    Ed Whelan's Twitter thread about a supposed doppelganger that could prove Kavanaugh's innocence was not his own doing. He had help from a PR firm best known for working with the Swiftboat Veterans.https://politi.co/2Nwdnty

        It doesn't absolve him. I hope the whole lot gets sued...not just by Dr Ford but by the person they tried to implicate as the possible perp.

        If your “alibi” includes a PR firm, you’re probably guilty.

        And one of the Senior Account Executives at this firm - Garrett Ventry - is also the Communications Adviser for Senator Grassley and the Senate Judiciary Committee. That’s probably relevant.

        Who needs an #FBI investigation if you’ve got #EdWhelan’s #FUBAR investigation? If #BrettKavanaugh goes first, he’ll just say again he wasn’t there. That’s not worth #ChristineBlasey missing her chance to elaborate, and demonstrate her credibility.https://www.politico.com/story/2018/09/21/ed-whelan-kavanaugh-tweets-pr-firm-836405 …

        This is a pathetic ploy to implicate an innocent man for the alleged sins of Kavanaugh. Dr. Ford is far more credible person than a proven liar like Brett Kavanaugh. He's a far-right GOP operative who seems to have lied before Congress in 2006. He is disqualified, IMHO.

        This is disgusting but possibly not a surprise. Republicans were throwing a shiny object into the fray to confuse the narrative and sow doubt - they didn’t care how - and to distract from the evil they are doing in suppressing Dr. Ford’s information. Cynical ploy.

        The nugget everyone is missing is that he knew her identity before it was publicized. Kavanaugh shared her name and the names of the others who were there because it happened and he remembers it well.
