Which Senators have called her a liar?

Anita Hill was treated like shite though. That isn't really up for debate.
I see. Lying scumbags now deserve special treatment.

In my opinion, if she doesn't show up on Monday, the vote needs to be held. She was offered a day in court, she decided not to take it, and therefore must suffer through being ignored and treated as a fraud for the rest of her life.


Treated like a fraud if she doesn't appear under oath? Hardly. Mass Media will treat her accusation as completely Truthful.

And some senate Dems are calling Judge Kavanaugh a liar and a rapist.

What's your point?

All stalling tactics to try to prevent the confirmation vote from being held before midterms because Dems think they can win back the senate and block the nomination entirely at that point
They don't need to take the Senate, because they know they won't. You don't give them enough credit.

What they want is to take the House, file impeachment charges. At that point the narrative will be that you can't vote on a SC Justice nominated by a president who has had impeachment charges filed against him.

They could then go to the next step and argue that even if not removed by the Senate, a president who has had charges filed, is too tainted to nominate another Justice.

Well, she is. You know this. I know this. Everyone knows this.

This is political hackery at its finest.

So now that the Scotus is lost and things like 2nd amendment issues will be a 4-4 tie, does that mean that the lower courts rulings will be deferred to for the forseeable future? So basically the 9th Circuit is the new Scotus?

Could they subpoena her dumb arse?


Why would they.

I 100 percent agree that she needs to be given an opportunity to tell her story, before the vote is held.

If she declines that opportunity, she is owed nothing further, and Congress has, in my opinion, no further responsibility.

Surprise, surprise.

She'll probably say she is too busy to testify until after the midterm elections.

Saw on Twitter that her attorney is trying to set conditions for Ford's testimony in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee on Monday. And get this: Ford has yet to agree to appear at the hearing on Monday. Ben Shapiro and a few others are retweeting these reports.


Please let this damn vote happen already, this isn't a damn court of law this is a simple Senate process of confirmation and she had her chance to witness against him at the confirmation hearings, she doesn't automatically get another chance just because of an 11th hour tactic, this is so inefficient on the legislature's part one of the big reasons why I'm a libertarian. If he's rejected, he's rejected and Trump can appoint someone else CMON MAN!

Delay, delay, delay....until the midterms. Delay one week!? Might as well wait two!
This is all about putting enough pressure on that one or two liberal Republican Senator...to create just enough of a shadow of a doubt to change a vote.
We saw this with Moore. They think we're stupid.

She is and you know it. But, you don't care because any lie is acceptable so long as it serves the expansion of the state, eh comrade?
