Daily Wire "Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) said in a press statement on Monday that he has tried to coordinate a follow-up with Judge Brett Kavanaugh's accuser, Christine Blasey Ford, with Sen. Dianne Feinstein's (D-CA) office but that she has so far refused.
"Anyone who comes forward as Dr. Ford has deserves to be heard, so I will continue working on a way to hear her out in an appropriate, precedented and respectful manner," Grassley wrote.
"The standard procedure for updates to any nominee’s background investigation file is to conduct separate follow-up calls with relevant parties," Grassley continued. "In this case, that would entail phone calls with at least Judge Kavanaugh and Dr. Ford. Consistent with that practice, I asked Senator Feinstein’s office yesterday to join me in scheduling these follow-ups. Thus far, they have refused. But as a necessary step in evaluating these claims, I’ll continue working to set them up.' " . . .

The othering of Americans by Marxists
"Deplorable Dregs of Society": great name for a conservative web site!
"Deplorables and the dregs of society do not deserve to live, right? They do not do not deserve the same rights of citizenship.
"Consider free speech. Biden's party through its Antifa fascists have shut down conservative speakers from speaking on college campuses.
"Corporations are shutting down conservative voices online.
And entertainers are marketing President Trump's supporters as uncool. Sir Paul McCartney was the latest to jump on this bandwagon with a new tune.
"Colleges are not turning out educated people but rather conformists to socialism. Too many universities serve as re-education camps. The best part is when the indoctrinated leave campus they are saddled with debt by their government. Then they go out and push socialism, which would mean even more government.
"Colleges replaced the physical sciences and the scientific method with climate change. Anyone who questions the conclusions already drawn are heretics." . . .
6 Questions About The Sexual Assault Allegations Against Judge Brett Kavanaugh
Daily Wire . . . "Originally, Ford contacted Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-CA), who sent Ford’s letter on to Feinstein.
"Kavanaugh has said this never happened. “I categorically and unequivocally deny this allegation. I did not do this back in high school or at any time,” he said. Judge says the same. Judge told The Weekly Standard, “I can recall a lot of rough-housing with guys. It was an all-boys school, we would rough-house with each other. I don’t remember any of that stuff going on with girls.” He strongly denied witnessing an attempted assault.
"On its face, the allegations aren’t non-credible. Ford has come forward, and she’s told a story with specifics. But serious questions remain. Here are six:" . . .

