Kavanaugh interview and letter:“I want a fair process where I can defend my integrity. . . "; "I Will Not be Intimidated Into Withdrawing"

Legal Insurrection  "God bless Brett Kavanaugh and his family who are under attack by Democrats.
"Earlier Monday, Kavanaugh wrote a letter making clear he is not intimidated by the political campaign to destroy his character nor will he be pushed to withdraw from the process.
Monday evening Judge Kavanaugh and his wife sat down with Fox News’ Marcha MacCallum for a public interview.
"Some snippets of the interview:" . . .



"Kavanaugh understands that the implications of caving reach well beyond his nomination to the Supreme Court.
"A few excerpts published in USA Today:
“The truth is I’ve never sexually assaulted anyone, in high school or otherwise,” he said according to an excerpt released by Fox News. “I am not questioning and have not questioned that perhaps Dr. Ford at some point in her life was sexually assaulted by someone at some place, but what I know is I’ve never sexually assaulted anyone.”
“We’re looking for a fair process where I can be heard and defend my integrity my lifelong record,” he said, according to an excerpt. “My lifelong record of promoting dignity and equality for women starting with the women who knew me when I was 14 years old. I’m not going anywhere.
“I want a fair process where I can defend my integrity, and I know I’m telling the truth. I know my lifelong record, and I’m not going to let false accusations drive me out of this process. I have faith in God and I have faith in the fairness of the American people.”
"Monday, Trump stood by Kavanaugh saying (USA Today ctd):" . . .
“There’s a chance that this could be one of the single-most unfair, unjust things to happen to a candidate for anything,” Trump said following a meeting Monday afternoon at the United Nations. “In my opinion, it’s totally political … Brett Kavanaugh is an absolutely outstanding person. Hopefully he will be confirmed quickly.”
Judge Kavanaugh's letter:  ‘I Will Not be Intimidated Into Withdrawing’
“The last-minute character assassination will not succeed.”  PDF: The letter:
Dear Chairman Grassley and Ranking Member Feinstein: When I testified in front of the Senate three weeks ago, I explained my belief that fair process is foundational to justice and to our democracy. At that time, I sat before the Senate Judiciary Committee for more than 31 hours and answered questions under oath. I then answered more questions at a confidential session. The following week, I responded to more than 1,200 written questions, more than have been submitted to all previous Supreme Court nominees combined. Only after that exhaustive process was complete did I learn, through the news media, about a 36- year-old allegation from high school that had been asserted months earlier and withheld from me throughout the hearing process. First it was an anonymous allegation that I categorically and unequivocally denied. Soon after the accuser was identified, I repeated my denial on the record and made clear that I wished to appear before the Committee. I then repeated my denial to Committee investigators—under criminal penalties for false statements. All of the witnesses identified by Dr. Ford as being present at the party she describes are on the record to the Committee saying they have no recollection of any such party happening. I asked to testify before the Committee again under oath as soon as possible, so that both Dr. Ford and I could both be heard. I thank Chairman Grassley for scheduling that hearing for Thursday. Last night, another false and uncorroborated accusation from 35 years ago was published. Once again, those alleged to have been witnesses to the event deny it ever happened. There is now a frenzy to come up with something—anything—that will block this process and a vote on my confirmation from occurring. These are smears, pure and simple. And they debase our public discourse. But they are also a threat to any man or woman who wishes to serve our country. Such grotesque and obvious character assassination—if allowed to succeed—will dissuade competent and good people of all political persuasions from service. As I told the Committee during my hearing, a federal judge must be independent, not swayed by public or political pressure. That is the kind of judge I will always be. I will not be intimidated into withdrawing from this process. The coordinated effort to destroy my good name will not drive me out. The vile threats of violence against my family will not drive me out. The last minute character assassination will not succeed. I have devoted my career to serving the public and the cause of justice, and particularly to promoting the equality and dignity of women. Women from every phase of my life have come forward to attest to my character. I am grateful to them. I owe it to them, and to my family, to defend my integrity and my name. I look forward to answering questions from the Senate on Thursday. Sincerely, Brett M. Kavanaugh 

