As the day started yesterday, the Senate Judiciary Committee was planning to hear sworn testimony from Christine Ford about her allegations that Judge Brett Kavanaugh tried to rape her almost 40 years ago; Judge Kavanaugh was then to be allowed sworn testimony in rebuttal and the Committee would then vote on confirmation. But, Senator Diane Feinstein says she will not accept that, demanding the vote be rescheduled and another full hearing be had.
Then, out popped the weasel. There are now allegations that Kavanaugh's mother presided over a foreclosure proceeding against Ford's parents back in the day, meaning that Ford's accusations could well be a dishonest payback. Not to be outdone or out-maneuvered, Feinstein countered that she had even more allegations she would reveal in due time, while again demanding that the Committee vote be rescheduled until after the November elections.
There's only one reason Feinstein would be playing her cards in this manner... only one reason why these allegations did not come forth months ago: they are lies, meant to discredit Kavanaugh, create confusion and derail the nomination process.
Either that, or Feinstein is totally negligent in not presenting this information weeks ago so that it could be scrutinized during the confirmation hearings. In either case, Feinstein needs to be censured and removed.
That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
