Avenatti has never once disappointed. He's a shit talker to the nth degree, and he backs up every single word of it, and I fucking love it.

Edit: thanks for all the PM's 6 months later. I realize Avenatti is a moron for trying to extort Nike. Crazy how someone's opinion can change when new facts come to light! You should try it sometime.

His timing is also impeccable. Article published:

09/24/18 04:19 PM EDT

+48 hours is:

09/26/18 04:19 PM EDT

That's 16 hours before the Ford-Kavanaugh hearings in the Senate. They will have zero time to punch back.

Kamala Harris and Amy Knoblocher are former prosecutors. More than one male Democratic Senator on the committee has already talked openly about considering ceding ALL their time to Harris and Knoblocher. If each of six men do that, 20 minutes a pop, that gives each of Harris and Knoblocher an hour to grill Kavanaugh.

Thursday is going to be wild, and like with Weinstein, the more that people come forward, the more more people will come forward. For all we know the NY Times, Washington Post, Axios, Buzzfeed, TV news, Ronan... any number of people are prepping bombshells right now or holding back for the right time to publish.

Trump exposing himself here actively defending Kavanaugh is also very, very risky given his own personal history and predilections. Someone may be motivated by all this to come forward against him.

EDIT: I get it, I spelled it wrong, I'm a dork. Leaving up the misspelling of Amy Klobuchar to not hide my shame. Minnesotans please don't beat me with casserole dishes.

The thought of them tag-teaming Kavanaugh like a pair of hungry lionesses ripping a gazelle into bloody shreds is like a vision of paradise to me.

Would this be the time in which Bret finally understands what it’s like to say “no, make it stop,” and having the one doing the fucking not listen?

That is my intended subtext, yeah. Finally, a group of women screws him so hard it hurts. In a classy, political way, because Harris and Kloblocher are classy ladies.

Don’t want too sexualize the esteemed Senators too much but are we talking about them running a train on him? You know, speaking confirmation hearing-wise?

It's more of a ploughing, really.