Lawyers for Brett Kavanaugh and Dr. Christine Ford Have Hillary Clinton Connections

TMZ


"The lawyers for Brett Kavanaugh and Dr. Christine Ford both have strong Hillary Clinton connections.
"It's interesting ... Dr. Ford's lawyer, Debra Katz, was a campaign fundraiser for Clinton during her 2016 Presidential campaign. She's pictured back in August 2016, with Clinton leaving a fundraiser at a private home in Southampton, New York.
"Katz famously represented a University of Colorado student who claimed she was the victim of retaliation by the school after she said she was subjected to a sexually hostile academic environment.
With the man who trashed President Bush.
"As for Kavanaugh's lawyer, Beth Wilkinson ... she's a high-powered, Washington D.C. lawyer who represented multiple top Clinton aides involved in the FBI email investigation during the campaign.
"Wilkinson, a long-time Democratic booster, is married to CNN contributor David Gregory (Right).
"Also interesting ... Wilkinson was a prosecutor in the case of Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh and successfully argued for the death penalty.
"Both lawyers are well-regarded in the legal community and fierce advocates." 

How can any reasonable person trust these Democrats over Judge Kavanaugh?

Rick Moran: Kavanaugh's confirmation hinges on support from Susan Collins
Let's hope she doesn't do a McCain on us.
. . . "It comes down to this; no Democratic senator will go out on a political limb and support Kavanaugh unless his confirmation is inevitable. None of those Democrats want to be the vote that puts Kavanaugh over the top. And that means that it will be GOP moderates that hold the balance of power on the nomination.
"Holding only a 51-49 advantage in the senate, Republicans can afford to lose exactly one vote in the nomination fight. In reality, there are still 3 GOP votes up for grabs with the key senator being Maine's Susan Collins.
"The other two senators - Alaska's Lisa Murkowski and Arizona's retiring Jeff Flake - will almost certainly vote with Collins on the nomination. Democrats are aware of this and have initiated an intense pressure campaign to convince - and to threaten - Collins to vote "no.' "  . . . 
Thomas Lifson:  Murkowski backs away from supporting an FBI investigation of charges against Kavanaugh  . . . "After seeming to tell national media that she would support an FBI investigation into the charges against Judge Kavanaugh, she seems to have beaten a hasty retreat. But both statements are couched in vague language, with the first one prominent in national media, and the second one, the retreat, spoken to a far smaller Alaska media outlet, and so far generally ignored by the national mainstream media – even Fox News." . . .

Lloyd Marcus: Nervous about GOP becoming weak-kneed on Kavanaugh
. . . "The Democratic Party and fake news media practically ignored Democrat Ted Kennedy being responsible for the death of Mary Jo Kopechne.  They laughed off the drunken Ted Kennedy-Chris Dodd waitress sandwich sexual assault.  Hillary Clinton led the Bimbo Eruption squad to silence all the women sexually assaulted and raped by serial adulterer and Democrat President Bill Clinton.  Yet Democrats and fake news media are trying to disqualify Kavanaugh for unsubstantiated 36-year-old allegations from high school." . . .

Is this the hill they die on?

Anna L. Stark
"Given the depth of Democrat depravity and reprehensible behavior to date, there is no questioning the level of lewdness the Democrats will stoop to in their poorly contrived attempt to derail Brett Kavanagh."


. . . "For Democrats, their grossly miscalculated strategy of character assassination has fallen woefully short of achieving their desired outcome. Two women, assisted by an army of lawyers, enablers, and far left political operatives crafted narratives that are not only devoid of specific details and factual evidence, but feature no corroborating witnesses. Not surprisingly, all the witnesses named to date have categorically denied the allegations, leaving both of the accusers drowning in a sea of doubt and suspicion. In a bizarre twist of logic, former Michigan governor Jennifer Granholm stated on a CNN panel that no corroborating witnesses absolutely proves the accuser’s allegation to be true. Obviously, Granholm has never set foot in an American courtroom, in which actual evidence and eyewitness testimony is required to prove guilt." . . .

