Kavanaugh accuser says Feinstein's office recommended attorneys
Washington Examiner ^ | Sept 27, 2018

Christine Blasey Ford testified Thursday that Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s office recommended attorneys to represent her as she accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault.

Ford told the Senate Judiciary Committee that Feinstein’s office recommended the law firm Katz, Marshall & Banks, LLP, before she went public last week with her allegation of an early-’80s assault.

Two members of the firm Feinstein’s office recommended, Debra Katz and Lisa Banks, represented Ford when she came forward, and in early negotiations about Ford testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Just heard an attorney say it like it is.

"This is not a trial, it's an employment application".

Democrat Party shennigans.

They are sleazy plaintiff lawyers at heart. The types who say “Go see this chiropractor first. And then come back and retain me.”

I think we heard the “capper”. The three people that she said were there, submitted signed (under felony penalty) statements that they WERE NOT THERE. She is a liar and everyone knows it.

I thought early in the testimony she denied talking with politicians about getting a lawyer

She is a liar and everyone knows it.

**************

Lots of gaps and facts missing in her story. A competent attorney could have easily taken her house of cards apart. Even a first year law student could have done a better job.

DiFi has finally, at the age of 85, found a way to behave even slimier, more corrupt...than ever

I guess if you’re 85 and almost everyone despises you....
you don’t give a damn anymore

sort of like Janice Joplin put it,
“freedom is having nothing left to lose..”

DiFi, you’re DISGUSTING!

Katz...attorney recommended by Feinstein is working pro bono.

Either one or both of Ford’s attorneys or Diane Feinstein leaked the confidential letter by Ford to news organizations. Against Fords will. That is abuse.

Is it illegal for an elected official in their job capacity to reccomend a specific attorney?

That’s exactly what happened with Anita Hill. Go back to the C-SPAN archives of those hearings, and notice how much time Arlen Specter and Orrin Hatch spent on that particular part of her story.

McCain only made it to 81. Just think how he might have been at 85....

DiFi, you’re DISGUSTING!

As appropriate as "disgusting" is I think it's more fitting to say "DiFi, you’re AMORAL!"
