To obey DU copyright rules, I'm just going to give the BS RUMORS with no text. All the RUMORS are false or misleading.

1- Claim: Dr. Blasey’s students left negative reviews on her RateMyProfessors.com profile, calling her “unprofessional” and citing her “dark” personality.

2- Claim: Judge Kavanaugh’s mother once ruled against Dr. Blasey’s parents in a foreclosure case.

3- Claim: Dr. Blasey made similar sexual assault accusations against Justice Neil Gorsuch during his nomination process.

4- Claim: Dr. Blasey is a major Democratic donor with a long history of left-wing activism.

5- Claim: Dr. Blasey’s brother worked at a law firm with ties to the Russia investigation.

So now when you get a nutty email or see a strange Facebook post, you're prepared for it.

1. Those people will fall for anything

I haven't seen these memes or talking points but then I'm staying away from Facebook recently.

Miss my friends but got sick of the false memes and being profiled by Russia And Facebook analytics.

2. By Friday, they'll be saying...

I hear she has an extra eye
That always remains awake

I hear that she can shed her skin
As easily as a snake!

I hear some rebel Animals
Are giving her food and shelter!

I hear her soul is so unclean
Pure water can melt her!

And in Trumpland, they'll be out buying buckets of water a la Wicked.

They are such asshats. I would love for the FBI to start doing their job re: witness tampering.

3. They can't be "viral" yet if we haven't seen them. The goal would be to make them got viral, but

they clearly have yet to do that. Check out the meaning of "go viral."

8. I have seen them all except No. 1. I have personally heard people talk about No. 2,3 and 5.

All on Tuesday (bumped into a buddy and his wife at Walmart) and Wednesday (stopped to chat with group of three of my neighbors while I walked my dog). Also over heard conversation in Post Office lobby that Democrats were smearing Kavanaugh.

4. I saw the bogus claim on the dailymail website about Dr Blaseys parents and Judge Kavanaugh 's

Mother ruling against them. When I looked for it the next day on the site, it was gone.
