Re: SCOTUS
Chips -- Presumably the strategy for Avenatti is to get enough questions raised so that Senate Judiciary is finally forced to ask for an FBI investigation. From that perspective, seems like a very effective document. Would not be surprised if another part of the strategy will be a media interview t...

We Didn't Call It Rape: https://slate.com/human-interest/2018/09/kavanaugh-judge-prep-school-parties.html This was written by an alum of a DC all-girls prep school from the 80s. Written after the New Yorker article but before before Ms. Swetnick came forward. Pretty chilling/telling stuff when view...

Re: SCOTUS
But the Ds may get what they want - delay, delay, delay. The risk is that this will come back to bite them big time if they don't take the Senate, and RGB can't hang on. Not to mention the damage it is/will do to the #MeToo movement. Don't forget that Gorsuch was also a well-to-do Gtown Prep guy of...

Re: SCOTUS
Back here in the real world, Avenatti took on Cohen and Trump and Cohen testified as part of his guilty plea that Trump asked him to commit crimes. Nonetheless, Avenatti raises all kinds of red flags. He is a curse and a blessing. He is a wildcard. However, he is very good at what he does. The Trum...

Re: SCOTUS
Swetnick's story certainly has some obvious weaknesses. Like how she says that she went to a bunch of house parties where girls were incapacitated and then gang raped? If you were a girl, would you ever attend a second party like this after seeing that the first time? Swetnick's story is that she w...

Re: SCOTUS
Jeff Flake gave an interesting but seemingly pointless speech on the floor an hour or so ago. Flake says he does not believe this is some conspiracy some "con job" on the part of the democrats. He clearly wants the heat turned down. Frankly he by himself could end this. Which may have been...
Re: SCOTUS
Just saw Bill Crystal, republican publisher, say he thinks the problem is the Senate timeline. He sees no reason why the timeline needs to be the case. This all needs to be investigated he claims. He is not a Trumpnista though. Can he still claim to be a Republican?? Bill Clinton is probably glued t...

Re: SCOTUS
So if the latest one is true, that leads to several quick questions. She implies that this was rampant, it was at "many parties". Why couldn't the FBI turn any of this up? Are their background checks that superficial? There should be tons of witnesses, both male and female. Is the whole c...

Re: SCOTUS
Now comments like this terrify me! The very same folks who scream about totalitarianism, are all ready to line up for guilty until proven innocent. And do it, over and over again. Even after the flaw in the reasoning is pointed out, dems are doubling down on the notion of guilty until proven innoce...

Re: SCOTUS
The age of this BS is coming to an end, and good riddance. You really believe that? If anything, things have gotten even more complicated due to the politics involved... so now we'll have the age of Prove You Didn't Do It.

Hoodat -- THE SENATE HEARING IS NOT A COURT OF LAW. If it was the 11 dwarfs couldn't get away with the turd they have tried to pull. Innocent until proven guilty only applies in a court room. You should know that. Men have been using that BS for years to get away with this turd against women. It's a...

You might want to check with Gabrielle Giffords. Being shot in the head is a little more serious than Ted Cruz missing his dinner. :roll: No politician was calling for that from the right.

Now it's three Yale law school grads who vouched for the virgin, now calling for an investigation. Seems they are not so sure now about their original endorsement.

Re: SCOTUS
A tale of date rape, it may educate Trumpnista as to why girls don't report it contemporaneously. Probably won't help as my sense is a lot of our Trumpnista do feel they are entitled to assault any women at anytime, just like Orange Duce. It's a feature, not a bug. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opi...
