Originally posted by firstfloor View PostI was very deliberate not to mention Kavanaugh precisely because I do not know the truth of the accusation anymore than you do. The post was not about Kavanaugh in any respect. I did know though that lots of people here would jump to the wrong conclusion. Happily, I do not have a reputation to protect so I can afford to be a little more confrontational than some.

That sort of behaviour encourages a person like me to poke it with a stick. Can you really blame me?

She has also had her email hacked, and her identity impersonated online.
Republican Senator Chuck Grassley has, ironically, been complaining she has not been responding to his emails about the proposed hearings on Monday. At this stage it does not appear those hearings will go ahead. Professor Ford has requested that the FBI do a quick general review of the case prior to hearings, which is standard in these cases (e.g. Anita Hill) and is what's normally done, but requires political authorization which the Republicans are choosing to withhold out of general spite and desire to be jerks.
The co-accused Mark Judge changed his story from "I don't recall" to "It definitely didn't happen" and then the moment it was suggested he might testify under oath on Monday changed back to "I don't recall, and I definitely don't want to testify under oath".
Meanwhile Professor Ford's story has received yet more confirmation as another person has reported they heard about something like this happening at the time.
But since Professor Ford seems unwilling to testify on Monday without the FBI first doing a general review of the case, and Republicans are stonewalling that and pushing for the publicized Monday committee hearing without any FBI review... it might mean Kavanaugh is the only one who ends up testifying on Monday."I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump

As for the FBI, it's not within their jurisdiction because no federal laws were broken. This is a matter for local and state authorities, but since Ford can't remember when the alleged incident happened, where it happened, or who was even at this supposed party, there's literally nothing for law enforcement to go on.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
