Kavanaugh's accuser from 38 years ago goes public

[Kwon3]

great point

I did a google search on Franken allegations and couldn't find a damn thing other than Fox, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBS, PBS, Newsweek, Vox, Washington Post, USA Today, CNN.  Seems like the media just completely ignored it.

Franken denied most of the allegations which were things like putting his hand on a womans ass during a photo and and putting his hand on a womans waist during another photo shoot.  Pretty serious stuff

Of course Franken stepped down and as you've pointed out, the media is so unfair in not reporting on that.

Kavanaugh should absolutely follow Frankens example and withdraw his nomination

Was anything about those two men asked of Chelsea in the interview? No. Referring to past articles from weeks/months ago is a straw man. Damn it, you snookered me again, you trickster.

I expect him to if the FBI substantiates the claims the accuser(s) have made against him. After all, it's an investigation the Democrats demanded before a floor vote. If it does not corroborate the claims made against him, then he should be voted on and the result of the vote should stand, positive or negative.

Even mainstream news outlets aren't pulling punches with this psychopath as her story crumbles like a box of Mr Christie's cookies being shoveled in Schizzo's mouth.

Now the Left is melting since the report's completed, and their latest shock & awe gimmick is to claim the FBI doesn't know how to do its job since they didn't contact enough people to suit the liberals news networks' expectations. This is rich coming from the same network that hosted a primetime interview with discredited accuser Julie Swetnick, who even the FBI conceded couldn't be called on due to massive credibility gaps. These guys are truly shameless. This shit doesn't fly in the age of 24HR news and the Internet. As for attacking the very agency they had begged for an investigation from, it's a textbook case of them mashing the proverbial refresh screen button until the broken webpage they keep trying to connect to finally loads.

The Left is pulling out the big guns and trotting out the same tired celebrity acts to try to keep its sinking ship from capsizing, now that Senate hearings and the FBI investigation they demanded have failed to bring the desired results.

Whoopi Goldberg, John Legend, Lena Dunham and other celebrities are joining forces to protest Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh on Thursday.

Organizers say the main #CANCELKAVANAUGH Protest will be held outside the E. Barrett Prettyman Federal Courthouse a few blocks from the U.S. Capitol on Oct. 4 at 12:30 EDT.

In a final effort to stop Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation, the Women's March and other organizations have announced the Cancel Kavanaugh march, which will take place in Washington, D.C. on Oct. 4. Nationwide demonstrations are also scheduled for the next few days. 

Some reports say the FBI's investigation into the sexual assault allegations against Kavanaugh could wrap up sooner than the end of the week, which means the Senate might vote on his nomination by Friday. But don't panic because the fight is not over.

Liberal activists believe they have a shot at convincing Republican senators Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, and Jeff Flake of Arizona, along with Democratic senators Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota and Joe Manchin of West Virginia, to vote no on Kavanaugh's confirmation. Protestors and sexual assault survivors have confronted some of those senators to discuss their decisions, and Mitch McConnell, the Senate Majority Leader, said Republicans "will not be intimidated by these people."

Buenas noches, bitches. 

[Kwon3]

Thanks for sharing.

The exits to the G&O are clearly marked. Feel free to show yourself out anytime.

[Kwon3]

Alas, the verbal food fight is more fun for the kids.
I'll stick to the issues and some thoughtful interaction.

Great. You can start by leaving this thread to the people who actually have something meaningful to contribute and go back to the G&O, which is where you do your best work on here.  I'm asking as the author to do me a solid and not ruin it with your left-leaning rubbish.

[Kwon3]

That's exactly the response that I was expecting. No conservative poster seriously expects a liberal to act their age rather than their shoe size or compromise on anything. It's outside the scope of your maturity level and doesn't fit into the overall scheme of your narrow-minded posturing. Thanks for proving me right.

It's gotten too annoying (for me) to have meaningful political debate at this point.
That's life on any forum LOL. I leave the politics board with no hard feelings .
Thanks to all of you who tried to have some meaningful debate or posted funny stuff.

And I can't take anything the guy says seriously since his self-defeating, pseudo-populist, preachy 'racism' thread a couple of months ago. The sheer stupidity and ignorance of what he posted in that thread cost me a considerable number of brain cells I'll never get back. I suppose it was a matter of time before he'd waddle his worthless self into this forum and start corroding the decent threads with his leftist mumbo jumbo again.

Feinstein: This Was an 'Incomplete Investigation'

Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee have been briefed on the FBI investigation into Judge Brett Kavanaugh and have come to very different conclusions than Chairman Chuck Grassley. The Republican senator said the findings confirm that Kavanaugh's record is clean. However, "The most notable part of the report is what’s not in it," according to Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA). She sounded off with fellow Democrats on Capitol Hill Thursday after being briefed on the FBI report.

The FBI did not interview Kavanaugh or his accuser Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, Feinstein noted. That's not fair and a judiciary committee hearing "should not be a substitute" for an FBI interview.

Senators "lack the expertise" of FBI agents, Feinstein said. Furthermore, they were only given five minutes to interview the nominee.

The FBI investigation itself was "very limited" in scope - and that appeared to be the White House's fault.

The White House "blocked access to millions of documents from Kavanaugh’s record, Feinstein charged, as well as 90 percent of his emails. While Democrats agreed that the investigation should be somehwat limited, they did not say that the White House "should tie the FBI’s hands."

"Our fears have been realized," Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said after being briefed on the FBI report. "I disagree with Grassley that there was no hint of misconduct."

Schumer called for the documents, with proper redaction, be made public.

"Why shouldn't all of America see the facts?" he asked.

He too accused the White House of a cover up. The directive from White House Counsel Donald McGahn to the FBI shows the administration "greatly constrained the investigation from the get go."

