Thread by @KimStrassel: "1) More big breaking news, which further undercuts the Ford accusation
Thread Reader ^ | 09/22/2018 | Kimberley Strassel

1) More big breaking news, which further undercuts the Ford accusation, as well as media handling of it. A source has given me the email that WaPo reporter Emma Brown sent to Mark Judge, one person Ford claims was at the party. This email is dated Sunday, Sept. 16, 2018....
7) So first, huge problem: This was just a week ago, and we have Ford giving two different accounts of who was present. Four boys. No, three boys, one girl. Either way, therapist notes from 2012 definitively say four boys, which Ford didn't dispute. But now... a girl!
8) Other problem: WaPo's reporting. Reporter has for a week had the names of those Ford listed as present. One is a woman. Yet it writes a story saying FOUR BOYS. Why? Maybe a mistake. But if so, why did WaPo never correct that narrative?

The “plan” was that Repubs, being the usual idiots they have been, would immediately withdraw the Judge’s nomination at the first whiff of scandal. Only this time the Repubs had Trump in their corner, a guy who actually has a set, and who does not shy away from a fight. I don’t doubt that the Dems were somewhat shocked that the Repubs didn’t withdraw the nomination, and have been making up a case for rape on the fly ever since.

It’s exhausting Mags. There’s so much behind-the-scenes crap on both sides that no one can keep up.

This morning I’m struck by how one can be at a party with only 5 people, Kavanaugh being one, and yet I’ve never met Kavanaugh.

‘The Resistance’ is mainstream Democratism.
The only difference between these folk and the really rabid ones is they are a bit inhibited and don’t have the initiative to take action by themselves, but will follow the herd when they get the signal. However, some of them will turn rabid just from continued exposure to Democrat media and social media groupthink.

There is zero legitimacy to her story. We’ve been getting told these kids ran in the same circles and that these girls were best friends. This female friend doesn’t just deny this party, she denies ever knowing Kavenaugh at all.

That’s odd.

At this point, Ford’s nut to go under oath.

That means she will back out on Thursday and attempt another renegotiation.

She and her handlers want a story that says white males refused to sit down with her.

They forget how many women are mothers of sons

None of this matters. The Dems are playing the Republicans like a fiddle and showing off their impotence and inability to lead.

Grassley and Mitchell are letting a woman with no credibility jerk the entire Senate around in carrying out its most important responsibility (advise and consent).

All Republicans in office more than 2 years have to go, to be replaced by real ones.

Is this a real teeet by Michael Avenetti? There are so many memes and just fake stuff on the internet. If it is an accurate tweet from him, Republicans should put it in an ad together with Harry Reid lying, by saying that Romney paid no taxes for ten years, and later saying .... It worked.

How can Romney be against Trump?

I’m sure your are right about the Trump haters. No argument there. My thoughts this morning are turning to the coveted undecided, those voters still on the fence about who to vote for in mid terms. Could the dem destruction game of Kavanaugh be enough to get them to vote AGAINST dems in November?

“How did he do this, since the music and party were on the first floor? Did he carry a remote in his back pocket?”

This was the 1980s: He was carrying a boombox on his shoulder.

“I don’t know of a single governing body whose building code for residential dwellings would allow the installation of a lock on an interior door that cannot be opened from the INSIDE.”

I agree. But, then again, maybe the homeowner was a perv, and was into holding young girls captive. You know, like that weirdo in Ohio or Pennsylvania that kept those women confined in his basement for years. I mean, we ARE talking about Washington, D.C. here.

“How do you “slip in on the sly” to crash a party with only four other people attending it? Did she think they wouldn’t notice her?”

Stop asking sensible questions. We’re talking about Democrats.

You are not alone in believing she won’t testify. As for me, I think she will and the dems will do their Damn best to protect her and make her appear victimized.

They’re always blowing holes in the sides of ships. Remember the Cole.

This ship, however, will be a pleasure to watch founder.

Dear Mrs. Ballsy-Ford. After having investigated your claim thoroughly, we have concluded that it is five pounds of sh!t in a two pound bag. Please pound sand and don’t ever contact us again. Sincerely, Sherlock Holmes.

And, she never mentions to her friend who was at the party that she was assaulted there? Even over 30 years of friendship?

And, knowing she was the only girl there besides her?

I sure WANT to see this story told on the nationwide Tee Vee.

Full exoneration for Kavanaugh. Except for a few sour grapes for the committed communists.
