It wasn't just him, every witness she gave as being present at this alleged party has denied any such party taking place, including her good friend who has said she has never met Kavanaugh.
i agree w you Rose, obviously if he remember, then he will be part of the problem and probably facing serious charges again him too. So, it is very convenient for Mark J. not to remember specifically that night that Dr. Ford had told many even years ago, before all of this came up ...Now if FBI offer a deal to Mark J, maybe then he will remember more what happened w Dr. Ford and Kavanaugh...
The Republicans do NOT want Marke Judge to testify because his book paints him and by extension Brett Kavanaugh who is depicted in his book as unsympathetic, belligerent characters. Because he is basically a co-conspirator in this incident one cannot expect him to corroborate Dr Ford’s testimony if it’s true, so it’s hard to rely be certain if his testimony is truthful because of the self-preservation bias. An interesting point that Dr Ford made about the other people present in the House is also very telling: the party itself would be unremarkable for people who did not know what happened upstairs and therefore would be unlikely to recollect this party among many. That could be said to some extent for Judge and Kavanaugh because parties like that were common place and inappropriate behavior was commonplace as well and therefore unremarkable.
Bret is an covert narcissist.. the mask finally fell. I grew up with a covert narcissistic parent. No one ever saw that rage but the kids at home... my parent was an angel to the community and friends. The religious piety persona, the generosity outside, the shyness and need to please to make good impression with those powerful or respectable to bask in others glory. I am not surprised that professional friends and colleagues never get to see it.
L V yep me too I’m an a adult child of an alcoholic! And my father was loved by all his friends and never seen my mothers two black eyes of numerous black eyes I grew up hating my father because of it! I felt bad all my life wanting my mother to divorce his ass! I witnessed what an alcoholic is all about!!
Seriously? She only knows when this happened by when Mark worked at Safeway? _That_ makes you believe her? No. If this happened to her at all, Kavanaugh or not, she would _know_ without a shadow of a doubt how old she was! She wouldn't have originally given a 5 year window! 'Oh, sometime between the ages of 15 and 20'... I don't even think so. Ask _any_ sexual assault or rape victim and I guarantee they will know how old they were when it happened!! And that's not even the only incredibly important thing that most survivors never forget, that she didn't know. These people that believe her are either totally clueless, or they're intentionally blinding themselves to the truth. Probably never wanting him on the supreme court to begin with. This is just the perfect ammunition. The fact that these incredibly smart, succesful people believe her, is mind-blowing! Or, maybe they don't, and they're just claiming they do because again, they didn't want him on the supreme court before a word about this was ever said. This is such a sickening display of what has come to be typical political behavior, and an embarrassment for our entire country in front of the world.
To all those saying that Kav. was to angry. Why don't you go into any court house in the U.S. and tell the judge that he is a low life gang rapist, and see what happens... Good Luck...
Very interesting points he had! This guy would be a great guest for those prime time news networks. Fox news should definitely call him. He'd be very valuable in helping to inform their viewers with truthful insight and a broader scope to view on this case.
He isn’t cornered unless he’s guilty. There’s no need to feel cornered when you’re being offered the services of the FBI to clear your name. Clearly he is guilty of something and attempting to keep it in the dark
Leslie Sinclair Isn't it true that that isn't any real evidence and your interpretation only shows what you want to be true and the outcome you want? Me, I known what I want to be true, and why I hope that (& know that that doesn't make it true either). I also thought he wanted the hearing first before the FBI investigation, rather than none at all.......no?
I disagree, feeling cornered has nothing to do with guilt or innocence, it has more to do with being constantly attacked. It is extremely difficult to prove a negative and that is the position they put him in when they threw out guilty until Proven innocent. Think of how an animal will fight when backed into a corner by something bigger than he is. He will attack back with everything he has, that doesn't mean the animal was guilty, just fighting for his life. I would imagine that is how Kavanaugh feels right now.
As an experienced judge, Kavanaugh was definitely a disappointment as he was rude, insulting, condescending and out of control, especially when he was supposed to be interviewing for a promotion. If anyone had performed the way he did during any interview would likely be asked to leave immediately. For someone who clearly could not contain himself under pressure and displayed such fiery temperament and demeanor, the question is whether he is good enough for a position in the highest court, or any court for that matter.
Now I see why he move his name plate? To hide the big clock so he know how much blaning on to run out the clock⁉️ He kept touching the clock. He wasn’t there to prove his innocence. He was there to run out the clock.
“Both of them were remarkable, in different ways.” Ain’t that the truth. Dr. Ford was balanced, credible and measured. Kavanaugh seemed like an angry drunk uncle that you don’t want to sit beside at Thanksgiving dinner.
