James Roche, one of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh's freshman year roommates at Yale, said Wednesday that Kavanaugh lied under oath about his drinking and about the meaning of his yearbook entries. In an op-ed for Slate, Roche writes, "Brett Kavanaugh stood up under oath and lied about his drinking and about the meaning of words in his yearbook. He did so baldly, without hesitation or reservation." "In his words and his behavior, Judge Kavanaugh has shown contempt for the truth, for the process, for the rule of law, and for accountability," Roche added. "His willingness to lie to avoid embarrassment throws doubt on his denials about the larger questions of sexual assault." Kavanaugh testified to the Senate Judiciary Committee that he has never been blackout drunk. He was appearing before senators to answer an accusation from California professor Christine Blasey Ford that he sexually assaulted her when they were both in high school in the early 1980s. Kavanaugh denies the allegation and says he has no memory of the party where Ford says the incident happened. Roche says he believes his friend Deborah Ramirez, who has accused Kavanaugh of exposing himself to her at a college dorm party. He told CNN's Anderson Cooper on Wednesday night that "there is zero chance that she is making up this story." Kavanaugh has denied Ramirez's allegation. CNN has reached out to the White House for reaction to Roche's comments. Roche told CNN, "I saw him both what I would consider blackout drunk and also dealing with the repercussions of that in the morning." "I didn't socialize with Brett," Roche said. "He would come home and he was incoherent, stumbling, he would sometimes be singing, he occasionally would wear this – I think it was an old leather football helmet – and he would throw up, and then in the morning would have a lot of trouble getting out of bed." Roche added, "I wasn't an angel back then, either. There were times when I did the exact same thing." He told CNN he has not been contacted by the FBI about Kavanaugh. Roche writes in the Slate op-ed he is willing to speak to the FBI about his experiences with Kavanaugh and Ramirez. The FBI has been conducting a supplemental background investigation into the nominee after Kavanaugh and Ford testified before the Judiciary Committee. Roche writes he does not know if Kavanaugh attacked Ford in high school or exposed himself to Ramirez in college, "But I can say that he lied under oath." In Roche's appearance on "Anderson Cooper 360," he said he was "shocked" when he heard Kavanaugh say "boofing" meant flatulence and "Devil's Triangle" was a drinking game, "because those words were commonly used and they were references to sexual activities. … I heard them talking about it regularly. I think that contributed to some of my feelings about the fact that these guys treated women in a way that I didn't like." "We were in a room together – our beds were 10 feet apart for a couple of months," Roche told Cooper. "And what struck me and made me more interested in speaking out about it is not only did I know that he wasn't telling, you know, the truth, I knew that he knew that he wasn't telling the truth." Roche told CNN his memory of Kavanaugh is that "he was on the far edge of this – he was notably heavier in his drinking than other people." He told Cooper he had gone back and forth on whether to speak out – "there is very little upside for me and there is considerable downside for me" – but that "at the end of the day it feels like there are not enough people who are willing and can credibly say" they know Ramirez "and she didn't lie and wouldn't lie. … And so it felt to me like somebody had to get up and speak for her."
THIS IS THE PART WHERE YOU COWARDS AND SISSIES TRY TO DISTRACT, BY SAYING 'LIBERAL MEDIA' OR 'DEEP STATE CONSPIRACY', SUGGESTING THAT IT'S NOT IMPORTANT IF HE LIED UNDER OATH
UNFORTUNATELY FOR YOU, IT'S EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT HE LIED UNDER OATH… NOT EVEN ABOUT THE POSSIBLE ALLEGED SEXUAL GROPING… BUT ABOUT ANYTHING…
BECAUSE HE'S NOMINATED FOR A LIFETIME JOB IN AMERICA'S HIGHEST COURT….
AND HE CLEARLY LIED UNDER OATH
HE LIED ABOUT SEVERAL THINGS
AND THAT'S ACTUALLY A CRIME
HE'S A LAWYER AND A JUDGE, AND HE'S WELL AWARE HE'S UNDER OATH, AND HE KNOWINGLY VIOLATED THE LAW BY LYING UNDER OATH IN FRONT OF THE WORLD….
AND IF YOU'RE ONE OF THE IDIOTS WHO'S TALKING ABOUT INJUSTICE OF DR. FORD'S ACCUSATIONS, YOU NEED TO BE TALKING ABOUT THE VIOLATION OF LAW WHEN HE LIED UNDER OATH
Chase Fisher
the FBI didn't actually investigate anything. it was not an 'investigation'. they didn't interview anybody involved. they didn't investigate anything.
