Democrats demand Kavanaugh withdraw after third sexual misconduct allegation
MSN News ^ | September 26, 2018 | Adam Edelman

Senate Democrats on Wednesday demanded that President Donald Trump's Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, withdraw from consideration after a third woman came forward accusing him of sexual misconduct.

Moments after the allegations — which NBC News has not independently verified and were firmly denied by Kavanaugh — were made public, Democratic Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said in a statement that Kavanaugh should step aside. He also implored Republicans to "immediately suspend the proceedings related to" the judge's nomination.

"I strongly believe Judge Kavanaugh should withdraw from consideration. If he will not, at the very least, the hearing and vote should be postponed while the FBI investigates all of these allegations," Schumer said. In a letter to Trump, all 10 Democratic members of the Senate Judiciary Committee called for Kavanaugh's nomination to be withdrawn.

"The standard of character and fitness for a position on the nation's highest court must be higher than this. Judge Kavanaugh has staunchly declared his respect for women and issued blanket denials of any possible misconduct, but those declarations are in serious doubt," the lawmakers wrote.

The GOP needs to make an example out of ONE of these accusers. Defamation lawsuits, prison time for perjury..SOMETHING.

It’s long past due for this tactic to be stopped. They run the same game with every appointee.

There needs to be accountability for making false accusations.

I HEREBY WITHDRAW MY CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED

SEND THE US MARSHALS ***NOW*** TO ROUND THEM ALL UP, THE FBI TO INTERVIEW THEM UNDER OATH, HAVE THE APPROPRIATE US ATTORNEY INVESTIGATE THEIR STATEMENT, NOT FOR THE ALLEGATION PER SE BUT RATHER TO SEE IF THEY HAVE LIED TO THE FBI.

AND REPUBLICANS, YOU HAD DAMNED WELL BETTER ADOPT democRAT TACTICS FROM HERE ON OUT. WHERE IS THE DEMAND THAT ELLISON RESIGN?

“After the third skank the demoncrats have paid to smear kavanaugh, they demand he step down. “

(That would be the title if we lived in a sane world)

You would think there would be Demoncrats with a conscience that would say “My party has lost it’s friggin mind. I’m not going to be a member of a party that is capable of giving scum a bad name.”

That is damn generous of the democrats — allowing Kavanaugh to have two accusers but drawing the line at three.

Also, it is merely lagniappe that a withdrawal aligns with their stated wishes.

Jesus warned of great deceivers in the end times, and the Bible says “woe to them who call evil good, and good evil”.

The forces of evil we are witnessing are disgusting, vile, and straight from hell.

I renounce the devil and all his works.

May God Almighty uphold Judge Kavanaugh and his family during this attack by the devil.

The woman, Julie Swetnick, said that she was the victim of one of these gang rapes in approximately 1982.

Approximately 1982? One would think if something this serious really happened she'd know the exact, time, place, and the participants. And she'd have immediately filed a police report. But nope....none of the above.

She did not allege that Kavanaugh participated in the rape, but said he and his friend Mark Judge were present when it occurred, adding that she was incapacitated by a drug placed in her drink without her consent and was unable to fight off her attackers.

How convenient that she claims to clearly remember someone merely present at the alleged incident but not the actual participants themselves. What a bullshiter. I'd bet hard cash that if anything resembling gang sex did take place, it was a consensual orgy. ...and that Kavanaugh had nothing whatsoever to do with it. Or was even there.

I’m demanding all Democratic Senators resign. Just hearing their voices is rape to my ears. I demand FBI investigation into all of them going back 35 years and demand they account for every penny in their bank accounts.

I called it. I knew they would bring out a third woman and there will be more and more as long as the Republicans delay the vote.

Its all BS as these lying whores are bought and paid for to tell their BS lies.

Always do the opposite of what the dems want and you will be right every time. They are so evil that they cannot even find one nut that is not a person.

She also said she went to ten of these gang rape parties. TEN. This woman is clearly an insane slut. Syphilis spirochete are eating away at her brain. She also probably puts away a large bottle of Bombay Gin per day.