WATCH JOHN KERRY: Sue Trump for Deaths Caused by Weather . . . "Kerry criticized President Trump in his best elitist voice for the policies in North Korea and Europe. This is bad form on the part of the former secretary of state. We’ve come to expect sour grapes from the former Obama administration elitist.
“ 'What is happening is the sloppiness of the diplomacy that is going on with Kim Jong-un, the sloppiness of his reckless statements in Europe at a time when Europe is already weakened somewhat, and it matters to us more than ever since the end of World War II. I mean, these things matter, enormously, and we’ve got to fight for them.”
"Kerry spoke about the perceived division then and now in America. of course, he spoke about himself…I, I, I:
“ 'I was arrested for civil disobedience and demonstrating against the war, so it was divisive and I certainly earned some enemies for a lifetime through that experience. And we saw some of them come to the forefront in ’04, that’s what that was about. That wasn’t about my record. It was about them being angry I opposed the war and told the truth.' ”
CNN's Tapper gives up trying to get an answer from Ocasio-Cortez on health care costs
When liberals use the word "investments", hang on your wallets.
Rick Moran "Is the democratic socialist candidate for Congress, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, about to become the dumbest congressman in the House? Viewing this interview with CNN's Jake Tapper regarding the $40-trillion cost of her radical left agenda, she's certainly in the running.
"An exasperated Tapper finally gave up trying to get any kind of coherent answer about how much her socialist schemes would cost the taxpayer, saying, "I'm assuming I'm not going to get an answer for that other $38 trillion."
"Here's the video of the interview. Ocasio-Cortez doesn't appear to be dodging the question as much as she doesn't understand what Tapper is asking." . . .
. . . "Both Ocasio-Cortez and Bernie Sanders have referred to those "savings" as significant. They aren't. Tapper's question about how we pay for the other $38 trillion goes over her head.
"I'm being kind saying she's a dunce rather than a liar. In order to lie effectively, a politician must be informed enough to fashion a plausible fib. The depthlessness of her intellect should be embarrassing to her socialist colleagues but won't be because they're as stupid as she is."
I'd have preferred the word "ignorant". TD
More discussions on Judge Kavanaugh and Ford
Contact your Senator (if s/he is a Republican) and tell your Senator not to go wobbly on this one. There’s a strong likelihood that it’s a time bomb, put into place six years ago, and exploding now, sending defamatory falsehoods flying all over the place. Bookworm RoomProfessor accusing Kavanaugh is radical SJW with some damning student reviews
It’s true that Bill Clinton’s liberal ‘90s apologists justified his sexual misconduct with the claim “Character doesn’t matter.” It nonetheless does, and since Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hopes are being influenced by accusations that may speak to his character, it’s only fair to examine the character of his accuser. And this woman, Palo Alto University psychology professor Christine Blasey Ford, is a radical social-justice warrior with some damning student reviews — including one from a person who wrote “I am honestly scared of her.” . . .
Rebecca Diserio tweets:
Replying to @MissMarple2 and 2 others. . . "So has Kavanaugh gotten on Ford’s bad side by expressing conservative ideas? Probably. And even if her allegations are true, I very much doubt she’d have come forward had Kavanaugh stayed on her good side by being a leftist reprobate in the mold of Slick Willie or Chappaquiddick Ted Kennedy. For a good example of such situational sexual mores, note that liberal reporter Nina Burleigh actually said in 1998 about B. Clinton, “I’d be happy to give him [oral sex] just to thank him for keeping abortion legal.' ”
Both of my sons had her at CSF....my son who just became a Deputy Sheriff (LA County) said "She's crazy." Harped & attacked kids who argued for conservative values...both my sons withdrew from her class after two weeks...her bias was way worse than most SJW professors
Socio-Political-Journal: Feinstein's a Disgrace! California Professor CHRISTINE FORD Claims Kavanaugh Sexually Assaulted Her'
For a Senior Senator to pull a stunt like this to promote resistance against a sitting president and wait to publish this wild accusation from a Psycho-Professor from California is hysterical. And this is the party that wants to take back the power from the American Electorate by any means possible.Is the accusation against Kavanaugh the culmination of a set-up from 2012?
"By now you’ve all heard that Christine Blasey Ford is the woman accusing Kavanaugh of attacking her 35 years ago, a claim he strenuously and absolutely denies. Her story is a bizarre pastiche of precise details and huge memory holes. It’s also got a big lie planted right in the middle, which is Ford’s claim that she always meant to be private and only went public now because she couldn’t hide anymore.
"That’s bull crap. The moment Ford sent a letter to a Democrat pol, she knew with absolute certainty that this would be a big deal, that her name would emerge, and that she’d become the Democrats’ new darling.
"But this post is going to focus on one of the more weird things about Ford’s accusation against Kavanaugh, which is the fact her therapist’s notes date from 2012: . . ."Dick Durbin Calls to Delay Kavanaugh Vote Because of #MeToo Claim, Gets Nuked By Best Person Ever Has the name "Tricky Dickie" been taken already?
Ford's portrayal of Catholic schoolboys gone wild doesn't stack up to my experience at all – nor does it stack up to the experience of the 65 women who say Kavanaugh never acted like that. Those women I find believable.Also from Ms. Showalter: What really is the Democrats' endgame in derailing Kavanaugh? . . . "What is their real endgame, then? Probably to delay, delay, delay the nomination process so that it spills over into the next term – the one where they think they will finally win the Senate." . . .
The Federalist: Why The GOP Should Confirm Kavanaugh In Spite Of This Last-Minute Accusation . . . "Republicans in the Senate have to hold fast here. Don’t surrender to this. Confirm a good man and good jurist to our highest court. If Democrats thought these claims were viable, they would have brought them up during the confirmation hearings. They don’t and they didn’t. Confirm Kavanaugh and let the Democrats prove it was a mistake." . . .
And this guy is considered a Republican! Senate Jeff Flake Demands Delay on Kavanaugh Vote After Allegations Surface . . . "Since Flake couldn’t win the Republican primary in his state, and because he’s on the outs with the President, he’s now trying to upend his agenda, starting with the confirmation vote of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court."
. . . Does the climate in Arizona do this to Republicans?

