There's no spin here.

He never "met with Trump's legal team"

No spin, just the facts according to whatever fits your worldview. LoL.

Kamala Harris obviously found some piece of paper that shows BK talking to some lawyer about Mueller. She obviously has reason to believe that lawyer works at XYZ law firm. XYZ law firm was founded by Lawyer X. Lawyer X used to work for Trump and now does not.

What Ms Harris is implying....is that there is some back-channel connection through this lawyer with which Trump allegedly has no client-relationship. And that Trump may be using that back channel to vet supreme court candidates.

So you filled the rest of that in yourself too eh?

So basically whatever facts are missing you just make up as you see fit.

Let's walk that back: You don't know what Harris does or doesn't know or what Kavanaugh did or didn't do. It isn't public knowledge. But the fact you're blathering on about one specific possible scenario that makes it all seem as innocuous as possible doesn't surprise me.

Real foil hat shit.

It certainly passes the test of being mostly made up.

At least you're not saying it's all part of the plan to ensnare Obama.

No, I did research.

Mark Kasowitz was Trump's attorney for less than 60 days and their engagement ended over a year ago. Since that time, Trump appointed a whole other Supreme Court Justice.

What about that do you think is made up?

Haha you sprinkled one "fact" into the rest of your narrative, and it turns out it isn't even close to being correct.

According to a May 23, 2017 article in Forward, Kasowitz, Benson, Torres, and Friedman has been a "go-to source" for Donald Trump for decades.[9] He has represented Donald Trump in his divorce proceedings, bankruptcy cases,[12] Trump University lawsuits,[17] during the 2016 presidential campaign regarding sexual misconduct allegations,[18] and during the Trump presidency in the investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections.[4][19][20][21][22]

In Spring 2017, Kasowitz told associates that he had been personally responsible for the abrupt dismissal of U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara on March 11, 2017, having previously warned Trump, "This guy is going to get you".[23]

Kasowitz departed Trump's White House legal team on July 20, 2017.

Sounds like a real darling of a guy too.

Marc E. Kasowitz, President Trump’s longtime attorney representing him in the Russia investigations, reportedly sent angry, threatening and profane emails to a random stranger who criticized him this week, cursing at the man and telling him, “I already know where you live, I’m on you.”

Sorry but you're a shit witness.

You don't know what Harris does or doesn't know or what Kavanaugh did or didn't do.

It's completely reasonable to assume that she has a credible reason to believe that BK talked to someone at Kasowitz's law firm.

Otherwise her question would be highly unethical and a completely stupid thing to do if you're considering a Presidential run.

Again, specifics.

You don't know EXACTLY what Harris does or doesn't know or what K did or didn't do. You're filling in the blanks with your own/Fox News' best-case-scenario MadLibs.

I never stated I knew EXACTLY anything.

But OBVIOUSLY she thinks that BK talked to someone connected to Kasowitz about Mueller. That's all I'm inferring. I'm not saying who he talked to, what they talked about, why they talked about it, or what they did about the talk afterward.

Why are you being such a cunt about this?

What inference have I made that you specifically object to? Have I said anything that's not the MOST plausible inference?

Do you realize that the next most plausible inference is that Harris made shit up out of nowhere and discredited an honest man merely for the purpose of generating face-time on television? Is that where you want this talk to go???

What the fuck is wrong with you dude??

[Poopadoop]

I never stated I knew EXACTLY anything.

Oh sorry, when you outline such a detailed scenario as below I assume it means you think you know something about it.

Kamala Harris obviously found some piece of paper that shows BK talking to some lawyer about Mueller. She obviously has reason to believe that lawyer works at XYZ law firm. XYZ law firm was founded by Lawyer X. Lawyer X worked for Trump for about five minutes in 2017, and then resigned.

What Ms Harris is implying....is that there still exists some back-channel connection through this lawyer with which Trump currently has no client-relationship. And that Trump may be using that back channel to vet supreme court candidates.

Why are you being such a cunt about this?

Pointing out the falllibility of your claims isn't being a cunt, sorry. It's taking you to task for having nothing to back up your claim.

What inference have I made that you specifically object to? Have I said anything that's not the MOST plausible inference?

Why infer anything at all. I could infer Kav and Kas spoke for hours about a joint plan to let DJT pardon himself and take the next submarine to Russia. It'd be just as plausible to many people as your argument that there's a completely innocent explanation for why Kavanaugh would talk to someone on Trump's personal legal team about Mueller.

Do you realize that the next most plausible inference is that Harris made shit up out of nowhere and discredited an honest man merely for the purpose of generating face-time on television? Is that where you want this talk to go???

lol, no that's YOUR next most plausible inference. Like,it's either there's a totally innocent explanation where Kavanaugh unwittingly bumped into one of Kas.'s lawyers in the elevator and one of them was holding the NYT article that day about Mueller, and they both said 'interesting case' or some such, and now Harris is trying to make a big deal out of it, OR it's a deliberate attempt on her part to use lies and insinuations to discredit this wonderful person who thinks illegal immigrants shouldn't be allowed abortions.

What the fuck is wrong with you dude??

lol.

[BananaStand]

why Kavanaugh would talk to someone on Trump's personal legal team about Mueller.

Source? Who says he talked to someone on "trump's personal legal team". Haven't you been ranting about how wrong it is to make inferences without facts? He talked to someone employed by Kasowitz. Kasowitz's was on "Trump's legal team" with regard to Mueller for less than 60 days. His firm has 266 lawyers on staff. How are you inferring that BK talked to "trump's personal legal team about mueller"?

wonderful person who thinks illegal immigrants shouldn't be allowed abortions.

Fake facts again. He doesn't believe anyone should be denied an abortion. He didn't think the government should be required to provide one, paid for, on demand, for a non-citizen. Not quite the same thing.

That was the question being posed to Kavanaugh, and one he adeptly dodged. So we'll have to wait and see what the facts are when they come out. Patience.

Sigh. For someone who claims that the only reason people ever disagree with him is because they don't have the facts, it's becoming increasingly obvious that what you mean is they don't have the alternative facts.

PLEASE try to get at least SOME of your information from an objective source.

“It’s important to emphasize that it was a minor,” Kavanaugh began. “So she’s in an immigration facility in the United States, she’s from another country, she does not speak English. She’s by herself. If she had been an adult, she would have a right to obtain the abortion immediately.”

The argument K made here had nothing to do with money. The argument was she wasn't old enough to make up her own mind. Never mind that the gov't denied her a sponsor for the first 18 weeks of her pregnancy so she wouldn't be able to have an abortion; that didn't seem to faze him much.
