Debra Katz Injected With Truth Serum

This week marked the 18^th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks that took the lives of nearly 3,000 Americans and forever changed American society; specifically, when it comes to air travel. Contrary to what The New York Times wants people to think, airplanes did not cause the terror attacks; the radical Islamic terrorists who hijacked the planes and crashed them into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon did.

Since 18 years have passed since the 9/11 terror attacks, every single high school student and the overwhelming majority of students attending college right now do not remember the attacks. Fortunately, Young America’s Foundation has made sure that the younger generation will not forget the horrors of what took place on 9/11 by creating the “Never Forget project.” This year, student activists from more than 200 high schools and colleges across America placed 2,977 American flags on the ground in honor of each and every innocent life taken prematurely in the terror attacks. 

Exactly eleven years after the terror attacks of September 11, 2001, another terror attack took the lives of four Americans, including the US Ambassador to Libya. While then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the Obama administration did their best to paint the attack, which took place in the Libyan capital of Benghazi, as a spontaneous reaction to an anti-Muslim video, it quickly became clear that what happened in Libya was a pre-meditated terror attack. Apparently, Hillary and friends expected the American people to see it as a mere coincidence that the attack took place on the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. People on the ground in Benghazi repeatedly asked Hillary Clinton and the State Department for more security yet they did not comply. This led Pat Smith, the mother of one of the victims of the Benghazi attack, to blame Hillary Clinton personally for her son’s death during a speech at the 2016 Republican National Convention. The former Secretary of State did not seem to see any need at all to honor those who lost their lives in the Benghazi attacks or the 9/11 attacks; instead opting to spend 9/11 in Italy fantasizing about serving as Commander-in-Chief while sitting in a replica of the Oval Office reading aloud her e-mails.

In addition to the terrorism-related anniversaries observed on 9/11, another anniversary took place this week that one man in America and his family would rather forget. One year ago at this time, Brett Kavanaugh looked likely to become the next Supreme Court Justice. After the confirmation hearings had wrapped up and it looked like Democrats would have little luck in their efforts to torpedo his nomination, California Senator Dianne Feinstein, the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, informed the FBI of a letter containing an anonymous sexual assault allegation against Kavanaugh dating back to his high school days. Kavanaugh first became aware of the letter in July 2018 when Democratic Congresswoman Anna Eshoo, who represents the liberal mecca of Palo Alto, gave it to her. As I explained in an earlier blog post, Feinstein took “a page out of The Washington Post’s playbook by releasing damaging (or potentially damaging) information at the most politically inconvenient time.  For more information, google ‘Access Hollywood tape.’”

Eventually, the accuser, psychology professor Christine Blasey Ford, came forward in a Washington Post op-ed; claiming that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her when they both attended elite Catholic high schools in the Washington, DC area. She provided few details about the alleged altercation but in the #MeToo era, the allegation alone put Kavanaugh’s nomination into jeopardy.

The Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee gave Ford the benefit of the doubt; bending over backwards to accomodate her demands. When Ford and her attorneys claimed that Ford had a fear of flying due to trauma from the decades-old sexual assault, the Senate Judiciary Committee offered to send female investigative staffers out to interview Ford at her home in California. However, the Senate Judiciary Committee refused to comply with Ford’s un-American request to have Kavanaugh testify before her; thus depriving him of the opportunity to respond to his accuser.  Nearly two weeks after the allegations first became public, Ford apparently overcame her fear of flying and ended up testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee.  Republicans did their best to placate the left’s concerns about old white men questioning Ford by bringing in a female outside attorney to question her.

Following Ford’s testimony, an emotional Kavanaugh attempted to defend himself in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee; where the Democratic Senators went completely off the rails in their attempts to make Kavanaugh look like a teenage delinquent. Following an eventful day on Capitol Hill, it looked like Kavanaugh had the support of a majority of the Senators on the Judiciary Committee. 

However, two angry feminists cornered the most spineless Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, former Arizona Senator Jeff Flake, in an elevator; demanding that he support an FBI investigation into the allegations against Kavanaugh despite the fact that he had already undergone multiple FBI background checks before. Flake caved to their demands and indicated that he would not vote to advance Kavanaugh’s nomination to the full Senate until an FBI investigation took place. Unfortunately for the feminists, the FBI investigation did not bear the fruit they hoped it would.

After the FBI investigation wrapped up, the Senate Judiciary Committee voted in favor of Kavanaugh’s nomination on a party-line vote and the full Senate voted to confirm Kavanaugh by an extremely narrow margin; with 50 Senators voting in favor of his nomination and 48 voting against it. For more information on the Kavanaugh debacle, consult Justice on Trial: The Kavanaugh Confirmation and the Future of the Supreme Court by Mollie Hemingway and Carrie Severino.

