Second and Third Accusers against Kavanaugh come forward!

[Peter Lemkin]

While Senate Republicans attack the credibility of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, the woman who first accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault, a Republican congressman took to Fox News to justify a hasty and incomplete FBI investigation into Ford's allegations. Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) argued that Ford had already said enough during her Senate testimony last week and therefore did not need to be interviewed by investigators.
On Tuesday, it was reported that FBI agents would not seek to interview Ford because the White House deemed her Senate testimony sufficient, despite Ford's lawyers repeatedly requesting an interview. The administration's position was backed up further on Wednesday by Issa.
"Clearly Dr. Ford not only said everything she wanted to say in an exhaustive interview in front of the American people, but when she was asked if she had anything to add she said, no,'" Issa told Fox's Neil Cavuto. "If she said… she had nothing else to add, what was the FBI supposed to ask?"

However, Ford's lawyers have been eager for the FBI to interview her. In a letter sent on Tuesday, the attorneys outlined how they had made Ford available for questioning and had also identified witnesses and evidence which could assist agents in their investigation. "Despite these efforts, we have received no response from anyone involved in this investigation," the letter read. "[There has also been] no response to our offer for Dr. Ford to be interviewed."
In separate letter sent on Wednesday, attorneys Debra Katz and Lisa Banks reiterated that "Dr. Ford is prepared to provide those documents to the FBI when she is interviewed. We have not yet heard from the FBI about scheduling an interview with her."

The FBI's lack of interaction with Ford isn't the only criticism of the investigation. Attorneys representing Deborah Ramirez, Kavanaugh's second accuser, said they provided the names of 20 people who would corroborate her story to the FBI, but the agency has not reached out to any of them.
Similarly, on Tuesday the New York Times also unearthed letters contradicting Kavanaugh's testimony of how much he drank in high school, but former classmates have not been interviewed. One former classmate, who wished to remain anonymous, said that the investigation was just "an alibi" so that Republicans could vote for Kavanaugh.
On Tuesday night in Mississippi, meanwhile, President Donald Trump reminded America of what his base really thinks of Dr. Ford by mocking her to uproarious laughter. Trump, who has had over a dozen women accuse him of sexual assault, then told the audience that the real victims here were men since they could be falsely accused.
