Christine Blasey Ford, accuser of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, agrees to Senate testimony about sexual assault claim

  • Christine Blasey Ford, a California professor at the center of a sexual assault accusation against U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, has agreed to testify to representatives of the Senate Judiciary Committee sometime next week.
  • The details have yet to be worked out, but it could mean the end of a lengthy and emotional political fight that has stalled Kavanaugh's nomination.

    Below is the full text of the letter Ford's legal team sent to Senate staffers: [From the bottom of the link]

    Dr. Ford accepts the Committee's request to provide her first-hand knowledge of Brett Kavanaugh's sexual misconduct next week. Although many aspects of the proposal you provided via email, on September 21, 2018, at 2:33 pm, are fundamentally inconsistent with the Committee's promise of a fair, impartial investigation into her allegations, and we are disappointed with the leaks and the bullying that have tainted the process, we are hopeful that we can reach agreement on details. Can we set up a time for later this afternoon to continue our negotiations?

    Sincerely,

    Debra S. Katz

I agree, if the Republicans allow this crazy woman with no evidence and few memories and no Witnesses to derail this nomination, the voters will be disgusted with the Republicans. The spineless traitorous Republicans.

We are sick of seeing the majority act as if they are in the minority and kowtowing to Blackmail and threats. The Republicans manage to lose their own elections. They don’t even need Democrat help.

The confidential background check has already been completed by the FBI, filed with the Senate Judiciary Committee and cannot be reopened simply because Dr. Ford’s complaint is public and would affect Judge Kavanaugh as if he was in jeopardy when he cannot be placed in jeopardy; for the FBI to do so would violate the laws of constitutionally guaranteed procedural due process in violation of the 5th and 14th amendments, illegally infringing the liberty of Judge Kavanaugh,

This is all about politics, baiting the Senate Judiciary Republicans and President Trump to make misstatements or to act in ways that will cause middle class suburban women to refuse to vote Republican in November. In short Dr. Ford is being used and abused by the Democrat Party. The Dems have no other way to win seats on November 6th.In fact this is entirely a Democrat created fake news event.The Dems are sorely desperate.And America is tired of having a bunch of democrat grifters trying to run our country.

I hope Hillary keeps on talking as she has been doing. American women are a lot smarter than Hillary would give them credit for. After all, just about everyone who is not a member of the democrat elite , in her porcine eyes are deplorables. And American will not soon forget, certainly not by the 6th of November.

Sooner or later, the law will catch up to Hillary too, even though she and her pussy whipping femino-nazi colleagues think themselves above the law.

Give them the lash Chuck Grassley! HOLD THE VOTE!

I don’t think Kavanaugh would ever have been desperate enough to sleep with bitter, slutty Ford.

The letter is not an acceptance letter because the request had implied terms that Ms Ford will not agree to.

The true translation of the legal weasel words that her lawyer used is: I WOULD agree to meet with the Senate committee, accept that I do not accept the terms of the Senate committee and therefor will not show up for a hearing on those terms.

Grassley should read the legal response of Ms Ford correctly, as a rejection of his request to her.

FYI.

A source close to the process who supports Kavanaugh told CNN, “This is not an ‘acceptance’ of anything at all. The email doesn’t even say she will testify. It says she will ‘provide her firsthand knowledge’ but it doesn’t say how. It says she will do so ‘next week’ but doesn’t say when. And it says the rest of the terms are still up for negotiation. It ‘accepts’ nothing at all, but the language is very carefully calculated to give her credit for having accepted.”

The accusatory statement by Ford’s two weaselly attorneys should be grounds for a Bar Association investigation.

When they said that “( re Ford) to provide her first hand knowledge of Brett Kavanaugh’s sexual misconduct”, they made an accusation into a “factual statement”, not proven by anything so far.

This is slanderous, defamatory, and possibly libelous.

Time for honest lawyers to file unprofessional conduct charges with the DC Bar Association and the American Bar Association, as well as the other national legal associations they are members of.

No judge would ever let this smear statement be allowed to stand in a court case, would have it expunged from the record, and would give both lawyers an stern warned about unprofessional conduct, or find them in contempt of court.

Swamp: Guess Who Set Up Andrew McCabe’s Legal Fund?
Katie Pavlich, April 6, 2018
townhall.com

….But it turns out, McCabe’s pay day wasn’t a result of a grassroots effort to defend him against false attacks. The GoFundMe page was set up by a Washington, D.C. lobbying firm connected to President Barack Obama. From Law & Crime (bolding is mine):
Melissa Schwartz is a crisis and communications consultant who currently works for The Bromwich Group.

She’s also McCabe’s present spokesperson.

The Bromwich Group is a K Street consulting and PR firm headed by Michael R. Bromwich. Immediately prior to founding the firm, Bromwich served as the first director of the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management under President Barack Obama....

I’m beyond frustrated with these cowardly Republicans!

If it weren’t for Trump, I would just quit voting altogether. Here, my rep is no better than a demo- although I ‘This I’m the governor and senator might be ok. For now, until they also stab us in the back.

They should have her testify via live videoconference.

No plane travel, and can be done quickly.

Good question.

How long ago did I’d she go to Hawaii?

Good point, which further erodes what credibility Ford has remaining.

Puhleeze...bring it on, already! I want to see this freaky skank get interrogated in public! There’s not enough valium in the world to get this horrible flake thru a real inquiry. Such drama! Such soap opera! What has our Senate become? A bunch of hairless, demasculinized eunuchs?
