Wow! Serious allegation, guess he needs to step down. Unless, of course, he can prove it isn’t true.

“Another fairytale from Sen. Cotton, reminiscent of his trip to the White House when he lied about what the President said about immigrants from Africa,”

So, in other words, Schumer does not deny the charge, he only makes fun of it.

If the lawyer leaked it, wouldn’t that be something which could cause a lawyer to he disbarred?

That would, of course, make perfect sense.

Hide behind DiFi’s skirt as she’s 85 years old and likely to lose her primary anyhow. Implausible deniability.

Seems to confirm the suspicion that McLean was the letter-leaker.

I get the feeling she is behind the whole thing. She has the connections and the motive. When they were all clamoring to have the FBI do an investigation you have to wonder if they figured one of their moles could make up some good stuff against Kavanaugh.

Definitely need a special investigation with no limits. He is guilty until proven innocent using his own standards. Investigator until the cows come home

Chuck: Hehehe.

Was it Barzini or Tattaglia who approached Chuck?

She appears to be the operational coordinator of the plot, but there’s no way in hell she was the order-giver.

This goes back to Schumer and Clinton, and possibly also McCabe and Rosenstein.

“Leaking” the letter and Ford’s identity was the plan from day one. Why else would she have scrubbed her social media over the summer?!

The big question is.....will these neutered republicans take someone down or let them go free so they can do it again next time.

McLean was the mastermind. She was the one who knew how to phrase things just so. One and only one can of beer. So, Ford could not be said to have blacked out. But could be said to have been taken advantage of. No drivers, and no dates so people could not conclusively refute the allegations. No hard evidence given directly to the committee. Doctor’s notes, lie detector and original letter go only to friendly democrats and friendly press.

And whaddya know!

The FBI obtained text messages from MONICA McLEAN, Ford beach friend and former press agent of Schumer right-hand Preet Bharara, to LELAND KEYSER.

The texts asked Keyser to “clarify” away her statement that she never met Kavanaugh!https://t.co/o1bELmPsYH

McClrean was also almost certainly the letter writer. In fact, this whole fraud originated with McClean. Ford was just playing the role of victim.

“I believe the Schumer political operation was behind this from the very beginning,” Cotton told conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt in an interview Tuesday.

A spokesman for Schumer dismissed the charge as a “fairytale.”


I dunno. The charges seem very credible. Who to believe?

Dontcha just hate these “he said, he said” things. I think Schumer should step down, if only because of the appearance of impropriety.

:-)
