I just heard something on the ex-boyfriend of Ford signing a sworn statement that she coached people on taking polygraphs, something she emphatically denied under oath and perhaps because one of those people was a roommate of hers who went into the FBI.
I get the sense that people will get the sense of full blown victory, their own way, by whatever trail of media they follow.

"I just heard..."
Yeah, well when you engage in spreading rumours around it tends to lead to people being misinformed and contributes to the tribalization and partisanship that your country seems to be struggling with so much lately.
All this talk about women from the left and it turns out to be a Republican woman who is the hero coming out of this mess. This debacle has revealed Susan Collins to be a stateswoman of weight and merit. Schumer, Feinstein, Booker and Harris are exposed as malicious, petty and deceitful.

Sam starts this podcast talking about the Kavanaugh/Ford thing. I think he makes plenty of fair points.
i Do Agree with Sam Harris; there is nothing Conservative about Putting a Judge Under Oath Proven in Basic Common Sense to Lie Multiple times to Senators. And i Suppose the Good News for Liberal Concerns is it appears as is the Case With Trump there is nothing too Conservative Still About Excess Drinking and or Womanizing; so, in other Words, those who support the Right to Choice and Gay Marriage and the such as that don't really Have any thing to worry about there as in that Case Susan Collins Gave a Reasonable Opinion; however, the Fact is the Republican Party of so-Called Conservatives Will Be HiStorically Stained in Legacy For Putting a Person who lied Under Oath on the Supreme Court; and it is highly Unlikely to Pan- Out that Trump's Main Wish to somehow Side-Step now what is coming his way Soon Enough from a Fair and Equitable Investigation From the FBI and Team Mueller as such as the Trump Stuff is most definitely going to implode Rather Sooner than Later as most of this now is Just a Distraction from His coming Downfall and the Misery of Minions Following HIm Swirling Around all his Commode of Lies in the Trumpian Era of Gaslighting Reality to the 30 Percent or so who can't see through all his lies; as it's True, Kavanaugh Followed the Flatulence of Trumpian Lies; And he will never escape that Flatulence he showed the World as His 'False' Colors As Such.

Republican Senators instead of questioning Christine Blasey Ford get a female to do it for them. The message intended to be sent - We get #MeToo The message actually sent - Men are incapable of questioning women about a sexual assault because they are born rapists or because of their male privilege.
Conservatives widely praise Professor Ford's testimony. The message intended to be sent - We have empathy and sympathy The message actually sent - We are dumbfounded that women can actually be an effective witness (Like a psychology professor does not know a thing or two about pulling heartstrings)
Senator Flake forces the Republicans to delay the vote even though he says he intends to vote for Kavanaugh The message intended to be sent - Damm if I know The message actually sent - The Republicans blinked, game over. It's only a matter of time until the until we put the grandpas in their place, schadenfreude will never feel so good.
Well here is a #me too. I got sexually assaulted at college it was not a horribly violent assult. But it was someone I thought I could trust tried to make moves on me. Like I was 19 they were in their 40s and I thought it was just a friendly college student older than me. But at one point when I went to hang out, at the time I really thought it was jsut hanging out...but then the guy 20 years older than me tried pressuring me to have sex, and at one point tried to kind of force me into a bedroom. I ended up letting him suck my tits for a bit so he'd leave me alone long enough to get out. Of course the Rep want a guy who is fine with rape as well as political corruption.
I don't want a f*****g judge that sees that kind of situation as fair game, which is what I am afraid we have now with his confirmation...not only that but should you get raped as a women according to that piece of s**t you should have the baby regardless. Because maybe it was not exactly rape but someone just spreading their seed...how idotic this guy got confirmed.
I suppose next we will be hearing about how child rape is fine, so long as the grown man didn't see anything wrong with raping said child, at least under the Trump Administration.
