 Cotton: Feinstein to be investigated over leaked letter from Ford

Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s office will be investigated to determine whether it leaked a confidential letter from one of Brett Kavanaugh’s accusers, Sen. Tom Cotton said Sunday.

Cotton, an Arkansas Republican, also said lawyers recommended to Christine Blasey Ford by Democrats will face a Washington, D.C., bar investigation for telling her that Senate Judiciary Committee staffers would not travel to California to interview her about her sexual-assault allegation.

“They have betrayed her,” Cotton said on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” “She has been victimized by Democrats ... on a search-and-destroy mission for Brett Kavanaugh.”

He also said Democrats would be at fault if women become less likely to report sexual assaults now because they did not keep Ford’s request confidential, as she had asked.

Will they censure her for hiding the letter for six weeks instead of following the protocols in place for confidentially investigating allegations?

So...I have a whole new respect for Graham. He's shown the backbone that's been needed by the GOP for quite some time. He of all people, is willing to fight back and apparently wants another investigation ---

“We’re going to do a wholesale and full-scale investigation of what I think was a despicable process,” Graham, of South Carolina, said on ABC’s “This Week.”.............

So, at the least, that is an outright lie.  And Cotton, Graham, Orrin Hatch have to say what we know officially on record.... that is not precluding that they, including Dr. Ford, all hatched this debacle. My personal opinion is she is in on it and most of the people here seem to think that too.  A plot, let's see if she acts like Lil' Bo Peep a few months from now.

That's nice. Maybe you can say that in a thread about Senator Graham.
