Suddenly, the left is not so interested in screaming “women must be believed” at the top of their lungs. Mitchell is know nothing hack, a shill for the GOP, a liar, and a monster doing her master’s bidding.
Rachel Mitchell finds: ‘he said she said’ cases are tough to prove. ‘This case is even weaker than that'
Last week, when sex crimes prosecutor Rachel Mitchell was questioning Christine Blasey Ford, she took a little flak from the right. There wasn’t a lot of it, but she did get dinged by a few writers who thought she was a bit of a milquetoast. Her questions, they argued, weren’t tough enough.
I disagreed. I thought she was doing exactly what she was supposed to be doing. She wasn’t there to be combative, or to tear into Ford’s barely coherent story, she was there to get the details of the charges directly from the accuser. Nothing more.
