a Democrat.

Let's face it: the Democrats were out foxed by the Republicans and especially McConnell.

Hard to admit it but that is the truth.

I will donate against any and all of these swing votes who vote yes. Murkowski, collins, and the red state dems.

It was Flake's buddy Coons who persuaded him to go the FBI route.

It's not possible to conclude absolutely based on he said/she said, whether he assaulted her or not. The overall pattern she describes does fit with what we know about his high school years.

It's not about whether he assaulted her. It's about the fact that he lied or at least mislead the Senate Judiciary Committee UNDER OATH. He's a lawyer. He's a judge. He's a potential SCJ. He lied about being "Bart" (or at least mislead). He lied about the extent of his drinking. He lied about ralphing. And the Devil's Triangle. And boofing. Etc. Etc. Small lies matter. Please google "Kavanaugh lies" for a complete breakdown of his lies.

Do you really want a SCJ who lies, or at least prevaricates and obfuscates under oath, to the Senate???? Really, conservatives can't do any better than this guy?

+1. I watched him refuse to answer direct questions that were asked of him last week, and instead drone on about what how hard he worked, random memories from high school, etc. He did not come across as being honest during the process, and his behavior lowered my opinion of him greatly (I had not been following his nomination process closely before last week).

The take away from this episode is the following:

1. Any candidate was going to be the target of a Dem search and destroy politics to block 5th seat going conservative

2. The SJC process is "broken" - we could have come to the same conclusion about an uncorroborated allegation without the Dems dragging TWO families through the mud. The new Chairman of the SJC will reform the process

3. The Dems will take a hit because of #2 and for attempting to weaponize the MeToo platform - the ruse was exposed and it is offensive to all sides

4. Kavanugh will be confirmed with 1 or 2 moderate Dems based on his 20+ years on the bench and excellent peer rating

There are over 40 people who *should* have been interviewed, but weren't. And somehow there are people here who think that is acceptable.

You clearly don't understand what the FBI is tasked to do in these "investigations" (not just Kavanaugh's).

You realize the FBI wanted to interview all of these people and were barred from doing so, right?

And once these 40 people were interviewed, the Democrats would open the clown car door and 40 more would come out wanting to be interviewed too. Enough already.

Do you really think this is over for the Democrats? Nope. Wait for it.

Would need 70 Senators to remove, so not likely.

You have no moral high ground.

Merrick Garland is ancient history.

[Anonymous]

Fast forward two years. Dem house crawling all over the WH post-Mueller report; Trump facing strongest headwinds yet -- but facing a weak Dem contender after trouncing Flake in the primaries. GOP senate rushing judges to confirmation as it faces likely minority status in coming election. Kavanaugh swinging SC hard to the right, out of spite? Ginsburg 87 years old.
