I hope the FBI looks into this

Christine Blasey Ford testified on Thursday before the Senate Judiciary Committee that her “memories” of Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh “first came up” in 2012. According to The Gateway Pundit and New York Post columnist Paul Sperry, it looks Ford may have lied about the exact date these “memories” resurfaced. If true, that would mean Ford committed perjury, which is a felony.

On Thursday, both Ford and Kavanaugh testified before the Committee. Ford alleges Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her around 1982 at a high school party. Kavanaugh not only denies the allegations, several of the witnesses who supposedly attended the gathering have submitted sworn statements to Congress that they never witnessed what Ford has alleged.

But one of the most notable exchanges came when Committee Ranking Democrat Diane Feinstein asked Ford about when she first told anyone about the allegations against Kavanaugh.

Update Sept 28:

FORD CAUGHT IN MAJOR LIE? — City Remodeling Permits Show Project She Linked to Kavanaugh Was in 2008 NOT 2012


Christine Blasey Ford told the US Senate Judiciary Committee that the memories of Brett Kavanaugh “first came up” when she went into counseling in 2012. In May 2012 Ford and her husband argued over her desire to add “a second front door” to their home. Ford told the committee on Thursday the desire for a second door was because Brett Kavanaugh made her “claustrophobic.”

But there may have been something else…
As Paul Sperry reported on Thursday night. The Palo Alto building permits were issued to Ford and her husband in 2008 — NOT 2012.

Paul Sperry: Palo Alto bldg permit records raise questions about Ford’s testimony she completed an “extensive remodel” of home in 2012 & that this was seminal event that led her down path to coming out against Kavanaugh b/c she needed to add an escape door. Permit was issued in 2008.

LIVE: Ford claims she's not "political" & that reason Kavanaugh first "came up in counseling" in May 2012 was that she & her husband argued over her desire to add "a second front door" to home b/c Kavanaugh had made her "claustrophobic." But there may have been something else …

Delays, delays... Senate vote pushed back to next Friday instead of Tuesday...

Trump orders FBI to reopen background investigation into Supreme Court pick Brett Kavanaugh in light of sex assault claim


President Donald Trump said Friday that he had ordered the FBI to conduct a "supplemental investigation" into an allegation of sexual assault against Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh.

Trump said that the probe "must be limited in scope and completed in less than one week."

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders tweeted out Trump's statement Friday afternoon.

Sanders' tweet came just hours after Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., called for a delay in Kavanaugh's final confirmation vote by up to a week to allow the FBI to investigate "credible" allegations of sexual misconduct against the Supreme Court nominee.

The announcement is a dramatic concession from Trump, who had strongly endorsed Kavanaugh in the wake of the judge's incendiary testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee a day earlier.

Testifying under oath before committee, a visibly furious and emotional Kavanaugh had denied Christine Blasey Ford's allegation that he sexually assaulted her in the early 1980s when they were teenagers.

Ford had offered her first publicly spoken words about the alleged assault in the Senate hearing before Kavanaugh. She said an intoxicated Kavanaugh, with participation from his classmate Mark Judge, had held her down on a bed, covered her mouth and tried to disrobe her.

Kavanaugh has repeatedly denied the allegation, and told the committee Thursday that "I've never sexually assaulted anyone."

In a statement following Trump's decision, Ford's lawyer Debra Katz said that "a thorough FBI investigation is critical to developing all the relevant facts."

Ford "welcomes this step in the process, and appreciates the efforts of Senators Flake, Murkowski, Manchin and Collins -- and all other senators who have supported an FBI investigation -- to ensure it is completed before the Senate votes on Judge Kavanaugh's nomination," Katz said. "No artificial limits as to time or scope should be imposed on this investigation."

Minutes before Sanders' tweet, Kavanaugh released a statement through White House deputy press secretary Raj Shah on Friday:

"Throughout this process, I've been interviewed by the FBI, I've done a number of "background" calls directly with the Senate, and yesterday, I answered questions under oath about every topic the Senators and their counsel asked me. I've done everything they have requested and will continue to cooperate."

Senate GOP agrees to one-week delay on Kavanaugh Supreme Court confirmation to allow for FBI probe


Senate Republicans have agreed to delay a vote on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation for one week to allow for an FBI probe into allegations of sexual misconduct against the judge, according to a statement issued by the Senate Judiciary Committee Friday.

The committee requested that the White House "instruct the FBI to conduct a supplemental FBI background investigation with respect to" Kavanaugh's nomination, the statement said.

The president agreed in short order. In a tweet posted by White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders Friday afternoon, the president said had ordered a supplemental investigation that would be "limited in scope and completed in less than one week."

The delay means that a floor vote on Kavanaugh's confirmation, which had been expected for Tuesday, could now happen three days later. Senators will move forward with a procedural vote expected Saturday.

In a statement released by the White House Friday afternoon, Kavanaugh said he would "continue to cooperate."

Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn, R-Texas, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and a number of other Republicans huddled in McConnell's office Friday afternoon to discuss how to proceed on the confirmation following a call from a number of key senators to delay the vote.

The president, who has stood by his nominee amid a turbulent confirmation process roiled by accusations of sexual abuse, said Friday that he would be "totally reliant" on Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa.

"I'm going to rely on all of the people including Senator Grassley, who's doing a very good job," Trump said.

The Judiciary Committee voted on Friday along party lines to advance Kavanaugh's nomination to the full Senate, but a dramatic last-minute speech from retiring Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., thrust the process into chaos.

Flake, who earlier announced that he would vote "yes" on Kavanaugh's confirmation, said at the committee meeting that his floor vote would be contingent on an FBI probe. A number of other senators considered to be swing votes soon followed suit, with Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and West Virginia Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin signaling their support for Flake's proposal almost immediately.

The delay follows an explosive, nearly nine-hour day of testimony before the Judiciary Committee Thursday from Kavanaugh and one of his accusers, Christine Blasey Ford. Ford has alleged that Kavanaugh attempted to rape her at a high school gathering that took place more than three decades ago. Kavanaugh has vehemently denied the accusation.

The prospect of an FBI probe was contentiously debated at the hearing Thursday. The two top members of the committee sparred over the utility of such an inquiry — as well as if it could even be conducted.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the top Democrat on the committee, said an FBI probe would be "the best way to ensure a fair process to both Kavanaugh and Ford."

In contrast, Grassley called Democratic demands for the FBI to get involved "consistent with their stated desires to obstruct the Kavanaugh nomination by any means necessary," and said he had "no authority to force an executive branch agency to conduct an investigation into a matter it considers to be closed."

Ford and Kavanaugh themselves were split on whether the FBI should investigate. While Ford has pushed for the bureau to look into her claims, Kavanaugh has pushed back. He said he wants to do whatever the Judiciary Committee thinks is best.
Kavanaugh responded emotionally Thursday when Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del., pointed out to him that the FBI could conclude an inquiry in a matter of days.

"Senator, do you know how long the last 10 days have been for us?" Kavanaugh said. "Every day is like an eternity."

[man down]

LOL who didnt see this coming!

Just heard on Fox, Fords lawyers are saying there should be no time limit now, Yeah think they're not political hacks?

[The Big Dunn]

Lmfao. How can any of your take 1bad65 seriously? God forbid Republicans put the integrity of the Supreme Court ahead of politics.

Even if they prove kavanaugh lied and he is taken out of consideration The court still is going to have a republican majority for the next 2 generations.

It just won’t have someone on it that committed sexual assault or watched it happen and didn’t say anything.

Someone please explain how this would be a win for Dems?

I assume all of you don’t think what kavanaugh said about the Clintons is real.
