Here are my observations and opinions on selected news of the day.

J.CHRISTIAN ADAMS, an attorney who formerly served in the DOJ and has worked in Washington DC for some time, commented on the Judge Kavanaugh confirmation for PJMedia on a daily basis. Always right on point.

Early on, he criticized Senators Cory Booker (D-NJ) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) for their silence when activists disrupted the hearings. Both frequently mention rule-of-law. Adams says that disrupting a Senate hearing is a criminal offense under U.S. Code Chapter 40, Section 5104, carrying a six-month stay in a federal prison.

When everyone – the media, Democrats, even Republicans – was upset with President Trump’s rehashing of accuser Ford testimony during a rally in Mississippi, they called it “mocking” while Adams wrote that the president was merely transcribing her. “He (Trump) wasn’t going to quietly and gently absorb all of the false, outlandish accusations,” wrote Adams in a column crediting the president for making the difference for Kavanaugh’s support with his remark.

Finally, when mob rule took over the Senate office building, Adams likened the “frightening, incoherent shrieking to an exorcism in an insane asylum. The radical demonstrators were “unhinged, uncivil, disruptive, rude and borderline nuts. They were an embarrassment to themselves.”

COINCIDENTALY, Ol’ Charlie Daniels had the same thought and wrote @CharlieDaniels, that “Seeing the fanatics stalking the halls of congress is tantamount to peeping into an insane asylum. The face of new democrat party is bizarre and threatening and the fact their leaders will not address it is a telling view into a chaotic future if they should come to power.”

GREG GUTFELD, the sharp-witted host of Fox News Channel’s “The Greg Gutfeld Show,” and co-host of “The Five,” characterized the crowd of demonstrators as “seedpods from the garden of stupid blooming.”

ONE OF THE CRAZIES, Ariel Dumas, writing @ArielDumas said, “Whatever happens, I’m just glad we ruined Brett Kavanaugh’s life.” It’s what you might expect from this Stephen Colbert groupie.

MEANWHILE, FORD HAS HAD ENOUGH – We’ve learned that Christine Blasey Ford, who swore to the gullible Democrat Sen. Dick Durbin that she was 100 percent certain that she was sexually assaulted by Brett Kavanaugh, will not pursue the allegations she made before the Senate any further.

With no statute of limitations in Maryland, she could still file a police report on Kavanaugh, but according to her lawyers, she’s not going to do that. And she will apparently not be part of any movement to impeach Kavanaugh.

THE FACT THAT FALSE ALLEGATIONS of rape or attempted rape are extremely rare is rebutted in a piece by Rowan Scarborough in The Washington Times. Claims by the media and the social network that the majority of charges are real and that just two percent of charges are lies are dispelled in his article.

Brent Turvey, a criminologist, wrote in his 2017 book that as many as 40 percent of sexual assault charges are false, and believes that an FBI report in the 1990s pegged the falsity rate at 8 percent for rape and rape complaints. He has cited 10 studies that debunk the two percent claim.

In a Pentagon study, where sexual assaults are assessed annually, nearly one-quarter of all cases last year were thrown out for lack of evidence as recent as May.

BIRDS OF A FEATHER – CNN contributor Jen Psaki, the former Kerry State Department mouthpiece, who was later passed over for the similar position in the Obama White House, tweeted @jrpsaki “who wants to run for Senate in Maine. There will be an army of supporters to help you.”

Guess who raised her hand? Benghazi liar-in-chief Susan Rice. There’s a pair.

It didn’t stop with that tweet. Psaki accused Maine’s Sen. Susan Collins with “political cowardice … somebody who is pretending to be a feminist.”

ANOTHER MEDIA LIGHTWEIGHT, NBC reporter Ken Dilanian joined leftists who want to see the make-up of the Senate changed, tweeting @KenDilanianNBC “the idea that North Dakota and New York get the same representation in the Senate has to change.

It explains why Democrats opposed so strongly the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. They know he will protect the Constitution from those who would choose to rewrite it.

Our founders, showing foresight, wanted to protect smaller states from having the will of larger states imposed upon them.

“This attitude of intellectual superiority over the ‘flyover’ states … is why we’re in this polarized predicament,” responded Marcus Anderson @mynameismca16.

AND DID YOU KNOW that “the Electoral College is a racist American relic that must be abolished?” Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the socialist wonder kid in New York says so. “It is well past time we eliminate the Electoral College, a shadow of slavery’s power on America that today undermines our nation as a democratic republic.”

ADD SINGER TAYLOR SWIFT to the list of entertainers who feel the need to opine though they cannot back up their statements. “I cannot vote for someone who will not be wiling to fight for the dignity for ALL Americans, no matter what skin color, gender or who they love,” she said of Tennessee Republican senatorial candidate Marsha Blackburn.

Swift, who said Blackburn’s voting record “appalls and terrifies me,” did not elaborate on Blackburn’s record in her statement. It’s unfortunate that she strayed from her previous reluctance to voice her opinion.

“Taylor Swift has every right to be political, but it won’t impact (the) election unless we allow 12 yr old girls to vote.” – Gov. Mike Huckabee

DEMOCRATS DUMBFOUNDED to find that women think for themselves about politics, writes Ellie Bufkin, in The Federalist. “Conservative women today reject their casting as second-class citizens. They vote for what they believe to be a better America. The left just can’t understand it.”

“They see women who defended Kavanaugh as brainwashed by the men in their lives, and insist women couldn’t possibly have thought for themselves that man accused of sexual assault was, in fact, innocent.

While a recent Marist poll reported that it was clear that Republican women are far more motivated to vote for conservatives after the confirmation than they were before, Bufin says Harper’s Bazaar said that Kavanaugh’s confirmation “will finally turn Republican women away from their voting habits, to ultimately unite in burning down ‘patriarchal institutions.

“The leftist rejection of a woman who has any opinion contrary to theirs is far more toxic to the cause of equality for women than anything else facing American women today,” Bufkin concludes.

INCIDENTALLY, Harper’s Bazaar is marketed to “affluent, educated, professional women” with an average household income of $248,000. Nearly a third of its circulation goes to homes in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco and Philadelphia. How many of your women friends regularly read this magazine?

SALENA ZITO, a rust zone reporter who I admire and often quote, interviewed Darcelle Slappy, a Green Party candidate, who disagrees with the media’s portrayal of the political division in the country. Republicans and Democrats who live in this part of Western Pennsylvania are a lot closer than they’re portrayed on TV, according to Slappy.

“Unlike Washington, we are all just a few notches from each other in either direction. We have much more that draws us together than divides us,“ Slappy told Zito. “In fact, she says the divide in this country isn’t Republican versus Democrat; the real division is between the elites and us.”
