Durbin: ‘Christine Blasey Ford Was Credible, Cooperative, and Resilient,’ ‘I Believe Her’
‘This woman, who had identified Brett Kavanaugh as her assailant to her husband and her therapist six years ago believes she had a responsibility as a citizen, as a citizen to come forward and tell her story’
EXCERPT:
DURBIN: "Yesterday, in this room, America saw this inflammatory issue in real time, in real life. Dr. Christine Blasey Ford was credible, cooperative, and resolute. When I asked her directly, under oath, the degree certainty that she had that she was assaulted by Brett Kavanaugh, she responded 100 percent. When the prosecutor on the Republican side tried to weave a political conspiracy, or make her a tool of her lawyers, it fell flat. This woman, who had identified Brett Kavanaugh as her assailant to her husband and her therapist six years ago believes she had a responsibility as a citizen, as a citizen to come forward and tell her story."
