1. Exactly. I watched her skirt up to it and then she was benched.

I believe she was about to connect that event to a specific location on the maps she had Dr. Ford look at. She was getting too close to the truth and was pulled.

2. 3 of the 4 people Dr. Ford named as being present the night of her attack are listed on

Kavanaugh's July 1st entry as being at some kind of gathering or party that night. It's also the the entry he used the word "skis", which I've seen discussed on here. I wasn't able to watch the entire hearing, but it's my understanding that directly after Rachel Mitchell started asking Kavenaugh about this entry is when they stopped allowing her to question him.

5. Look at his demeanor when he got to the "Toobin's House - Workout entry in his testymony...

He remembered what actually happened and knew he was about to lie. He took a deep breath and, I think, a long drink of water... and then lied about the "workout". I believe that's when it happened.

3. It's over

They pulled their own questioner when she scraped up against it. They are not going to let anything else sway anyone.

4. That is exactly how I saw it go down.

Game over.

6. Spread this around. This is the corroboration that she was telling the truth.

It's also proof that Republicans on the committee knew what this party was, and decided to deliberately distract from it.
