(Daily Kos)- Sen. Elizabeth Warren has shared a video of Supreme Court nominee (and accused sexual assaulter) Brett Kavanaugh speaking to an audience at the Columbus School of Law and saying, Weve had a saying weve held firm to this day, as the dean was reminding me before the talk, which was, what happens at Georgetown Prep, stays at Georgetown Prep.
✔ @SenWarren, Brett Kavanaugh talking about his high school in 2015: What happens at Georgetown Prep, stays at Georgetown Prep. I can't imagine any parent accepting this view. Is this really what America wants in its next Supreme Court Justice? 1:23 PM - Sep 18, 2018

- MOTHER JONES has more on Kavanaugh using this what happens here, stays here term. From a 2014 speech to the Federalist Society in which he recalls his heavy drinking Yale Law School days:
I am approaching my eighth anniversary on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. I am approaching the 24th anniversary of my graduation from this school. That means I am approaching the 24th anniversary of my organizing 30 classmates in a bus to go to Boston for a Red Sox game and a night of Boston bar-hopping, only for us to return falling out of the bus onto the front steps of Yale Law School at about 4:45 a.m. One friend of mine, Steve Hartmann, actually had a Labor Law final the next morning. (I checked with him just yesterday to confirm that it was Labor Law.) True story.
On the bus, he actually had his book out and was reading his notes while people were doing group chugs from a keg. He got a P. I think the people doing the group chugs got Hs. Fortunately for all of us, we had a motto, what happens on the bus stays on the bus. Tonight, you can modify that to what happens at the Fed Soc after-party stays at the Fed Soc afterparty.

(2,795 posts)I suspect "the fixer" was the biggest intimidator of all scaring her to drop the whole thing.
Now Dr. Ford is in hiding because of threats. It would be incredibly frightening to go up against the slime machine that is the republican party. And it's entirely possible that if there is another woman that was "horse played" with might actually be a trump supporter so is fine ignoring and putting an anti-abortion judge on the court.