Kavanaugh Accuser Comes Forward And Claims To Have Passed A Polygraph
Maxine Waters, the New Face of the Democrat** Party
If Waters is the best the Democrats have now, they are in serious trouble. Are they incapable of finding an ethical leader who doesn’t sound unhinged? The average Democrat doesn’t want someone that nutty representing them. Waters may represent the viewpoints of Antifa and the radical left, but she is scaring away the normal people left in the party. Which is a good thing for Republicans. |
Ian Macfarlane toon |
Rachel Alexander "A big part of the reason Democrats are fleeing their party in the #WalkAway movement is because of leadership like Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.). The 80-year-old lawmaker has been in office since 1991, representing large parts of south-central Los Angeles and surrounding areas. She is best known for corruption and hyperbole. In recent years, she has escalated her public appearances representing Democrats. In June, President Trump declared, “The face of the Democrats is now Maxine Waters.”
Her notorious public life started back in 1992, when she called President H.W. Bush a racist. In 2004, an article in The Los Angeles Times revealed that Waters used her position to help companies, candidates and causes. They then turned around and did business with her family members, earning the family more than $1 million. If she had been a Republican member of Congress, she would have been prosecuted.
"The left-leaning Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington listed Waters as one of the most corrupt members of Congress in 2005, 2006, 2009 and 2011. The House Ethics Committee accused her of at least one ethical violation in 2010 for helping a bank receive federal aid. Her husband was a stockholder and former director of the bank, and the bank’s executives were major contributors to her campaigns. The bank received $12 million in TARP funds." . . .
News Media: Maxine Waters and today's Twilight Zone episode
"I didn't have to watch Rod Serling this week. I just have to read this news story about Representative Maxine Waters, AKA The Impeachment Lady!
"Check this out:
Mad Maxine Waters is a leader worthy of honor, according to the National Newspaper Publishers Association.The group honored the California congresswoman with a "National Leadership Award" on Friday, according to Diversity Inc.During her acceptance, Waters denounced President Trump, prompting applause from the audience of media leaders.
"This is embarrassing, especially the part about the audience of media people breaking into applause.
"It's further embarrassing because Representative Waters has not shown signs of leadership. On the contrary, she is a partisan demagogue telling people what they want to hear.
"It would be leadership if Waters would make responsible statements, such as pushing back on reckless talk of impeachment or saying something responsible about black-on-black crime.

Democrats Want Their Pound of Kavanaugh Flesh
They want to make sure that, if confirmed, he’s damaged goods in the public eye. (And in the eyes of his family. TD)
John Fund at NR
"The 27-year-old “Anita Hill” strategy of digging for dirt on a Supreme Court nominee didn’t work with Clarence Thomas back in 1991. But desperate times for liberals call for desperate measures.
"Just as with Anita Hill, no doubt it took a concentrated effort of importuning by a host of liberal Senate staffers and interest-group partisans to wrest from another college professor a last-minute allegation of sexual misbehavior designed to sink a Supreme Court appointment at the eleventh hour.
"Christine Blasey Ford, a 51-year-old professor at Palo Alto University in California, has confirmed to the Washington Post her account that when she and Brett Kavanaugh were in high school in the 1980s, he pinned her to a bed. Ford told the Post that Kavanaugh “groped her over her clothes, grinding his body against hers and clumsily attempting to pull off her one-piece bathing suit and the clothing she wore over it.”
“ 'I thought he might inadvertently kill me,” Ford said. “He was trying to attack me and remove my clothing.” Nonetheless, she was able to free herself and leave the house unmolested. At the time, Kavanaugh and Mark Judge, the friend she alleges was with him were both students at Georgetown Preparatory School.
"Judge told The Weekly Standard last week that the allegation against Kavanaugh is “just absolutely nuts.” A total of 65 women who knew the judge in high school sent a letter to the Senate last Friday stating, “He has always treated women with decency and respect.”
"As Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Chuck Grassley pointed out: “Judge Kavanaugh’s background has been thoroughly vetted by the FBI on six different occasions throughout his decades of public service, and no such allegation ever surfaced.” Perhaps also of note is that Ford seems to have airbrushed all politics out of her online profile, including her professional bio on LinkedIn, though according to public records she has made small contributions to the Democratic National Committee the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, and the Friends Of Bernie Sanders.
"For her part, Ford says never since spoken with Kavanaugh and never mentioned any such incident to anyone until 2012; it came up at then, when the 45-year-old was having relationship therapy. The notes of Ford’s therapist mention an incident with students who became “highly respected and high-ranking members of society in Washington,” but they do not mention any names." . . .

