Christine Blasey Ford's accusations

samedi 22 septembre 2018 à 02:00

Republicans are willing to give Christine Blasey Ford's accusations just enough lip service to invite her to be smeared in the senate committee, before they confirm Kavanaugh anyway. They picked a date without consulting her, and are already blaming her for (they presume) failing to be there.

Republicans set up the Guantanamo prison as a justice-free zone. Now they aim to do the same thing to the whole US.

Their death threats have forced her to go into hiding with her family.

Even the plutocratist "centrist" Democrats are not as bad as that.

She knew she was taking a risk of retaliation by revealing her accusations.

Ford wants the senate to wait for an FBI investigation, which is the best way to get independent evidence about whether Kavanaugh is guilty.

Former federal prosecutors say her accusation is credible, has some corroboration, and calls for an investigation.

Republicans would prefer not to recognize the corroboration, and not to find any more, so they can dismiss the matter as "one person's word against another's."