While Ford’s testimony failed to keep Kavanaugh off the Supreme Court, she still became a left-wing folk hero; earning herself a spot on Time Magazine’s list of the 100 Most Influential People thanks to the recommendation of California’s other Senator, Kamala Harris. Meanwhile, Kavanaugh became an object of ridicule on the left; with actor Matt Damon mercilessly mocking Kavanaugh’s testimony on “Saturday Night Live.”

Six months after Christine Blasey Ford became a heroine of the left, her lawyer Debra Katz finally admitted the truth behind her decision to come forward with allegations against Kavanaugh at the University of Baltimore’s Feminist Legal Theory Conference. While the conference took place in April, the video did not become public until earlier this month. According to Katz, because of Ford’s allegations, “he will always have an asterisk next to his name. When he takes a scalpel to Roe v. Wade, we will know who he is, we know his character, and we know what motivates him, and that is important.” While Ford did her best to make the allegations appear non-political, even going so far as to scrub her social media accounts, Katz’s comments at the University of Baltimore effectively proved that narrative false, claiming that the desire to undermine any decision overturning Roe v. Wade “is part of what motivated Christine.”

In other words, the left, which has spent the past two years accusing President Trump of undermining our institutions, has indicated that it plans to undermine the legitimacy of the Supreme Court if it dares to rethink the 1973 decision that legalized abortion nationwide. The same left that demanded that conservatives accept “marriage equality” as “the law of the land” has already made it clear that they have no plans to accept the results of any Supreme Court decision that overturns the sacrosanct precedent set by Roe v. Wade.

Now that the left has failed to keep Kavanaugh off the Supreme Court, they have decided  on a new strategy to regain control of the Supreme Court: court packing. Quite a few Democratic presidential candidates have suggested increasing the number of Supreme Court justices to nullify the influence of the conservative majority; an idea that even liberal heroine Ruth Bader Ginsburg has pushed back on.

The Democrats’ plans to pack the Court will mean absolutely nothing if they don’t win the 2020 Presidential Election. A very strong possibility exists that another Supreme Court seat will become vacant between now and the next time a Democrat wins the White House. Unfortunately, what happened to Kavanaugh will seem like small potatoes compared to the war that the left will declare on the next man or woman nominated to the Supreme Court by a Republican President; especially if the nominee would end up replacing one of the more liberal justices on the Supreme Court. Kavanaugh went through hell in part because he ended up replacing Justice Anthony Kennedy, a Republican appointee who had voted with liberals on several of their favorite Supreme Court decisions, most notably Obergefell v. Hodges.  Had Kavanaugh ended up replacing one of the more conservative justices such as Alito or Thomas, he might not have had to go through the character assassination that the left put him through.

Because of what Debra Katz said at the University of Baltimore’s Feminist Legal Theory Conference, Americans should take any future allegations against powerful men in Republican politics with a grain of salt. While Debra Katz did a great disservice to the feminist movement by admitting the true motivation of Christine Blasey Ford, she did a great service to the American people by exposing the true colors of the left. Debra Katz and the feminists who worked so hard to derail Kavanaugh’s nomination do not care about victims of sexual assault, they only care about power. If Katz really cared about victims of sexual assault and the importance of “believing all women,” she would have taken the allegations against Bill Clinton and Al Franken more seriously. Katz and other feminist lawyers like Gloria Allred and Lisa Bloom know that the media will fall hook, line, and sinker for any sexual assault allegation against a Republican; especially in the #MeToo era. Katz did a great disservice to the #MeToo movement by making it seem like women accusing men of sexual assault have ulterior motives.

In a way, Debra Katz seems like the female Michael Avenatti. Both Katz and Avenatti used their clients in an effort to achieve partisan political ends; with no concerns about the well-being of their respective clients. In addition to using former porn star Stormy Daniels to damage President Trump’s reputation, Avenatti definitely used Daniels to prop up his own reputation.  Katz has not gone on a publicity tour to the extent that Avenatti did but she appears to have achieved folk hero status on the left, as demonstrated by her appearance at the University of Baltimore’s Feminist Legal Theory Conference. As their lawyers cashed in, Stormy Daniels performed at strip clubs in Richmond while Ford, who allegedly did not want to go public, had to change her address multiple times because of death threats.

The observations of the anniversaries of 9/11, one of the worst lowlights in American history, and the Benghazi attack brought sadness to the hearts of Americans who lost loved ones in the attacks and the observation of the anniversary of the smear campaign against Brett Kavanaugh brought disgust to Americans who believe in the innocent until proven guilty, three additional anniversaries that have taken place (or will take place) this week will not bring back such painful memories. Stay tuned for my next blog post, which will celebrate those anniversaries.
