| Kavanaugh Accuser's Lawyer Sets Stage For Withdrawal From Testifying |
| 2018-09-26 |
[Pirates Cove] There’s a notion in politics that the process is the punishment. Such as the Russia Russia Russia probe, for which there has been zero evidence of actual collusion, just unrelated process crimes. In this case, Kavanaugh was accused of being mean 36 years ago or so, since Dr. Ford is rather short on details, the Democrats immediately jump in....well, immediately being when Diane Feinstein mentions the letter at a conveniently political time almost two months after receiving it....with "we believe her!!!" and the compliant media followed right along with the allegations, attempting to slur Kavanaugh’s name. Kavanaugh himself said he wants the process to be fair, rather than guilt by accusation (Democrats should remember the old saying about what comes around goes around)A lawyer for Christina Blasey Ford‐the woman accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault‐raised concerns on Monday about the setup for a public hearing where Ford will testify later this week. This is a cute reasoning that is a stage setter for her pulling out of testifying on Thursday, which would be on the record. At this point, she is the only one who hasn’t given a sworn statement, either written or oral. The burden of evidence lies with Dr. Ford. |

| #39 A headline in the MSM you will never see: "Kavanaugh Gang-raped by Democrats." |

| #38 If kavanaugh fails the vote and Ted Cruz loses in Texas Trump should put up Cruz next, see if the rules of Senators passing one of their own is a rule that still applies or not. |

| #36 It's not perjury with all the ifs and buts and feelz But it is, of course, proof beyond a reasonable doubt apparently... |

| #35 Every one of the wymyns claim "to the best of my knowledge", and acknowledge some vagueness of memory. It's not perjury with all the ifs and buts and feelz |

| #34 Perjury means jail time? For republicans and conservatives it does, but not for Democrats and their minions. Just look at Valerie Plame and Libby. One skated and was a Demo Hero, the other did prison time. |

| #31 Wouldn't perjury mean jail time? |

| #30 On NPR just now: Ms. Swetnick has a job that requires a security clearance. So if it becomes clear she has perjured herself, she could lose her job. |

| #29 TW, IMO, that thought - let alone the idea that somebody will ask, never occurred to her. After all, they live in a world where accusations of this type are never questioned. |

| #28 I have a firm recollection of seeing boys lined up outside rooms at many of these parties More than one? Why the hell was she going to party after party if she knew what awaited there?! |

| #27 Well, Iblis, FBI doesn't take orders from Republicans: POTUS or congressmen; nowadays. |

| #26 Here's a question. The moment Ford was identified, why wasn't the FBI sent out to take her statement? That's exactly what she asked for, an FBI investigation, which always starts by taking a statement from the witness. Plus, lying to the FBI is a crime. Seems to me this all could have ended even before it started. |

| #25 The allegations have cost Kavenaugh a lot (18%) of support among Republican women. But how many male votes support for Kavanaugh is worth? How many men out there thinking to themselves "If they can derail somebody like Kavanaugh with such attacks, what chance will my kid have if some co-ed bitch in his college decides to screw with him?"? |

| #24 The allegations have cost Kavenaugh a lot (18%) of support among Republican women. Republican Senators will have a hard time winning re-election without their support, so I expect they will try to avoid having to vote to confirm Kavenaugh. Similar position with the conservative base if they vote to deny. Logical response is to defer action. |

| #23 I have been told that Maryland has no statute of limitations for sex crimes, and I'd think gang rape is one. So has this been brought to the attention of Maryland police? If those gang rapes happened so often at parties there should be plenty of witnesses. Just why would the third accuser do this. Perjury would land her in jail for quite a while, she'd lose her job, and if this is not a case for a defamation lawsuit, I don't know what is. Again, this is crazy. |

| #22 Here's the thing, if they had brought all this forward immediately, I'd say sure, investigate for a bit. The way they did it though, no. It screams hoax, just like all the nooses, KKK stuff that turns out to be done by blacks, or muslims burning down their own mosques...Not buying it. Just like 'found' ballot boxes, this behavior should start an immediate and complete probing of the people bringing it forward. |

| #21 Maybe he won't delay the confirmation process but speed it up. This is simply too much. |

| #20 #9 Avenatti has released sworn testimony of his client. And not a single person involved said anything to anyone during 6 FBI investigations. |

| #19 Ms. Swetnick said she attended more than 10 house parties in the Washington area between 1981 and 1983 with Judge Kavanaugh and Mr. Judge, where she watched them “drink excessively and engage in highly inappropriate conduct, including being overly aggressive with girls” and grabbing them “without their consent.” She's two years older than him, was in college, but repeatedly attending parties with spiked drinks and rape trains, but didn't tell the cops or anyone else? Teh Crazee is strong with this liar |

| #18 There's no way in hell she comes up with Mark Judge's name without Ford first mentioning that name, if she's unable to remember any one else's names. More bullshit. |

| #17 Ya know, even Avenetti wants to postpone the confirmation until yada yada yada. No one has asked he not be confirmed, disbarred, or drawn and quartered for such disreputable behavior. Obviously, the accusers know none of this will stand the test of time, and delay is all they want. |

| #16 I agree. He must have drugged the girl to watch this. |
| Posted by: European Conservative 2018-09-26 14:18 |
| #15 on the other hand, Brett Kavanaugh did apparently take a girl named Suzanne to Grease 2 in 1982 (he called it Grease II in his calendar notes to disguise this awful display of bad judgement). It also seems he asked her out 8 days before the movie which implies he must have coerced her because no girl, on her own volition would have willingly seen such a bomb |

| #13 America has gone crazy. |

| #12 Not just absurd, she has called herself a drunken hussy; she could be the most interesting witness since Rachel Jeantel. Bet this gal is crazier than eggs on a billiard table. |
| Posted by: swksvolFF 2018-09-26 13:24 |
| #11 Ms. Swetnick said she observed the future Supreme Court nominee at parties where women were verbally abused, inappropriately touched and “gang raped.” So she went so SEVERAL parties where she saw women getting "gang raped" and she didn't report this to police? Absurd |

| #10 Avenatti, huh? There's a trusted name. /sarc |

| #9 Avenatti has released sworn testimony of his client. "I also witnessed efforts by Mark Judge, Brett Kavanaugh and others to cause girls to become inebriated and disoriented so they could then be "gang raped" in a side room or bedroom by a "train" of numerous boys. I have a firm recollection of seeing boys lined up outside rooms at many of these parties waiting for their turn" with a girl inside the room. These boys included Mark Judge and Brett Kavanaugh. In approximately 1982, I became the victim of one of these "gang" or "train" rapes where Mark Judge and Brett Kavanaugh were present. Shortly after the incident, I shared what had transpired with at least two other people. During the incident, I was incapacitated without my consent and unable to fight off the boys raping me. I believe I was drugged using Quaaludes or something similar placed in what I was drinking. " "approximately 1982". |

| #8 The attorneys in the Ford and Deborah Ramirez debacle ought to be considered for disbarment. The Dems who created this shit show should also suffer some punishment. Civil suits should be brought for defamation. |

| #4 Yeah, those are just people repeating her testimony. |
| Posted by: Rob Crawford 2018-09-26 08:12 |
| #3 She's now sending what I think are non-oath 'statements' by her hubby and some friends she told in 2013....which if I was a judge, I'd burn in the court saying "Yeah, people you told 30+ years later don't count compared to every person you named as there saying it never happened." |
