LordReed:Oh it does matter, in case you haven't noticed the game the dems are playing is trying to delay the confirmation process as long as possible because the next term of the SCOTUS is starting on Monday October 1 and if Kavanaugh is not confirmed by that date, then he can't be sworn in until when the next term starts next year so all these shenanigans is just to make sure Kavanaugh's confirmation does not meet that date. If feinstein had released the letter earlier, the investigations would have been over by now and won't be in the way of confirmation of Kavanaugh but she deliberately decided to bring it up this late and start calling for an investigation but the Senate GOP and Kavanaugh himself knew the game the dems were playing and outsmarted them 3 Likes |

So the American Bar Association has come out and said delay the confirmation until an FBI investigation has been done. 2 Likes |

As far as I'm concerned, the whole ford testimony was just a sham. in between the faked shaky voice and sobs and the dems attempt at forcing everyone to believe her account to the seemingly "guilty" pronouncement on Kavanaugh even before a trial, its obviously a hack job. 3 Likes |

LordReed:Another grandstanding nonsense! The FBI have said categorically that they are not going to do any investigation as this is not within their purview. So what rubbish investigations are all these clowns crowing about? Well, they are just wasting their breath, in the next few hours, the Senate judiciary committee will be voting to confirm Kavanaugh as SCOTUS judge 2 Likes |

Re: American Politics Thread - 2024 Elections — Biden’s Presidency! by coluka: 4:00pm On Sep 28, 2018 |
LordReed:You're just muddling up issues, those two cases were totally different, before any judge comes before the senate, the FBI has the duty of screening the judge and investigating any untoward behavior. It was during that screening that The FBI investigated Anita hill after they uncovered her story. Kavanaugh on the other hand passed through his own investigation without any issues. Beyond that stage, the FBI can't dabble into misdemeanor cases. The only way it would have been legal for the FBI to look into this matter is if it was part of the things they investigated during the process of screening Kavanaugh, beyond that, Ford's accusations amount to misdemeanor allegations and are clearly outside the purview of the FBI 2 Likes |

coluka: The case for an investigation. If Billy Cosby can be charged, tried and punished for things that happened 30+years ago, it is owed Dr Ford the same courtesy. |

LordReed:They don't, they are done with their own part of the confirmation process and have submitted their report as part of Kavanaugh's security clearance. This issue being raised by ford is a misdemeanor, it is out of the FBI's sphere of duties. She can take her case to the police if she has any evidence to back her claims 3 Likes |
Re: American Politics Thread - 2024 Elections — Biden’s Presidency! by coluka: 4:14pm On Sep 28, 2018 |
LordReed: Then she should take her case to the police or a competent lawyer and present her evidence to them or help them get the evidence they need to prosecute Kavanaugh. That's what the experienced prosecutor that questioned her was talking about, that if the evidence she presented to the senate judiciary committee were brought to her as a prosecutor, it wouldn't even be enough to get a warrant of arrest against Kavanaugh talk more of prosecuting him 2 Likes |

coluka: Let's be clear, if this had been an issue that came up during his screening the FBI would have investigated it, correct? |
Re: American Politics Thread - 2024 Elections — Biden’s Presidency! by coluka: 4:38pm On Sep 28, 2018 |
LordReed:All I am saying is that at this point, the only recourse she has is to report her case to the police or get a very competent lawyer to help her do that so they can investigate and help her get evidence if there is any that prosecutors can use in bringing a case against Kavanaugh 3 Likes |

The Dotard now says the FBI should get involved in the Kavanaugh case. Another reversal by the pig due to the tremendous pressure from the American people. 39 days to go and Nov 6 on my mind. 1 Like |

LordReed:I still think he will end up in the Supreme Court and that's fine with me. My main problem is the Chief Racist himself who is appointing all these worthless people. The reason he did the FBI thing is the tremendous pressure being put on the republikkkans by the suburban women ( Soccer Moms ) and other Americans. We shall see how it plays out but if the FBI finds any dirt on him, he's a gonna. |
