*BREAKING* KAVANAUGH REVEALED TO BE FIENDISH SEX PUTZ (PART 3)

Brett Kavanaugh’s Dildo Diaries.

So does Ronan have more accusers?

It’s kind of brilliant to drop this right before a new news cycle begins tomorrow. Avenatti always delivers on his TV statements.

This story is crazy. I can't wait for the eventual movie.

What happened to the stories about Kavanaugh getting other people to pay his gambling debts?

Kavanaugh seems like the kind of guy to keep a separate social calendar for his sexual assaults.

When I google, the links to this story all go to right-wing sites, no doubt because Drudge is the original source. But it's presumably what Avenatti tweeted obliquely about. We can expect a story from Ronan and Meyer tomorrow about another woman who claims that Kavanaugh assaulted her with a dildo, or something like that. I hope it's an event from his more recent past, like while he's been a judge (one of his "model gorgeous" clerks?) or, even better, while he was formulating salacious questions for Bill Clinton during the Ken Starr nonsense.

Listen to me, speculating recklessly here!

The story is out tomorrow not tonight?

R7, Zika Bash probably held the female victim down for him, Serena Joy style.

R8 No one knows when it will drop...just that it is coming in the real near future

Avenatti on Twitter tonight: “I do not bluff. I deliver. #Basta”

Time for Avenatti to put up or shut up.

So....who was Number 2 on the GOP's list of nominees? Time to start checking them out.

A new twist? I had hopes that Ronan & Jane had gone underground to get a fuller story. They dropped information very early on about this. So much has happened since then I almost wondered if I imagined it. And then they seemingly disappeared.

I hope this is why.

Amy Coney Barrett was one of Trump's three finalists for the SC. She'd be a nice replacement choice as a sop to women and because she's unlikely to have sexually assaulted anyone in her youth or since. The third one was Raymond Kethledge, a University of Michigan BA and JD.

If it has Ronan's name on it, it will be a solid report. It's a good thing he's got a track record of excellence that he can point to. It'll be all that much harder to poke holes in his research.

Is Kavanaugh finished?

R17 Depends on what he did with the dildo

What's the name of that high-ranking lawyer who quit his job and just joined Ford's team? Maybe this is part of the reason why he agreed to ditch his job. It doesn't seem likely that he'd do that just for the sake of a 1 day hearing.

Okay, Avenatti just put out info that he's got a credible witness on Kavanaugh and Judge - but it doesn't sound like what Ronan is going to present.

So does that mean there are now THREE woman instead of just Ford?

@MichaelAvenatti I represent a woman with credible information regarding Judge Kavanaugh and Mark Judge. We will be demanding the opportunity to present testimony to the committee and will likewise be demanding that Judge and others be subpoenaed to testify. The nomination must be withdrawn. 7:33 PM · Sep 23, 2018

This is getting good!

Kavanaugh's chances of being a SCOTUS justice are falling by the minute. Soon his chances of retaining his seat on the DC Circuit Court of Appeals will be in jeopardy. He should have had Trump withdraw his SCOTUS nomination while he still had a chance to maintain his reputation. Couldn't happen to a more deserving partisan hack.

Oy. Avenatti. I don't think GOP will be too keen on him adding a parade of accusers for Thursday hearing.

The pieces of shit who call themselves Repig Senators will not stall the proceedings. It’s so criminal and yet they get away with it.

So... I’m a bit confused. Is it only Drudge saying that Ronan is working a story on Kavanaugh?

No R26, Yashar Ali and others have as well.

Thanks, R28... just got back from a short trip and trying to catch up! I think Kavanaugh just should step aside. If he’s that upstanding why would he put his family through this? Oh yeah... cause HE’S NOT.

The Senate will refuse Avenatti. Then he will call and press conference and put it all out there.

Sidenote, I like Yashar Ali. He always has seemed good to follow on Twitter

It's live

[quote][R17] Depends on what he did with the dildo

Is that a disqualifying offense now? Cuz...

Spoiler: No dildo

Tune into MSNBC now! Ronan Farrow story is being revealed right now!!!!

Another allegation of sexual misconduct against Kavanaugh, this time from a woman who knew him in college.

Yale classmate says he was drunk at a dormitory party, exposed himself, shoved hiw penis in his face, forcing her to swat it away . She is asking FBI to invesitage her charges. 1983-84

Not another attempted rape but he apparently exposed himself to this young woman.

Damn.

Who is it that says "Everything Trump Touches Dies"? Cause that basically is now summing up Kavanaugh.

It's in the New Yorker. Democrats are investigation this new allegation of sexual misconduct against Kavanaugh.

I don't know if this is connected to the Avenatti thing.

I hope Kavenaugh winds up having to apply for a job at a donut shop.

I mean "Democrats are investigating..." in my post above.

R39- Wouldn't Avenatti and Ronan be working on two different stories?

So there's even MORE coming. I wonder if that Thursday hearing is still on??

Kavanaugh is flatly denying new allegation (Liar!)

Kaci is saying that Republicans KNEW about this new allegation and just kept plowing ahead with his nomination.

Bastards.

Avenatti says this is not his client.

Oh boy, so there's MORE to come...

There is what she describes a plastic penis in the story.

R40- I think when all this is through, he'll be lucky to get a job at a donut shop.

That whole Whelan thing smacked of total desperation, so they all must have known Ford wasn't the only one. There's never just "one sexual assault" in these cases.

Gross behavior, though not as bad as Ford's allegations. But certainly destroys his "I would NEVER!" crap.

But holy shit, Mark Judge. No wonder he refused to testify. Having to testify about this story plus his own writings about his nasty blackout assholery would have ruined him.

Everything Trump touches, even through 3rd parties, dies.

r46, that explains the "dildo" thing people were talking about.

Could she describe it in detail? Length, girth, cut, uncut, veiny, smooth? I really think it’s important that we know.

[quote] I hope Kavenaugh winds up having to apply for a job at a donut shop.

Well, he can still coach that basketball team. Oh...wait... AMBER ALERT!!

I'm on the fence about how damaging this new allegation is. She says he exposed himself but Ronan admits "The New Yorker has not confirmed with other eyewitnesses that Kavanaugh was present at the party." and "Ramirez acknowledged that there are significant gaps in her memories". Sounds very similar to the first allegation where it's a he said/she said with no eyewitnesses coming forward. Only third parties who heard about it.

Maybe a dildonut shop, r40...

Her name is Demi Ramirez, she lives in Boulder, Colorado, says it happened while she was at Yale University between 1983 and 1987.

Kavanaugh, you in danger girl!

R50 That reminds me. Didn't the police look at Michael Jackson's penis after the first (?) child molestation accusation to see if it matched the description given to them by the accuser?

