The media keeps calling this a “limited” investigation in coordination with Democrats in order to delegitimize it.
But of course this is a “limited” supplemental background investigation — they are not doing another (the seventh) full background investigation on Kavanaugh, which would involve financial dislosures and contacts with foreign nationals and all that.
The investigation is “limited” in the precise sense that they are interviewing people who can provide information about the new allegations.
What else would they be doing?
More #FakeNews from the media wing of the Democrat Party.
Because the list of witnesses is fairly short — especially because of Ms. Ford’s conveniently elusive recollections of who was at this alleged party — of course this will lot be a long investigation.
But, as John Sexton notes, the Democrats are calling this a sham, because the point of all this isn’t to investigate Ford’s allegations, it’s to stall the nomination until after the mid-terms.
The F.B.I. moved on Sunday to quickly complete an abbreviated investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct against Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh, even as Democrats demanded more information about the inquiry’s scope, warning that its apparent constraints could make it a “farce.”…
Officials said the F.B.I.’ “limited” supplemental background check of Judge Kavanaugh could be finished by Monday morning. Set in motion late last week by three Senate Republicans, the inquiry was supposed to shed further light on accusations that Judge Kavanaugh engaged in sexual misconduct during his high school and college years and help resolve the fierce national debate over whether he should win confirmation to the Supreme Court.
But the investigation’s apparent narrow reach has infuriated the judge’s critics, who said he should be subjected to a wide-ranging examination of his drinking and possible sexual misconduct.
Ah. His drinking now.
Trump was asked about that repeatedly in his press conference about the US-Mexico-Canada trade deal. Trump pointed out, correctly, that Brett Kavanaugh repeatedly confessed to drinking a lot in high school and college. The only thing he specifically denied was being a “black-out drunk” where he drank so much he forgot all details of what had happened in the past.
Something Ms. Ford accomplishes without drinking, it seems.
Kavanaugh even responded to a question about passing out by admitting that yes, when he drank, sometimes he then got tired and fell asleep, only to then note that this is not the same as being “black-out” drunk.
So the Democrat Media is really just lying here in claiming Kavanaugh claimed he didn’t get drunk. He only denied getting black-out, amnesiac drunk.
And what investigation could prove otherwise?
In the seventeenth paragraph, after suggesting for the previous sixteen paragraphs that Trump had “limited” the investigation, the NYT admits:
How come nothing has been mentioned about Dr Ford’s connection to the CIA?????????? Isn’t her family involved with them ?????????
It depends on what the definition of “boof” is.
The accusation breaks down further. As shown, calls have been put out far and wide for someone… ANYONE… that can corroborate any parts of Ford’s story or dispute Kavanaugh’s. “Willing to sign an affidavit” no doubt is the phrase that sends them a-running. We have seen many that will attest to how strongly they believe in Big Foo… er, Ford’s accusation but NONE that are willing to face perjury to support her. Are the witnesses and/or victims to/of Kavanaugh’s sexual attacks that frightened (courage such as Ford’s does not grow on trees, you know)… or do they even exist?
I don’t think the other side realizes that some sign of evidence supporting Ford’s accusation (not a debate about what constitutes drinking, drunk or farting) for people that don’t want to see any innocent person ruined by false accusation to change their view on Kavanaugh’s confirmation.
