Kavanaugh was the subject of six separate FBI background checks, and none of these accusations came up, EVER. We are to believe he abused women for 3 decades, and miraculously every one of them remained silent about it until this past month. He clerked for Justice Kennedy, for Pete’s sake. Gorsuch went to high school with him. No one had ever heard anything?!?!? It defies logic. Ford supplied the names of all the witnesses, and None of them substantiated her claims. Her good friend, the one she went to the party with, the one Ford says herself she left alone in a house with attempted rapists after she escaped... this friend doesn’t remember a party where her good friend (Ford) went to the bathroom and just disappeared!?!! Never called her the next morning to say “Hey, what happened to you?!!!” That’s just not your normal evening. Ford remembers consuming one singular beer, JUST ONE, but not how she got home after she escaped the house. Now which of those two facts is the trivial one, and which is the fact you would think would stand out in your mind.
Listen, I was a Democrat for years. First presidential vote I cast was for Mondale, but I can’t just ignore the nonsense, the lying, the obvious hypocrisy of the party leaders anymore. Doesn’t mean I’m in love with the Republican Party, or that I’m a Trump fan boy, but I’m not going to just shut off my brain, ignore logic, and fall into lockstep because my party demands it. I can’t do it. I won’t crucify this man for the “cause.”
It’s OK to be an American citizen and be without a political party. It frees you up to start thinking for yourself.
I know for a FACT that fed background checks don't turn up everything.
Yep. Not at all. Friend of mine had an FBI background check for a job, and he called me to tell me he put me on the list of people to call. FBI agent called me and asked me several questions, mostly about honesty, would I hire him to work for me, stuff like that. And again, this agent called me because my friend put me on a list to call.
We will see if this FBI investigations brings up anything and then if not, we will see if Avenatti or any other attorney for the other accusing woman decides to take legal action and what that will do.