Wow, can’t believe they are reporting all this explicit smutty stuff with so little details or corroboration.

Maybe Cocaine Mitch will need to look at Kavanaugh's penis to see if it matches her description

If this is true, it can’t be the only time it happened.

R52- I think it's enough. It shows a pattern of behavior.

I wonder if they're busy creating calendar pages for 1983-1987?

Lindsey Graham wants that job, R59!

What kind of fucking weirdo would keep 35 year old calendars? No one, that's who.

[bold]FIENDISHSCH SHEX PUTSHZ[/bold]

There's more to come. Avenatti has a client with allegations he specifically said is not Ramirez.

It continues to escalate....Grassley releases mostly unredacted letter Ford initially wrote to Feinstein, which he has been demanding for last several days. Feinstein asked him not to release it publicly.

And now Avenatti supposedly has something coming out soon too...

How long before the Repubs decide Kavanaugh just aint worth it anymore?

r54 here, sorry, I got her name wrong. Her name is Debi (Deborah) Ramirez, not Demi.

I’m not sure I get the dildo reference but all of this news is a dream come true..

"So is there a freshman year calendar?"

Hahahahhahahaha!!

r65, when they're confident the FBI can no longer follow the paper trail of decades of "donations" and money laundering that has flowed between the GOP and and Moscow mobsters. In other words: never.

The best thing would be if it was a hooker/dominatrix who Kavanaugh asked to use a dildo on him.

Rick Wilson just said- "Tomorrow. Brace for impact."

WTF does THAT mean??

I want KavaNO to be completely and totally humiliated, and I would love for him to have to not only withdraw from consideration as a Supreme Court justice, but to resign his seat on the D.C. Circuit as well. However, I would also love for this to play out for a week or more to demonstrate to voters how despicable and sleazy the Repukes are. AND, for the Dems to try and delay the inevitable hearings on the new nominee as long as possible. It took six weeks to get KavaNO ready for his hearings. We are only five weeks away from the mid-terms.

Is it true there wouldn’t be enough time to nominate and have hearings for a new SC justice before the midterms?

r70, no, something more along the lines of Christian Bale's shitrag would the nail in the coffin.

Christian Bale's shitrag? Intrigued.

r71, maybe Brett is also a serial killer. I can easily see him having left a trail of strippers with broken necks in parking lots.

r75=n00b

MSNBC is the only one reporting this. CNN is covering Tiger Woods golf win and Fox New is blathering about Bork.

Mark Krasberg, a member of Kavanaugh and Ramirez's class, told New Yorker Kavanaugh's behavior at Yale had become a topic of discussion among former students after his nomination. In one e-mail, a classmate recalled hearing about the incident with Ramirez.

"It's going to be interesting to see what kind of pictures Ed Whelan posts to find Kavanaugh's doppelganger in this new story." - Tom Nichols.

Tom is the best :)

R79- This sounds a lot more convincing than a calendar page from 1982.

R71 Probably a reference to Avenatti's interview with Chris Cuomo set to air tomorrow

I do find it odd that Avenatti is saying he has "credible information" and not a "credible accusation"

I am going to assume Rick WIlson is speculating how wired the Resident will be tomorrow on Twitter due to Kavanaugh news

So with 2 accusers and one more to come - what does the GOP do now? "Plow ahead"? Convince Kavanaugh to step down for the good of the party? Delay the hearing so they can come up with more "theories" or calendar pages??

r72, six weeks. six.

I wouldn’t count on Avenatti producing anything. Didn’t he have other women who were going to come forward about Trump or something and then nothing?

Forbes lays out nicely the GOP's massive failures in handling this.

@maggieNYT Per people in contact with him, Trump was briefed earlier today on the allegations in the New Yorker piece. Per one person briefed on the discussions, Trump said this is why they should have been fighting the Ford allegations from the beginning.

[quote] [R72], six weeks. six.

...would be the new legal cut-off for abortions, if Brett was given a throne on the Supreme Court.

Li'l Brett's freshman year roommate (he was in a suite with only one other person): "He said that he never witnessed Kavanaugh engage in any sexual misconduct, but did recall him being 'frequently, incoherently drunk.'"

R89, MAGA Haberman can always be counted on to put out the spin exactly as Trump wants it.

R72/R86, I bet they've had a back-up nominee prepping just in case. If Kavanaugh withdraws, you can bet they will rush whomever is named to replace him. And they'll be a huge GOTV push to get their base to punish the Dems for Kavanaugh's implosion.

[quote] @maggieNYT Per people in contact with him, Trump was briefed earlier today on the allegations in the New Yorker piece. Per one person briefed on the discussions, Trump said this is why they should have been fighting the Ford allegations from the beginning.

I would like to say that we will never see the likes of [italic]this[/italic] in the White House again, but I don't know if I believe that.

R79- So this was talked about in email and Mark Kasberg seems to validate that Kavanaugh exhibited this kind of behavior? No wonder the GOP didn't want witnesses at this hearing.

I just read on Twitter that the Repubs knew about this second woman last week which was why they were trying to rush the hearing thru with no witnesses. how much lower do you think the republicans can go?

How long before Sen. Collins runs to the press and complains Grassley tricked her into agreeing to a rushed hearing the way McConnell tricked her into voting for the tax cuts?

r95, don't overestimate their integrity, ability to feel shame or comprehension of common decency.

So are they still going to plow through and confirm this sleaze?

Avenatti tells @PaulaReidCBS that the woman he’s representing knew Kavanaugh in high school—which means her story is not in tonight’s New Yorker piece, which focuses on an accusation against Kavanaugh while he was a student at Yale.

I guess we'll be seeing Kavanaugh's calendar from high school now?

Rick Wilson is hinting about something for tomorrow.

Why the coy hints? Just spill it.

Avenatti is suggesting gang rape!!!

I take Avenatti with a grain of salt. He's desperately trying to be a viable Dem candidate in 2020. He's so serious he was trashing Beto O'Rourke after the debate on Friday because he's figured out Beto's the frontrunner now for the Dem nom.

A gang rape was detailed in the Ronan article, connected with Kavanaugh's hs buddy Mark Judge: "Rasor stressed that “under normal circumstances, I wouldn’t reveal information that was told in confidence,” but, she said, “I can’t stand by and watch him lie.” In an interview with The New Yorker, she said, “Mark told me a very different story.” Rasor recalled that Judge had told her ashamedly of an incident that involved him and other boys taking turns having sex with a drunk woman. Rasor said that Judge seemed to regard it as fully consensual."

Whoa! Gang rape?! Gamechanger.

