Brett Kavanaugh Senate Kabuki Theater

Ford probably has been in DC since last week with all her handlers digging for anyone that can substantiate her claims and being peppered and prepped for the shit show next (Show will not happen unless she performs well in her prep and they find someone as a surprised witness).
 
This is rich: even the NY Times: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/22/us/politics/kavanaugh-senate-blasey-ford-testify.html

So the article writers concede (bolds/underlines mine):

A woman named Leland Keyser — who is believed to have been identified by Dr. Blasey as one of the five people at the party — told the committee through a lawyer that she “does not know Mr. Kavanaugh and she has no recollection of ever being at a party or gathering where he was present, with, or without, Dr. Ford.” Two men said to have been at the party, Mark Judge and Patrick Smyth, have also told the committee that they have no recollection of the events.

But the writers are so pathetic, that they continue:

Still, even without corroboration, any testimony by Dr. Blasey would set up a potentially explosive showdown, and it could greatly complicate matters for Judge Kavanaugh, who just last week — before Dr. Blasey came forward with her account of the assault — seemed destined for confirmation to the Supreme Court.
Actually, I find that last half accurate. It creates complications, even if unfounded. The Dems are all in on this one. They don't have a choice. Ford has become the single focal point for the Dems last chance to change the political direction of the country, the Dems credibility going forward and the image and credibility of the MeToo movement. No pressure there. All the chips are in now. But, if they win this battle, it might start a war.
 
I would guess the Democrats do not want Ford to testify. A nebulous "sexual assault" claim allows people to fill in their own fevered and imagined details, but actual testimony would probably sound too much like teenaged necking that everyone is familiar with. Ford would also not score any points with repeated memory lapses. And it would be a lot more favorable to the Democrats to claim that Ford could not testify because the Judiciary Committee would not treat her "fairly."
 
Yes. I suspect continued delaying tactics. Testimony and fact finding is going to dredge up a lot of dirt. Saw one unconfirmed report that the school was a non-stop party school. Saw another report that Booker wrote about groping a girl in school. Again, not confirmed.
 
Drudge Says Ronan Farrow and Jane Mayer Set to Break Report on Kavanaugh: ‘Another Woman?’

On Sunday, the Drudge Report ran this blaring headline at the top of their page: “Another Woman?”

The “another woman” appears to refer to a potential — yet still unconfirmed — second Kavanaugh accuser.

According to the all red Drudge report, insiders claim Ronan Farrow and Jane Mayer are set to report on a late twist in [Supreme Court nominee] Brett Kavanaugh‘s confirmation that involves a new woman and a “dildo.”

The site further adds the woman is “Never Trump” and her best friend will say that the woman never told her.

Drudge Report does not specify who the insiders may be for their scoop, which according to their page is still a “developing” story. The site likewise provides no links or other information to further back up their claims.

However, according to New York Magazine’s Yashar Ali, “this has been brewing all day with several rumors going around about a potential story.

In addition, Ali writes: “Two White House sources have confirmed to me that they are aware of a potential story.”

Now the left has found a Hispanic girl named Rameriez that claims he showed his junk to her in college. There is no one to corroborate the story and she like Ford never told anyone else. This smear stuff is getting ridiculous. Now that Ford is being heard from Ramirez will have to be also. This will either 1) cause Trump to pull Kavannaugh or 2) delay it further 3) cause them to go ahead and vote and likely flake and Collins will be no votes.

It looks like Dems may have found a third woman to levy an accusation. Coincidentally she is being represented by Stormy Daniels lawyer....WTF!?! o_O

  • Avenatti says client has 'information regarding Kavanaugh and Mark Judge'
  • Judge is alleged to have witnesses Kavanaugh's encounter with Christine Ford
  • The attorney said he will be 'demanding' that subpoenas be sent out
  • He also called for the Supreme Court nomination to be withdrawn
  • Avenatti did not expand the nature of the allegations against Kavanaugh
  • His announcement came just before the New Yorker published new revelations

Not sure the Repubs in the Senate have the stones to do what must be done. The Dems will just keep manufacturing crap on Kavanaugh or anyone Trump puts up. They just gotta say F you, he's confirmed.
I am going to bet they will pull his nomination
 
If this second woman comes forward, I think he's done. I'm most concerned about getting the next one lined up and confirmed ASAP before the new Senate seats. Otherwise, we'll be looking at a USSC comprised of 8 until 2020. The dems are playing a version of the game played by the repubs with Garland.

2020 becomes my next fear - potentially Dems controlling both houses of Congress, president, USSC (assuming this nomination process tanks). Imagine that, but don't think on it too long. You'll have nightmares.

