Or do we still have a two-tier system of justice?
Why doesn't Kavanaugh OFFER to take a lie detector test?

During her testimony, Christine Ford said that she was introduced to Brett Kavanaugh at the Columbia Country Club. She also said that she had gone to 4 or 5 other parties where Brett was present.

I wonder if any other witnesses have confirmed any of this.

CBS radio

The news reader said, "President Trump grudgingly approved another FBI investigation at the grudging request of Sen. Jeff Flake."

He should have said, "President Trump approved another FBI investigation at the request of Sen. Jeff Flake." Facts, not feeeeeelinngs.


This is why elite media is dying. Now I have to find a different source of news. Probably listen online since the CBS station was the only all news station in my city, as far as I know.
I did a search on this yesterday and all that came up were MSM websites with video links and headlines/comments that were negative leaning to Kavanaugh. Blatant bias search results on the part of google. The medium is the message.

Isn't it incredulous that the left castigate a white male, for anything supposed offense they are accused of, as being the most vile, atrocious life altering thing, but when the leftist Antifa, Maxine Waters calls for violence and commits violence against Trump supporters, they are just "protesting"?

Ryan Grim, the first to report her name claims he did not get her name from Feinstein
Ok. I watched that part and I think you misheard it because there are overlapping voices at that time--


Kelly says "why WOULDN'T Feinstein asked Kavanaugh about the allegation in their face to face and NOT mentioned who made the accusation"...
Kelly DID. NOT. SAY that Feinstein did ask Kavanaugh about an anonymous letter accusing him of assault....

Yes, disturbing. But at least it won't be confidential. This means that senators can share with the public, if needed.

The FBI will not be conducting any lie detector tests with any of these people.

Conflict of interest? How about the conflict of interest involved in ONLY having Grassley's staffers investigate Kavanaugh? One of those staffers tweeted that he was "unfazed and determined, we will confirm Kavanaugh"

Why you would condone an investigation led by a partisan staffer who admits that they will confirm Kavanaugh but criticize Feinstein for recommending an attorney to Ford strikes me as 'curious' to say the least.