Trump curtailed the investigation and turned it into a basic background check with no teeth.
Gavin Lewis
not only do you suck balls at making observations, you also suck balls as a spin doctor
Landon Murphy
Bullshit. This was the 7th time! Its time to move on.
Neptune…. I thought you said you were not bias. Your bias is in overdrive now and the panic is really showing. If you are not bias, why would you care so much?
Andrew Richardson
A: I'm indeed biased against A FUCKING LAWYER WHO BECAME A JUDGE, AND NOW WANTS TO SIT ON THE SUPREME COURT, BUT LIES UNDER OATH
Oliver Ortiz
this isn't a Republican or a Democrat or a libertarian issue…..
this is a legal issue
He's a judge………..
and he LIED UNDER OATH
Thomas Roberts
Prove he lied, for all we know the other faggot is a liar
Brandon Clark
Who's writing this? HBO?
Jackson Brooks
7th time hahahaha lol
Adrian Brooks
the Homosexual Board Operator had nothing to do with it
Bentley Howard
you CANT lie under oath, everything you say under oath is true.
Daniel Johnson
As Americans, we are duly bound to stand up for 'justice'.
if anybody else lied under oath, you'd be indignant
Grayson Turner
of course, I've said from day one that they're still going to push Kavanaugh through no matter what………………….
I've never said that he won't be confirmed
Leo Hernandez
I'm simply stating facts:
-he lied under oath
Charles Green
Now how much money did he get paid for this statement?
Colton Butler
Who said he lied under oath? Oh, the bias liberal media. His friend said he had drinking problems, but I do recall Kav admitted to that under oath. He did drink! So fucking what?
Isaiah Phillips
the system is corrupt as shit
this is the exact type of insider corruption you guys complained about regarding Obama & Hillary
nothing has changed
Daniel Ward
Kav admitted he drank under oath! He didn't lie! The MEDIA, THE LIBERAL MEDIA is claiming he lied.
Josiah Gomez
Has been for a long, long time. Kav or no Kav is NOT going to change that fact. I only want him in because I want my Second Amendment to be protected under the law and not have to die in some standoff some day!!!
Austin Brown
Shouldn't you have enough experiences under your belt to know that this is all bullshit for the masses? They could put Kermit in his position and the US justice system would still be decided purely by money and influence. You're getting the bait and switch as entertainment for a crime syndicate.
not about the 'groping' not necessarily because we don't know what happened that night
but WE DO KNOW that he lied about the sexual terminologies, saying they were 'drinking games''''………….. bullshit…….
and WHY did he lie about the sexual terminologies?……………………………..
to deceive…. to hide any image of a sexually focused mindset back then
under oath
Isaac Cooper
I agree completely, sir
Cooper Howard
Black out drunk is a specifically requires to lose memory of events. Just being heavily intoxicated, even to the point of needing hospitalization, is different. Is not black out drunk. That's drunk.
I don't think he did lie, but I'll agree it is still a possibility and no one will ever know anyway. Its going to be a crook for judge anyway regardless DEM OR REP so I might as well stick with the one who doesn't want a massive bloody civil war over gun control right?
James Young
I'm not talking about blackout drunk terminology…………..
nope
the accusations by dr. Ford were sexually related, even though he wasn't accused of rape… Allegedly, according to her, he put his hand over her mouth and grabbed her tits…..
my wife and I both agree that's not a big deal……. that happens all the time that's typical shit that happens in your youth………………..
that accusation isn't what's important to my wife and I…..
we think that's nothing compared to the fact that he was deceptive, lying through his teeth about sexual terminologies, trying to hide his sexual focus back then, worried that if he admits he was a horny high schooler, it would make him look bad…..
…… so he lied, trying to make himself seem like he wasn't a pervert back then….
but everybody is a pervert at that age… All high schoolers and college guys get drunk and want to get pussy…..
everybody knows that….
he lied…..
he lied under oath…..
and he's a judge…..
Caleb Miller
A: yes
Dylan Rodriguez
time for a little honesty:
Q: if a cop robbed a bank, should he go to prison?
Alexander Ortiz
next question:
Q: if a judge lies under oath should he get the job?
Christopher Ross
Sensationalist garbage. Not even going to question the room-mate, just going to accept anything that supports your views as fact.
