***Let's put a laser focus on the open-and-shut PERJURY case involving Kavanaugh & Ramirez.***
Last edited Tue Oct 2, 2018, 05:47 PM - Edit history (3)
Perjury committed by a judge is beyond excuse. The whole justice system depends on telling the truth.
So let’s put a laser focus on these 3 provable lies – all perjuries. No need to prove his drinking. No need to prove an assault. No she said, he said. This would be proven by documents. Let’s all get on the phone and write emails with these undeniable facts.
Exhibit 1: The texts put together by Kerry Berchem, which show classmates discussing with Kavanaugh weeks ago how to defend him against allegations that weren’t publicly known till the Sept. 23 New Yorker article. The FBI has these texts now.

In a series of texts before the publication of the New Yorker story, Yarasavage wrote that she had been in contact with “Brett's guy,” and also with “Brett,” who wanted her to go on the record to refute Ramirez. According to Berchem, Yarasavage also told her friend that she turned over a copy of the wedding party photo to Kavanaugh, writing in a text: “I had to send it to Brett’s team too.”
Exhibit 2: Kavanaugh’s three different statements under oath testifying that he didn’t learn of the Ramirez allegations till the New Yorker article of September 23. These are public record.
I think the Ramirez story is what he was worried about all along. That’s why he had the 65-women character reference letter ready to put out as soon as Christine Ford came forward. He had forgotten about Christine, but was ready with the all-purpose letter. Unfortunately, though Christine’s story touched all our hearts, and she has the polygraph, and she told people years ago, there are still many who will use some excuse not to believe her.
But there is a very simple, undeniable perjury case to be made with regard to Ramirez. They botched it up. He should have come out long ago with a “I was just a stupid kid” story and that would have probably been the end of it. Instead, he perjured himself about it, not once but three times.
This wasn’t an accident, a misunderstanding, or a slip of the tongue. He purposely lied 3 times in response to 3 different questions – knowing all the while that he had been talking to his Yale classmates about Ramirez starting weeks earlier.
The New Yorker story came out on Sept. 23.
The first two lies were in a telephone interview he had with Judiciary committee members and staff on Sept. 25; and then he lied again in the hearing on Sept. 27.

Sept. 27 Hearing transcript
HATCH: When did you first hear of Ms. Ramirez’s allegations against you?
KAVANAUGH: In the last — in the period since then, the New Yorker story.

Sept. 25 transcript of telephone interview
p. 10 Question: The article reports that an anonymous classmate is 100 percent sure that he was told at the time that Kavanaugh was the student who exposed himself to Ramirez and that he independently recalled many of the same details offered by Ramirez, including the party's location. The article also suggests that some of your classmates have discussed this alleged event.
At any point, have you ever heard a rumor that you exposed yourself to Ms. Ramirez?
Judge Kavanaugh. No, and I would have, because it would have been the talk of campus.
p. 18 Question: All right. My last question on this subject is since you graduated from college, but before the New Yorker article publication on September 23rd, have you ever discussed or heard discussion about the incident matching the description given by Ms. Ramirez to the New Yorker?
Judge Kavanaugh. No.

could literally see BK taken aback ("Holy shit - this senator is helping me through a lie !"
There is something extremely fishy about Hatch's motives.
