Despite an online rumor to the contrary, a building permit from the city of Palo Alto does not contradict Christine Blasey Ford’s testimony regarding a second front door she had installed on her house.
As the Post reported on Tuesday (Sept. 25), a 2008 building permit for the 753-square-foot expansion on Ford’s L-shaped, Eichler-style home includes plans for a new door on the master bedroom.
The story mistakenly referred to the new bedroom door as a backdoor. Conservative pundit Paul Sperry tweeted about the second door on Thursday (Sept. 27), claiming the 2008 date of the permit “raises questions” about Ford’s testimony that the first time she told her husband that U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh had sexually assaulted her in high school was during a May 2012 conversation about their home remodel.
“BREAKING: Palo Alto bldg permit records raise questions about Ford’s testimony she completed an ‘extensive remodel’ of home in 2012 & that this was seminal event that led her down path to coming out against Kavanaugh b/c she needed to add an escape door. Permit was issued in 2008,” Sperry wrote in a tweet that was reposted 6,600 times.
Several conservative blogs have since posted about the 2008 building permit, citing Sperry’s tweet.

Does anyone have a rebuttal?
I thought the counseling session in 2012 caused her to remember this and then do a door.
It doesn’t support her story, the door was for renters and it’s ludicrous she put in a 2nd door 30 years later due to a high school incident. Use some common sense. She’s a manipulative liar.
It proves she is lying.
She claims those memories were repressed until drawned out by a therapist in 2012.
So ‘putting a second door to have an escape route due to the incident’ is pure BS. Since the building permit to do that work was pulled in 2008
She got the second door to become an illegal landlord, renting to Google and Stanford interns.
BTW, here 2200sq/ft home is worth over $3 million!
You can see the progression of landscaping to hide the main door behind some shrubs. The 2nd front door now appears to be the original front door but turns and goes into a 200-300 sq foot garage.
so they added a bedroom with a door for rental purposes in 2008 and that caused her to need marital counseling in 2012?
Irrelevant. If any records show the second door was for a) access to a separate apartment within the renovated house, b) for a home-based business, or c) for a “live-in couples counselor”, then her story about the second door being needed in case of assault is BS.
Ask your friend why she believes the few things Ballsey Ford can remember when there are so many things she cannot?
I am betting that the remodel & addition of 753 SQ FT at a permit value of just shy of $144,000 makes this ‘remodel’ cost at $191.00 Per Sq Ft.
She added a bathroom—added a bedroom-—remodeled the KITCHEN and some other work, apparently adding another front door.
I smell a rat-—This ‘remodel’ was to ADD a RENTAL UNIT into the house that had it’s own entrance. AGAINST Palo Alto zoning rules.
Palo Alto & many other Bay area cities have a chronic problem of housing & many people are trying to pull off this kind of ‘rental unit’.
Other records show that 8 different people used that address....p0erhaps living in that rental unit???
This story is needing a full review...
Palo Alto Planning & Licensing board needs to examine what actually got done there.
I don’t believe a word out of this crazy woman
So someone so traumatized by an experience in high school that she needed a second door to her house to feel safe, is completely unbothered with renting our her house and sharing her house with total strangers?
If the door in question has any glass, one will likely find the date of manufacture of the glass etched into the corner of the glazing. I’m betting the door was installed well before 2012.
Permit says she added 753 SQ FT. Turn a garage into rental living space, and you have about 1300 Sq Ft of rental. Easy to collect $1500 a month or more for that in that area.
she put in a 2nd door 30 years later due to a high school incident.
= = =
Well, is that ‘front door’ - ‘back door’ ?
I wondered when reading whether the property had a zoning waiver - if required - for using a residential property for professional/commercial purposes.
She got the second door to become an illegal landlord, renting to Google and Stanford interns.
*************************************************
She apparently also rented part of the house to professional psychologists as professional offices and/or residence.
Thank you, I have done that.
Didn't she claim that the door/s were in the LIVING ROOM ?
This Scum paper LIED about the date. She claimed she installed the door in 2012. Lying Leftist Paper “Fixed” the date.
