    I’m asking you for your source that the FBI report says that. According to multiple news sources, the report hasn’t been filed yet.

    False. The President of the ABA did, in a partisan manner that was not upheld by the ABA itself. The ABA graded on his qualifications, and said the President was wrong and reiterated their "well-qualified" grade.

    That still isn't quite right. An ABA committee responsible for the qualified/not qualified rankings disagreed with the president. The ABA itself has 400,000 members.

    Also, what makes the President's letter "partisan" in your eyes?

    By the committee pointing out that their response, unlike the President's, was "non-partisan". Maybe I took liberties there?

    The news outlets day The FBI questioned her. The report not being filed means nothing.

    She was questioned, gave her story and Kavanaugh LIED about when he knew. No one is answering the WHY question.

    That’s not what I am asking you. You said, “The FBI investigation says it's true that he exposed his junk to her.

    I
    am asking because I would really like to know if that is true, or if you said something you didn’t mean.

    Well, there's nothing that makes a committee inherently non-partisan, even if they claim they are.

    I don't think we have any evidence that either the President or the Committee are or aren't non-partisan.

    No one else cares. I'm right, you are wrong. That's basically all there is to it.

    Yes, the motive is the reason to do something.

    Her motive was to either:

    1. Stop Trump and his agenda

    or

    2. Exact revenge on the bro she used to stalk/obsess about as a teenager

    The $750 grand and being made a leftist hero is just icing on the cake.

    Pulling something out of your ass doesn't make it true, it just makes it stink.

    It appears that Sheila Jackson Lee's staff (who is on the Judiciary Committee) was doxxing Republican senators during the hearings.

    Fair enough. It's what she reported to the FBI and its been proven that he lied about the date he knew she'd reported it. It will eventually come out but they haven't come out with their report. She has corroborating text messages. There was no reason to lie about the timeline. But was there? Why did he lie?

    This is a confusing post. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee is on the House Judiciary committee, so she's got nothing to do with the confirmation.

    How is the handing of an envelope to the lawyer connected to the doxxing? It's hard to understand why Ford's lawyer would need hard copies of Mitch McConnell's home address.