He was a rabid animal caught in a trap. Angry as hell as he has never before been held responsible and his mask just melted away. So arrogant like he is entitled to this SC position and how dare they question me. SO UNFIT.
who would think a Judge would cry actual tears during a public hearing? what wouold he say to a person he was judging if the person broke down and cried?
Reminds me of an opportunist who wanted to take center stage and profess his pious outrage over how a conservative nominee isn't being given a fair shake, who cares if he did it? - just ram him through so he can take the side of corporations on nearly every case - just like Gorsuch will
This channel provided this part of Kavanaugh''s hearing in the most unbiased way. I totally agree that the anger from both Graham and Kavanaugh were theatrical, as it is more of a cover-up rather. Who would believe his explanation about the Devil Triangle? Or Ramirez Alumni ? Then also lying about the stolen email from Democrats.
If you are clean on the matter - you do not behave as he did. Looks like he is guilty of something and reacting when the truth was approached during questioning, Furthermore, not inviting an FBI investigation to clear his name - substantiates this. Fear of being found out.
kavenaughs rage was not from a person falsely accused it was from a place of privilege, audaciousness and defiance..it was not i didnt do this as is his cloak would be, but it was actually-- i worked hard for the chance to be here at this point and these people have no right to dig so deep into the past over things i feel were buried and wish to be irrelevant factors present day...his tears for his daughter and family was not because of his innocence but because of the innocence he sees in her and that she would be exposed to the fact that her father was a monster during certain times in his life...his fight is for non-disclosure of his activities and not for his innocence... he is contemptuous of a minority side of the Senate blocking his career path and inadvertantly making him suffer consequences for his own actions-- actions that privileged folk feel privileged to notwithstand consequences for...the allegations would be devestating for those who love and care about a person to come to the realization of and the hard work to aspire to the elitist circles too much to lose, hence it would be telling that his disdain for the democrats in the senate, his rage and his lying under oath would be a warranted strategy for kavenaugh...he has nothing to lose by lying and putting on this charade..everything to lose if his allegations are corroborated...
Exactly , Kavanaugh`s own calendar seems to indicate that . Still , as that was coming out , Lindsay Graham pulled a deflection move . ( Ford even said that it would help to know when Judge was working at Safeway since that would help to narrow the dates down . )
Everytime I see Kavanaugh's testimony his wife looks like she's on the verge of tears and barely holding it back and together.. Poor lady and her children but her husband should not be placed on the Supreme Court.. Too evasive
NOV.2.2018 WHY DOES CHRISTINE BLASEY FORD NEED A LAWYER BY HER SIDE.? WHY DOES ANYONE HAVE TO "READ ANYTHING" ABOUT AN EXPERIENCE ONE HAVE BEEN THROUGH IN THE PAST.? AND IN MAKING A VERBAL DECLARATION ONE NEEDS A LAWYER TO BE PRESENT ON ONES SIDE.?
Mark Judge is not STUPID he will said he don't remember because if he says he there he would put himself in a place that an alleged crime was committed. Kavanaugh got his denies roll from TRUMP'S play book.
She's followed his career her entire adult life, so for her to be mistaken, she would've had to have mistaken his identity then, and she knew who Brett was, clearly, even if he claims he didn't know who she was!!! You're at a small gathering, you know the people there, or at least who they are!! He was clearly either a terrible guy, or a blackout drunk, and if that's so, he has no idea what he did in those states!!! Although, I think he knew exactly what he did, but who knows. All I know is he did it, and he'll never be legitimate in my eyes!!!
He said he would go along with anything the committee recommended. Which to me would have included an extra FBI investigation if the committee agreed to it.
for some reason they want to use the word gathering, call it what it's "a party". synonyms for gathering: assembly, meeting, convention, rally, turnout, congress, convocation, conclave, council, synod, forum; congregation, audience, crowd, group, throng, mass, multitude; informal get-together; formal concourse "she rose to address the gathering", "we are going to the family gathering". I don't see a party included listed as synonyms, I guess snobs use a hire form of a word to express a drunk in party.
One of them is absolutely lying and with all his hemming and hawing I believe that Kavanaugh lied and both of them know it for sure. GIVE KAVANAUGH A LIE DETECTOR TEST!
I try not to write things in my calendar if I did something wrong, just saying. I mean if everyone wrote what they did wrong on their calendar policing would definitely change.
