I want an explanation from Feinstein. Now.

considering how crucial this nomination is.

and honored/respected the request for privacy and anonymity until the Dr. changed her mind

this OP is about federal employees who wanted to blow the whistle on Kavanaugh and were rebuffed.

...attorney Cyrus Sanai tried multiple times to reach out to Senators Charles Grassley and Dianne Feinstein on behalf of federal court employees also willing to speak out against Kavanaugh. The employees wanted to talk about Kavanaugh’s work as a clerk for disgraced former 9th Circuit Court of Appeals Chief Judge Alex Kozinski, who resigned in 2017 after being accused by at least 15 women of sexual misconduct. But Sanai never heard back.

Is/was there a protocol in place? The thing I'm getting about at least a part of all this is that she is being kicked around from both sides and being blamed for this mess of a situation and I think there is a fair amount of whataboutism going on here.

I never heard about these employees until yesterday.

As for Feinstein keeping quiet regarding Dr. Ford, she imo did the right thing. I have no interest in blaming her for anything and realize we're still in the minority.

Tell me why Feinstein would not have at least shared this contact with others?. This accusation has witnesses willing to testify, so it's not about upholding a victim's identity. It also goes to him committing perjury in these hearings.

It would be one thing if she followed up and didn't think the info was credible. Here it appears it was dismissed out of hand.

Since the attorney who sent the letter said no one contacted him.

From the article,

Feinstein and Grassley, he said, were the only two he made sure received the letter. “I spent quite a bit of time trying to get Feinstein to address it,” he said.

I did. Read paragraph 2.

Doesn’t matter that they’ve been screaming for full transparency for months.

Boy, if they could only knock her off her seat

People should call as many senators as they can.

Some character called 'bettyellen' in cahoots with another called 'BigmanPigman' put together a list with contact info (phone, fax, address):
CANCEL KAVANUAGH, call, write, march, donate.

If that were true, the incident with Dr. Ford wouldn't be in the news 24/7 and have sidetracked Kavenaugh's vote.

She could leak information, but I’m pretty sure they’re marking everything possible confidential and filing it away.

Just like the corroborating witnesses in the Anita Hill hearings. Little has changed.

This is what happens when you nominate a flawed candidate and try to rush the process. Republicans shot themselves in the foot, again and again.

Stay away from all fans

The fecal matter is about to collide with the oscillating air-wave machine ?

So The Intercept is going to try again and hope it sticks this time.
