  1. This. It's not whether or not he committed these acts; it's that he's being denied something he is entitled to.
  2. I wish I worked from home! I've been cheating by being on twitter, but streaming is probably too inappropriate.
  3. Wtf happened to Graham? He's been insufferable for nearly a year now.
  4. There was no way I could have anticipated how credible and likable she is. She's sweet and sincere. Watching her opening statement had me in tears. What a brave, brave woman.
  5. I do too. But this anonymous allegation, because she doesn't claim to be the victim gives me pause. Such that there is a real victim, this letter becoming public I hope the real victim, name up front, comes forward. But it's also hard to knock anyone for hiding behind anonymity given what has happened to Ford in the interim (having to go into hiding, leaving ones home, etc.).
  6. And another allegation, this one from 1998.
  7. I'm glad someone thought to ask; my disillusionment has reached such a height that this is question I really want answers to.
  8. The GOP must doubt their ability to seat someone else during a lame duck session, given how avidly and expediently the GOP is backing Kavanaugh in spite of allegations that would seemingly sink anyone else.
  9. New Kavanaugh accuser Julie Swetnick details parties where girls allegedly were drugged and raped Time to withdraw. No more of that "even if he did do it, it wouldn't be disqualifying" (in spite of his lying about it) stuff.
  10. Kohl Stewart part of the answer?
  11. Really smart article: Brett Kavanaugh and the Cruelty of Male Bonding
  12. Gallup has had problematic polling for years. The Dems lead by nearly 9% on the generic ballot. (I really thought I saw a poll today that had them up by 12, but I couldn't track it down). My common sense (which isn't much) doesn't buy that somehow the GOP is getting more popular, I think they are taking significant water from the Kavanaugh "hearings" and Trumps general malaise. I see it among my coworkers too, many whom consider themselves moderate and while philosophically conservative, have given up on the GOP. I know many of us counted on such in 2016 to only end up with Trump, but I think the dynamic is clearly different. Two years of Trump and no Clinton on the ticket will go a long way to Blue wave. I too question the adeptness of the Democratic party, but if there has been a "play" on Kavanaugh, it's worked pretty well (if by means I would never prefer or endorse); I certainly hope the DNC etc. has learned their lessons, but I think we all define what that learning might be differently. I do worry the Democrats may not be up to the task, but I think there's a real cultural shift that their incompetence won't matter, and they'll be in power in spite of it.
  13. This made LOL. https://twitter.com/mattyglesias/status/1044210881343770624
  14. Notre Dame is a different enchilada. After all, they have a national deal with NBC.
  15. Sanchez has also been on the national radar longer than Graterol. I think that largely explains the gap.
  16. If Rosenstein resigns, Trump can fill the vacancy with nearly anyone who is currently in a senate-confirmed position. However, if he's fired, Trump can't take advantage of the Vacancy Act, and the job goes to "first assistant" at Deputy Attorney at the DOJ (I have no idea who that is), until the senate is able to confirm whomever Trump formally nominates.
  17. And another woman may have come forward to the local police.
  18. Too bad. Both in terms of getting facts out and developing the personal and emotional aspects of a story, he was the team's best beat writer in my memory.
  19. It appears that's what happened that Kelly expected a resignation and Rosenstein refused.
  20. Sounds like Rosenstien will meet with Trump on Thursday and will remain on the job.
  21. Other reports are saying he expects to be fired. I think it matters in terms of Trump's ability to appoint his successor. I don't know the nuance here, and I don't really have a chance to study it right now; but I hope Rosenstein doesn't make it easy for Trump.
  22. I don't know about an operative. But he certainly is good at self-promotion. He also seemingly got results for Stormy Daniels. The allegation is gang-rape, maybe repeated gang-rapes, so he better have evidence that traces directly to Kavanaugh; though evidence of a culture of rape at Georgetown Prep would tend to corroborate some Dr. Ford's allegations, but he's making it seem like much more damning than that.