Judge Kavanaugh's accuser in a pink pussy hat

Shad Olson

"Suddenly, that innocent nameless woman accusing a teenaged Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault seems a lot more like a bitter, rabid anti-Trump activist with a political resume, a Palo Alto university job and a pink pussy hat.

"Surprised? Not in the slightest.  Except maybe that radical leftists continue to believe that these kinds of personal smear tactics are effective strategy that doesn’t make them appear desperate and stupid in ways we already know them to be. Case in point, Christine Blasey-Ford. A leftist political activist and tactician posing as a wronged woman emerging spontaneously to loft criminal allegation against a conservative Supreme Court nominee. How original, Anita Hill.
"Sometimes, anonymous accusers are fearful of embarrassment that accompanies public shame and unwanted notoriety. And sometimes, they stay anonymous because they know that once their identity is known, their motivations will be as transparent as their political allegiance.
"No sooner had adolescent-era Brett Kavanaugh’s “sexual assault victim,” gone public than independent outlets let loose with a deluge of background both personal and political that reveal Blasey-Ford to be a pussy hat-wearing anti-Trump protester, a Palo Alto University professor and a high level political activist sporting family ties to Baker-Hostetler, a subsidiary firm of Fusion GPS, the same legal conglomerate responsible for purchasing and assembling the “Dirty Dossier,” on Donald Trump.
Not only that, but her parents once lost a home due to foreclosure in a case presided over at least briefly by, get this: Brett Kavanaugh’s mother.*
"Christine Blasey, as she was identified then, was even proudly quoted in the Mercury News at an event where she donned a pussy-inspired knit ‘brain cap,’ insinuating that leftists are pro-science, while conservatives and libertarians are scientifically illiterate."
*Since determined to be untrue.

Victor Davis Hanson: We Are Living Nineteen Eighty-Four



                We must not just obey Hillary or Barack Obama; we must love them. TD

Victor Davis Hanson
Truth, due process, evidence, rights of the accused: All are swept aside in pursuit of the progressive agenda.  
 "George Orwell’s 1949 dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four is no longer fiction. We are living it right now.

"Google techies planned to massage Internet searches to emphasize correct thinking. A member of the so-called deep state, in an anonymous op-ed, brags that its “resistance” is undermining an elected president. The FBI, CIA, DOJ, and NSC were all weaponized in 2016 to ensure that the proper president would be elected — the choice adjudicated by properly progressive ideology. Wearing a wire is now redefined as simply flipping on an iPhone and recording your boss, boy- or girlfriend, or co-workers.

"But never has the reality that we are living in a surreal age been clearer than during the strange cycles of Christine Blasey Ford’s accusations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.


"In Orwell’s world of 1984 Oceania, there is no longer a sense of due process, free inquiry, rules of evidence and cross examination, much less a presumption of innocence until proven guilty. Instead, regimented ideology — the supremacy of state power to control all aspects of one’s life to enforce a fossilized idea of mandated quality — warps everything from the use of language to private life." . . .

Former DOJ Employee Who Harassed DHS Sec And Was Accused Of Organizing Socialist Protests On Gov’t Time Now Has GoFundMe To Sue Admin  "A Department of Justice employee who helped orchestrate a protest against Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen has been fired and is now asking supporters to donate money for her living expenses and legal fees for a potential lawsuit.
Allison Hrabar’s background was first reported by The Daily Caller News Foundation following an incident where she and other activists chased Nielsen out of a restaurant in June. After the incident, Hrabar told a Washington Examiner reporter that she worked for the federal government and was protected by the First Amendment.

“ 'We aren’t the only ones who can do this. Anyone who sees Kirstjen Nielsen at dinner, anyone who sees anyone who works at DHS and [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] at dinner can confront them like this, and that’s what we hope this will inspire people to do,” . . .