Innocent before proven guilt, proven being the operative word. If you want people to be able to throw you in jail because they can throw accusations of rape or whatnot at you then keep forging on this path, because ever infringement into law that hurts someone else makes you the next target, you scum.
Anthony Miller
only if it arrests itself
Easton Moore
Did he? Did he really lie under oath? I recall he admitted to drinking. Someone want to pull up a clip of him denying it?
Ryan Kelly
I know James Roche, he did a raping spree of 12 little girls off campus and was gloating about it during classes. He tried to recruit other people for money but everyone learned how much of a colossal faggot he was because the girls he was raping weren't girls at all, they just wore skirts.
trust me, she's NOT your typical woman, who would side with the feminists, not at all… lol no way
she's a REALIST…..
she watched the entire thing on TV both days of testimony
afterwards, she said "Dr. Ford was completely''' believable…. but he lied about those sex terms
she said, "if he had simply said 'look, I was young, I was in college, we were all girl-crazy, but that doesn't mean I groped her" then I would have respect for him. he's supposed to show honor and honesty, but instead he showed fear and deception"
Daniel Thomas
Here it is, he admitted drinking:
I really don't need to read a sob story right now.
Tyler Torres
Shit, oh man, I'd never be able to be a judge. I was drinking hard liqueur at the age of 14 for Christs sake!
Caleb Ward
Liqueur at 14, next couple years weed and then coke, latter in my life some narcotics but then kicked all that when I was in my 30s. Still like some good Scotch now and then though… but damn I'd be fucked if I was under oath!
Nolan Scott
Fuck off Moshe.
Connor Powell
Wait. Let's assume he did lie under oath. Why does it all of the sudden matter to you kikes? Where was this care for a women who lied under oath for years who was running for POTUS? Or any of her dozen+ lackeys who lied under oath as well?
Austin Moore
in fact, whenever Wendy hears women complain about the #metoo type of bullshit, she's always the first one to tell them to STFU………………………………
unless a woman has been violently raped or something equally as serious, Wendy will always tell them to SHUT IT………….
she tells them to GROW UP & ZIP IT
Aiden Butler
I never said ANYTHING about drinking
I'm not agreeing or disagreeing with your points about Hillary, or anyone else I'M TALKING ABOUT BRETT KAVANAUGH LYING ABOUT SEXUAL TERMINOLOGIES UNDER OATH
Samuel Gomez
devil's advocate:
to be fair, the FBI were given a list of names to interview.
NONE OF THEM WERE INTERVIEWED AT ALL…. NOT EVEN ONE
Jackson Murphy
Yep, let's just throw out Kavanaugh's statements said under oath and believe some guy talking shit on CNN. Yep, he couldn't possibly be lying himself. makes sense.
Jaxson Ortiz
So we have mind readers now? Because only he can say what they meant when he wrote them. Him only. For (((you))) to make that claim means (((you're))) implying you can read minds. Again; Fuck off Moshe.
Christopher Gutierrez
you guys always make the mistake of assuming I'm 'pro-hillary'………..
WHY ?….. why do you think that?……
(I fucking HATE HER GUTS, dude)
trust me, I hate her more than all of you put together
I honestly do
but she's not trying to be a Supreme Court Justice….. and she didn't lie last week under oath about sexual terminologies, saying they were 'drinking games''''…..
and THAT'S what I'm talking about today, not Hillary
Josiah Brooks
Tbh worse rapist than Cosby
Jordan Richardson
fuck no…. I'm very, very interested in his statements UNDER OATH
….and
you are being disingenuous because you know good and well those are sexual terminologies
Robert Howard
not at all…… he grabbed a titty
I'd be very worried about a highschool or college guy who DIDN'T grab a titty
but he lied
about sexual terms
under oath
which doesn't seem
like a big deal
until you consider
this was his
'job interview'
to become
A SUPREME COURT JUSTICE!!!!!!!
Justin Lopez
...
Aaron Thompson
You're right, it's important that we believe those women, so we can imprison more men without substantiating evidence.
There is no need to tether any claims of wrongdoing with evidence. Who needs evidence anyway?
Caleb White
IMPEACH DRRRRRRRMMMMMMMMMMPRRRRRRRRRRRMPH NAWWWWWWWWWR HAY HAY HO HO THEM NAZIS HAVE GOT TO GO !!!!!!!!!
Cooper Kelly
Why do you write like a retard?
