        Very disappointed in your headline. You used his name. Giving him legitimacy of sorts. He is an alleged sexual assaulter. Her name is Dr. Ford. Now fix your flipping headline.

        I wasn’t going to say anything but I think now is appropriate 😢 Mrs Ford brushed past me and touched my arse on a bus in the early nineties. There I said it. #WhyIDidntReportTit

        It’s almost like the Republicans are afraid of what an FBI investigation will find. The SCOTUS nominee isn’t demanding an investigation. He isn’t taking a lie detector (if they are so easily beaten, then why not? It couldn’t hurt unless he’s afraid he won’t pass)

        He’s already been accused of perjuring himself and gotten away with it, so him lying in front of the senate again would be no big deal. He’s been coached on the questioning and how to respond by the White House for days now. Who do they think they’re fooling?

        This entire situation is disgusting. It’s disgusting that someone, likely on the democratic side leaked Dr. Ford’s name to the press to force her into coming forward to help their agenda. It’s also disgusting how the republicans are sure he didn’t do it because he said so. SMH

        I prefer the description as victim not accuser.

        Actually, that is not true.... as of now it is "providing her first hand account" i.e. They are going to show up with a sworn statement and she will not be there. Read the email carefully

        Lol I guess even the UK keeps up with this. Hopefully men aren't being falsely accused out there either.https://www.dailywire.com/news/36183/watch-women-host-istandwithbrett-conference-ryan-saavedra?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_content=062316-news&utm_campaign=dwbrand …
