Brett Kavanaugh now under FBI investigation

[koriwhat]

Why is it a trainwreck? Is Jake Tapper a litigator and is Avenatti obligated to show his hands on live TV?

She already said she's willing to testify and go to the FBI. All under oath.

Like usual right wingers think this is somehow a win.

CNN good now.

right wingers

That is funny. But Jake Tapper is the only guy I trust in the news on any network. And yes, that includes Foxnews. He calls the shots as he sees them (I think his critiques of Trump were dead on) and he calls out both sides for their inconsistencies. Wish more news people were like him.

You're a lawyer?
You see nothing wrong with how Kavanaugh's alleged victim is being treated? You keep repeating that the FBI has zero to investigate? Seriously?

Ok- just humor us;

(a) You are the alleged sexual assault victims attorney - the defense is telling you - no witnesses, no fbi investigation, no delay -gotta take the stand in 3 days, the jury has made comments regarding your client being "mixed-up" - and have pretty much stated that the accused suspect is pretty much gonna walk. They refused an investigation and said - "it was too long ago - nothing to find there" - there was another WITNESS - but he told the prosecutor "I don't want to testify under oath" and the prosecutor said "ok-sure"
-- Are you happy with this for your victim/client? -- Are the scales of justice evenly applied here?


(b) You are Kavanaughs attorney - the prosecutor is telling you - "he will walk" - the jury has been holding "war room sessions" all week and coaching him on how to answer questions, the prosecutor has disallowed any independent investigation even though the standard practice has always been to allow an fbi background to be completed or re-opened whenever new allegations surface but they winked at you and said "don't worry - the president believes your client and will back you 100%
-- Are you happy being the attorney in this situation?

A or B seems legally fair to you?

Since you are a lawyer.

If I was her attorney (and I'm not a criminal attorney), I would tell her to file a complaint with the Maryland police department. There is no statute of limitations on a rape allegation. I would tell her to have them investigate. Before I went public with the allegation, I would make sure that she could clearly articulate where she was, when it happened, who was there, who's house it was, how she got there, and where she went after. I also wouldn't go to the media and politicize. I would have handled it privately and quietly and if the Maryland police decided there was a case, then it would become public.

But that's not anything close to what happened here because it has been treated like a political hit job. Unfortunately. That's why I tend to think it is a hoax. Answer the questions above, and then I'd see if I change my mind about the allegation.

I noticed you didn't answer the question.

I will ask it again, for Spurs Homer, since you saw fit to ignore a fair question.

Gorsuch was not a painful change for the left...[answers other post].

I'm going to do you a favor. Ignore Avenatti. Sure he's excellent at trolling Trump, but the guy has the stink of attention all over him. He gives lawyers a bad name, and we already have a bad name. His affidavit is so lawyered to shout big, ugly things like drugging girls and gang rape without really making a real claim against Kavanaugh. It creates the impression that he was a gang rapist and drugging girls to the casual reader while having deniability if anyone ever accuses the affiant of lying about Kavanaugh doing the raping and drugging.

If you want to stop this confirmation, it's going to be Ford that does it.

(facepalm)

That is the definition of what a lawyer does in a courtroom, provides the court their clients claims.

Wow, that is some weapons grade stupidity. Careful where you point that.

(edit)

What are you going to do for an encore?

A lawyer does more than present client claims in court. They represent the client, speak on behalf of the coient and argue in favor of the client wether with judge or opposing lawyers

its fair to say Avenati did a terrible job in the Tapper interview

Just sick but not surprising of the deplorables. Y'all don't deserve to have children with this mentality.

First, I don't have any obligation to answer any hypothetical. Second, I don't offer loaded hypotheticals that do not reflect the facts of the case and the other potential ways to resolve the issue. I gave you an answer and that is the right answer, which is more than I need to do. Ford has big problems with her story as far as giving it weight, I've noted those issues over and over.

You don't need to make believe that Ford hasn't had time to get her story straight. She should've had it straight before going to Sen. Feinstein and she has had months to get ready for this day. Glaring in all of this is that her side is the first one that wanted another hearing, until they were granted it, and then they wanted an investigation with the FBI.

Also, your hypothetical isn't even clear. Are you talking about a court of law? If so, then your hypothetical makes no sense and has no reflection on the reality of how the process works.

Avanetti was totally dodging. If you have smoking gun evidence of gang rape, you don't lead people on. You throw it out right now and kill the confirmation in its tracks while winning the adoration of the entire left wing base. If you have nothing, you pretend to have something and string things along to delay. Jake Tapper makes it so obvious that this is a hack job.

When that gang rapist loses his nomination.

On the flip side, this has to be one of the worst arguments in favor of Kavanaugh. You can say that what a person does as a teenager should not define him for the rest of his life. You shouldn't argue that groping people is just fine because it's done all the time.

Damn son, gonna have to call you "hate her" instead of hater. All those misogynistic posts I'm seeing from you.

Tbf, that same argument was used defend drunk driving on here just the other day.

"does either seem fair" to you is pretty simple question, if one was being intellectually honest. I assume in this case the words were simple enough not to allow for much ambiguity.

I can see why it might trouble you.