Okay, fine. Dems want to take the smear game to a new level?
Pull Kavanaugh and send him back to current post.
Nominate Amy Coney Barrett.
Pass her in Judiciary with no hearings... She just went through all that.
Pass her in the Senate.
Done.

ETA: Start the extreme vetting process for Mike Lee and put him on deck for the next appointment.

The republicans need to go on on offense but we know they don’t have the cojones to do that.
 
Here's the thing - the Democrats sink the nomination, they proclaim #metoo wins and energize their base for the Midterms.

They fail and the confirmation goes through, it's proof of a Republican war on women, they energize their base for the Midterms.

I'm not even confident Kennedy didn't resign expressely for this purpose, as the powers that be haven't really hidden their intentions with regards to Trump.

Either way this this plays out, it helps them win seats in November. And that's all this is.

So if the GOP is worth anything, they should be keenly aware this may be their only shot.

Yeah pull Kavannaugh....even thought I personally think he is innocent and would be great...that gives the Dems s a win...then nominate Amy and send her on to a vote on 11/7...that would fix the issue of the Dems “winning”

Well, but since when the goal of GOPs is to pacify democrats' base? I always thought that GOPs must energize THEIR OWN base. Losing Kavannaugh nomination in such shameful manner, demonstrating complete inability to stand against wave of shit fabricated by Dems, is more than strange way to keep GOPs base energized.

When in the last 20 years has the GOP done anything beyond lip service to energize their base?

Once given power, did they even vote to repeal Obamacare when they could actually a accomplish it?

Remove suppressors from the NFA?

Pass a fiscally conservative budget?

No, buythey sure did talk about it a lot to get you off the couch and to the polls for them.

I have to agree with this. I am really looking forward to being "energized" by my side a bit...this being on the defensive stuff sucks.
 
For what my $0.02 is worth, I believe the nomination will be withdrawn. At this point, it's just too much chatter surrounding him.

I, for one, am the most pissed I think I have ever been at the liberals.

I agree with you and I am having thoughts we won’t see Trump get to fill this seat.

If they do they will lose their base. Right now there is zero corroborating evidence, or anything is his record to suggest he is even capable of these things. If the R's won't fight baseless accusations from over 30 years ago they are useless to their constituents. The Dems can just trot out made up crap anytime they want. I for one and about one straw from never voting Republican again. I'd rather go done swinging than surrender every issue.

I towards the Republicans. The liberals are fighting for their cause. What are the Repubs doing?

A snake is going to do snake shit. That's how I feel about the Dems. They need to be defeated and their Marxist ideas need to go away. The Repubs look like Quislings and traitors to me.

I agree 100%...that’s why I think they will pull him or vote no on him. I think he will be and should be great on SCOTUS. I just don’t have the bar set high for the republicans to do the right thing

I think the republicans on the committee will get cold feet, afraid of what will happen to their re-election chances if they push him through. And the democrats will do the exact same thing to the next nominee.
 
Another big question is what does Trump do? He nominated this guy, and they both had to know how the Dems roll. Trump really needs to fight for his guy, or why would anyone trust him going forward?

Declassify all the FBI and justice Dept docs TODAY.

Write an EO that starts te process of the military building the wall.

Order the FBI to investigate all these femal accusers, and prosecute for anything you can regarding flase staements and bringing fales charges.

Yes, declassify the DoJ docs.

Yes, call the wall a matter of national security (because it is), and move money in the DoD budget to build it via EO.

I would say, "these fabricated stories and lies will not use one dollar of FBI money when they have bigger fish to fry; if the complainants want justice, they need to take it up in civil court."
 
I'll probably be on another "list" as I just called and sent emails to Tillis and Burr. I was not cordial, not mean either... I just don't understand why a Republican held House AND Senate can't do what the voters put them in office to do: Repeal ACA, build the wall and now secure a Constitutionalist to the S.C.
 
Waiting for CNN to report that Dr. Blasey’s SUV was hit by the Lettuce Express
while crossing the tracks on her way to DC.
 
My best case scenario ... let Kavanaugh pull his own name that way the Dems get only a little win and the spineless Reps er to save a little face. Then Trump puts up Amy Barrett immediately and the Reps take her to the Judicial Committee ASAFP. It might be harder to find sexual assault charges against her but knowing the Dems they’ll find someone who she forced to do something but it will be even farther fetched than Kavanaugh having “rape gangs”.
 


Good. Let the absurdity increase! BTW, it seems most of the morning TV shows were none too kind to The New Yorker this morning. Apparently, they got grilled pretty good on a story the NY Times passed on already because of lack of evidence. The NY Times!!! And keep in mind, "Rape gang" lawyer is also Stormy Daniels's slime ball lawyer.
