Why do the repubs keep bringing up

[FirstLight]

The amount of time Feinstein had the letter...and saying they "could" have had the investigation.

1. it is all they got - distorting the reality of why DiFi didn't act

and then supposedly shifts the blame of no FBI investigation to her.

[NurseJackie]

2. They are liars. This is theater for the benefit of Trump and ill-informed Trump supporters.

[Bayard]

3. They have no respect

No respect for Senator Feinstein honoring Dr. Ford's request for confidentiality.

4. someone ought to

tell them that maybe Feinstein held the letter to hopefully save Kavanaugh from extreme embarrassment... it wouldn't have had to come to light if it looked like it wouldn't be confirmed...

and of course, lawyers in this day and age are a good idea just in case... we should not let the Republicans set the agenda and ideas

5. ...

Exactly, I wish they would just stfu, or that one of the Dems would just set the record straight

[Hortensis]

6. Smoke and mirrors creating a fake grievance to

"explain" the train wreck now.

The Repubs needed those weeks before this investigatory hearing to bury Kavanaugh's "long paper trail" that make McConnell think they couldn't get him confirmed.