Shit, one if it turns out this is the tip of the iceberg. It's bigger than Kavanaugh, there is a slew of sexual assault/rape cases by the same group of boys from this school. This becomes a domino effect.

Between all this and the possible connection of Kavanaugh to the Whelan alt-theory that imploded, it is likely to be too much for him to hang on.

Talk about deep state sounds pretty hollow compared to this.

Just when I think this story can't get any crazier

Everything

Trump

Touches

Dies.

Mo women mo problems

Ramirez is now receiving tons of hate email from the orc-hordes of deplorables.

Feinstein calling for an immediate postponement of confirmation hearings.

Whoa. Avenatti has evidence Brett Kavanaugh and Mark Judge engaged in the "targeting of women with alcohol/drugs in order to allow a 'train' of men to subsequently gang rape them."

Gang rape? OMG. Like to see Whelan come up with floor plans to explain this.

Well, if Avenatti has evidence of gang rape and Ronan's article has the same with that ex-gf of Judge, I'd say that's Game. Set. Match.

Starting to spread in teh press:

Dear lord in heaven!!!!

What teenage boy hasn't committed a few gang rapes?

Have any boys come forward with allegations they were victims of a gang bang?

Do you guys think there will still be a hearing on Thursday? He wants to defend himself.

Boys will be boys, LOL!

This will be over by sundown Monday. On to to the midterms!

R121, does he? He was ok with them having no hearing.

This explains that leak about how BK didn't want to answer ANY questions of a sexual nature in his mock hearing run-through at the WH.

Yeah, I can see now why he didn't.

Oh, is this why Rick Wilson said to Brace for Impact? Gang rape certainly qualifies for that.

Yas Queen DiFi henny

But, but...DiFi is old. We wanna get rid of her cuz Youth!!

And now I quite desperately want recordings of Chuck Grassley's staffers having to explain to him what "pulling a train" means.

Who wants to defend this garbage? Pull the plug already.

DiFi and Pelosi -- they just get shit done.

If they still confirm BK after all this, what recourse do the Democrats have if they retake the Senate? Is there any way to get him out after he's confirmed??

Lol @r115

Law and Order: Zillow still cracks me up.

R132, when he drops dead. They need a majority vote in the House to impeach (possible) and a 2/3 majority vote in the Senate to convict him (not happening).

The GOP should have forseen this. Once one woman comes forward, it breaks the dam. There's no way a teenage boy is going to stop at just ONE sex assault if that's what he's inclined to do. But even they must be a little surprised that gang rape would come into it.

Worth noting as background that Kavanaugh's drinking at Yale would have been legal, since although the CT drinking age had recently changed, he was grandfathered in.

Ed Whelan's latest tweet:

There's an explanation. Plenty of exits available. And, there are so many sensors! Gang rape sensors! No gang rape!! PS: Phallic imagery is completely coincidental! #BKNoGangBang #BKAngelBoy #BKSpiderman

"Kavanaugh must also be asked about this entry in his yearbook: "FFFFFFFourth of July." We believe that this stands for: Find them, French them, Feel them, Finger them, F*ck them, Forget them. As well as the term "Devil's Triangle." Perhaps Sen. Grassley can ask him. "- Avenatti

Is this still Infrastructure Week?

"I could have had a nice respectable life as a federal appeals court judge. The Federalist Society would have ensured my legacy by citing my crackbrained decisions as examples of genius. Instead I'll be written in history books as the SCOTUS nominee who rode a train and was derailed."

He'll be lucky if he doesn't finish this week on the Registered Sex Offender list.

lol r141. So fucking true.

W&W for R129!!!

When the big orange head will tweet about this?

R142, if the repubs proceed, then the country storms the Capitol and exterminates each and very repug traitor to this country.

Would someone please bump the latest Mueller thread? Tia.

r145, you are sadly wildly over-estimating how much most Americans care about women being raped.

Is difi worried about the latest allegation upsetting her "friends" on the committee?

r146, why? Why don't you just click on it and read it? Or check your thread watcher to see if there are new posts since you last read it? You don't seem to understand how this website works.

R147, and you are wildly underestimating the rage and anger in this country.

Don't know if this is legitimate but saw this article about some federal court employees who had concerns about Kavanaugh but were afraid of retaliation. This letter was sent in July.

Guess if you were a predator in high school you just don't outgrow it.

r150, no I'm fully aware of how angry people in this country are. I'm also aware that 75% of that rage is directed towards women and that most straight men and many gay men and many women, for that matter, don't consider women to be actual human beings. All you need as evidence of that is to look at the fact that the GOP thought they could brush off the brutal attack of a young girl because they knew people wouldn't really give a shit. As I said previously, it takes at least 4 women to make water tight accusations for the claims of any of them to be taken seriously at all. So here we are. Brett was nominated to strip women of their personhood because women's autonomy dangles on a reversible legal precedent rather than being codified into the constitution. You will be dangerously disappointed if you assume this takedown of Brett is really about people being up in arms that women were assaulted rather than what it is: the last thing they could try to stop him with, the hail mary.

R151 that is super juicy... I hope they come forward. Snaps to them for speaking to the press.

At least half a dozen federal court employees have stories to share, says attorney.

Brett Kavanaugh is Donald Trump’s pick for the SCOTUS seat vacated by Justice Anthony Kennedy, and he’s increasingly surrounded by controversy. After a woman who says Kavanaugh attempted to rape her in high school came forward to share her story, an attorney is sharing a letter he says he sent to Senators in July, letting them know that federal court employees also have concerns.

Multiple court employees approached attorney Cyrus Sanai, he says, to share concerns and stories before the confirmation of Kavanaugh. In a July letter, Sanai informed senators Chuck Grassley and Diane Feinstein that these individuals wanted to share their concerns, but were afraid of retaliation.

R154- Well now that they've got cover by all these women coming forward, they should also come forward and explain their concerns.

The GOP and Trump must hate Avenetti. Has tRump every Tweeted his name? I'm loving it!

r52 I think the Ramirez story will be too easy for them to discredit. Please let Avenetti come out with something good.

BEWARE: R146 is a Super Troll who has obviously been blocked from using basic DL functions!

Icarus is flying too close to the sun....

[quote]Guess if you were a predator in high school you just don't outgrow it.

Not if everyone in your subsequent life rewards you for being just the way you are.

r144 his response:

well...I really didn't know him. The one time I met him I knew there was something I didn't like about him. He wasn't my first choice but he was recommended by (insert name of the person Trump would like to blame for this one)

r161, believe it or not, Trump says he's NEVER met with Kavanaugh. Not once to this day.

[quote]believe it or not, Trump says he's NEVER met with Kavanaugh. Not once to this day.

