MORNING JOE: Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) discusses NYT reporting on Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein as well as the latest details involving misconduct allegations against President Trump's Supreme Court pick Brett Kavanaugh.

SENATOR BLUMENTHAL (D-CT): We're talking about a lifetime appointment to the nation's highest court that will make a real difference in real people's lives for generations, literally generations to come with this appointment. And so we have a constitutional duty to get to the bottom of these allegations. They are serious, and credible, and now the person with the most knowledge about them, namely Judge Brett Kavanaugh has a responsibility to come forward with evidence to rebut them. They have control over whether to have an investigation...

NOAH ROTHMAN, COMMENTARY MAGAZINE: Senator, your colleague, Senator Mazie Hirono over the weekend was asked whether the presumption of innocence was due to Brett Kavanaugh. She replied by saying, 'I take his entire philosophy,' essentially saying his judicial philosophy also formed her opinion about whether or not these events occurred as alleged by these two accusers....

So I guess we just throw out that whole presumption of innocence thing eh Senator? Great, then I have a few charges I’d like to tag you with. Now go spend thousands of your own dollars proving your innocence.

Innocent til proven guilty is our system. Maybe Blumenthal should move to some totalitarian hellhole where people must ‘prove their innocence’.

Also those calling for an ‘FBI’ investigation have two motives - one to buy more time - and two to bring in their thugs.

Yeah, maybe the slut Lisa Page can come back and team up with some of Peter Strzok’s friends to ‘investigate’ Kavanaugh. HERE’S WHAT WE REALLY NEED - A SPECIAL COUNCIL ASSIGNED TO DIG INTO FBI CORRUPTION.

Blumenthal is a child raper. I don’t have any evidence to back up that charge. Apparently evidence is something not required anymore.

Blumenthol is a disgusting piece of human debris. Goes to the mindset of the majority electorate in CT. to elect him. H e lied about serving in Viet Nam to enhance his political profile.

The charges are neither credible nor serious: No witness backs up any of the claims and the charges consist of “drunken attempt at 2nd base” and “getting flashed at a frat party”.
Both these women have every reason to lie (they are dems) and will suffer no consequences if they are caught lying. In fact they will probably be celebrated for it.

One very important question here is; are the American voters paying attention?

The three witnesses and himself say it didn't happen. There is no evidence to suggest otherwise. Because it's a he said, she said....this is all about not just what she says...but corroboration.As it stands, ALL witnesses that she put forth have said "It didn't happen".

She'll be a no show.