Here is a tip no one seemed to notice. When Brett KAVANAUGH was being asked by senator if the character BART O’Kavanaugh in Mark Judges book was based on him. Brett denied , it was fictitious character who mark made up as part of rehab from alcohol and drug abuse. But in Marks yr. book he referred to old pal as BART. I can almost hear mark speaking in fake Irish accent. “Well,well mr.O’Kavanaugh or may I call you Bart. O’Ive bin a hearin’ dat you’s bouys bin oup ta no goud. Dis BOOFING will only eand op bean a pain en da arse.
Here's a calm and spectacularly well-informed explanation of why Kavanaugh is clearly not fit to take a seat as a Supreme Court justice. His aggression and demeaning behaviour while under oath in front of a body with contempt powers was astonishing and bizarre. It doesn't matter what's "normal", judges need to be exemplary.
Being angry is all he can do...His reputation is forever damaged. Why didn't she confronted him before...it doesn't make sense. She is a strong woman I can't see her as a victim.
Perhaps the Senate should look at his belligerence towards the female members of that body and not answering questions directly. Yes they both have a right to their truth and their anger.
All of this is just so sad. Our family is split and talking to each other over this...since it seems everyone in America has lost the ability to discuss things rationally.
Yes he would be upset about his family however as a judge (one of the highest respected profession for being intelligent, fair etc) you would think he would not behave this way in a formal meeting. I think it was a smoke screen. And I said before whether guilty of the assault or not his behaviour, anger, disrespect etc only proves that he would not make a good supreme court judge. People crack under pressure and when cornered however again you would not expect this from a judge. Ford didn't behave this way. She was violated and was questioned whether it was true or not and criticized for not remembering details. She was calm and truthful even when it did not help her.
I too think that everyone's so focused on emotions. I'm a survivor of assault and while I found Dr. Ford's testimony moving, that wasn't what convinced me she was telling the truth. It was a seemingly unimportant statement she made, about wanting a second front door in her house. That struck me as an odd moment in her testimony and I think a lot of people at first didn't know what to do with that piece of information. But as she went on I realized that her trauma had manifested itself in this exact way. She was still obsessing over escape plans, as if she's in a state of being hyper alert till this day. Someone who'd lie about a traumatic event would talk about something more relatable, like depression, anxiety, or something more commonly known like excessive washing habits, struggles with intimacy, physical contact or trustissues. But she chose something so odd and unfamiliar, like wanting a second front door. And I understood her way of thinking, because my brain was also conditioned by trauma and I often fail to make sense to people. But a second front door isn't just a goof, it's a metaphor for control. That aspect of her testimony convinced me she must have been assaulted and if she was assaulted, there is no way she doesn't remember exactly who it was and how it happened.
...that comment made me believe her even less!!! Total BS embellishing a story for her own personal gains over the years....talk about playing the "victim card" ...the description of what she went through ..."I thought he was going to kill me" You actually bought that line of BS!!!! What a joke and a travesty
After Brett K. gets a year sober in Alcoholics Anonymous. He can ask his AA sponsor if he can be a judge on the Supreme Court. He has to work the twelve steps first, just like the rest of us.
Oh too much opinions kavanugh 👍 👍 is clean I hope and pray that everything cleared up,if you think he's different of course I don't blame him,he has to defend himself I can see clearly the man is truthful.his friends get jealous maybe?
Insightful points of view from Mr Osler. He brings wisdom ,& calm to the mayhem. Come to mama! It's a shame Kavanaugh didn't get some advice from him before exposing that deep seated aggression of his for all to see.
In my opinion Kavanaugh should not get the nomination to the supreme court but - good news - he shouild get a nomination for an Oscar for that performance .
The interviewer asked if we should hear from Mark Judge. Of course, the FBI, the senators and the public SHOULD hear from Mark Judge and others (although a one-week investigation, though expedient for Republicans, is inadequate to fully probe the matter). But Mr. Judge is not an impartial party and, given that he was a close friend of Kavanaugh and that they both had issues with alcohol for years and display very poor judgement and behavior, Mark Judge can not be relied upon to tell the truth. If he is allied with the Republican party, then he will feel pressure to speak well of Kavanaugh regardless of whether Kavanaugh sexually assaulted Ford. Such people often pull ranks and take their lies to the grave. Integrity, honesty, truth, fairness and compassion are not of great importance to them. I still hope that Mark Judge tells the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
You guys are unbelievable who would not be extremely pissed off of an accusation like this. I wouldn’t have a very good demeanor either and I don’t think anybody else would
Even the guy on the show says he did not see the behaviour that was alledged or even hear anything about it...i hope this case will change the system of hearings where the privacy of the victim is respected and things arent put in the public like with this case...no matter what, the democratic party made some bad choices when it came to the annonimity of the victim..
