        Marty, And how many sexual assaults or forensic interviews have you ever investigated?Professionally, I’ve investigated at least a 100 in my career. Dr. Ford’s testimony was very credible and should have been investigated by the @FBI. @Scotus doesn’t need another misogynist.

        Ford asserts bald allegations with zero evidence to support her claim. Ruins a mans reptation and career potentially. And in our deranged America, we actually have citizens who believe her; not because they genuinely believe her, but because they WANT to for political purposes.

        1. Feinstein referred lawer. Political stunt. 2. Lawyers clearly wanted hearing to happen in DC. Political stunt. 3. Paid for lie detector test but never sent her to be interviewed by a qualified person. Political stunt. Take away!!

        I was drugged in a bar and remember little of the next few hours except flickers. I only had 3 drinks but people thought I was quite drunk since the drug amplified the alcohol. This is why rapist drug women because it renders them unable to recall details & makes them at fault.

        Replying to @LoMai9 @BBCWorld

        Often, it is very unclear to a victim that they've been drugged. You just wake up wondering why hours are missing from the night before. I felt so weird though, I went to doctor and they are who confirmed I'd been roofied. Many victims will just be left wondering what happened

        It's a shitshow. In so many ways. The grandstanding is disgusting. The answers weak at best, contradictory at worst. The way she ended up breaking the story and how it ended up where it is now is suspicious as well

        Has something happened to her? Willing to believe that. Was it kavanaugh? Not convinced. By far
