Judge Brett Kavanaugh & Professor Christine Blasey Ford Testify

The Senate Judiciary Committee hears testimony from Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh and Professor Christine Blasey Ford about her allegations that Judge Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her while the two were teenagers.

[Pravious]

This circus should only have been allowed if the female had PROOF - positive EFFING PROOF - that some kind of “assault” took place.

Accusations without proof aren’t enough and should NEVER have been entertained. This is ALL Grassley’s fault, probably because he felt like being a “gentleman” because he’s 112 years old.

[INSERT SOUND OF GRINDING TEETH HERE]

[maggief]

“Uh oh. Whelan’s name just came up!”

Now we are getting somewhere. How many rounds are left?

[TonyM]

That presecutor lady reminds me of the first lawyer the boys had in the movie “My Cousin Vinney”. I keep waiting for her to start studdering.

[blueplum]

add: (just now) wants to describe all the other parties she went to in response to Mitchell’s question (but can’t remember the traumatic party). Went to other parties where Kavanaugh was present (but never made an issue with anyone present that his attendance made her uncomfortable and didn’t leave the parties).

[LeoWindhorse]

I do not believe her . She is lying because she hates Trump and is willing to do anything to defy the President his picks .

Harris = what a hater..... venomous

[Revel]

Dumb Dem telling Ford that she is not on trial. Yet Kavanough is on trial! There are consequences for him. What a bunch of crap.

[Openurmind]

Right on the money... I see it too. She has killed a few cells.

[supremedoctrine]

Exactly. Kavanaugh will not acquit himself well. AND he will NOT go “all Clarence Thomas” because 1. He himself , regardless of his previous statements, is probably not as sure he didn’t do what he is accused of as Blasey Ford is “100%” sure it was him, and 2.It is not in his character/personality to present himself like Thomas presented HIMself. Thomas made it impossible for them NOT to confirm him-—it was the quickest way they were offered to forget about having their motives and tactics thrown into question, and they took the opportunity.

[Williams]

It really helps the search for truth to have the democrats praise the witness as a hero. /s Kamala Harris just said the therapy notes corroborate (which Ford won’t let anyone see!).

[morphing libertarian]

get used to Booker and harris they are the democratic hopes for 2024 after Biden goes away

[Georgia Girl 2]

So now she is happy to discuss details about other parties she attended with Kavanagh but can’t remember much about the one where he assaulted her. Give me a break.

[sanjuanbob]

Exactly right...if K is credible today which we all expect, looking forward to a speedy vote and confirmation. She’s told her story but it doesn’t involve K...nothing new.

[mass55th]

"They are treating her like she’s a child."

She has the mind of a child.

[Fido969]

Kamilla slept her way to the top. She made sexual manipulation into a profession.

[CaptainK]

They are wowed in what way?

[tired&retired]

See her head bob as Harris is talking to her. She is highly suggestable.

That is a mark for selecting gullible people for stage hypnosis shows.

[Linda Frances]

I am a woman. I know a lying woman when I hear one.

———-

I agree completely.

[Brown Deer]
