The Art of the Never-Ending Investigation
American Greatness, Sep 29, 2018, Karl Notturno

Over the past couple of weeks, we have seen Democrats and the media execute a strategy on which they have become increasingly reliant. They are currently using this strategy in an attempt to delay and destroy Judge Brett Kavanaugh. Unfortunately, some Republicans—namely Senator Jeff Flake—do not understand this strategy and continue playing into Democrats’ hands.

Herewith is a brief primer to help confused Republicans like Flake understand how they’re being played and help them grow a spine.

Make a damning accusation that is difficult to prove but nearly impossible to disprove.

A charge of attempted rape is devastating—even when it is alleged to have occurred nearly four decades ago. It is hard enough to prove a negative, let alone prove one 36 years after the fact. Memories fade and warp and the facts get increasingly difficult to pin down. Few prosecutors would touch a decades-old case and many states (not including Maryland) have statutes of limitations to encourage victims to step forward while memories are still relatively fresh. No jury would convict Kavanaugh based on the evidence we have heard and no responsible prosecutor would take a case like this to trial.

Shift the burden of proof onto the defender by arguing that “innocent until proven guilty” only applies in a courtroom

After all, they argue, this is a job interview, not a trial. We certainly do not want a Supreme Court justice with a cloud of sexual assault allegations hanging over him. On its face, the line may seem compelling. But without some standard by which to judge the credibility of the charges, it is unclear what level of certainty allegations need to have before they disqualify nominees from a certain job. If every uncorroborated allegation were disqualifying, a lot of innocent people would have their lives ruined very quickly.

And we can take it to the bank that the Rats will continue to use it.

They are terrified, backed into a corner they created, Losing their activist grip on our Courts.

Wait till Ginsberg nods off and goes room temp on the job.

We'll see a replay of the lynching they just attempted on Kavanaugh on steroids.


Losing the Courts has made them so open about who and what they are that we may see them implode as a party for a good twenty years.
