Graham slams Democrats, vigorously defends Kavanaugh
You might call it a Graham slam! :thumb2:
BTW, the Democrats have reached a new low with this charade, as Graham characterizes the assault against Kavanaugh.

I wonder how Bill Clinton would have held up under these type of proceedings?

President Trump orders FBI investigation into Kavanaugh
This is one of those good news, bad news kind of situations. The good news is that a vote is still likely before the midterms. The bad news is that the vote will delayed by at least a week to give the FBI time to make a "supplemental" investigation which is limited in scope.

It is funny tho that the FBI, one of the things Trump bitches about will do a inquire that will shut up some of his critics. The critics demand a back check and a back check the will get.

Some say that Christine Blasey Ford provided convincing testimony the other day just because she was coherent and showed emotion. Neither of those things prove anything, especially in light of the fact that she is a psychology professor. She knows exactly what components are necessary to make a convincing accusation. She's worked in the field of psychology for three decades! She's a hardcore democrat taking an opportunity to head off a conservative supreme court roster. There's a lot riding on the fortuitous timing of her accusation and on top of that now she has the notoriety she needs to make millions as a guest speaker and an author. Her accusation was carefully calculated and planned out. Everything about the way her accusation "surfaced" screams of phoniness designed to have political impact!

"My Therapist Got It Wrong" Christine Blasey Ford Flustered Over Her Inconsistent Statements
The chances that the therapist got it wrong are almost zero! Also she did not name Kavanaugh at that time. She claims to be 100% sure now, but she didn't name him then? The lady is a LIAR!

I'm starting to see this as more of a battle between good and evil. All that's necessary for evil to propagate is for good people to stand by and do nothing. Since Trump has been elected people are standing up for themselves and not letting evil people get away with their bullshit! I hope this kind of thing continues long after Trump is gone because he's not going to last forever.

Cavanaugh wouldn't have stood a chance had he been nominated by any of the last 5 presidents. Though Bush did succeed in getting Clarence Thomas through, I don't think he would have made it through Maxine Waters and the likes had he been white. Thomas was conservative but I don't think he's been anywhere near as constitutional as Cavanaugh will be which is probably the real reason for the controversy.
Make Trona great again!

Trump mocks Kavanaugh accuser at raucous rally
Thank you Mr. President for pointing out the obvious flaws with the lying lady's claims. All false accusers should rot in hell!

Kavanaugh pens op-ed defending 'emotional' testimony
Those criticizing Kavanaugh for showing too much emotion would have been just as quick to criticize him if he had not shown enough emotion.
