| Kavanaugh Accuser Comes Forward: ‘I Thought He Might Inadvertently Kill Me' |

| [DailyBeast] "It’s disturbing that these uncorroborated allegations from more than 35 years ago, during high school, would surface on the eve of a committee vote after Democrats sat on them since July," spokesman Taylor Foy said in a statement. "If Ranking Member Feinstein and other Committee Democrats took this claim seriously, they should have brought it to the full Committee’s attention much earlier." Democrats, though, want Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), the chairman of the committee, to postpone the vote until Ford’s allegations are investigated. "To railroad a vote now would be an insult to the women of America and the integrity of the Supreme Court," Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said in a statement. At least one Republican indicated a willingness to hear more from Ford before the judiciary committee votes on Thursday. "If Ms. Ford wishes to provide information to the committee, I would gladly listen to what she has to say and compare that against all other information we have received about Judge Kavanaugh," Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) Surprise! said in a statement. "If the committee is to hear from Ms. Ford it should be done immediately so the process can continue as scheduled." I seen 'dis movie before: No surprise here. A registered Democrat, College Professor in Palo Alto, Ca. Even her allegations don't even jive with her marriage Counselor 's notes of 2012 that stated she was allegedly sexually assaulted by four teenagers, not two as stated by the accuser in her letter . The FBI responded that the don't investigate sexual assaults and furthermore went on to state that a 37 year old allegation is way past the statute of Limitations for a Maryland DA to investigate and or prosecute. An obvious hitjob by Feinstein and the accuser. Same story - Gateway Pundit link |

| #10 Trump needs to hire PI's to tail EVERY white house reporter, then when he has press conference, have the folders right there. If they ask a question, he asks them stuff "So why were you buying drugs last tuesday?" |

| #9 We should hook them up to a machine, explain that it's an experimental lie detector and any lie results in electrocution. Now are they willing to stand by their accusation? |

| #8 “She admits she doesn’t remember key details like exactly when the incident occurred or where specifically, and she says the first time she told anyone about it was when she was in couples counseling with her husband in 2012 — 30-some years after the night in question.” |

| #6 I mean, everybody knows this is bullshit and Democrats wouldn't vote to confirm Kavanaugh anyway. So what we have here is some kind of flimsy cover for RINOs like Flake, Murkowski and Collins to vote no. If they vote no they need to be called on it and punished in any way legally possible by their fellow party members. No more excuses, it's time to get tough. |

| #5 is there really nothing what can be done? I propose Republican Party discipline. I was referred to a video some months ago (hat tip to Rantburg) about British parliamentary politics. There were a couple of party operatives, can't remember if they were Labor or Tory, talking about making sure that all members of the party vote the party line. They called it "putting a bit of stick about". Texas Senator John Cornyn is the current Republican Whip. He needs to get busy. |

| #3 We've seen this story a dozen times. Accusations are made just before the election or during conformation hearings. Once the candidate loses the election/not confirmed, the accusers disappear - is there really nothing what can be done? |