Benjamin Torres
A: you just proved that my technique works
Jackson Brown
So you're trying to look like a retard intentionally to discredit your own arguments. That makes you an actual imbecile. Glad you have such an obvious style, makes it easy to ignore you in the future. Why not get a tripcode? Would make filtering you even more simple.
Landon Green
I don't like filtering anyone user. I actually find JN amusing at times. Annoying sometimes, yes, but amusing nonetheless.
Jordan Clark
I don't care about drinking big fucking deal of course he drank
any college guy who didn't drink is a douchebag
I don't care if he grabbed her tits… I would have, too
in fact, back then, she was kinda cute I wouldve done more than just grab her tits
what I in fact DO care about is a GOD DAMED JUDGE LYING UNDER FUCKING OATH
he could tell me that a blowjob is a European automobile……………..
he could tell me that a filthy Sanchez is a Taco Bell beverage…..
he could tell me that a reach around was a toothpaste……………..
but not under oath, because he's a GOD DAMNED JUDGE
Isaiah Peterson
How can you even decipher his gibberish without getting eye cramps?
Nathaniel Hall
lol @ you assuming that I didn't want you to ignore me…………..
Nicholas Moore
time to use our imaginations
imagine HOW MANY TIMES as a judge he probably punished the common man in his courtrooms for lying under oath
………see?
Isaiah Morris
and in a courtroom there is no 'sliding scale' of allowable lies while under oath……………..
it doesn't matter if it's a big lie or a little lie, because it's against the mall either way….
and?…. Kavanaugh is NOT on trial
this isn't a fucking trial it's a job interview…….
a job interview UNDER OATH
because it's a job interview, he's not entitled to a presumption of innocence.
Hillary Clinton is an evil, horrid, insane, maniacal piece of shit………………………
if she had been elected, right now I'd be in here complaining about her, ranting about how much I hate her…
I would….. big-time……
and I wouldn't be complaining about her politics…. because that's not the reason I hate her…. I would be complaining about her character, her personality… I would be complaining about the human being, not the political policies…..
that's the exact same way I hate Trump………………….
Kevin Lopez
im just pointing out the hypocrisy where one piece of shit is being heavily defended going "oh but muh reasonable doubt"
Kevin Johnson
Listen to William Johnny!
Anthony Ramirez
Interestingly Hillary hadn't been mentioned. But it is always fun to note the double standards of the many hypocritical Hillary supporters.
Somehow, I get the impression that James Roche smelled an opportunity for 15 minutes of fame (and probably large sums of money). Someone needs to audit his bank accounts and assets.
Ayden Sanchez
Come on shareblue, I doubt anyone's paying you for making shillary posts right now. It's okay, you can go home now assuming you have one
Isaiah Bailey
my buddy just came over and took me to a badass lunch
omg im so stuffed!! jeeeezusss!!
……aaaaaaaanyway…..
while we were eating, he showed me a picture of a hooker he fucked last night
G R O S S A S S H I T !!!
SHES DISGUSTING !!! I CANT BELIEVE HE FUCKED HER !!!
keep it up shitlibs. you won't win another election for 50 years at this rate.
Lucas Taylor
put that faggot under oath and under threat of perjury then, see what tale he spins
how the fuck would he know what the yearbook things meant? idk about you, but my HS yearbook never came up when talking to my freshman roomate that didn't go to the same HS as me
where were you and all your capital letters when he was elevated to the DC circuit court? or any of these other accusers and beard pullers? Kav has been making law for years without complaint and now all of a sudden…
BTW, Mr. capital letters, why dont you enlighten us all on all the things hes lied about. I mean, list them. You must know what they are since you're so impassioned about the whole thing
Asher Peterson
Are you wearing a batman mask while you write this?
Evan Hernandez
it was only a little lie
lied about his drinking and about the meaning of words in his yearbook. heavy drinking cAN'T BE PROVED, it's relative.
As for the meaning of these words I didn't know devil''s triangle meant a 3some or a menage et troi
and I thought boofing was ass chugging, not sodomy
so fuck off
Grayson Rogers
No they are not and no matter how hard you try they never will be.
James Nelson
the one thing they have him lying on is this
The texts between Berchem and Karen Yarasavage, both friends of Kavanaugh, suggest that the nominee was personally talking with former classmates about Ramirez’s story in advance of the New Yorker article that made her allegation public. In one message, Yarasavage said Kavanaugh asked her to go on the record in his defense. Two other messages show communication between Kavanaugh's team and former classmates in advance of the story.
He said under oath that he had never discussed it before that day
