Christine Ford, the woman who accuses Judge Kavanaugh of sexual assault 36 years ago
Posted on September 20, 2018 by Dr. Eowyn | 47 comments
Judge Brett Kavanaugh's nomination to the Supreme Court had been scheduled for a vote in the Senate Judiciary Committee on September 12, 2018.
At the last minute, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), the top Democrat on the committee whose personal driver of 20 years is a Chinese spy, blocked the vote by forwarding an anonymously-written letter to the Justice Department which accuses Kavanaugh of unspecified "sexual misconduct" with an unnamed woman when they were both high school students. Judge Kavanaugh is 53 years old, which means the alleged sexual misconduct took place (if it did) at least 35 years ago.
Feinstein had the letter, dated July 30, in her possession for weeks. It is not explained why Feinstein withheld the letter from the Senate hearings on Judge Kavanaugh's nomination, but disclosed the letter only after Kavanaugh had testified at the hearings, on the day when the Senate Judiciary Committee had been scheduled to vote on the nomination.
This is what we now know about Judge Kavanaugh's accuser:
(1) Although the letter-writer had asked that her identity be kept confidential and her letter not made public, on Sept. 16 she went public. She spoke to the Washington Post, which published her story on Monday, Sept. 17, five days after Sen. Feinstein had given the letter to the Justice Department. She is Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, 51, a research psychologist at Palo Alto University in northern California.
(2) Ford said "she believes" that in 1982, in a house in Montgomery County, Maryland (the exact location and owners of which she does not know) a drunk Kavanaugh pinned her on the bed, groped her, tried to take off her clothing, and covered her mouth from screaming. Ford told The Washington Post, "I thought he might inadvertently kill me. He was trying to attack me and remove my clothing," and that she was able to escape when Kavanaugh's friend, Mark Judge, jumped on top of them, sending all three tumbling. She ran from the room, briefly locked herself in a bathroom and then fled the house. She told no one about the alleged assault until she brought it up in couples therapy with her husband in 2012.
(3) At the time of the alleged incident, Kavanaugh was a student at the all-male Georgetown Preparatory School; Ford was a student at another private school, Holton-Arms.
(4) Kavanaugh strongly denies the allegations. He said in a statement: "I categorically and unequivocally deny this allegation. I did not do this back in high school or at any time." (New York Post)
(5) Ford has no corroborating witnesses:
Mark Judge, the high-school buddy of Kavanaugh whom Ford claims to be in the room during the alleged assault, denies that the assault took place, says he has "no memory" of the incident and does not want to testify. He said: "It never happened. I never saw anything like what was described" and that Ford's accusation does match Kavanaugh's character — "It is not who he is." (New York Post)
Ford's schoolmate Cristina King Miranda claimed she knew about the attempted rape, but quickly retracted her claim when critics questioned her account, noting it contradicted Ford's. Miranda now admits on Twitter she has no first-hand knowledge of the assault. (The New American)
Patrick J. Smyth, a classmate of Kavanaugh whom Ford alleges was at the house party, denies Ford's story in a letter to and received by the Senate Judiciary Committee on Sept. 18 (CNS News):
"I understand that I have been identified by Christine Blasey Ford as the person she remembers as 'PJ' who supposedly was present at the party she described in her statements to the Washington Post. … I am issuing this statement today to make it clear to all involved that I have no knowledge of the party in question, nor do I have any knowledge of the allegations of improper conduct she has leveled against Brett Kavanaugh.
"Personally speaking, I have known Brett Kavanaugh since high school and I know him to be a person of great integrity, a great friend, and I have never witnessed any improper conduct by Brett Kavanaugh toward women. To safeguard my own privacy and anonymity, I respectfully request that the Committee accept this statement in response to any inquiry the committee may have."