I actually believe this could be true. Trump has just been going off a list supplied to him by a conservative group. I don't think he put much independent thought or work into this selection. That would require work and time and reading. I also think since things have come to light they have made sure that Trump has had some distance from Kavanaugh and have not had them meet personally.

Hmm I wonder if it was someone from the supposed "internal resistance" who convinced Dump to throw out the suggested list and choose Brett.

[quote]I don't think he put much independent thought or work into this selection.

Thanks r163. Needed a good laugh to start this week.

"Trump" and "independent thought" in the same sentence can only be trumped by "Trump" and "work" in the same sentence.

Kavanaugh was ONLY selected because he didn't believe a sitting president should be indicted or even investigated. As someone said on one of the other threads, he was going to be Trump's get out of jail free card. This selection, like everything else Trump has ever done, wasn't for his base or his party; it was for him.

R163, Trump spent more time with Kavanaugh than with any other candidate. Of course he's met him. Of course, I can only imagine what they talked about.

r166 and they had the Russian mob pay off his gambling debts so he was bought from go.

It is both shocking and appalling that so many GOP senators are issuing statements before hearing a word of testimony from the alleged victim. And what a bunch of cowards they are for hiring a litigator to grill her, as if she were on trial, instead of questioning her themselves, as is their responsibility. And SHE is the only one asking for an FBI investigation too. And now another incident has been reported. All this makes me think he's guilty as hell, and THEY know it.

And now, with the third accuser surfacing, they are "postponing" the hearing. Dr. Ford's lawyers played this brilliantly! And the R's were shown to be the ruthless, amoral bastards they are. Again.

Kellyanne on CBS This Morning. Her daughters must be ever so proud.

Nice job vetting, 45

Kavanaugh’s days as a girl’s basketball coach should, at the barest minimum, now be over. I can’t imagine any father wanting his daughters (who are close in age to the girls he has tried to or even possibly succeeded in raping) to be anywhere near this man.

I bet the wife files for divorce before the end of the week.

Nah, she'll hang in there, R174, even if the repubs have to pay her.

I'm going to feel a little queasy welcoming him back to my circuit court at this point. Can someone please impeach him from that?

Now it looks a bit weird him parading all those girls from his school around.

Avenatti tells Politico he represents a group of individuals who can corroborate allegations involving Kavanaugh and his longtime friend in the 1980s.

Avenatti said he’d describe just one of the individuals as a victim.

“She will testify,” he said. “But before she does, she will likely appear on camera for an interview.”

He said the others were witnesses to the allegations. Avenatti would not elaborate on the number of clients but said he represents them alone.

“I represent multiple clients, they are witnesses. I’m representing multiple individuals that have knowledge of this, there’s no other attorneys involved." Asked if the witnesses attended Georgetown Prep’s sister school, he said they went beyond that. “They went to schools in the same general areas. These house parties were widely attended.”

And yet, sickeningly, this piece of shit will still preside on the Supreme Court. Disgusting.

Really, R179? I don’t see that happening now. Especially if Avenatti’s claims substantiate and actual (completed) gang rape.

It’s not encouraging that this thread literally stopped dead in its tracks as soon as this Rosenstein thing broke.

r181 that's because it is one catastrophe after another and one can't decide which way to turn their head.

Pretty much

Is Kavanaugh so ambitious that he would risk putting his wife and daughters through an ugly hearing???

A pattern of behavior is emerging and I knew right from the beginning that Christine Ford wasn't the only one to be assaulted by this man and his prep boy posse. If he had any respect for his family and country, he would redraw his nomination before the shit really hits the fan.

These guys feel omnipotent. That’s why he thinks he can get away with it

One must multi-task and plow through the calculated diversions, r182.

Investigators in Montgomery County confirmed Monday they’re aware of a potential second sexual assault complaint in the county against former Georgetown Prep student and Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

While investigators weren’t specific and spoke on background, they said they are looking at allegations against Kavanaugh during his senior year in high school after an anonymous witness came forward this weekend.

This would potentially bring the number to four women accusing Kavanaugh of wrongdoing and comes after Deborah Ramirez, a former Yale college student, stepped forward this weekend to accuse Kavanaugh of exposing himself to her in college, and after attorney Michael Avenatti tweeted out a message saying he represents a woman with “credible information regarding Judge Kavanaugh and Mark Judge.”

Washington Post opinion: GOP have dug 8 holes for themselves. Well, they're ASSHOLES so that makes sense!

Why didn't he just say he had a drinking problem in school and made lots of dumb decisions and he's real sorry and apologizes?

Instead he says he was never there, never did that. It's the lies that will bring him down, not the drunken school boy fumblings.

R187 I think this might be related to Avenatti who has claimed to have witness(es) but not actual victims.

I read a tweet that says he has one victim and several witnesses.

Avenatti apparently has a victim plus witnesses. And he's already taunting them about going after his client's credibility:

Yale has canceled classes so that students can protest the Brett Kavanaugh nomination.

WOW!

Kavanaugh issues new statement: "I Will Not Be Intimidated Into Withdrawing"

[quote]Yale has canceled classes so that students can protest the Brett Kavanaugh nomination.

If they keep this up, we are gonna have some very uneducated people running things in a few years.

So: Sexual assault victims are "intimidating" Mr. Prep School-Ivy League Rapist-Perv. LOL.

Brett still says he didn’t do it. Do you guys think he’s credible?

[quote]Brett still says he didn’t do it. Do you guys think he’s credible?

Absolutely.

Why wouldn't he be credible? Just because all his answers from his confirmation so far haven't been credible in the slightest doesn't mean he won't start telling the truth now!

Kavanaugh looks like a repressed alter boy, who goes crazy at the idea of sex.

All his interest in Clinton and Monica sex now sounds like perverted interest. He got off on it.

Totally

"I haven't even begun to plumb the depths of humiliation to which I am willing to subject my wife and daughters."

Fucking sex putz, lying liar and overall hypocrite. He pretty much represents all the qualities of the GOP

looking at many pictures of Brettles:

1) hard to believe he's early fifties...looks mid-sixties 2) those flowering gin blossoms in his face! 3) he's got to be a (barely) functioning alcoholic

McConnell: “Judge Kavanaugh will be voted on here on the Senate floor. Up or down on the Senate floor, this fine nominee to the Supreme Court will receive a vote in this Senate in the near future”

After the sex pest.

From NYT reporter: "KAVANAUGH to break TV silence tonight on FOX NEWS -- he and wife Ashley taped interview this afternoon with @marthamaccallum, set to air this evening, per 2 sources"

Hope he vomits

So they found a blonde Fox bobblehead who'll sit there and nod in agreement while the Sex Pest Gin Blossom rants and raves and the Stepford wife is sucking on her valium in silence.

