It's like when Rush Limbaugh when he describes the media as the ''Drive by Media''. Here it's the socialist liberal democrats.

It seems democrats never have to take responsibility for what they do or say. And for the most part the Republicans allow them to get away with it!

During the Kavanaugh hearings, the progressive socialist liberal democrats attacked with vicious misinformation and bold faced lies to destory the Trump nominee just because he supposedly a Conservative, and would swing the court away from the socialsit liberal democrats that must have the Judical system to back up their failure to legislate their criminal activates.

Just imagine how this will play out when Ruthie assumes room Temperature.

Senator Seeks Update After Referring 4 Accusers to Justice Department for Kavanaugh Claims

Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, asked the Department of Justice and FBI on Tuesday for an update on the criminal referrals he submitted against witnesses who made potentially false accusations of sexual misconduct against Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

The Senate Judiciary Committee, when Grassley was chairman in 2018, asked the Justice Department to pursue criminal investigations of four individuals following Kavanaugh’s contentious confirmation to the Supreme Court that fall.
“When individuals intentionally mislead the committee, they divert important committee resources during time sensitive investigations and materially impede its work,” Grassley wrote in a letter to Attorney General William Barr and FBI Director Christopher Wray. “Such acts are not only unfair; they are potentially illegal. It is illegal to make materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statements to congressional investigators. It is illegal to obstruct committee investigations.”

“The next Supreme Court nominee should not have to defend himself or herself against baseless and fabricated allegations, and committee staff should not have to spend valuable time investigating them,” Grassley added.

The senator asked for a response to his letter by Oct. 21.

Two of the Judiciary Committee’s four referrals concerned celebrity attorney Michael Avenatti and Julie Swetnick, a Washington-area professional who accused Kavanaugh of participating in gang rapes as a high school student.

Congressional investigators pursued the matter and concluded it had no merit, Grassley’s letter said.

The Judiciary Committee referred the pair for possible prosecution after finding Avenatti and Swetnick share “a long history of credibility issues.” A second referral followed after Avenatti allegedly falsified a sworn statement to support Swetnick’s claims. Avenatti denied any wrongdoing following the referral and said an investigation would ultimately vindicate Swetnick.

The other two referrals concern anonymous allegations that did not feature prominently in the Kavanaugh confirmation.

The first, relayed by the office of Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., involved an allegation that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted a woman on a boat in Newport, Rhode Island. The complainant, later identified as Jeff Catalan, recanted.

The fourth matter involves a similar set of facts. An anonymous accuser sent a letter to Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., containing graphic and disturbing allegations against Kavanaugh.

A woman named Judy Munro-Leighton later put herself forward as the author of the letter to committee aides. Munro-Leighton has since conceded that she did not write the letter and merely hoped “to grab attention.”
