Sen. Cotton: "The Schumer Political Operation" Was Behind Release Of Dr. Ford's Letter (t)
Real Clear Politcs ^

Posted on 10/11/2018 9:49:56 AM PDT by TigerClaws

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) told nationally-syndicated radio talk show host Hugh Hewitt on Tuesday that Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-New York) and his "political operation" was behind the leaking of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford "from the very beginning."

@@

SEN. TOM COTTON (R-ARKANSAS): Hugh, I believe the Schumer political operation was behind this from the very beginning. We learned last week that a woman named Monica McLean was Ms. Ford’s roommate, and she was one of the so-called beach friends who encouraged Ms. Ford to go to Dianne Feinstein and the partisan Democrats on the Judiciary Committee. Well, it just turns out, it just so happens that Monica McLean worked for a Preet Bharara, the former U.S. Attorney in Manhattan, now a virulent anti-Trump critic on television and former counsel to Chuck Schumer. So I strongly suspect that Chuck Schumer’s political operation knew about Ms. Ford’s allegations as far back as July and manipulated the process all along to include taking advantage of Ms. Ford’s confidences and directing her towards left-wing lawyers who apparently may have violated the D.C. code of legal ethics and perhaps may face their own investigation by the D.C. Bar.

HH: Now when we have a summing up of the consequences of this in four weeks at the polls, I don’t believe Americans are going to forget. I think they’re going to vote to make sure Mitch McConnell remains the leader in the Senate, and Kevin McCarthy the new speaker in the House. Do you agree with me that this lasts, that this left a mark on American politics?

Yup....that was my theory...based on "nothing happens without King Schumer's say so.

But he wanted it to stay a womens' issue cuz that's the best card they had.

No question.......Nanzi Pelosi also gave her rendition of how Democrats mount their smear operations
and "merchandise" them to a salivating media. All of them need to be called to account.

Everything that goes on to the left of the aisle on the Senate is a Schumer political operation.

....and there lies the problem.
No, I do NOT want the RATS in power and so I will vote R
But that does NOT mean I want the turtle as Senate leader.

It was only “leaked” so it looks like the dems weren’t 100% behind the whole thing. It only had to be “leaked” because the WaPo didn’t bite.

Yep. His plan, Feinstein ran it. No way did that dim bulb come up with this by herself, and I’m sure all the Dems on the committee signed off on it too. Collusion?

In NY politics ads are running with woman stating the whole communist adgenda better pay for women, pro-abortion, oh noes gonna reverse gay marriage, more.

Those ads, if I were unsure, would make me run to Conservatism. I hope others think the same.

I wonder if Ford is afraid she might accidentally slip out of her “little girl voice” and be recorded while using her “big girl” voice.

Excellent points!

She served her purpose.... plus it might get messy if people start digging.

Maybe the truth will come out or maybe we will find out that the Democrats were rotten and treated her like crap. All bad for the Democrats.

After analyzing the problems with the coming election, the Schumer cabal determined that the most good could be obtained by energising the largst coalition. The Democrat voters consist of multiple disparate groups. Women, gullible I want to make a difference women, is the largest

The Ford debacle is or was the implementation of that concept

The actual nomination was irrelevant. The unending 24/7 process was the objective that succeeded.

Schumer showed his true colors, years ago, when he stridently defended Janet Reno's operation in burning women & children alive at WACO, in the House Committee investigation of the rules of engagement in that atrocity. The man hates our way of life. I do not believe he was driven by anything in the Kavanaugh hearings, so much as by his personal animosity to Kavanaugh's very virtues, which so appeal to American Conservatives.

The Left demonstrated their hatred for all that is holy. For America's future, we must now make them pay.