Avenatti already said his client is going on air for an interview (not sure if that will include the witnesses as well). Kavanaugh would be smart to hold off.

^Oops, guess it's too late. Bring on Avenatti's client!

Avenatti was already scheduled to be on Chris Cuomo's show tonight. I bet this interview airs at the same time to serve as a distraction.

I'd be curious if this motivates Ford to do an interview before testifying on Thursday

Avenatti better fucking have something solid. He’s such a carnival barker.

Brian J. Karem seems to be walking back his earlier tweet saying MCPD were investigating a fourth accuser:

"We never claimed the MCPD were investigating the story. We never named who the investigators were. We said they were in Montgomery County - that is all. And we never claimed there were charges."

Haha:

R218, so shady. A layperson's understanding of "investigators" is law enforcement.

Mainstream journalism standards are in the toilet.

Doesn't this violate some sort of law to give him free airtime?

No, you are thinking of the fairness doctrine which was repelled under Reagon.

One of Kavanaugh's classmates who signed a letter (prepared by his lawyers) denying Ronan's New Yorker story has now backed off from her testimonial.

Actually two of them have withdrawn their support from the letter, as per little Satchel's twitter.

R224 One of those asking for her name to removed from the support letter is Louisa Garry. The woman supporting him in the tv commercial. (Here is Wash DC media, it's on a lot.)

What Brett and the Repugs have done to those girls in school is what they are doing to our country- running a train, putting their hands over the mouth of this country, turning up the (FOX) noise to drown out her screams of being raped.

They are shoving Kavanaugh’s so called innocence down our throats. Fox News is as sleazy as they come. Kavanaugh comes off very sneaky and arrogant. Now we know he was a virgin in high school and college and for a very long time. Is he for real?

Wait! Brett was an INCEL?!?

R228, that suggests that he has serious trouble with sex and women. It's one of the most disturbing things we know about him.

[quote]that suggests that he has serious trouble with sex and women. It's one of the most disturbing things we know about him.

This has probably been mentioned - but add his obsession with the details of Clinton sex in the questions he wanted to ask during his Ken Starr days.

Renate is not amused!

"Alumnius"?

Oh, dear! And in a yearbook from a Jesuit high school!

I was just about to post the story at R232. The shivs are only getting sharper and longer.

"she was someone they all called upon to go to dances with them" - Sure Jan. That's why they have reference to her all over their yearbook.

Poor woman - and she was one of the women who signed that initial support letter for BK! Says now she stands by the letter, but is 'sickened' by the yearbook references and claims not to have known about them until now.

Every night I light a candle to the Virgin Mary requesting one thing - that a US Senator will ask Mark Kavanaugh under oath Thursday if he's ever boofed.

R236 I don’t want to even google “boofed”.

Ford's lawyers just sent out a new letter and it hints she might not show up on Thursday

He seems both arrogant and possibly not as bright as he things he is. He really overdid it on the interview with the virgin bit and focused on being top of the class and going to church. He is trying to hard and looks like an idealized version of Wally Cleaver rather than a real person. It makes it seem like he doth protest too much rather than he is telling the truth of what he was like.

R237: taking drugs up the butt.

*the more you know*

It's probably Victoria Toensing.

I thought "boof" just meant anal, short for "bu(tt)f(uck)." Trivia: it was also Montgomery Clift's brother's nickname for him.

McConnell is probably ruing not having prevented Trump from nominating Kavanaugh, whose liabilities he clearly saw (especially the huge paper trail, but maybe the messy, uncontainable past as well). Now he's going on the offensive as the only plausible alternative, but that's only digging his party deeper and alienating voters without winning over any new ones.

And it’s alienating women voters most of all. BIG mistake.

Not us R243!

You have to love Avenetti. Of course, Rachel only has him on her show when it is really good scoop! The next 48 hours should prove to be interesting. Can’t wait.

Kavanaugh is toast per avenatti on Rachel tonight!

R246. Don’t you love it? I wouldn’t want to mess with him.

I love that Kavanaugh jumped the gun and sat for that interview before Avenatti started talking. What a dumbass to pull the "I was a virgin choir boy" route.

Omg r247 amazing how an Avenatti appearance can make me feel better!

As you all may recall, Avenatti pulled precisely the same routine when all the Stormy Daniels crap first came out.

He made staggering allegations, insisting he had the receipts.

And it turns out he did.

Next 48 hours are going to be interesting to say the least. Sounds like the hearing might not even happen Thursday, given the letter from Dr. Ford's new power attorney.

R238 posted something IMPORTANT. Read that letter.

Ford's lawyers are not letting Repuns push their client around. Their behavior is the opposite of what Democrats normally do - bend over.

I posted this in the other thread, just bits and pieces I was able to transcribe for those couldn't watch....

Representing one client who's both a witness and victim, and additional corroborating witnesses to what she is going to allege publicly within the next 48 hours.

"This woman, when she does surface, will be found to be 100% credible by the American public. I would not be representing her if I did not believe her, and if anyone has been paying attention over the last six or seven months, they'll know that I do not traffic in nonsense or rumor."

Rachel: Are there other people witnesses to one specific allegation?

"No, it's not about one specific allegation. It's a series of allegations; this is a pattern of behavior that took place across many months and many years."

Rachel: Your focus on Mark Judge, is it about his own alleged bad behavior or is there something about him specifically that you feel is crucial to shedding light on the allegations against Kavanaugh?

"Because Mark Judge and Brett Kavanaugh were effectively joined at the hip for an extended period of time during the years at issue. They participated in various conduct together, which we believe is absolutely disqualifying as it relates to Kavanaugh serving on the US Supreme Court."

"I think there may very well be a criminal complaint made relating to this conduct and we may very well pursue criminal charges relating to the perpetrators at issue relating to what my client alleges."

Avenatti was riveting tonight on Rachel! I think Avenatti was basically implying that Brett and his friend Mark and participated in a gang rape of a woman in high school. The woman (who was described as both a witness and a victim) and other witnesses are coming forward in the next 48 hours.

Avenatti has something big. He would not make such huge pronouncements without backing it up.

Avenatti has GOT that fucker!

[quote]Avenatti has GOT that fucker!

If he really does have something bad and provable, it will also make all those GOP Senate leaders look esp.bad since the last day they went from implying the women are lying to practically saying it outright and being very dismissive about sexual assault charages.

It might have gotten missed in all the mishegas, but Dr. Ford's new attorney (Bingham?) is a powerhouse litigator who just quit his law partnership to represent her.

This shit isn't dying down anytime soon.

