A friend of Christine Blasey Ford told FBI investigators that she felt pressured by Dr. Ford’s allies to revisit her initial statement that she knew nothing about an alleged sexual assault by a teenage Brett Kavanaugh, which she later updated to say that she believed but couldn’t corroborate Dr. Ford’s account, according to people familiar with the matter.
Leland Keyser, who Dr. Ford has said was present at the gathering where she was allegedly assaulted in the 1980s, told investigators that Monica McLean, a retired Federal Bureau of Investigation agent and a friend of Dr. Ford’s, had urged her to clarify her statement, the people said.

The correct phrase is “subornation of perjury”.
Leland Keyser, who Dr. Ford has said was present at the gathering where she was allegedly assaulted in the 1980s, told investigators that Monica McLean, a retired Federal Bureau of Investigation agent and a friend of Dr. Ford’s, had urged her to clarify her statement, the people said.
The statement to the FBI offers a glimpse into how Dr. Ford’s allies were working behind the scenes to lobby old classmates to bolster their versions of the alleged incident, as were Judge Kavanaugh’s.
Judge Kavanaugh, whose Supreme Court nomination will be debated in the Senate Friday, has denied the allegations of sexual misconduct.
On Thursday, a day after sending to the White House the report on its investigation into the allegations against Judge Kavanaugh, the FBI sent the White House and Senate an additional package of information that included text messages from Ms. McLean to Ms. Keyser, according to a person familiar with the matter.
Ms. McLean’s lawyer, David Laufman, said in a statement: “Any notion or claim that Ms. McLean pressured Leland Keyser to alter Ms. Keyser’s account of what she recalled concerning the alleged incident between Dr. Ford and Brett Kavanaugh is absolutely false.”
Ms. Keyser’s lawyer on Sept. 23 said in a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee that she had no recollection of attending a party with Judge Kavanaugh, whom she said she didn’t know. That same day, however, she told the Washington Post that she believed Dr. Ford. On Sept. 29, two days after Dr. Ford and the judge testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Ms. Keyser’s attorney sent a letter to the panel saying his client wasn’t refuting Dr. Ford’s account and that she believed it but couldn’t corroborate it.
Ok, sooo former FIB agent associated with Preet Bakhara of NYSD, was hosting Ms Ford at her place in Rehomoth, Delaware during July.
The picture that’s developing is that Monica and possibly other skilled agents helped this lady make up a plan. One of the first steps was to wipe clean Ms Ford’s presence on the internet, anywhere, a job that can only be done by professionals.
Another little factoid is Alyssa Milano is a godmother or some such thing to Twitter Jack’s kids. Some sort of close friendship.
Also, someone is making sure that zero audio recordings of Ms. Ford’s voice is found. She’s a teacher. I find that implausible. Which suggests again that when agents of the FBI come to call, people decide it’s not worth getting involved.
One of the BEST moments of Kavanaugh’s crossexamination was when Lindsey Graham asked him “Did you know that when you had your private 1 to 1 meeting with Dianne Feinstein that she had already talked to and recommended an attorney to Ms. Ford”? BK was taken aback because he did not know how deep the deception had been. Loved the way he said, “No I did not.”
Here’s my scenario, the FBI agent got ahold of mark judges novel. Ford was called to visit McLean and they put together this story. The fbi knew the real names of Brett’s friends from the fbi background checks. They thought keyser would back them up. Oh and Katz was in on it from the get go

The WSJ has had a paywall for years. Until the first part of 2018, you could get around it by Googling the article title and clicking on the found link. But that was shut down. I always hit their paywall and know of no way around it.
Google still works, you have to pick the correct link.
Or use archive is. Here's the whole article sans the paywall: http://archive.is/fot3M
B.S. Calling her up and suggesting she clarify her statement sure as hell is pressure.
others have posted the rest of the article, so no problem.
when will the FakeNewsMSM begin reporting on this?
Googling the url, not the title, works.
had urged her to clarify her statement

From: I wasn’t there
To: I wasn’t F@#$ing there.
With Judge using such cryptic pseudonyms as "Bart O' Kavanaugh", I doubt it was too hard to figure out...
The Justice Department should start an investigation and then appoint a Special Counsel to investigate all of the accusers. The Special Counsel can be named after the 2018 election.
I wasn’t ready to go that far, but the very fact the internet was wiped clean @July 8th, tells me this was the kind of op that has been run time and again by the Dems. I went back and watched Judge Thomas’ angry statement at his hearing. The same people probably orchestrated that shameful takedown. The culture hadn’t become as debased so they didn’t go so far as waving a penis at a party (as if Thomas behaved like a frat boy ever! He’s a very dignified man, made of stronger stock than BK who is the quintessential all-American boy, refreshing to see these days).
That sounds like they were trying to get Keyser to kind of change up or clarify her statements to give credibility to Ford.
I see there Fords attorney did not comment on the story.
Since she felt pressured by McLean, I think it might be Witness Tampering or worse. And McLean was a lawyer and an FBI agent, so she is aware that she committed a criminal act. I read that authorities do have the text exchanges.
Interesting...I’m zero for maybe 100 attempts this year.
Isn’t that called witness tampering
