The FBI doesn't have jurisdiction. The local/state authorities do. The accusers need to file a police report with the appropriate local/state authorities to have their allegations investigated. So far, they have not. Why not?

Polling of women have overwhelmingly supported Kavanaugh after this circus has ensued.
"How long does it take to prepare to tell the truth, while you hold the nation hostage?" PRICELESS response from a woman interviewed.


Women are PO'ed that they have set women back decades over this false accusation.
Making it that much harder for legitimate claims to be taken seriously.

I bet she would never show.
This should be brutal.





What is she going to say? Can she say with certainty that it was Kavanough? or will she just say something happened and I'm sure he was at the party wherever and whenever that was...



and when he takes the stand what will he say? I don't recall being at that party wherever and whenever Ford claims it was held....





The thing is all she has to do is place a bit of a question into a handful of Senators that though the charges are cloudy and questionable that it is possible it could have happened and Kavanough is done.


The only question I have if he is denied the Supreme Court if the SJW's will go after him to make him step down from his current position?

You may be right.

I don't know if he is guilty or innocent either, no one does, only he and that woman know the truth, but this crap has to stop, it's becoming and insult to the intelligence of our society.

I've had people grab my butt in public, and I turned around and slapped the hell out of them....I've had a man put me up against a car, and wouldn't stop, and I kicked him in the family jewels....if you don't want trouble, stay away from it, and dress appropriately....stop teasing men and expecting them to be able to stop, especially when they've been drinking....if it were up to me, and I was a dean at a college, I'd put some new rules in place...good clean fun, is not hurting others....against their will....
What decade are you living in?

How about teaching your sons about consent and stop giving them a free pass for behavior like you described?

Probably because it's way beyond the statute of limitations.

Of course the FBI have jurisdiction. They're the FBI.

For a security clearance? If so, what level?

What woman in her right mind would allow another woman to be drugged and raped again and again?



I would say she is guilty of something for letting it happen.



I can't believe that if these rape parties were going on that the Police would have never been alerted. We are talking about teenage girls here.





I think it would be so great if Kavanough turned the tables on Ford and comes clean that he does remember the night in question and it was a drunken Ford that threw herself at him and he pushed her away which infuriated her and this is her revenge.
