When did SHE say she met Kavanaugh?

That's strange. An article on the front page of the Billings Gazette this morning said that the
FBI was in the process of interviewing swetnick.

What is shadier?

The majority party waiting until the the night before the hearing of a SCOTUS nominee to dump thousands of documents for Dems to review before the hearing the next day, and for only giving them 10 percent of the documents.

LOL.

I hope this Swetnick character gets a least one TV interview with a reporter that will ask good questions. That should be comic gold.

I believe it's shadier to claim that only "10% of the documents requested were produced" when in reality, more documents were produced than the last 5 confirmation hearings combined and Democrats purposely requested every document they could come up with just they could flood the process, slow down the production schedule and then cry about not getting everything that was requested.

That's really shady and only believed by the dumbest Americans.

Everyone picked up on it immediately, and pegged him as not only partisan, but prone toward conspiracy theories. Just a really really stupid thing to say, and I think it made everyone think twice about his judgment.

It actually sounded like one of those paranoid Trump tweets, and despite the RWNJs ability to kid themselves into believing that just everyone believes it--nobody other than the extremist right wingers do.

Of all the stupid things and comments Kavanaugh did and made during that off the rails rant, the statement about the Clintons was the most telling and the one that made everyone go...…"WTF???".


I'm surprised he didn't throw Obama and the Kennedys in there for good measure !


I bet Trump was cheering and saying "That's my boy !!"

WHAT?

Oh, wait, you're right - she never said they were formerly introduced, just that she knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that it was him feeling her up.

Okay I'm quoting myself here rying to get someone to answer me. Did Ford ever say how she knew Kavanaugh or did she just meet him at the party? Is there some reason why it would be expected that her friends knew him too? I'm genuinely asking.

ETA: Thanks Kathryn! I posted too fast LOL.

I could be wrong, but I believe she and Kavanaugh have both said and I'm paraphrasing that they knew of each other but did not really know each other. Something like their paths may have crossed...…….I believe in and around the country club both their families belonged to.
