She's telling the truth.
Author: Raine    Date: 09/26/2018 12:59:05

She's not lying. She's not confused. She told people long before he was nominated. One person asked her about it earlier this year. These are sworn and signed declaration that are now with the Senate judiciary committee. One part, in particular, caught my attention.
In another declaration, Keith Koegler said Ford revealed the alleged assault to him in 2016, when the two parents were watching their children play in a public place and discussing the “light” sentencing of Stanford University student Brock Turner.

“Christine expressed anger at Mr. Turner’s lenient sentence, stating that she was particularly bothered by it because she was assaulted in high school by a man who was now a federal judge in Washington, D.C.,” Koegler said.

“Christine did not mention the assault to me again until June 29, 2018, two days after Justice Anthony Kennedy announced his resignation from the Supreme Court of the United States,” he said.

On that day, Koegler said Ford revealed to him in an email that the person who had assaulted her in high school was President Donald Trump’s “favorite for SCOTUS.”

In his response email, Koegler wrote, “I remember you telling me about him, but I don’t remember his name. Do you mind telling me so I can read about him?”

Ford’s emailed response: “Brett Kavanaugh.”


If Dr. Ford told her circle of people. surely the GOP knows as well. This is an abomination and a pox upon our country. They know she's telling the truth. They know what he's done.

and

As bad as Kavanaugh is, I sometimes think Mitch McConnell is worse (for different reasons, obviously).

He is the model of why Republicans prefer authoritarianism and hate actual Democracy.

Mornin' all...

There is absolutely no reason for Kavanaugh's confirmation process to continue without this being fully & thoroughly investigated. The man is obviously ill-intentioned and regardless of his credentials doesn't deserve such a position of responsibility.

He should be in jail.

Maryland does not have statutes of limitations. These allegations could not get any worse.

Seriously, I am sitting here wondering how many lives he's destroyed, literally and figurativly.

This has to end. The Senate Judiciary Committee is currently reviewing the documents.

I stand by my claim that they knew this all along.

I agree, think they did too. Partly why the rush to get him confirmed,

and this, I fear.
The Utah lawmaker Orrin Hatch, who sits on the Senate Judiciary Committee, filed a 44-page amicus brief earlier this month in Gamble v. United States, a case that will consider whether the dual-sovereignty doctrine should be put to rest. The 150-year-old exception to the Fifth Amendment’s double-jeopardy clause allows state and federal courts to prosecute the same person for the same criminal offense. According to the brief he filed on September 11, Hatch believes the doctrine should be overturned. “The extensive federalization of criminal law has rendered ineffective the federalist underpinnings of the dual sovereignty doctrine,” his brief reads. “And its persistence impairs full realization of the Double Jeopardy Clause’s liberty protections.”

It's all about enabling the criminal behavior of the Trump administration and then GOP enablers.
