The #MeToo Kavanaugh Ambush

Feinstein on Kavanaugh Accusation: ’I Can’t Say Everything is Truthful’

Senator Dianne Feinstein of California conceded Tuesday that she can’t attest to the veracity of Christine Blasey Ford’s allegation that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her when they were in high school.

“[Ford] is a woman that has been, I think, profoundly impacted. On this . . . I can’t say that everything is truthful. I don’t know,” Feinstein told reporters on Capitol Hill when asked if she believed the allegation.

Feinstein, the ranking Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, has been maligned by her Republican colleagues for failing to disclose the sexual-harassment accusation after initially being made aware of it via a letter from Ford in July.

Asked why she did not make her Judiciary Committee colleagues aware of the allegation at the beginning of Kavanaugh’s vetting process, Feinstein hesitated before citing Ford’s desire to remain anonymous.

“I don’t know; I’ll have to look back and see,” Feinstein told reporters before entering the Senate chamber, according to the New York Times. “The answer is that she asked that it be confidential,” she said upon exiting the chamber.

Judiciary Committee chairman Chuck Grassley has scheduled a public hearing for Monday and invited Kavanaugh and his accuser to testify. Kavanaugh has accepted the invitation while Ford has been unresponsive, despite her attorney’s previous statement that she would be willing to defend her allegation under oath.

Grassley indicated Thursday morning that he would cancel the hearing if Ford were to refuse to testify and a number of fellow Republicans, including Senator Jeff Flake of Arizona, have said they would support Kavanaugh’s confirmation if his accuser won’t testify.

Democratic leadership, meanwhile, has called for Grassley to delay the hearing pending an FBI investigation, despite the FBI’s insistence that the allegation doesn’t fall within its jurisdiction.

What a shock. The accuser says she will not testify until to the FBI investigate her claims.

Kavanaugh accuser says FBI should investigate before she testifies

The woman accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault says she will not testify until to the FBI investigate her claims.

A lawyer for Kavanaugh's accuser, Christine Blasey Ford, said Tuesday evening that she wanted the FBI to investigate as "the first step" in the process before Ford goes "on national television to relive this traumatic and harrowing incident," according to The New York Times.

Senators have been pushing for Ford and Kavanaugh to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee in a hearing next week.

Republicans announced Monday that Ford and Kavanaugh would have the opportunity to testify in a hearing next Monday, delaying Kavanaugh's confirmation hearing that was scheduled for this Thursday.

Ford's lawyer had previously said that she was generally willing to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee, as had Kavanaugh.

Ford alleges that Kavanaugh pinned her to a bed at a party in the early 1980s and attempted to remove her clothes. Kavanaugh has denied the allegations.

And she can just SUCK IT!!!

Where's George Soros' check?
 
DUMPHUK.

I think that there may be an effort by Kavanaugh to show up and at least respond to charges.

I tthink that would be a mistake. Not a major one and it is his call but if he kept i light and just said that he remains available to the process. It works in his favor to continue to appear eager to testify. But otherwise, it is not good to start responding to general comments where the specific charges have not been submitted or pursuant to allegations under oath.. It is not his job or any man's job to start jumping through hoops just because some broad's little plan to be a martyr went wrong.

Most likely Jeff Flake will have a dress and a pink pussy hat on by this time tomorrow.

Enough! Time for people to stand up right here, right now, and call bullshit for what it is. Vote, vote right fucking now, and tell the dems, leftists, and the media to fuck off. To do otherwise means we are willing to accept guilt and innocence to be determined by media and the twitter mob. Play time is over. This is a serious threat to our entire legal system and our society in general.

Perhaps Grassley should announce that since the accuser will not be attending the hearing on Monday it will be canceled and the swearing in ceremony for Brett Kavanaugh will be scheduled for that time period.

:cool:

Judge Kavanaugh is more than willing to appear at the hearing. Christine Blasey Ford on the other hand is demanding an FBI investigation before she appears before the Senate hearings. If there was something there, she would have called the police and the FBI like 30 years ago when it happened? Seems suddenly, she is having cold feet. Senator Susan Collins said attorneys from both sides should be allowed to question Judge Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford. She needs to be asked the hard questions and given every opportunity to hang herself on her lies!

This demand is how you know the accuser is being directed by the Democratic party in a calculated smear campaign to delay the nomination vote.

At this point the Senate panel should say "Show up Monday or shut your fool mouth".

“All I can say is that we’re bringing this to a close,” said Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.). “They’ve had tons of time to do this. This has been a drive-by shooting when it comes to Kavanaugh. . . . I’ll listen to the lady, but we’re going to bring this to a close.”
