The Republican Party Today Is The Dirtiest Thing In The History Of American Politics

My guess as to what's going on with the faux-investigation that is reportedly about to be wrapped up into Brett Kavanaugh's history of drunken attacks on girls and women is that Mitch McConnell is trying to force through his confirmation by the Republican Senate and if not that then to try to gin up a campaign issue to try to scrounge a Republican majority on the Senate after the mid-terms.   And the piece of shit doesn't care who he destroys and what he does to the country in order to do it.

Clearly that's what the Trump regime is doing in handcuffing the FBI so they don't even interview Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, if the director is part of that effort or not, I have no idea.

The overall strategy of the Republicans has been to get Brett Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court knowing it's a practical impossibility to remove someone through the Constitutional myth of impeachment of a Supreme Court member (it's as imaginary as removing a president by impeachment) where he will sit as shamelessly as any of the other criminal degenerates who sat on the court for decades,  Clarence Thomas being there to greet him, the 5th vote in the Federalist fascist majority on that already tainted court. 

I am sure there will be more to say before the end of the day.   What can be said is that the Republican Party is a symptom of a country with a fatal disease, one brought to us by the corporate media which has fed and fueled the ever worsening Republican Party and their grab on power over the past three decades. 

The New York Times is being praised for so belatedly revealing the crime family that the Trumps have been but, as even their reporting has to admit, it was part of their cover up as they presented Trump as a glamorous youngish tycoon over the last several decades.   That even as it was clear he was a vulgarian fraud and even as they, during the election campaign, aided him by running false and sensational stories about a woman, the only person who could have prevented this entire fiasco, Hillary Clinton about whom no one has found any indictable or illegal activity, despite the Republicans, including Kavanaugh, spending tens of millions of dollars to try to find one single thing she could have been arrested for.  The New York Times doesn't undo that with this story they broke yesterday.  They have decades of such enabling to answer for.  And they're only one media outlet that can be said of.

What the FBI is doing by what's being reported about the investigation?   Maybe doing such an obvious botch of an investigation that Flake, Collins, Merkowski et al won't be able to hide behind it?  Maybe as a protest against being prevented from doing their job?  Maybe trying to get him on the court?   I don't know but whatever it is, if the investigation isn't even asking Dr. Ford questions it is a white-wash and an obvious and intentional botch.
