      Mitchell: Did anything happen at those other parties? Ford: There was no sexual assault. Did you want me to describe those parties?

      I was sort of hoping that Harris would ask Ford whether at those other parties Kavanaugh was really drunk. My guess is the answer is yes.

      Mitchell: Which of your two lawyers did Feinstein recommend. Ford: The Katz firm. Mitchell: Did you have follow-up w/Leland. Penalty of felony. Are you aware they have no knowledge. Ford: Leland texted me right afterward w/an apology.

      Ford: I didn't expect that PJ and Leland would remember. Nothing happened to them. Mr Judge is another matter. Mitchell: I understand. I've been really impressed today, bc you talk about norepinephrine and etc. Have you educated about best way to get to memory and truth?

      Mitchell: best way to get to truth with victims of trauma. This way is not the best way to do it. Did you know best way is a trained interviewer in one on one setting. To follow up. Did anybody ever advise you, to go get forensic interview. Ford: No.

          My god that he can come through as so obviously condescending and tone deaf even in a tweet is really something.

          GRASSLEY TRANSLATOR: I submit these sworn statements from 3 witnesses at the party stating they conveniently don't recall the events that Ford described, & have no intention of getting involved in this Senate's shitshow as fact. But sure, "Let's be nice to Dr. Ford."
