This is the first look at the US Border Patrol supervisor accused of murdering four prostitutes in a two-week Texas killing spree that only ended when a would-be fifth victim escaped and got help.
I like how a polygraph test is being used to say... oh it’s true!!!!https://mobile.twitter.com/JoeConchaTV/ ... 7463037953Grassley statement: "The committee vote on Judge Kavanaugh's nomination will proceed as scheduled, next Thurs. Here’s what we know: Judge Kavanaugh has undergone six FBI full-field investigations from 1993 to 2018. No such allegation resembling the anonymous claims ever surfaced"

@TODAYshow
Christine Ford is willing to testify publicly before the Senate Judiciary Cmte. Says Ford believes alleged attack was “attempted rape.”
Based on your prior post, it would seem like her office didn't think the issue should have been brought up in the hearing.Kavanaugh is done. Doesn't matter if allegation is true, becauss no one actual cares if it is.

And no one with any journalistic cache will ever ask Feinstein why she sat on an allegation of attempted rape for months. I'm generally surprised to find something wasn't on any of the Sunday shows this week.

She should be heard." Conway says she's had conversations about this with Pres Trump. Also says Senate Judiciary should hear again from Judge Kavanaugh.
That is basically different from every other statement coming out of the WH, but ok.https://mobile.twitter.com/markknoller/ ... 5179362306Of Christine Blasey Ford's allegations against Judge Kavanaugh, @KellyannePolls says "she should not be ignored or insulted.

@LindseyGrahamSC saying it could be done tomorrow.
I understand, I obviously I agree with the approach, But he initial response was, this allegation is old and doesn't change the process.That is basically different from every other statement coming out of the WH, but ok.https://mobile.twitter.com/markknoller/ ... 5179362306Of Christine Blasey Ford's allegations against Judge Kavanaugh, @KellyannePolls says "she should not be ignored or insulted.

"My client had a beer...The men were stumbling drunk, one only needs to look at the writings of Mark Judge –who was the other person present– to know that he wrote..that they were all drinking so heavily that they would black out repeatedly," says Katz
https://mobile.twitter.com/JohnBerman/s ... 7706272770@SenatorDurbin told me he supports public testimony from Dr. Christine Blasey Ford...but this week would be too soon.
They are going to **** themselves with that approach. Republicans will turn out in droves.I guarantee the plan of the Democrats is to hope Kavanaugh is withdrawn either by himself or the White House and then delay the next candidates hearings until after the election whereby their hopes are if they win the Senate they can then block any nomination and make a Garland argument until 2020.
They still have to get the 50 votes, and to be honest, I would prefer another Gorsuch to a Cavanaugh. I'd prefer a judge with conservative principles than a political actor in the positon.If the republicans nominate a hard right activist judge... I’ll laugh.
But do you bring it up against the wishes of the woman who alleges it happened? I’m not sure what the right answer is to that.Kavanaugh was on Romney's list. He has a perfect rating from the ABA.
We are talking about attempted rape here. Not high school philandering anymore.
Really think anyone with a conscience would think that crime is not important to bring up?
Kavanaugh is far more Roberts than Alito and is moderatr on abortion.
The Amy Barrett lady is faaaaaar more an abortion radical than Kavanaugh and she'll be up next.
I understand the political football here, but the same could/would have been said about the Dems and the "theft" of what would have been Garland's seat. Through no fault of his own he didn't even get a hearing, and the Dems didn't come out in droves.They are going to **** themselves with that approach.

The lady has already said she'd testify today if needed.But do you bring it up against the wishes of the woman who alleges it happened? I’m not sure what the right answer is to that.Kavanaugh was on Romney's list. He has a perfect rating from the ABA.

This guy allegedly attempted to rape a girl in high school, and would be withdrawing over that act. You can blame Dems for holding onto the information longer than you'd like, but you can't blame them for his actions.