McConnell will still insist on an up or down vote no matter how bad the allegations are. The GOP has a weird rape fetish.

Let them vote him in. This will give the Dems the Senate. Then the shit will hit the fan when it is revealed who he really is and other women come forward. Impeachment will follow.

Jesus Christ, no. The Dems will not have 67 votes in the Senate to remove him. Odds are low they will ever have enough votes long enough to pull off an impeachment and conviction. If Kavanaugh gets on SCOTUS, he's on for life, he will be a bitter nasty vindictive woman hating bitch, and it will show in every one of his decisions.

r258, do you have any idea how many more women will die gruesome horrific completely preventable deaths if he is appointed? And how many more unwanted children will be used to keep the bunks warm in for-profit-prisons -- after fulfilling the gop wet dream of crime levels actually skyrocketing? We'll be in a full-on dystopia if that monster of a man is allowed to dictate the laws of the land.

Doing that Fox interview was a mistake for Kavanaugh. They've given Ford's team - and Avenatti- plenty of ammunition now - it's like he's "testifying" first, which is what Ford wanted. He really tried to oversell his virginity-clean-cut-American boy angle. And the 'oh, no, I never heard of ANY kind of parties like THAT." Really? When Mark Judge is his good friend?

He came off as inauthentic and downright creepy in the Fox News interview.

In Mark Judge's memoir, he describes blacking out from drinking after a wedding. When he's told by a friend later that he made moves on a bridesmaid, Judge says his immediate response was that he hoped he didn't hurt her.

But yeah, his best friend and drinking partner was a virgin altar boy.

You just have to read his hs yearbook page to know that he was party-hearty football player. What he's saying now is that that was all a put-on, implausibly.

Judge left town to make sure he wouldn't be subpoenaed.

"How'd you find me?" HAHA, OMG.

Ted Cruz and his wife just got chased out of a restaurant by people shouting "We believe survivors" and I'm living for it.

"Beto is way hotter than you, dude" at 0:10!

R266 that is life!

Brett was STUPID for doing that interview. Whoever said it is tantamount to testifying first was right. Oh they just can't help themselves.

They are FRANTIC to get him on. It is beyond repulsive. It is all politics. What is the rush? Because they KNOW there is more out there. The Repugs know there is so much more out there.

R266 Great video.

Can't wait for the lectures on "civility" after that video at R266 hits the news.

No civility is deserved for these repulsive GOP pigs.

“Let Heidi through!”

"Only the President can be rude to my wife and get away with it!"

r272 You forgot to add- "Let Heidi through. Dump is gonna insult her some more tonight. We'll miss the call!"

At :18 some guy says to Heidi, “Did he forget you?” and then laughs.

Thanks for the video, R266. It looks to me that the protesters were young women and men. That warms my heart.

My friends, I am very conservative when I make predictions, and I only make a prediction about once per decade. I think this week is going to be.......epic.

John Hellman stated on Lawrence’s show that he was a bartender that waited on Kavanaugh’s drunken friend. John said he was exactly as his book described as him. An obnoxious drunk.

I'm already whelmed. I'm not sure how much more I can take.

Aidy Bryant will no doubt play Mrs. Kavanaugh on SNL, grimacing and nodding like she did tonight on Fox.

I keep praying that Mueller will come out with a bunch of indictments.

I can’t believe it’s still Monday.

r280, her contract wasn't renewed. She's not on the show any more. She did a pilot that may or may not have been picked up.

Really, R283? Are you sure?

Is Brett the best we can do?

Pathetic, weak, sniveling, soulless man. A damn DEMON.

What's interesting about that "virgin" remark is that it sets the stage for his consenting sexual partners to come forward to call him a liar.

Ed Whelan must have been coaching him. Why does he think that labelling himself a "virgin" means that he was incapable of committing sexual assault??

r287 Or incapable of attempting to commit rape.

If any of you know Evangelicals or Catholics, etc, they learned very young that being a virgin only means you haven't had intercourse. Most anything else is fair game and still eligible to conveniently consider yourself a virgin.

I'm assuming FFFFFFFox Noise didn't ask good ol' virginous Brett what FFFFFFFourth of July meant in his yearbook, right?

What I want to know is this: will Melania dismiss the Renate Alumnius development as “locker room banter” or will she simply sport a new Fall edition of Zara’s I DON’T CARE jacket to express her indifference to it all.

[quote]If he really does have something bad and provable, it will also make all those GOP Senate leaders look esp.bad since the last day they went from implying the women are lying to practically saying it outright and being very dismissive about sexual assault charges.

As did Trump and his son, of course. The early response of each to Ford was a sordid disgrace, and will bear much repetition however the chips fall.

Not that such sociopaths care, but voters will. Putin will need to up his game for the next cycle of electoral interference.

Mark Judge skipped town, how conveeeeeeenieeeeeeeeeent

Mike Judge is the weak link. He shows consciousness of guilt and deep-down, he may want to confess.

This guy STILL hasn’t resigned?

Someone should clue him in.

I'm glad Avenatti is on our side. He's a pit bull.

R294, Mark Judge.

According to Bill Clinton, blow jobs arent sex. So, in Kavanaugh’s mind, maybe he is a virgin.

Has BK & wife ever got together with the Stones to SWING?

Roger Stone has been shown on TV vigorously supporting BK.

Fake thread! Fake news!

I think some Americans are uneasy about Kavanaugh but no one with a brain trusts Schumer, Feinstein, Mazie. So the nom still has a chance.

Kavanaugh is so desperate. He's going on Fox News? Really? So desperate for the gig. Maybe he has addition huge debts to pay off, needs the side gigs that come with it.

Mark Judge is such a sad little boy. Can't take responsibility for his past - just writes about it.

Mark Judge is harboring some major demons, you can just tell.

I can’t wait until he falls off the wagon and starts spilling T. I wonder if Kavanaugh and his handlers have discussed having him bumped off. He is what would typically be referred to as “wetworks.”

there is a chance that Russia paid off Kavanaugh's debts. I'm sure they expect something in return. If he doesn't get in how is he going to deliver?

I wouldn't put it past Trump's minions to have Judge "disappear" or succumb to a "mysterious toxin."

Dems, if they ever get a chance to nominate a Supreme Court justice ever again (gerrymandering, voter suppression, "national emergency" and elections suspension, etc.), might do best to nominate women when it comes to avoiding this sort of thing. Statistically women commit rape less frequently than men, etc. Harassment, yeah, it happens but also less frequently. The GOP will always mostly nominate men, so it'll balance out.

Excellent thought, R309!

I get it, R310. But I'd bet money that no one comes forward to accuse Barrett of sexual harassment. Ideology doesn't matter - if they're a woman, they're less likely to have harassed, etc.

