I got a lot grief when I expressed my skepticism about Rachel Mitchell the night she was named as the GOP's hired gun to interrogate Dr. Ford.

I regret nothing.

After her bumbling questioning of Dr. Ford & complete lack of questions to Kavanaugh, GOP's interrogator Rachel Mitchell, who's hoping for a federal judgeship from Trump, told the GOP Senators who paid her, she wouldn't have prosecuted Kavanaugh. Shocker.

Leonid Teyf, a wealthy Russian national living in NC accused of money laundering and plotting a murder-for-hire, has ties to Russian oligarch Yevgeny Prigozhin ["Putin's chef"], who was indicted by Mueller election tampering.

NEW ––> Trump admin makes FALSE case for crisis at border, laying foundation for Trump to declare a PHONY national emergency to build his useless wall. [FIFY, @PhilipRucker]

If there's such a crisis, why didn't Trump use all of the money he was allotted for the wall last year?

To avoid questions, Mark Harris, GOP candidate at the center of NC's disputed 9th District race which is in limbo over voter fraud allegations [against Harris' campaign], ran out an emergency exit, set off the fire alarm, and then sped away in a waiting car. WTAF 😂
omg
My bad. Mark Harris, who's under investigation for unprecedented election fraud perpetrated by his campaign, didn't speed away in a waiting car tonight – that happened when he was fleeing from reporters last month too. omfg 😂

Kavanaugh whines about left-leaning money but he is steeped in dark money including one organization that spent millions & does not have a biz license.

@RandyRainbow nails it

Kavanaugh is "little boy screaming" because he didn't get what he wanted.

#KavanaughHearings has so far proven this is just delay tactics by Democrats.
Dr Ford clearly has the ability to board air craft... She couldn't do this Monday because she had to drive to the hearing she factually flew to. 😒
Said didn't understand offer to be understand the offer to be interviewed at her home... If we are to believe that, sounds like a failure of her lawyers. So surprise Katz was suggested by DiFi...
This lie detector test that is pointed to, conveniently the vague 2 questions of this lie detector test was never mentioned. Paraphrased, is your statement true and did any one tell you what to say. She said no. Why not ask specific questions??? HELLO?!westernjournal.com/fords-lawyers-…

🔴 The Kavanaugh-Ford hearing has begun in Washington, D.C.—We are live streaming it at facebook.com/democracynow/v… and on our homepage at democracynow.org
Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley, Senate Judiciary Committee chair, is delivering opening remarks. He says he "laments" how this hearing comes about, apologizes to Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, accuses attorneys for Deborah Ramirez and Julie Swetnick for "stonewalling"
Sen. Chuck Grassley pointedly quotes Joe Biden's comments during Clarence Thomas's 1991 confirmation hearing to justify why he believes no FBI investigation is warranted for sexual assault accusations against Brett Kavanaugh #KavanaughHearings

I'm a sociologist who studies adolescent sexual violence. On this thread, I will be live tweeting the #Kavanaugh hearing, chiming in with sociological insights and research findings.
Full disclosure--I will probably step away for parts of it. While many conservatives have cast feminists as people who rejoice at allegations of sexual assault against powerful men, this is a painful process for us. We know survivors. We are survivors. And I will need breaks.
It does not bode well that the beginning of this hearing is starting with equating #Kavanaugh and #Ford's experiences with harassment following Dr. Ford's allegations. They are absolutely not the same.

The worst part of these white and Latina GOP women saying these things is NOT ONCE did they offer concern about any victim of sexual assault.

The woman in the turtleneck, Lourdes, said she thought Kavanaugh had likely dumped Ford and she was getting back at him.

Awful.
Also, these aren't all just ladies off the street being asked these questions by @CNN. They are GOP operatives.

So this woman, Lourdes, who is floating the idea that Ford is a vengeful sociopath is actually working for the Republican Party.
