Like, did you help the turtle flip itself back over?

In many cases they will have their answers during the pre-questioning process. Especially from first timers. If you’ve never had one before it can be scary. You’ll find yourself giving longer answers to seem honest.

Doubtful that this will move Senator Collins but it can’t hurt.

Is that the “Maine” newspaper of that Portland? ;-)

See, even non-Dads can make Dad Jokes!

Exactly. Examples:

Have you ever mowed the grass?
Has anybody ever mowed the grass for you?
Have you ever paid anybody to mow the grass?
Are you aware of anybody paying somebody to mow the grass for you?
Have you mowed the grass in the last two weeks?
Do you intend to mow the grass again?
Do any of your friends mow the grass?
Do any of your friends pay people to mow the grass for them?

And on and on until you’ve exhausted mowing the grass.

And that’s exactly what triggers their machine to think you might be concealing something.

What the hell did you do to the lawn? ;)

He did the RICO. Clearly.

Jesus Bleeding Christ. Just when you thought things were already as vile as possible.

The voice of morality. You know other than the pedophilia stuff he ignored. The real issue is a black dude said something and a white dude was called on his bullshit.

Kavanaugh perjured himself on Friday at least a couple of times: the Ralph Club membership being explained because he had a “weak stomach” (yeah, Brett: weak after you pounded a six pack in less than an hour, maybe), or “Renate Alumnus” not implying sexual escapades with said girl. Just transparent lies. He could have answered truthfully and said, “I’m not proud of that, but that’s not me any more” and no one would have batted an eye. But NO, he stuck with his “good Catholic boy” story, with the “righteous anger of the aggrieved privileged white man” attitude.

So there’s the lying under oath. Also, EVEN IF he’s completely innocent of having assaulted Dr. Ford when she was 15, his opening partisan rant, conspiracy-theory-spinning and later outrageous evasiveness and belligerence to Senator Klobuchar when she asked about possible blackouts from drinking (at first he didn’t answer the question and turned it around on her, which was unbelievable and would never have been tolerated coming from a female witness doing the same to say, Chuck Grassley) show that he does not have the temperament necessary to hold any federal judgeship, let alone a Supreme Court seat. End of story.

Jesus Christ.

Instead of investigating Swetnick’s claims, the White House counsel’s office has given the FBI a list of witnesses they are permitted to interview, according to several people who discussed the parameters on the condition of anonymity.

But as of now, the FBI cannot ask the supermarket that employed Judge for records verifying when he was employed there, one of the sources was told. Ford said in congressional testimony Thursday that those records would help her narrow the time frame of the alleged incident which she recalls happening some time in the summer of 1982 in Montgomery County, Maryland.

Two sources familiar with the investigation said the FBI will also not be able to examine why Kavanaugh’s account of his drinking at Yale University differs from those of some former classmates, who have said he was known as a heavy drinker.

But of course. Total whitewash.

This is how One Party States get started.

Frankly, I doubt they have the records anymore.

3197

That is quite possible, but barring the FBI from even trying? That’s just patent obstruction of justice.

Caveat: IANAL as they say, but it sure seems like shenanigans.

3198

Maybe it’s an evolving process where they have to approve of the scope of the investigation one step at a time. Like the quote from the article says, “But as of now…”