But yeah, the GOP might extend itself one in a while and choose a woman. Second choice, in this case, if it happens.

[quote] What I want to know is this: will Melania dismiss the Renate Alumnius development as “locker room banter” or will she simply sport a new Fall edition of Zara’s I DON’T CARE jacket to express her indifference to it all.

You're giving Mel too much credit. Do you honestly think she knows what the Supreme Court is and that there are judges who sit on it?

R303, you’re a trumptard

Reuters....

That interview was a huge mistake. What an idiot. Desperation breeds idiocy.

So Mark Judge doesn't have a criminal record? I guess his privilege helped him slide through the law's hands.

You know it did, r316.....

Will more women show up and vote Dem in the midterms if he's approved vs. being withdrawn?

R309 So all men should be disqualified because of the actions of a few? Should this also be the rule for presidential candidates or all men in general?

R319, I was expecting a backlash. No, I didn't say all men should be disqualified. I said:

[quote] Dems ... might do best to nominate women when it comes to avoiding this sort of thing.

That is, Dems might do best to choose women, if they want to avoid sexual harassment claims against their nominees. Women can be accused too, but it might be less likely than a man being accused. All I'm saying is that it might be a factor if they want a smooth nomination process. They can always face any number of other claims that aren't more frequently committed by men, too (e.g., insider trading, fraud).

If I were the female prosecutor questioning Ford, I'd totally throw the questioning LOL. Just go really easy on her etc. I'd have played a part in history, if then it leads to Kavanaugh being rejected.

Trump, McConnell etc. keep insisting there'll be a vote. I think it's bluster. I think Collins and Flake will indicate they won't vote for Kavanaugh and then the White House will withdraw his nomination and bitch loudly about conspiracies etc.

Kellyanne will lobby for Amy Barrett, but I think Trump will nominate another white male to show defiance.

Hopefully not Senator Lee

Grassley has confirmed that the GOP has hired a female lawyer to represent it at the hearing, but won’t say who she is.

I'm going to predict that it's this partner at Covington & Burling who represents the worst, most nefarious clients (like the people who own the Ringling circus, where she defended animal abuse).

R325, I don't think Ford wants that. doesn't she want to vibe questioned by the actual senators? I think that is part of the agreement her attorney is seeking.

Another woman brings charges against Kavanaugh -with the Montgomery County police. I think this is M Avanatie client.

Well does this mean Kavanaugh didn’t get wet dreams or masturbate too?

[quote] Well does this mean Kavanaugh didn’t get wet dreams or masturbate too?

Let's NOT contemplate either of the two scenarios. Even this place has its boundaries when it comes to bad taste.

Since WHEN, R330?!?

This tool is linking to Project Veritas i.e. James O'Keefe?? Go die in a grease fire!

If Dr. Ford is questioned by an attorney, how does everyone’s questions and follow up get answered.

Is this a legal proceeding?

[quote] If I were the female prosecutor questioning Ford, I'd totally throw the questioning LOL. Just go really easy on her etc. I'd have played a part in history, if then it leads to Kavanaugh being rejected.

Is this a troll post?

[quote]Grassley has confirmed that the GOP has hired a female lawyer to represent it at the hearing, but won’t say who she is.

McConnell referred to her as a female assistant. They are really clueless.

Where is Avenatti going to show up with his client?

I don't know r337, my hotline to Avenatti isn't working right now.

How the FUCK are we supposed to know?!?

R337 Time is running out if he is going to throw a hell Mary. Is it necessary for you to uppercase the F word? Really?

R334, it seems meant to simulate a legal proceeding without actually being fair or informative.

As I understand it, both Ford and Kavanaugh will be given unlimited time to make their statements, and then each Senator will be given five minutes to ask questions (that is, five minutes for Ford and five minutes for Kavanaugh). Presumably, the Republicans' "female assistant" will be given all 30x2 minutes of the GOP Senators' questioning time. The Democratic Senators will have less time for questions since they have fewer members on the Committee.

^ lol r339

[quote]So all men should be disqualified because of the actions of a few? Should this also be the rule for presidential candidates or all men in general?

At this point, yes. Something is wrong with so many men at this point that you all need to start fixing yourselves and helping your fellow men fix themselves. Women in this country lived for generations without rights or representation. Actually, we still do if you count the whole 10% of elected offices and CEO positions, etc., filled by women. One generation won't kill you. If you all don't shape up as a sex, we'll wait two generations. Get to work!

Rachel Mitchell, a sex crimes prosecutor from Maricopa County in Arizona will be the questioner for the GOP.

What do we know about this cunt?

I love what Chris Matthews said tonight: those eleven Republican men are going to be hiding behind the skirt of a woman.

The Repugs look like absolute fools having someone talk for them. Do they not realize that? So, the Dems will all be asking their own questions and these idiots will be what, looking concerned and pretend whispering with serious faces to their assistants? Maybe one of them will break and yell, "You lie!" right in the middle. That would be great.

The entirety of the questioning of Kavanaught:

"So, you're innocent, right?"

I'm guessing Avenatti will spill whatever he's got during the day Wednesday. Or Wednesday evening, for even more maximum messiness.

I'm guessing Wednesday, late afternoon. He'll get all the evening news shows that way but the Repugs will not have time to respond. It will also give the Dems on the committee long enough to get their ammunition ready with the new information included.

Avenatti was smart to let Cosby’s sentencing saturate the airwaves today.

Stems from the same root.

I'm certain that Avenatti will play this for maximum effect.

Avenatti said the other day 48 hours so he'll be releasing it today. I have no interest in Avenatti as a politician but he sure does know how to play their game.

More Yale classmates come forward, rolling their eyes incredulously, to say that yes, he did drink to the point of incoherence in college, whatever he may be telling Fox News now.

The whole Republican ethos is that they create politically convenient fictions and the rest of us pretend to believe them, and their agenda proceeds. I think that neat little compact may be strained to the breaking point in this case.

Yeah Kavanaugh lying in his interview about his drinking shows a complete lack of character r352. You can't even tell the truth about that?!

and there were shades of Trump -- he had to paint himself as the cleanest, purest, most devout teenager ever.

Why the fuck are there four Mormon men on the judiciary committee???

Dude had a good life as a federal judge.

SMH at the greed of it all.

You could say the same of Trump. He could have lived out the rest of his life fucking porn models atop a pile of freshly laundered Russian money. Law enforcement (to our disgrace) wouldn’t have looked twice at him. But now...

I disagree, R361. I think the law would have caught up with him regardless.

There's a Hillary Clinton connection between lawyers for BOTH Brett Kavanaugh and Dr. Christine Ford.

