Does it matter? It's sloppy journalism at best and slander at worst.

It's not sloppy journalism to report on a claim in the steele dossier, given that other claims in the dossier were proven.

The casual observer would be curious as to why an American president would be such a stalwart ally of a communist autocrat, on everything from the invasion of Ukraine to loosening economic asset freezes to supporting fossil fuel economy and climate science denial.

Nope. That was Trump. I don't know how you missed that shitshow, but oh well.

Tim Kaine exaggerated what Trump said about Mexicans to include all Mexicans. To be fair, a significant part of Trump's platform was keeping out Mexicans.

He literally said "they LET you do it" right afterward. That's the context you clearly missed.

Yeah. I didn't miss that context. It's still creepy as fuck. There are reasons like fear of consequences and shock that might be interpreted as "LET" after the fact.

It wasn't investigated?

No. The FBI "investigation" was a whitewash that involved no investigation.

It wasn't headline news for months?

A couple of weeks. Kavannah was confirmed at close to the briskest pace possible.

He didn't have to defend himself before congress?

He did. He said he liked beer, and asked if one of the Senator's liked beer. Moscow Mitch moved it along as fast as allowable.

His entire life wasn't picked apart at the seams?

No it wasn't. The complaint was never investigated. We don't know why he paid off his loan so rapidly, except for his own claim about baseball tickets.

Do you seriously want every 30 year old accusation to be thoroughly investigated?

There's lots of reasons why you might want a supreme court justice to not be a criminal. For one thing you would wan't their decisions to tend towards justice.

Because if that's the case, you raped me 30 years ago.

Make your statement to the police. You might have my identity confused with someone else, but being raped is traumatic. You have my sympathies.
