You are assuming the judge is a "defendant"? You are a U.S. citizen, right.

Mark Judge should have been subpoenaed to appear in front of the Judiciary Committee since he was named in the issue and wrote a book about being a Gen X drunk. How they didn't include it proves how much of a Republican ramrod this has been.

Mark Judge has already submitted to the Senate Committee and gave statement under oath.


During the hearing last week, Sen. Grassley said:


I have something to submit for the record. We received three statements under penalty of felony from three witnesses identified by Dr. Ford: Mark Judge, Leland Keyser and Patrick Smyth. All three denied any knowledge of the incident, or a gathering described by Dr. Ford. Without objection, I'll enter in the record.

See what I mean? Trump ripping people off: Fine. Trump lying: Fine. Trump assaulting women: Fine. Trump saying he and the NK dictator are "in love": Not a problem. Trump adoring Putin (ex-KGB who still murders his opponents): Fine.

What problem? I don't see a problem. It's just you "nanny state liberal Democrats." (And just for the record: it's those "nanny state liberal Democrats" who keep some of the red states from collapsing).

Cult.

Gotta hand it to FOX, though: all these many years of brainwashing their viewers to despise all Democrats and "liberals" has really paid off.

Judiciary Committee Refers Potential False Statements for Criminal Investigation


If the Demcrats take the house and senate, i hope they open full investigations into the whole process used to try to put Kavanaugh on on SC. Even if Kavanaugh fails they need to chase this down to stop future abuses of power like we have seen from Repubs over the last 8 years.

Kavanaugh's judicial demeanor has been on full display for 15 years as a Federal circuit Court judge.


there is no need for you to damn his entire career for how he reacted when he was being falsely accused of being a serial gang raper.

Judiciary Committee Refers Potential False Statements for Criminal Investigation
I have no pony in this show. Yes, its true, I would rather a ultra conservative judge not sit on the SC because I do not agree with his social platforms. I also have stated that I do not believe anything has proven so far that he should not be given the seat. Listen, I voted for DJT (because I hated HRC more than life itself admittedly to an unhealthy degree). I voted for both Republicans and Democrats in the last local election. I really do not side with either party. In my mind, both are mostly rotten to the core.


All that said, I am not unhappy Grassley has tasked the FBI to open criminal investigations into anyone who provided false information. Good. It should start with Swetnick and end with Kavanuagh. If the FBI finds any of them provided false information they should be punished.

Kavanaugh's judicial demeanor, clearly, was never put to the test. As we can now see, it's quite thin.

Wrong again.

Perhaps, what is really happening is many, like myself, are independently coming to the same conclusion about Kavanaugh.


Yes of course. lol


Whether you got it from the internet or TV doesn't matter. You've all decided you're not going to take him down with these unsubstantiated allegations so you have to move to the next item on your list. All at the same time though.


Stop him, any way you can, no matter what. The allegations were full of crap and so is this new talking point regarding stoicism in the face of public and brutal unsubstantiated destruction of your reputation. It's not a logical argument it's just all you have left.
