      Be very clear: This is a political document, nothing more. It is not a legal document from a prosecutor. Mitchell wasn’t allowed to continue questioning Kavanaugh, has not been allowed to chase down any leads, and, in any event, this isn’t a criminal trial.https://twitter.com/seungminkim/status/1046593627202498560 …

      All the folks in my mentions: I’m not responding individually. Partisan counsel for committees write partisan “internal” memos all the time that are then obtained by journalists. They’re political documents aimed at moving the political needle, not legal documents. That’s all.

          The point is that Mitchell is not working as a sex crimes prosecutor here. She’s working as a partisan lawyer for the Republicans on the Judiciary Committee. That’s why she was hired, and that’s why she signed it using that title.

          You people are a joke. I can't wait to see the flip if a Republican woman accuses a Democrat of groping her 40 years ago. She won't be heard. Instead, like Juanita Broaddrick & Kathleen Willey, she'll be attacked or ignored. Leftists are pro-woman as much as pro-black. Not at all

          As a former prosecutor, everything Ms Mitchell has outlined is correct. You cannot dismiss all of Ford's inconsistent statements. That is one of the biggest ways you assess credibility.

          Partisan reporters write partisan articles and partisan Tweets. We expect this from people like you. Your reputation is gone. Just keep writing the DNC talking points.
