"In the coming days, Ford's decision to send a letter to Rep. Anna G. Eshoo, a House member with zero jurisdiction over or authority to investigate presidential nominations, rather than Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who has explicit jurisdiction, is going to get a lot more scrutiny."

"A plain reading of 18 USC 1001 suggests that in the matter of a specific presidential nomination pending before the U.S. Senate, statements made to a House member on that matter may not be covered by the statute's prohibition on false statements."

FEINSTEIN NEVER HAD THE LETTER! FORD SENT THE LETTER TO HER CONGRESSWOMAN BECAUSE SHE KNEW IF IT WAS SENT TO FEINSTEIN, SHE WOULD BE UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY!

THE HOUSE HAS ZERO OVERSIGHT OR INVOLVEMENT OVER SCOTUS NOMINEES, NONE, NADA, ZILCH!

After watching this debacle unfold and blossom over the last week or so, I’m making these predictions:

1. Professor Ford will never testify.

2. Judge Kavanaugh will get a positive vote and assume a place on the Supreme Court.

Feel free to webassassinate me if these predictions are wrong.

She did not send the congresswoman a letter. She called her office to setup a meeting.

Are women capable of lying about sexual assaults? Just ask the Duke lacrosse team if you think they don’t. (Crystal Gail Mangum is a woman from Durham, North Carolina, who is best known for making false allegations of rape against lacrosse players in the 2006 Duke lacrosse case.)
