In reply to Kavanaugh is a Blatant Liar

Was watching Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell earlier this week, first time I've done so. O'Donnell said if you want to know what Brett Kavanaugh looks like when he's lying, just look at the video of the very first words out of his mouth at his initial post-nomination presser.

Brett Kavanaugh: "No president has ever consulted more widely or talked to more people from more backgrounds to seek input for a Supreme Court nomination." https://twitter.com/axios/status/1016490932324175874

(apologies if this was already shared at dag a while back)

In reply to Kavanaugh is a Blatant Liar

If you were hiring someone and allegations of sexual abuse came up, you would have to investigate. The Senate needs to let the FBI look into the allegations. There is no reason to trust that Senate staffers would be unbiased.

Edit to add:

Democrats on the. Judiciary Committee think Kavanaugh should step down

Julie Swetnick, alleges in a sworn declaration that in 1981 to 1983 she attended house parties with Kavanaugh and Mark Judge, Kavanaugh’s accused accomplice in the alleged attack of Christine Blasey Ford in the early 1980s.

Swetnick paints a picture of heavy alcohol consumption and non-consensual sexual activity at the parties, alleging that Kavanaugh drank heavily and acted aggressively towards women present, both in word and action. She claimed that male party attendees participated in “gang rapes,” where they would, in turns, violate a woman who had been incapacitated with spiked drinks. Swetnick said that she herself was a victim of this specific crime, and that Judge and Kavanaugh were “present” when the alleged attack took place.

Stand by your man... what's she gonna do, stay home baking cookies?

And let me guess - she's pretty goddamn disappointed about thise sexual activities. I don't think the ability of women to soldier on is infinite.

Arty... Ah yes...

Arty... Ah yes...

What he immediately saw in the Fox News interview: that she's probably far more disappointed that he's lying than problems about sexual activity:

In reply to Justice delayed is justice

Here's a BINGO for me. It's the integrity stupids, not the youthful assault or not as the case may be:

Not sure if this should be getting the "both sides" treatment. It's pretty obvious that Kavanaugh lied about (or at least severely underplayed to the point of dishonesty) his drinking/partying habits in the Fox News interview. https://t.co/ZF0caB6Wae

This is an extended job interview. Big fail already, you lied one way or another. Supreme Court justices do not pander to a constituency nor even with intent to keep a marriage intact. (To be honest: presidents and other electeds can, precisely because they are elected and do not serve a lifetime, the people get to judge their spin and lies.)

As to the wife, artist Richard Prince, as much as I dislike much of his body of work, I've got to admit it probably has given him expertise at reading facial expressions. What he immediately saw in the Fox News interview: that she's probably far more disappointed that he's lying than problems about sexual activity:

Justice delayed is justice

In reply to Still boggles the mind, the

Justice delayed is justice denied. Mr. Funnyman won't let the reaper walk him out of this one, even if 1 week. Better he's blind, a metaphor for these women drugged, incapacitated, sometimes somewhat aware but scared and unable to move. Got a joke for them now, Bill? Flash that wicked endearing smile.

Left out Dennis Hastert, Jordan (or who he was covering for), so many others. Entrusted with the young. Though if it's a boy a few decades back, we're aghast. A girl? Oh she grew up, got used to it, and men/boys have those hormones raging to think of... can't ruin their lives/career.

With Hastert however, or w Asia Argento, this blackmail thing can't be rewarded either. W Trump's victims and all these Hollywood cases, the offered hush up money. Other victims held it over their (suspected?) abuser's head. Who's the RNC guy Broidy who paid out $1million+ for an abortion, or abuse, or was it to cover for Trump instead? A rather huge racket. And to think the ones the FBI goes after are the Cisneros and Edwards cases, taking care of an affair, not a rape. Guess they're the easy ones. And yeah, some of Trump's fit this case). Should it have counted as a campaign contribution? Kinda yes, kinda no...
