Anonymous letter claiming high school misbehavior. Your Democrat Party at work.

As I understand this story, an anonymous letter was sent to a Democratic Representative from California, who forwarded it to Feinstein, I guess because she's the ranking Dem on the judiciary committee. Feinstein referred the matter to the FBI, I guess because a crime may have taken place?
Please explain what your issues are with this process.

Madams Feinstein sat on said letter for months launching this garbage now to attempt, ala Anita Hill, to stop a qualified nominee.

Good one. Except the Hillary allegations were months, maybe years old. This was from high school. Of course it is no surprise to see a Democrat resort to “Me-too” garbage. The fact that this is anonymous is just the cherry on top of this scat Sundae...

A thread on a "New Low" on a day when the POTUS is lying about the loss of nearly 3000 American lives that isn't about that at all. Interesting.

Prophetic title for a thread. I think the confirmation of this man, which will almost certainly happen, would fit the topic perfectly. Your Republican party.

Pretty sure "could happen to any of us" would in reality not be happening at all if they had nominated that Coney Barrett lady.
Also, appears like Feinstein did everything right according to the Post story (https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/california-professor-writer-of-confidential-brett-kavanaugh-letter-speaks-out-about-her-allegation-of-sexual-assault/2018/09/16/46982194-b846-11e8-94eb-3bd52dfe917b_story.html?utm_term=.b364590de20c). She reported it. She only put out a statement after The Intercept went public. Whatever Democratic Senator thought they should be able to make the call whether to make this public or not sound awful though.

The US Senate debating this is a joke. This is the same Senate that shielded Ted Kennedy and Chris Dodd?

It just seems that way at times. This is also the same Republican-controlled Senate which currently shields Trump the p*ssygrabber and ignores his payoffs to pornstars and Playboy models. Last I checked, Kennedy is still dead and Dodd hasn't been in the Senate since 2011. So which is the bigger joke?

35 year old allegation that she thought so little of that she did not mention to anyone for 30 years.
I am not sure if it is more suspect or more convenient...
That her lawyer is Debra Katz makes it damn near laughable. She who opined that what Clinton did to Paula Jones was okay and who defended Al Franken.
Next.
P.S. With grudging admiration, no one does dirty 11th hour allegations better than Democrat politicians.

Bart O'Kavanaugh? Brett Kavanaugh’s High School Friend Isn’t Helping the Nominee’s Case www.motherjones.com/politics/2018/09/brett-kavanaugh-mark-judge-high-school-drunk-allegation-alcohol/My guess is that Kavanaugh gets confirmed regardless. (N.B. Trump nominated a good friend of mine, an alumna of DOJ with whom I worked on a complex case with, for the 9th Circuit. She is very conservative -- clerked for Judge Edith Jones on the 5th Circuit -- but I served as personal and character reference for her in her background check even though I likely disagree with her on perhaps 75% of her political positions. I told the FBI agent conducting her background check the exact same thing because I had absolutely zero questions about her character and integrity.)

Elvado going full deep state conspiracy.... #Teamdeepstate She planted the evidence in 2012 because she saw the future in the deep state crystal ball... Special props for pretending like there is a deadline on this... Last minute! You guys left a SC seat unfilled for over a year because you didn't like his politics.

Right you are. 35 year old allegation that can’t be “disproved” and she told no one about for 30 years. Fronted and lead by longtime Democrat fundraiser and apologist. Nothing suspect here.
