Why We Shouldn’t Expect Christine Ford to Show up at Any Hearing
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon

Posted on 09/23/2018 5:23:28 AM PDT by EyesOfTX

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)

What more do we really need to know here? – In case you’re still thinking that the tale being told by Ms. Christine Ford has any credibility to it all, take note of this actual reality about the case:

Senator Hatch Office ✔ @senorrinhatch These official letters from the 4 named by Dr Ford—denying any knowledge of what Dr Ford has alleged— serve the same purpose as sworn testimony.

We remain hopeful we’ll hear sworn testimony from the 5th, Dr. Ford herselfhttps://twitter.com/shannonbream/status/1043676938487955456?s=21 …

Shannon Bream ✔ @ShannonBream Committee source says they’ve contacted five people alleged to be at party. 4 deny any knowledge of the party and allegations. 5th person - Dr. Ford - is the only one who has not provided them a statement. #Kavanaugh

9:06 PM - Sep 22, 2018 8,694 6,362 people are talking about this Twitter Ads info and privacy

So, Ms. Ford has claimed that there were five people at the party, and named the other four by name. Each and every one of those four people has now written letters to the Senate Judiciary Committee denying any knowledge of the “party” in question.

Now, add that to Ms. Ford’s own claims that a) she was drunk as a skunk, b) she doesn’t know where the party was held, c) she doesn’t know the date of the party, d) she doesn’t know how she got to the party, and e) she doesn’t know how she got home, and the inescapable conclusion anyone with the ability to think in a rational manner can reach is that there was no party and she is probably lying. There really is no other reasonable way to look at this.

Perhaps then it is completely and, like, totally fitting that lead attorney for the pathological liar Andrew McCabe announced on Saturday that he has joined the gigantic, amazingly expensive legal team for which someone is paying on Ms. Ford’s behalf. (Gosh, isn’t it odd that no one at the New York Times or CNN is working to find out who that might be? Why it’s almost as if the fake news media is afraid of what they might find.)

That’s right: Mike Bromwich has now joined the growing list of high-dollar leftist activist lawyers representing Ms. Ford in this matter. It is quite interesting that Ms. Ford feels the need to bring in a high-powered criminal defense lawyer to help protect her here. Man, it’s just really hard to see why that might be the c…oh, wait. Nevermind.

Also, note the last sentence in the tweet above by Shannon Bream: “5th person – Dr. Ford – is the only one who has not provided them a statement.” It is also key to note that despicable Senator Dianne Feinstein, who received the letter from Ms. Ford that started all of this back in July, still has not been willing to provide an unredacted copy of the letter to the full committee.

What do these two facts tell us? They tell us that, despite the ongoing delay-tactic machinations by her crack, huge, expensive legal team, Ms. Ford probably has no intention at all of showing up to testify. Think about it: Would you? She is telling a story that, even if it happened, was 36 years ago. She is the only person telling this story, which has huge, suspicious gaps in it. She has zero supporting evidence of any kind and even people who describe themselves as “lifelong friends” of Ms. Ford do not support her story in any way.

While Chuck Grassley and Mitch McConnell continue to go along with her lawyers’ stalling tactics under the pretense that she is making a “credible claim” that must be heard, under no circumstances are they going to allow her to testify without being under oath and penalty of perjury. Oh, and by the way, any written statement she provides the committee – most likely including the unredacted letter – would also be provided under potential penalties of perjury.

See where this is going? See why Bromwich, the high-dollar lawyer for the guy who got fired from the FBI for serial perjury, just joined the legal team?

Ms. Ford is nothing but a potential witness to a confirmation process. Nothing more. Dozens of other witnesses have testified during this particular confirmation process, and not one of them felt the need to retain a high-powered criminal defense lawyer or an array of high-dollar attorneys that rival the legal team hired by O.J. Simpson.

Really and truly, what else do we need to know about this case?

While her team of expensive lawyers will no doubt continue their stalling tactics with Grassley and McConnell, at the end of the day you should not expect their client to ever actually show up to testify. Because the retention of Bromwich shows she is very, very concerned about what might follow if she does.

That is all.

One part of Ford’s stalling strategy is easy to figure out. Her lawyers need to give time for damaging information to come out so they can manage it (i.e., damage control). They want to know as much as possible about what’s out there that could further destroy their client’s credibility.

In other words, her lawyers are buying time to deal with unknown facts that could call her character and truthfulness into question. So with each passing day they become more confident nothing derogatory will suddenly pop up on them.

Its a form of spin control.

No, it wasn't the “high tech lynching” that saved Thomas (Who had no recommendation from the committee), it was 11 blue dog dem Senators. 1 from Arizona, 9 from southern conservative States, and 1 moderate from Illinois when that State had more sanity. Jeffords and Packwood were the only Repubs who did not vote Yea. This was about other issues, not “guilt” from the lynching comment.

I have said repeatedly she will never show. Grassley is just playing out the clock. Sometime next week Kavanagh will be confirmed.

So, no one recalls anything that Ford claims. Why does she need lawyers?

There are rumors Kavanaugh is preparing to bring a defamation suit.

Blasey-Ford’s supporters worked to scrub social media entries or have them taken
down from various social media outlets (the very same outlets that ban conservatives)
.

The social media entries describe:
wild drunken romps with boys,
binge drinking blackouts,
birthday parties attended by underage girls with male strippers
the benefits of passing out drunk to avoid guilt and shame of alleged sexual activity.

There is a passage dedicated to artful descriptions of a “Sweet 16” birthday party for one of Blasey-Ford's Holton Arms classmate,
complete with a male stripper wearing a gold G-string, dancing enticingly to the delight of the underage attendees.

A Holton Arms yearbook page showed underage students dressed provocatively as Playboy bunnies.

All of this-----sanctioned and approved by the Holton Arms upper echelon.

=======================================

Her social media posts approvingly identified Blasey-Ford as a liberal activist with an obvious sensitivity to Supreme Court ideology;
she once posted on an accommodating social media site, "Scalia-types must be banned from law!"

Just ducky----an alcoholic slut in therapy, with a vagina on steroids, telling we, the people, who to have on the USSC.

The “prep school” culture is going to be on trial when this hearing occurs.

***Why We Shouldn’t Expect Christine Ford to Show up at Any Hearing***

...because she is accomplishing exactly what needs to be accomplished: delay, delay delay (as long as Grassley continues to give in to her). If the Dems win the Senate in the midterms, Prof. Ford will finally plead a headache... not tonight, dears...

The gop is too stupid not be screaming that everywhere .

You are making assumption that the GOP wants to win this fight. IMO, that assumption is wrong.
Should Kavanaugh not be confirmed, the GOP will not see it as their defeat, but as President Trump's defeat....and nothing pleases the GOP more than thwarting President Trump!
Remember, even though they sold him the "R" brand, they neither wanted nor expected him to win.

I have checked 60 Minutes website and have seen nothing about her being on. Has this been verified? Would they not be advertising the Hell out of this if she were going to be on?

Please advise.

I have my doubts .

The Gop would even allow these crazies to deny
Brent K his Due Process Rights is unreal .

Mitch and Grassley should have shut down the request with outrage and disgust.

“I believe their new plan is to get her there, but they are bringing in bus loads of paid freaks to disrupt so that the whole thing will be canceled and no vote will be taken.”

They can just clear the gallery and proceed without an audience.