Her testimony does not hold water. Is anybody talking about her experience with lie detection and family ties with FBI? - on the other hand he was very credible and righteously angry at all the smear
It is justifiable anger !!! I would have been just as pissed if not more!! When you are innocent and being accused of something so evil and somerhing you know u didnt do sometging that can ruin your life for ever !! Yea i would be very angery and so would anyone in his shoes!!!
When you are being falsely accused and your family is being threatened you remain angry! He did not refuse FBI investigation, he said he would do anything the committee wanted, but it was up to them to ask for FBI. Get the facts straight!
Cavanah said when asked about FBI investigation - whatever this senate committee decides - he knew it was not his place to ask for the FBI - it was up to the senate committee - guys don't obfuacate (The obfuscation might be either unintentional or intentional (although intent usually is connoted), and is accomplished with circumlocution (talking around the subject), the use of jargon (technical language of a profession), and the use of an argot (ingroup language) of limited communicative value to outsiders.) This whole witch hunt is just a big show trial by the media - be fair and just in your judgement for the same way you judge other will be how you yourself will be judged.

I am wondering how Dr. Ford knew the names of the people was at a party that never took place but was listed on his calendar
Mark Judge was able to write a book but now cannot remember! I say BS!
It wasn't just him, every witness she gave as being present at this alleged party has denied any such party taking place, including her good friend who has said she has never met Kavanaugh.
Tim Tullock Lol, these people are too stupid.
@@brandyb2931 Wrong! They said that they "didn't recall". Big difference.

Bret is an covert narcissist.. the mask finally fell. I grew up with a covert narcissistic parent. No one ever saw that rage but the kids at home... my parent was an angel to the community and friends. The religious piety persona, the generosity outside, the shyness and need to please to make good impression with those powerful or respectable to bask in others glory. I am not surprised that professional friends and colleagues never get to see it.
Covert narcissist, overt liar.

Unfit, unhinged, unjudicial unacceptable for the most important position in our Democracy. Give us another choice!!
Of upmost importance this man should not be on the Supreme Court. Secondly, he should be impeached and removed from the Federal Court.

I don't see a party included listed as synonyms, I guess snobs use a hire form of a word to express a drunk in party.

I too think that everyone's so focused on emotions. I'm a survivor of assault and while I found Dr. Ford's testimony moving, that wasn't what convinced me she was telling the truth. It was a seemingly unimportant statement she made, about wanting a second front door in her house. That struck me as an odd moment in her testimony and I think a lot of people at first didn't know what to do with that piece of information. But as she went on I realized that her trauma had manifested itself in this exact way. She was still obsessing over escape plans, as if she's in a state of being hyper alert till this day.
Someone who'd lie about a traumatic event would talk about something more relatable, like depression, anxiety, or something more commonly known like excessive washing habits, struggles with intimacy, physical contact or trustissues. But she chose something so odd and unfamiliar, like wanting a second front door. And I understood her way of thinking, because my brain was also conditioned by trauma and I often fail to make sense to people. But a second front door isn't just a goof, it's a metaphor for control. That aspect of her testimony convinced me she must have been assaulted and if she was assaulted, there is no way she doesn't remember exactly who it was and how it happened.
...that comment made me believe her even less!!! Total BS embellishing a story for her own personal gains over the years....talk about playing the "victim card" ...the description of what she went through ..."I thought he was going to kill me" You actually bought that line of BS!!!! What a joke and a travesty
Well, I guess you don't know how trauma works then.
Valhalla The second door was for an attached apartment. She didn't mention that tho... But you keep on believing if you want.
I'm just here to compliment the coffee table, area rug, chairs, and end table - DAMN that's some lovely furniture! I'm out✌
Anger is going to be a problem for him? He is being called a rapist. I would be pretty angery myself.
good discussion
After Brett K. gets a year sober in Alcoholics Anonymous. He can ask his AA sponsor if he can be a judge on the Supreme Court. He has to work the twelve steps first, just like the rest of us.
She sounds excellent actor
Drinking age was 19 in 1982, 20 in 1983 and 21 in 1984, so he never drank legally as he stated.
Is that a boy or a girl in the sweater vest (or a combination of both)?
I'd prefer evidence to feelings. Who could blame judge for being angry, smeared without one iota of facts.
He isn't wearing his wedding ring. Maybe wife knows and is pissed but power and prestige is more important than justice and honesty.
Awesome, intelligent and legal based discussion!