Some undecided senators on Kavanaugh call FBI report 'reassuring' and 'thorough'
NBC "News" ^ | October 4, 2018 | by Rebecca Shabad and Frank Thorp
Posted on 10/4/2018, 1:00:10 PM by Oldeconomybuyer

Two key senators who have remained undecided on the Supreme Court nomination of Brett Kavanaugh on Thursday praised a new FBI report detailing the agency's latest background investigation — comments that seemed to suggest the odds of confirmation might be moving in his direction.

Their comments came as Senate Republicans on Thursday claimed that the FBI probe into sexual assault allegations against Kavanaugh had vindicated him by failing to uncover new evidence of wrongdoing, while Democrats blasted the speedy probe as "limited" and "incomplete."

Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said she was still absorbing the new report, but sounded satisfied with its scope, based on a GOP morning briefing. “It appears to be a very thorough investigation," she said, adding that she still planned to "go back to personally read the interviews.”

Retiring Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., another potential swing vote, left the same briefing saying he plans to go back and read more of the report, but said he saw “no additional corroborating information” to back up misconduct allegations, calling the report “reassuring.”

Democrats and attorneys for women who have accused Kavanaugh of misconduct have been critical of the depth of the investigation and of some of the limits the White House, which had initially dismissed the need for a new probe, had placed on it.

Top Democratic senators, meanwhile, expressed outrage Thursday that the FBI probe was limited in scope and incomplete.

This last-minute 7th investigation was a blessing in disguise for conservatives. You see, it exposed the left for its complete lack of honesty and integrity. They got everything they asked for and now they're still not satisfied, calling the FBI's scope and competence into question. It's like the patient who disagrees with his own doctor's diagnosis and wants to try five more hoping one will agree with their amateur opinion on what their problem is.

The American people get to see Chuck and Feinstein dissemble and obfuscate as they struggle to explain why the investigation they asked for failed to deliver the bombshell they were hoping for. Pretty weak stuff. A bunch of leftist women with no jobs and picket signs are protesting outside the Congress. America looks at them and laughs. A good man's name is being rebuilt by the hour and the fence-sitting Republicans are back in the saddle.

Trump = winning.

There is a single copy of the FBI's findings and supposedly the report is over 1,000 pages long. There are 109 people who have clearance to access what was delivered to Capitol Hill at 2:30 Thursday morning -- 100 senators, four majority committee staffers and four minority committee staffers, one committee clerk. It is currently in a vault, in a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility. It cannot leave the room. Senators can't bring their phones into the SCIF when they go to review the documents. If they take notes, the notes must be left in the room when the senator leaves. Senators are not allowed to discuss or characterize in detail what they've read (though they most certainly will try.)

Feinstein must be upset that she can't leak the report.

The investigation was full , fair and complete. The dems got the extra FBI investigation, etc.

To me , their were sufficient POLITICAL reasons to vote NO on Kavanaugh.
The republicans had enough balls to admit they supported his views on abortion, etc
Sadly, the dems lacked the political courage to vote NO based purely on POLITICS.
I'd vote NO, and would have the courage to stand behind my politics.

In simple terms, just say what you believe and VOTE that way.
Then have the balls to stand behind your politics.

In summary, I don't agree with the republican political view ( on this), but they stand behind their political beliefs.
The GOP behind Trump appear to have the senate votes and support to win this one.

I'm sorry to say that you're more mature and level-headed than the people who claim to represent you in the House and Senate. On this issue, anyway.

The republicans bent over backwards to accomodate the Left. The fact is no investigation was required. It was offered as an olive branch to the undecided moderates in the GOP who weren't sold based on testimony alone and come from states with liberal populations that pressured them to stall until the process was complete.

As for the Democrats, they decided not to vote the day Kavanaugh was nominated months ago. That's partisanship. Lindsey Graham voted for Sotomayor and Kagan, because he felt that was the right thing to do despite disagreeing with their left-wing views. The Dems have chosen to vote as a bloc and allow no dissent or votes outside party lines. Too bad. It'll hurt them next month. The American people don't want that kind of Congress.

KAVANAUGH IN STRIKING DISTANCE AS COLLINS, FLAKE PRAISE THOROUGHNESS OF FBI REPORT



Republican Sens. Susan Collins of Maine and Jeff Flake of Arizona appeared pleased with the FBI’s supplemental background investigation of sexual misconduct allegations levied against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, placing Kavanaugh in a stronger position for confirmation as compared to recent days.

Though neither lawmaker has committed to supporting Kavanaugh, they did not seem troubled with the scope of the inquiry or disturbed by its contents, while Democrats were unmoved in their opposition to the judge’s confirmation. Flake, Collins and GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska hold the decisive votes on the Kavanaugh nomination.

“It appears to be a very thorough investigation but I’m going back later to personally read the interviews,” Collins said.

Flake went somewhat further than Collins, and discussed the investigation’s findings in general terms.


“We’ve seen no additional corroborating information,” Flake told reporters.

A single copy of the report was delivered to the Senate in the small hours on Thursday. Lawmakers and a handful of senior aides are reviewing it in a secure room inside the Capitol called a SCIF.

Terms for Senate review of FBI background checks on judicial nominees was set by a 2009 “memo of understanding” between the Judiciary Committee and the White House. Per this memo, the report may not be photocopied, and must be returned to FBI custody within five days of final action on Kavanaugh’s nomination. Notes and memos deriving from the report must be destroyed in a timely manner. (RELATED: Kavanaugh Fight Leaves Supreme Court Shorthanded For New Term)

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California, the ranking Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, spoke in somewhat different registers about the report in a joint appearance Thursday. Feinstein did not speak to the substance of the investigation, instead decrying its unspecified omissions.
