        Since Thursday, I’ve held onto one simple thing— One lady from Palo Alto brought the entire Republicans Senate to a halt. Like a group of elephants scared of a mouse. And they act like they’re the underdog’s? Really?Although it might be temporary, it still gives me hope.

        https://twitter.com/i/moments/976515905994752006 … Not to gp far off-topic, but since McConnell’s as complicit in this as anyone: As Grassley’s in criminal investigation mode, maybe he can look into why a McConnell operative/donor was appointed by his wife as DOT’s Director of Operations? @Bencjacobs

        Hell, why hasn’t @ChuckGrassley referred Brent Kavanaugh for an investigation for the numerous lies he told the committee?

        When I first read the headline, I thought Grassley was referring Kavanaugh for his false statements to the Judiciary Committee.

        "Whelan also worked for the Senate Judiciary Committee from 1992 to 1995 as a senior staffer to Sen. Orrin G. Hatch (Utah)" To believe that Whelan and the Hatch camp were not coordinating defies credulity. https://twitter.com/nihonmama/status/1043194275112996864 …

        Did I miss something? Was Whelan under oath at some point? So much happening it's hard keeping track.

        Why indeed! Perhaps because Grassley and his staff, their PR firm were involved together.

        Not mention the two dudes who "confessed" to being Ford's attacker. Either they made false statements or they're sexual assaulters.