Reading some of these comments, I agree with Lord Byron: "The more I know humans, the more I love my dog......"
I agree with the start
Oh too much opinions kavanugh 👍 👍 is clean I hope and pray that everything cleared up,if you think he's different of course I don't blame him,he has to defend himself I can see clearly the man is truthful.his friends get jealous maybe?
Insightful points of view from Mr Osler. He brings wisdom ,& calm to the mayhem. Come to mama! It's a shame Kavanaugh didn't get some advice from him before exposing that deep seated aggression of his for all to see.
Nice revenge girl...but you hurt his family too...was that necessary?
He was drunk enough to black out. That's y even he is not sure , what skeletons will tumble out of the closet. That's y the fear of FBI investigation.
In my opinion Kavanaugh should not get the nomination to the supreme court but - good news - he shouild get a nomination for an Oscar for that performance .
if he could only say he was jealous . oh so obvious man
This guy is a prosecutor????wtf?????
"A judge with a good demeanor on the bench"
The interviewer asked if we should hear from Mark Judge. Of course, the FBI, the senators and the public SHOULD hear from Mark Judge and others (although a one-week investigation, though expedient for Republicans, is inadequate to fully probe the matter). But Mr. Judge is not an impartial party and, given that he was a close friend of Kavanaugh and that they both had issues with alcohol for years and display very poor judgement and behavior, Mark Judge can not be relied upon to tell the truth. If he is allied with the Republican party, then he will feel pressure to speak well of Kavanaugh regardless of whether Kavanaugh sexually assaulted Ford. Such people often pull ranks and take their lies to the grave. Integrity, honesty, truth, fairness and compassion are not of great importance to them. I still hope that Mark Judge tells the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
With friends like Mark Osler who needs enemies?
Maybe Osler should be a Justice. WAY more "judicious" than Kavanaugh.
You guys are unbelievable who would not be extremely pissed off of an accusation like this. I wouldn’t have a very good demeanor either and I don’t think anybody else would
I used to drink with Brett. So what.
I would love to see how this guy being interviewed would react if HE were the accused!!!
Even the guy on the show says he did not see the behaviour that was alledged or even hear anything about it...i hope this case will change the system of hearings where the privacy of the victim is respected and things arent put in the public like with this case...no matter what, the democratic party made some bad choices when it came to the annonimity of the victim..
The President is the only one to call the FBI in this case!
I wonder if Brett and his wife secretly still do that “ Devil’s Triangle?”🤔🤫
To the male host, ‘drug’ isn’t the past tense of ‘drag’...it’s ‘dragged’.
Anyone else notice, once things started going south for the repukes, Mitchell disappeared?
Really??? Looks like things are going south for dem old rats to me. South like straight to hell! BZZZ! You lose!
Her testimony does not hold water. Is anybody talking about her experience with lie detection and family ties with FBI? - on the other hand he was very credible and righteously angry at all the smear
It is justifiable anger !!! I would have been just as pissed if not more!! When you are innocent and being accused of something so evil and somerhing you know u didnt do sometging that can ruin your life for ever !! Yea i would be very angery and so would anyone in his shoes!!!
so youre supposed to be able to turn off your anger on a dime?
He was accused of RAPE that's why he was ANGRY.
what is up with kavanaughs face lol. thats the same face my brother makes and he has mental problems.
The mouth says RAGE to me. He is trying to not explode.
It's called Mealy Mouthed*
*afraid to speak frankly or straightforwardly.
Yeah, let people accuse you of a sexual assault and see if you can stay calm. If you are, you are only acting.
uh, he did say he was open to an fbi investigation.
When you are being falsely accused and your family is being threatened you remain angry! He did not refuse FBI investigation, he said he would do anything the committee wanted, but it was up to them to ask for FBI. Get the facts straight!
That coffee table is so hideous! Looks like a dead animal with legs stabbed into it.
there are no other witnesses its 36 years old
Cavanah said when asked about FBI investigation - whatever this senate committee decides - he knew it was not his place to ask for the FBI - it was up to the senate committee - guys don't obfuacate (The obfuscation might be either unintentional or intentional (although intent usually is connoted), and is accomplished with circumlocution (talking around the subject), the use of jargon (technical language of a profession), and the use of an argot (ingroup language) of limited communicative value to outsiders.) This whole witch hunt is just a big show trial by the media - be fair and just in your judgement for the same way you judge other will be how you yourself will be judged.
Ford told Feinstein before Kavanaugh was put on the list
Brett is a drunk.
Hey looked like Jim Carey in the movie Liar Liar
shinbudo ane exactly!
yep...incapable of lying.
