It is a shame that this country has reached the point that an unsupported 30+ year old allegation by a Democratic activist whose mother lost a court case over which a Supreme Court nominee presided may derail the career of an extremely well qualified judge with a spotless record.

I don't know whether Republicans have caved on her demand that Kavanaugh responds to her allegation before she testifies to the Senate, but if so, that would be a very spineless concession.



In another interview, Dershowitz blasted Ford for demanding that Kavanaugh testify about her allegations before she does. He said that Ford should testify first and failure to do so would be denying Kavanaugh due process.

IMO, Dershowitz has represented Trump's positions better than any lawyer who has been on his payroll. He is very liberal, but I can't imagine Alan Dershowitz ever betraying a client's confidence the way that Michael Cohen has, or taping his private meetings with the POTUS or any other client without their knowledge.

Yes. One of the few remaining liberals who believes in the Constitution.