Any rational person knew that already, R363.

R364

Mrs. Kavanaugh has NECK MOLES.

Michael Avenatti is speaking via telephone to The View know.

Gosh

Avenatti on MSNBC now.

How does Kavanaugh get confirmed in light of this allegation? It is the most serious to date and comes in conjunction with two other highly credible allegations both presented with a significant evidentiary basis.

"Fake news," R370. "It's all political." "Democrats are trying to destroy a good man." "Where is the physical evidence?" "Why did none of these people report it to the police at the time?" The usual bullshit and fake outrage.

That said, I do hope that we've finally reached the point where at least a few of the Republican Senators cannot continue to bury their heads in the sand. And it only takes two of them to kill this nomination.

Cheeto McAnuslips has finally tweeted acknowledgment of Daddy, which means he is PRESSED.

Since Avenatti is one of the very few people T-Rump has never taken on in his tweets, that's a remarkable sign of his desperation, R372. Also a fairly lame response, even for T-Rump.

Interesting that Qanon was all about Washington elites circling wagons to perpetuate sexual predation...and that's exactly what's going on in today's GOP.

my God, we have become so use to this I had to remind myself that this was our president who was referring to another person as a low life.

R375 - that's rich coming from the Executive -in-Chief of Lowlives!

Avenatti for President!!!!

[bold]FIENDISCH SCHECKSH PUTSCHZ[/bold]

So did Georgetown Prep provide Monday am confession time to cleanse the souls of any rapes the young scruffs Participated in during the weekends? Is that perk in the brochure?

do you think after this is done Kavanaugh will end up in jail since there are no statute of limitations? He's in so deep now adding all the lying to the Senate. It's awful watching someone dig their own grave.

I don't think Avenatti should be President but I do think he should be working for the FBI or CIA

Other people that were at these parties need to speak up!

Flake spoke this morning in the Senate about civility and how this is no longer about politics but about people. He and his fa ily have now had their lives threatened.

This is a 3 ring circus with the 3 ring ringmaster Trump

This is about people and civil behavior - I'm sure the rape victims agree with Flake. Oh that's right, he wasn't speaking about them.

r379, he and his family will be whisked away to Moscow before he's ever sitting in the defendant's chair.

Does anyone know what time the hearing is tomorrow?

10 a.m., per MSNBC

4th victim comes forward- this time in 1998. Just reported on NBC News

Who is paying for all the commercials on MSNBC in support of Kavanaugh? Sorry, people, you're preaching to the enemy who doesn't want him.

r388 Putin. Russian Oligarchs.

The fourth and fifth allegations, both anonymous and unconvincing appear to be shit tossed by the GOP monsters in order to discredit the three on-the-record and true ones. They werenleaked by the GOP staff.

Kavanaugh lost me from the very first news conference, when he said: "No president has ever consulted more widely, or talked with more people from more backgrounds, to seek input about a Supreme Court nomination."

It was sycophantic bullshit, which means that Kavanaugh had no qualms about lying, publicly and blatantly. And if someone is prepared to lie that badly about something so trivial, and doing so in a way that was totally unnecessary, that tells you all you need to know about their character.

Nothing I've seen since has persuaded me that my initial impression of him was incorrect.

Yep r391. In all the drama since then people have forgotten what he was like on day one, coming out there with that bullshit. He showed he was unworthy for the Supreme Court in his very first public appearance.

I just saw the clip of him introducing all the girls he coached at his hearing. Now it comes off as a bit creepy, but even without the allegations, why was that even relevant to the hearing. It seemed odd for him to trot out all of these girls to show why he was qualified to be a Supreme Court Justice.

They were trying to build up this squeaky clean, wholesome, "soccer dad" image and get him confirmed before his past started coming to light.

r393, it was part of a strange strategy to pre-emptively paint him as a white knight for vaginas across America before the general public knew he was a serial sexual abuser of women. They, also, included all that crap about his supposedly extensive hiring of female law clerks -- which we later learned was done to increase his access to attractive women he had a dominant power imbalance over -- and his supposed reverence for his hard working mother -- no doubt he learned the extent of the abuse women will tolerate silently by watching her interactions with his father and other men.

R393, more trump led circus. He perjured himself, he could barely stammer an answer to kamela harris, he’s clearly not fit .

[quote]he’s clearly not fit .

That reminds me of a criticism I read after Thomas was approved. Someone commented that all of the focus was on Anita Hill, but in reality he should not have been appointed because he was a mediocre legal mind at best, but that completely got dropped in the posturing.

one hundred percent, and indeed, look, thomas has been the most DO-nothing justice ever.

They don't give a shit, R398. All that counts is whether he's a reliable right-wing vote and, almost without exception, that's what he's been.

In addition to rape allegations, they should also look at how he miraculously managed to pay off hundreds of thousands of dollars in gambling debts all of a sudden.

r400, who should look at that? The Senate gop who are also in hock to the Russian mob? We need the UN to send in a multi-national coalition of armed forces.

Pardon if this has been discussed, but why isn't Trump justifiably furious with his team for their lackadaisical vetting of Kavanaugh.

He should be LIVID at them for causing this disaster in the first place.

r402, Trump is the one who insisted Brett The Rapist be the nominee. He was not any of the lists provided to him of qualified candidates. Yurtle The Fascist Turtle tried to talk him out of it and got nowhere.

[quote] Trump is the one who insisted Brett The Rapist be the nominee.

In other words, Russians or Bannon insisted he be the nominee.

Li'l Brett was the choice because he's essentially a Republican party hack, beholden to the elders of the party for his career, and would make all the right decisions: for broad executive power and privilege, against legal abortion and gay rights, etc. McTurtle was opposed to his nomination because of the extensive paper trail full of embarrassing or downright illegal political skulduggery, but Trump didn't care about that, and the decision was made simply not to release more than a fraction of Li'l Brett's record.

So Trump has only himself to blame. In some ways Brett's sleaziness is a feature-not-a-bug, in that ramming him through to the Court would affirm to the deplorables that we live in a world where teenage sexual assault and blackout drunkenness are just forgivable horseplay—and to the Republican party that persistent perjury in the service of the party won't be a drag on your trajectory to the top. Trump's not going to blame the ones who nominated Brett, he's going to blame the Democrats and others who dragged his sleaziness out into the open and made it disqualifying.

r404, right. And Putin wanted him because he could be and was bought in exchange for those gambling debts. I'm offended by the carelessness of their crimes, that there's not even an effort to hide their wrongdoing, that they believe themselves to be so far above the law that they don't even bother to try to make their money laundering fronts appear to be plausible businesses.