Yale Law Profs Cancel Classes so Students Can Protest Kavanaugh  "Wouldn’t it make more sense to use the topic as a springboard for a legal discussion in class?"

Yale Law School professors teaching an odd lesson
Law & Crime reports that 31 classes were cancelled due to the protests.  Yale Law School students and alumni have organized "sit ins" against Kavanaugh's nomination both on Yale's campus and in Washington, D.C.
"As my friend Ed Lasky wryly notes: "Guilty until proven innocent.  Nice lesson for Yale Law students.' "

For leftists, lying is part of their winning strategy  "As Harry Reid crowed after lying on the Senate floor that Mitt Romney hadn't paid taxes and calling on Romney to prove his innocence: "Romney didn't win, did he?"

Democrats Go Full Authoritarian To Stop Brett Kavanaugh . . .  “ 'Doesn’t Kavanaugh have the same presumption of innocence as anyone else in America?” CNN’s Jake Tapper asked Democratic Sen. Mazie Hirono this past Sunday. “I put his denial in the context of everything that I know about him in terms of how he approaches his cases,” was her unexpectedly honest answer.
"Plainly put, Hirono argues that because Kavanaugh—who earned the highest rating from the ABA during his time on the DC appellate court—has a record of originalist jurisprudence, it’s probable that he’s also a gang-raping sexual pervert and would-be rapist. Hey, CNN’s legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin says the accusations “ring true.” You know the type, right? Wrongthinking white guys." . . .

Brett Kavanaugh's wife receiving violent threats

Here is where I normally post a language advisory for offensive speech (which I have left unedited). But I hope it does offend you for the Kavanaugh's sake when you realize members of their family have to read it, including their children. 
One wonders: is there any way their children would grow up to be Democrats?

Kavanaugh Family Threatened, Federal Agents Take Action
Washington Examiner  . . . "Emails sent to Ashley Kavanaugh are currently being investigated by the U.S. Marshals Service, the official said.
In one email Ashley Kavanaugh received to her work email account this week, the person wrote, “Please tell your rapist, lying, cheating, corrupt bitch of a husband to put a bullet in his ugly fucking skull.”
“My condolences to you for being married to a rapist. Although you probably deserve it,” the email, obtained by the Washington Examiner, continued.A second email sent had the subject line, “Did you know your husband is a rapist?????”“Hey bitch, did you know your husband was a rapist before you married him? Fuck you and your fucking family,” the email read.A third email tells Ashley Kavanaugh to “eat shit.”“Fuck you, rape enabling c**t. Your husband is a liar, thief, rapist, and probably a pedophile. Burn in hell you worthless fucking c**t. May you, your husband and your kids burn in hell you fucking pieces of trash,” the third message said.The three emails directed to Ashley Kavanaugh came from the same account.California professor Christine Blasey Ford accused Brett Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her during a party 36 years ago. Ford said a drunken Brett Kavanaugh pinned her down on a bed, groped her, and tried to take off her clothing.Brett Kavanaugh has categorically denied the accusation.
Ford, too, has received violent threats since she spoke publicly about the alleged incident and has left her home.“As you are aware, she has been receiving death threats, which have been reported to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and she and her family have been forced out of their home,” Ford’s lawyers wrote in an email to staff on the Senate Judiciary Committee. . . .

Jimmy Kimmel Suggests Disgusting Action To Take On Judge Kavanaugh If He Is Confirmed

Big Hollywood  "ABC late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel took the stage on Tuesday and jokingly suggested that his “compromise” to the battle of Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court nomination is to chop off the judge’s “pesky penis,” should he be confirmed.
"Kimmel launched into the Kavanaugh rancor midway through his monologue, noting a New Yorker article published over the weekend in which Deborah Ramirez alleged that as a drunken Yale University freshman, Brett Kavanaugh “exposed himself at a drunken dormitory party.” Ramirez claimed she had “significant gaps in her memories” regarding the alleged encounter. Ramirez’s college best friend also told the paper she “never heard of” the incident in question.
"Jimmy Kimmel cut to a clip of Judge Kavanaugh and his wife’s Fox News interview on Monday, in which the Supreme Court nominee called allegations from Christine Blasey Ford false and explained that he was a virgin in high school and college." . . .

