Nobody should hold their breath over the weekend waiting on Professor Christine Blasey Ford’s Big Tease about showing up for Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s hearings next week, because much more than their faces could turn blue.
“Will she or won’t she?” has become the front page headline of the day. “She wishes to testify, provided that we can agree on terms that are fair and which ensure her safety,” it said. The Washington Post reported that although Katz ruled out Monday in the email, a hearing with Ford “early next week” was possible.”Ford, about whom California Democrat Rep. Anna Eshoo said: 'She doesn't have a political bone in her body ... I believed her”, won’t be coming to any of the hearings looking for release from the 36-year-old, searing memory of being sexually harassed by Kavanaugh, but looking to advance the chance for #MeToo to detonate on the hearings. Throwing Kavanaugh into the #MeToo mix is the best way to sideline the Supreme Court hearings and and to bring Kavanaugh’s nomination to a dead end.
Gillibrand and Speier are but two of 59 Congresswomen digging up unproven sexual harassment against President Donald Trump.Only non-Democrats lose their jobs, families and integrity when #MeToo comes to take them down. Worst of all, average women at the mercy of rapists in poverty-stricken countries, who don’t have the privilege of elected office, get no help from #MeToo and are left to fend for themselves. If Ford’s a no-show at next week’s Kavanaugh hearings, Code Pink and the same screeching activists who had to be led our of last week’s hearings will be there to stump for her cause. It only takes $20-an-hour to bring activists out to protest with George Soros’ ‘non-profits’ handing out the cash.
“Hirono said she expected "the enlightened men in our country" to "rise up to say, 'We cannot continue the victimization and the smearing of someone like Dr. Ford.’"Meanwhile, speculation about Brett Kavanaugh’s unproven sexual harassment against Ford must continue on until other women can be brought forward by the media. The will-she-or-won’t-she brouhaha of Ford showing up will hang over the hearings like Damocles Sword. When Democrats have complete media attention, THE. SHOW.MUST.GO.ON!