Judge Brett Kavanaugh's anonymous accuser has a name: Christine Ford, she donates to the Democrat party
I do not know the truth of this incident, but I do know the character of those Democrats who would release something of this sort. If they can stall this until after elections in the hope that Democrats will take back Congress they plan to turn this into a Clarence Thomas-Robert Bork hearing. They must not win! TD
Christine Ford Signed Letter Against Trump Border Policy
Red State Watcher "Christine Ford, Judge Brett Kavanaugh's accuser has came forward claiming “sexually assaulted.” She teaches in Palo Alto.
Christine Ford Signed Letter Against Trump Border Policy
. . . "It’s signed Christine Blasey, PhD, psychologist. Blasey is Christine Blasey Ford’s maiden name.
The letter was used as an exhibit in a lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union to end the family separations policy. The lawsuit against ICE demanded family reunification. You can read it here.
Red State Watcher "Christine Ford, Judge Brett Kavanaugh's accuser has came forward claiming “sexually assaulted.” She teaches in Palo Alto.
"Ford has donated money to the Democratic National Committee (DNC), Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), and Friends Of Bernie Sanders.
"From foxnews.com
...."The woman accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault came forward with her explosive allegations on Sunday, saying the supposed attack "derailed me substantially for four or five years" and claiming that the episode rendered her "unable to have healthy relationships with men.". . .
...."The woman, Christine Ford, is a professor at Palo Alto University, according to The Washington Post, which published her account on Sunday. Her decision to go public caps a whirlwhind week that began when Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., sent shockwaves through Washington by releasing a statement saying she turned over information about Kavanaugh from an anonymous accuser to the FBI.
"Ford, a 51-year-old registered Democrat who has published in academic journals and trains students in clinical psychology, described the alleged incident on Sunday, saying it occurred at a Maryland house gathering. Ford claimed she headed upstairs to a bathroom when she was suddenly pushed onto a bed, as rock-and-roll music blared.
"However, Ford told The Post she did not recall exactly who owned the house, how she came to be at the house, or how the gathering was arranged. She remembered only that the house was in Montgomery County, near a country club, and that parents were not present."
Feinstein hopes to inoculate Ford with this statement, of which there is this excerpt only:
. . .
. . .
Power Line has this statement:
The Weekly Standard has just published two short pieces responding to Democratic talking points about the after-hours Democratic hit on Judge Kavanaugh by ranking (and now rank) minority Judiciary Committee member Dianne Feinstein. First, Virginia Hume explains how the letter rising to Judge Kavanaugh’s defense came together in the immediate aftermath of the hit becoming public. Despite the lyin’ Dems and their idiot parrots, according to Ms. Hume, it was not preassembled for the occasion (although it probably should have been).Then John McCormack reports on the other man named along with Judge Kavanaugh in Feinstein’s hit. McCormack identifies him as Mark Judge, well known to us as a frequent contributor to Law & Liberty. According to McCormack, Judge “strongly den[ies] that any such incident ever occurred.” McCormack quotes Judge: “It’s just absolutely nuts. I never saw Brett act that way.”About That Letter From Women in Support of Brett Kavanaugh; "I signed it. Here's how it went down."

Kyrsten Sinema’s Anti-War Group Portrayed American Soldiers As Skeletons Waging ‘US Terror’
Daily Caller
So we can see that Sinema opposes Rep McSally on at least two different levels.
"Rep. Kyrsten Sinema, the Democratic nominee for Senate in Arizona, led an anti-war group that portrayed American soldiers as skeletons waging “terror” in the Middle East.
Local to Global Justice, a group Sinema co-founded, promoted a 2003 anti-Iraq War protest using flyers that read: “You can help us push back U.S. terror in Iraq and the Middle East.”
The flyers depicted three menacing skeletons, including a gun-toting soldier, looming over a crowd of protesters.

"A local anarchist group also participated in the protest, according to CNN, which first reported on the inflammatory flyers.
“ 'Kyrsten comes from a military family and is very proud of her record supporting Arizona’s servicemembers, veterans, and their families,” Sinema spokeswoman Helen Hare told CNN. (RELATED: Sinema Fought For Loophole Protecting Men Caught With Child Prostitutes)
