And she would be held liable legally and charged if she lied, and took a lie detector test and passed it, yet trump and the kgop still try to claim she's a liar. If that were the case she would never appear to testify without being forced to , like kavanaugh's friend has done now and refused to show up and testify under oath. That exposes the liars when they won't testify under oath, but she will. trump won't testify before Mueller either which shows who the liars are now. kavanaugh is a serial liar and corrupt, and maybe has ties to russians and putins money, which if shown to be true he's guilty of lying under oath, and will be removed from his position on the court anyway. I think they're hoping that he'll pass , but know he won't, because if he does the outrage will be so great the kgop will never be what they were again, ever. trump and the kgop could care less about women and their rights. They hate women, especially strong women , and minority women. This also shows many more women are needed badly , along with minorities , are needed to be voted into our government . This is all about trump protecting himself and putin and the kgop with a compromised justice in their pocket.

that these accounts may not even be admitted. And the collaborators will say they weren't contemporaneous to the attack on Dr. Ford.

I really hope I'm proven wrong, but I think more will depend on Ms. Ramirez and Michael Avenatti's client. Even they may not be enough to stop Kavanaugh.

I in no way mean to diminish this woman's bravery. Sorry I'm so dispirited tonight.

Witnesses can submit any documentation. Dems can read the affidavits when their turn to ask questions come around or Ford's lawyers can read them.

They WANT us to feel dispirited. Don't let them have that power over you. There are a lot of good and very competent people on our side. It's gonna be a rough ride for a while yet, so hang on, but keep your eyes on the prize.

If they do manage to "plow" this through, there will be people in the streets (I sure as hell will be!) nationwide, and filling the steps and the halls of Congress in DC as well. Make plans. Stay positive.

93% of the material he's produced since he began working in politics can't be found or released, but he can produce a calendar from his junior year of high school in 1982.

Heard her speak, but as far as optics, she looks like anyone's aunt might. Opposite of a Faux news blonde. Were they trying to show they are men who don't care about "looks"?