On Sept. 21, 2018, a 4th person said to have been at the party denies any knowledge of the sexual assault. Leland Ingram Keyser, a longtime friend of Christine Ford, says through her attorney: "Simply put, Ms. Keyser does not know Mr. Kavanaugh and she has no recollection of ever being at a party or gathering where he was present, with, or without, Dr. Ford." (Breitbart)
(6) Ford gave The Washington Post the results of a polygraph examination allegedly conducted by a former FBI agent in August, which purportedly show that she's truthful in her allegations. The agent, Jerry Hanafin, said in an interview that the results showed "no deception indicated" and that "she was being truthful." (New York Times). However, her attorney Debra Katz refused to disclose who had paid for the examination (which costs $500 to $1,000) or provide details on how it was conducted. Experts say lie detector tests are not infallible or fool-proof. A former senior FBI agent said polygraphs would have difficulty detecting deception by sociopaths, psychopaths and committed liars lacking a conscience. (FoxNews)
(7) Sen. Feinstein gave mixed messages, saying "I believe she [Ford] is credible" and "I can't say everything's truthful. I don't know." (CNN)
(8) Before going public on Sept. 17, Ford scrubbed her internet history — deleting all her social media accounts, including her LinkedIn page, and even removed her entire high school year book. (Mike Cernovich).
(9) Ford is a leftwing activist:
She is an open-borders activist who has signed anti-Trump immigration letters.
In 2016, she posted on Facebook that Supreme Court justice Antonin "Scalia-types must be banned from the profession of law". Like Scalia, Judge Brett Kavanaugh is a conservative and constitutionalist.
(10) Ford received five student reviews when she taught social work at California State University Fullerton. One review said "Many dislike Professor Ford due to her dark personality"; another wrote, "she is exact opposite of what she teaches". (Rate My Professors)
Note (Sept. 27, 2018): I just went onto her <em>Rate My Professors</em> page, which is now jammed with fake rave reviews. That was not the page when I viewed it a week ago on Sept. 20.
(11) Ford's recovered high school yearbook is full of accounts of wild, drunken sex parties she had attended. One passage reads: "And there were always parties to celebrate any occasion. Although these parties are no doubt unforgettable, they are only a memory lapse for most, since loss of consciousness is often an integral part of the party scene."
(12) According to a Palo Alto University document from 2015 (see page 97), Christine Blasey, Ph.D. is a professor at Palo Alto University and a "Director of Biostatistics at Corcept Therapeutics." As "Blasey CM," Christine Blasey Ford, whose middle name is Margaret, co-authored 8 research papers with Corcept Therapeutics, which manufactures and markets an RU-486 abortion pill, mifepristone. From Wikipedia:
As of 2018, Korlym is Corcept's only product and treats about 1,000 patients annually in the U.S. Korlym's active ingredient is mifepristone, also known as RU-486, which is a medication typically used in combination with misoprostol to bring about an abortion.
As 19888560, Blasey also appears on numerous published studies at PubMed — all funded by Corcept Therapeutics. Mike Adams of Natural News points out:
Blasey is a paid researcher for an abortion pill company with a lot to lose if Kavanaugh is confirmed to the U.S. Supreme Court…. The company is aggressively seeking to expand the FDA-approved applications of its drugs. Thus, the financial future of this company could be heavily impacted by abortion remaining legal in the United States….
[H]aving Kavanaugh on the court represents a dire threat…to abortion "rights." In turn, this represents a threat to Corcept Therapeutics, the drug company at which Christine Blasey has worked for years, helping to produce research that expands the company's market reach and drug applications…. Blasey has a financial motivation to defeat Kavanaugh and keep him off the U.S. Supreme Court.
(13) Ford's family members:
Her brother, Ralph Blasey, worked for a law firm that paid Fusion GPS. (True Pundit)
Ford's parents were defendants in a foreclosure case in 1996 in Maryland in which Kavanaugh's mother, Martha G. Kavanaugh, was the presiding district judge who ruled against Ford's parents. (Gateway Pundit)
Rejecting Monday — the Senate's date for a hearing on Ford's accusations — her lawyer says Ford "would be prepared to testify next week" if senators offer "terms that are fair and which ensure her safety." Ford claims to have received death threats.
