I saw widdle pip-squeak Swalwell and laughed out loud.
Threatening a SC Justice is NOT a good move.
Yeh, right!!
Well you Muslim POS, why was it in reports she made a while back, just trying to manufacture evidence against you, I suppose.
Ellison makes my skin crawl.
Thanks, Rusty.
Thread unrolled for those who don’t twitter or are on i-phones.....
Thread by @KimStrassel:
1) More big breaking news, which further undercuts the Ford accusation, as well as media handling of it. A source has given me the email that WaPo reporter Emma Brown sent to Mark Judge, one person Ford claims was at the party. This email is dated Sunday, Sept. 16, 2018
2) The email wants a comment from him. The subsequent story would reveal Christine Ford’s name, and give details of the supposed “assault.”
3) One part of the email to Judge reads: “In addition to Brett Kavanaugh and Mark Judge, whom she called acquaintances she knew from past socializing, she recalls that her friend Leland (last name then was Ingham, now Keyser) was at the house and a friend of the boys named PJ.”
4) This matters for two big reasons—Ford’s credibility and WaPo’s. The subsequent WaPo story would go on to cite Ford’s name and details, and also list notes from a therapist that Ford told this to in 2012. Read carefully what WaPo reports, the same day it emails Judge:
5) “The notes say four boys were involved, a discrepancy Ford says was an error on the therapist’s part. Ford said there were four boys at the party but only two in the room.”
6) Wait, say what? WaPo reports publicly that Ford says it was “four boys,”even after WaPo reporter tells Judge that Ford had told her it was three boys and a girl.
7) So first, huge problem: This was just a week ago, and we have Ford giving two different accounts of who was present. Four boys. No, three boys, one girl. Either way, therapist notes from 2012 definitively say four boys, which Ford didn’t dispute. But now... a girl!
8) Other problem: WaPo’s reporting. Reporter has for a week had the names of those Ford listed as present. One is a woman. Yet it writes a story saying FOUR BOYS. Why? Maybe a mistake. But if so, why did WaPo never correct that narrative?
9) What, you can’t find Keyser? She has lived in the DC area a long time. The paper had no trouble tracking down the other two men (btw, who also denied such party). And why not publish Keyser’s name? It published the other men’s names.
10) In its most recent update tonight, WaPo writes: “Before her name became public, Ford told The Post she did not think Keyser would remember the party because nothing remarkable had happened there, as far as Keyser was aware.”
11) Wow. “Before her name became public, Ford told...” That is WaPo admitting that it had the name, and had Ford’s response to what would clearly be a Keyser denial, but NEVER PUT IT OUT THERE. Again, why? A lot of people have a lot questions to answer.
Thank you for posting!

This gif is hilarious
Blowsey/Ballsey Fraud has agreed to testify on Thur. at 10am as per FNC.
Still trying to get K to go 1st, ain’t going to fly, honey.
According to my breaking news Ford says she will testify Thursday. Isn’t that the deadline for voting him out of committee. Someone needs to get hold Of Grassley or MM
Might it be that they hear her testimony, hear his testimony and then VOTE! all on Thur?
China’s Catholic Church pledges loyalty to Party after Vatican deal
The Vatican on Saturday signed an agreement giving it a long-desired and decisive say in the appointment of bishops in China, though critics labeled it a sellout to the government.
China’s around 12 million Catholics have been split between an underground Church swearing loyalty to the Vatican and the state-supervised Catholic Patriotic Association.
The Catholic Church in China said it would “persevere to walk a path suited to a socialist society, under the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party.”

Wired Sources
@WiredSources
JUST IN: Sources say Democrats are increasingly concerned Dr Ford’s allegations won’t sound credible, after all four witnesses, including lifelong friend, debunk allegation
Open hearing, I guess that gives the democrats the opportunity for sound bites.
Pray that they are exposed for what they are trying to do No justification !
Concerned that her allegations won’t SOUND credible, image that!!
She has NO ONE ready willing and able to lie for her is what they are saying.

Truck drivers in dozens of cities across #Iran have launched a new wave of nationwide strikes.
They’re protesting:
-Low paychecks
-Skyrocketing prices for spare parts
-Authorities refusing to respond to their demands
I notice in this statement that they are fudging on the alleged witnesses that were supposedly at the party, claiming that committee refused to subpoena Judge when he sent a letter and the other 3 have denied knowing anything.
