And btw offering that calendar as “proof” may help him a bit with his side but it is not in any an alibi. It cannot disprove her claim. Why not just say he was always drunk and can’t remember if he did indeed attend that one party?

Did you see Avenatti's email to the chief counsel for nominations?!
Sh*t's getting real for Kavanaugh. Gang rape allegations.
Gotta love the GOP... let's ramrod this nomination through before all this sh*t becomes public.

in the United States, an accusation means that the accuser has to provide evidence to convict the accused. It's not the accused defending themselves... it's the accuser proving it.

The Senate testimony is not a legal trial. ... The woman can all take their case to Maryland and file charges against Kavanaugh. And they will. And type of evidence you think is required is not required to convict Kavanaugh of sex crimes. Witnesses. Multiple cases. And more.
Brojo's, here's your chance. Make it go viral. A woman will come along, claim Barack harassed/raped her, and there is actual video proof of him being a questionable character. He might be out of office, but the trophy is still big.

And don't forget, Joe Biden has some video's touching women and children inappropriately. It today's world, a woman will come forward.
Now comes forward women #4 and #5. The HS girlfriend of one Mark Judge. Elizabeth Rasor. And another woman. As told to New Yorker reporter Ronan Farrow
#4
Eric Ruyak nailed Supreme Court nominee, and his former classmate, Brett Kavanaugh and his friend Mark Judge in a Facebook post this week. He claimed Judge not only attacked him for outing a priest who molested youth but tried to blame it on “unchecked liberalism.” But now, Judge’s ex-girlfriend is backing him up.
“Under normal circumstances, I wouldn’t reveal information that was told in confidence,” said Elizabeth Rasor. However, “I can’t stand by and watch him [Mark} lie.”
#5
Another woman recalled male students who “would get a female student blind drunk” on what they called “jungle juice,” which was grain alcohol and Hawaiian Punch. They would then try to take advantage of her. “It was disgusting,” the woman said. “They treated women like meat.”
Along with Hopey Dopey and Uncle Joe, I can see this coming full circle on a lot of politicians. Buckle up, buttercups. lol

A big problem regarding the accusation is that this is a nomination hearing, not any kind of formal investigation. Another one is that the GOP has majority, so they have more control of the process. Combine those two and what you get is the GOP bulldozing their way through this, well because they can. They won’t agree to an investigation because they are afraid of what will be discovered. They won’t slow down the process because every extra day they have this problem in their hands equals more lost votes in the midterms.
Ford took a polygraph so we know she’s not lying about what she believes happened. She has nothing to gain from this experience, in fact her worse nightmare has already come to life. What she does have to gain however is some form of justice. Not many would have the guts to finally come forward this many years later and do it when it they know their whole life will be turned upside down.
By speaking out she is doing everyone a huge service - if you don’t think a nominee’s life should be examined inside and out and fully combed through then you are for a lower standard. Thousands of documents concealed by the WH - sure it’s lawful but what does that say to you? If you think she’s falsely accusing him then rest assured she will come out of this looking like a complete clown with possible lawsuits coming her way. The Dems will look like clowns too, so don’t worry. However, if her accusations have enough merit, then we all should be satisfied the system works and another would-be criminal isn’t going to be a SCJ.
Are you mad? Not a single "witness" she names agrees with her story. Men or women. None. Zero people. Most of them don't even recall being at the "party." It's weak as heck, everyone knows it, and the testimony is going to be great to watch. Oh yeah, giant coincidence that she's a huge anti-Trumper now too, and everyone that "supports" her is too. This delay is the biggest joke, and is a disgrace to our confirmation system. They guy's only made it through, what, 6 FBI background checks throughout his career?
Anyone asking for an FBI investigation is a maroon. The FBI doesn't investigate "he-said-she-saids" from 36 years in the past. Though, perhaps they would be able to find more than they have on the Russian collluuuuusssion front! LOLOL!!

The FBI certainly DOES investigate "he-said-she-saids". The FBI investigated Anita Hill's accusations and also investigated "womanizing" accusations in the failed nomination of John Tower to be Secretary of Defense.
It is part of the FBI's job to do background checks. The FBI is able to interview people under penalty of obstruction of justice. Therefore, they are the agency best able to establish facts that can be brought before the senate to help them render a decision.
The problem we have here is that Republicans are scared to death of the facts. They don't want anyone to do a credible investigation. That's why Republicans and Trump have effectively told the FBI to stand down.

A "he-said-she-said" where a crime wasn't committed is NOT in the FBI's scope.
That's what you Lefties keep missing because of your deeply-engrained TDS: CRIMES are investigated, not PEOPLE.
The FBI has actual important crimes to be looking into, not a potential drunken incident between two teens..... that might have occurred 36 years ago.
Grow up.

You are simply wrong. A background check on a Supreme Court nominee is incredibly important. This is what the FBI is there for. This is what the FBI has done in the past and will continue to do in the future.
We need to make sure we are not putting a rapist on the Supreme Court.

This post is an example of where Republicans have problems, besides labeling the opposition as Lefties.
You say that when a women is sexually assaulted at a young age and the memory of it causes distress throughout her adult life, it is not an "important crime."
You have to realize that half of the voters in this country are women and you are dismissing their concerns.
Woman after woman have come out to discuss past traumas that they didn't want to deal with at the time that continue to haunt them.
Stick to saying that he didn't do it, not that it wasn't important.
This Kavanaugh hearing is not a crime investigation but a follow up personal background check.
The FBI does a background check on Supreme Court nominees. So if something comes up after the initial check and before a confirmation it would make sense that they would do further investigation if it is deemed worthy.
Worthiness is subjective and I guess Republicans will label this an unimportant crime and deem this somehow worthy of a hearing, but not further FBI assistance.
It's a political process and that's how they are looking at it.
Mitch McConnell is willing to lose the senate this year to get this one guy on the court before midterms.
Just like he was wiling to violate the constitution to get Gorsuch on instead of Garland.
He announced just recently that Kavanugh will be confirmed without even pretending that he will listen to the upcoming testimony of his accuser.
Meanwhile Trumps RCP average approval rating has jumped to 43%.

I think you're using the term "investigation" pretty liberally. An FBI investigation here could consist of looking at the available evidence, maybe an interview or two although presumably sworn testimony will be part of the available evidence, and deciding it would be impossible to determine. So technically they'd open an "investigation," but it's not gonna be some 1940s noir detective film.

I think you are gravely mistaken. Millions of Republicans held their noses and voted for Trump and pulled the R lever specifically to get conservatives on the court. If they succeed, job well done in the eyes of many, many people.
