monitoring Trump and relevant contemporary events

Here's a real question...

Why isn't Brett Kavanaugh demanding an FBI investigation?

What are Republicans hiding about him? What don’t they want you to know?

And it was the Dems that ran the Hearing.
They were the party in power in the Senate at the time

The Utah Republican’s response to Hill’s allegations against Thomas was to accuse her “story” of being “too contrived” and stolen from a book in 1991:

“And there’s no question in my mind she was coached by special interest groups,” (Hatch) told the Deseret News in an interview. “Her story’s too contrived. It’s so slick it doesn’t compute.” He said key signs of that include two charges she made for the first time on Friday, which research by Republicans showed may have been borrowed from a Kansas sexual harassment case and the book, “The Exorcist.”

For example, Hill claimed Thomas in a meeting with her once said someone “put a pubic hair” on his Coke can as he picked it up off a desk. Hatch noted that on page 70 in the book, “The Exorcist” — which he held up during hearings on Saturday — a similar episode occurred where a person claimed she found an alien pubic hair in a glass of gin.

Hatch claimed Hill confused Thomas with another man and couldn’t change her story due to pressure from “feminist women” in a 2010 interview with CNN:

“I think she actually believed and talked herself into believing what she said. There was a sexual harasser at that time, according to the sources I had, and he was her supervisor, he just wasn’t Clarence Thomas. I think she transposed that to where she believed it because she was outed by the feminist women at that time and she couldn’t change her mind after — she couldn’t change her tune. And that’s what happened.”

Now Hatch, 27 years later, is saying that the Kavanaugh's accuser was "mixed up". Hatch hasn't changed his modus operandi in 27 years.

No, but if it had been brought up during the committee hearings it could have been addressed, investigated, and Justice Kavanaugh could have defended himself.

but I don’t have a dictionary that helps me translate crazy-pants into English.

Let’s just say that Dr. Ford’s life has been ruined

was establishing a hypothetical scenario

“Some critics say that one excerpt of my speech is evidence that I oppose filling a Supreme Court vacancy in an election year,” Mr. Biden said. “This is not an accurate description of my views on the subject.”

One plugged-in Republican tells me that several top GOP lawmakers have told colleagues that they hope Ford declines to show up for the hearing even as they issue statements urging her to do so.

Every Competent GOP strategist knows the optics of octogenarians like Grassley and Hatch interrogating Dr. Ford as if they were commanders from the Handmaids Tale will create an electoral disaster in Nov. McConnell is first among them. Of course they don’t want her to testify

How does Bill Mitchell know that the Mueller investigation has no evidence

It was Mattis who made the comment about Trump's lack of intellect, not Kelly.

Rather funny, not to mention odd, you talking about evidence, hightor.