"Kimmel concluded his Kavanaugh monologue with a gruesome suggestion.
“ 'Hear me out on this,” Kimmel began “So Kavanaugh gets confirmed to the Supreme Court, OK? Well, in return we get to cut that pesky penis of his off in front of everyone.' ”
May I assume a "laugh and cheer" sign in the studio lit up after that statement?

Do Democrats have no sense of shame at what they have become?

I will oppose Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination with everything I have, and I hope a bipartisan majority will do the same. The stakes are simply too high for anything less.  Sen. Chuck Schumer
American Thinker
Investor's Business Daily: Will Republicans Surrender To The Dems' Total War Against Kavanaugh?  "Politics of Personal Destruction: Even as Christine Blasey Ford's keeps changing the details of her claimed high school assault by Brett Kavanaugh, a new, even less credible, decades-old accusation emerges. When Democrats sacrificed their ability to filibuster Supreme Court picks, who knew they'd sink this low? How Republicans respond will determine their fate for years to come." . . .

Byron York: The Ford-Kavanaugh hearing took a lot of work to arrange. Democrats want to scrap it  "Here's what baffles Senate Republicans. Democrats on the Judiciary Committee insisted that Brett Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford be given a chance to tell her story. Everybody knows the wrangling that took place over the last week, as Ford's legal team and committee chairman Chuck Grassley negotiated over when Ford would appear and under what circumstances she would testify. Finally, a deal was struck, with all in agreement. Ford is scheduled to testify this Thursday at 10:00 a.m. in Washington.
"But now, Democrats want to throw it all out.
. . . "Are the new protests a prelude to Ford rejecting yet another hearing date? That's not yet clear. But if she does, she'll have the support of Senate Democrats."

Democrats make Joe McCarthy look like an amateur  . . . "As a result of the liberal smear campaign, McCarthy is memorialized by the term "McCarthyism," which is defined as "the use of tactics involving personal attacks on individuals by means of widely publicized indiscriminate allegations especially on the basis of unsubstantiated charges; broadly: defamation of character or reputation through such tactics."

"That's right: the term Democrats developed to smear McCarthy because he was hunting traitors in the U.S. government is a perfect description of the Democrats' and their propaganda arm, the fake news media, treatment of Judge Brett Kavanaugh." . . .


Chicago Tribune: Eviscerating Kavanaugh: Sen. Feinstein, have you no sense of decency?  . . . "Decency was once an important feature of the Democratic Party’s story. Long before Bork became a verb, long before Clarence Thomas was dragged through the mud because a conservative black man proved a profound threat to Democrats, the party held fast to the notion of decency.
"A lack of decency was something to be feared, something to be avoided for the health of the country." . . .
Even if his nomination is confirmed by the Republican majority, the as-yet-unsubstantiated allegation of an attempted high school rape will hang from his neck for as long as he lives. And from the necks of his wife and daughters.


"Everyone knows that the entire Christine Blasey Ford challenge to Judge Brett Kavanaugh is nonsense. Her identified witnesses have deserted her. She can’t remember any precise material fact about it except the identity of the alleged drunken assailant. She was silent for 30 years and then gave a garbled account to a marriage counselor, which differs materially from what she later said publicly. Ford is a political activist of the Left and an ostentatious critic of the current administration—her perfect right, but coupled with the many implausible aspects of the timing of this challenge and the unreasonable belligerence of Ford’s counsel, it raises questions about motive.
"Her account is likely largely or even wholly untrue, as it applies to Kavanaugh, but not necessarily intentionally so. The Democrats sat on this one, as they did the Billy Bush tape two years ago, waiting for the optimal moment to spring it." . . .
. . . ["Creepy porn lawyer Michael Avenatti"] "says he has at least one more complainant against Judge Kavanaugh. "These latest circus acts will cheapen and coarsen the sordid “Stop Kavanaugh” movement—Avenatti is too egregious even for the anti-Trump television networks, as Ramirez is too implausible for the New York Times." . . .
. . . "The burning question is how much time will be required for the sensible majority to be repulsed by the Democratic senators’ escalating Red Queen antics: Richard Blumenthal’s presumption of guilt because the allegation was made by a woman, Kirsten Gillibrand’s assertion of Ford’s truthfulness simply because she made the allegation, and Mazie Hirono’s demand that all American men maintain silence while Kavanaugh is crucified by a deranged ultra-feminist man-hating lynch mob. (Perhaps there are sinister customs in the jungles of the nether islands of Hawaii, Hirono’s state, that were unsuspected until now.)" . . .

This media-enabled Democratic smear campaign simply can't be the standard by which we destroy people.
 . . . "The hearings ricocheted from interesting discussions of judicial philosophy to clownish “I am Spartacus” moments and radical abortion protesters screaming about their love of killing unborn children.


"Only upon completion did Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein release news that she’d sat on a claim of sexual assault for six weeks. The media then began running with uncorroborated and disputed allegations ranging from Christine Blasey Ford saying she thought Kavanaugh was trying to rape her and might kill her to Avenatti suggesting that Kavanaugh is a gang raper.
"Republicans on the Judiciary Committee — in part thanks to Sen. Jeff Flake, cowering in the face of a smear campaign — bent over backwards to accommodate the first accuser, no matter how outlandish her requests to delay the hearing. As was easily predictable, the media and other resistance members put forth additional claims — somehow even less substantiated than the initial one — as the days passed." . . .

. . . The New Yorker’s laughably disreputable Jane Mayer and previously well-regarded Ronan Farrow wrote up a story claiming that a progressive activist recovered a memory of sexual assault only after being prodded by Senate Democrats to do so. Even The New York Times — which doesn’t have a sterling track record when it comes to running with wild accusations — interviewed dozens of people in an attempt to corroborate the allegation and was not able to do so. They found that the accuser Deborah Ramirez had recently told classmates she could not be certain Kavanaugh was the man who she says exposed himself to her." . . .  Read more...

The Kavanaugh Circus Could Destroy the Me Too Movement

National Review

"These are salacious claims launched without verification and wielded by those with no interest in the truth. "



"It's been nearly a year since Ronan Farrow torpedoed the career of Harvey Weinstein, printing in The New Yorker a series of credible accusations that the Hollywood producer had sexually abused several women. 

"His piece touched off a firestorm that led to purges of incredibly powerful men in a variety of industries, finally forcing them to face consequences for their sexual misconduct.

" Last night, though, Farrow and his colleague Jane Mayer did a huge disservice to the Me Too movement by publishing an incredibly thin sexual-abuse allegation against Brett Kavanaugh. That story, a prime example of how some media outlets and left-wing voices have mishandled the accusations against the judge, will likely create a climate in which fewer victims are believed, more innocent men suffer for crimes they didn’t commit, and neutral observers are more inclined to doubt claims of sexual assault. 

"The political circus overwhelming the Kavanaugh confirmation will almost certainly weaken the Me Too movement in the long run by undermining its promise that the truth matters and that it will enable us to obtain justice. 

"The slapdash nature of yesterday’s reporting by Farrow and Mayer encourages readers to cast doubt on this newest accusation. They write of Kavanaugh’s accuser, Deborah Ramirez: “In her initial conversations with The New Yorker, she was reluctant to characterize Kavanaugh’s role in the alleged incident with certainty,” saying she was only willing to go on the record “after six days of carefully assessing her memories and consulting with her attorney,” at which point “she felt confident enough of her recollections.” Their effort to publish this story should’ve stopped right there." . . . Read more...
