Planned Parenthood & NARAL Tweet About Who They ‘Still Believe’, Twitter Quickly Responds
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley referred Michael Avenatti and Julie Swetnick to the DOJ “for a possible criminal probe over allegations of false statements to Congress regarding Brett Kavanaugh,” as he should in this situation.
Grassley, a Republican from Iowa cited “contradictions” between what Avenatti’s client, Julie Swetnick, had originally told the Judiciary Committee about Kavanaugh in an affidavit in late September, and what she said about the then-Supreme Court nominee a few days later during an interview with NBC News.
In the letter to Attorney General Jeff Sessions and FBI Director Christopher Wray asking for an investigation, Grassley listed “potential violations” of federal criminal code, specifically “conspiracy, false statements and obstruction of Congress.”

“Swetnick made her allegations in a sworn statement to the committee on September 26. In an October 1 interview with NBC News, however, Swetnick specifically and explicitly back-tracked or contradicted key parts of her sworn statement on these and other allegations,” the Judiciary Committee said in a statement.
“In subsequent interviews, Avenatti likewise cast serious doubt on or contradicted the allegations while insisting that he had thoroughly vetted his client,” according to the statement.
The Senate Judiciary tweeted Thursday on their verified Twitter account with the following announcement:
“Swetnick, Avenatti Referred for Criminal Investigation: Providing False Statements, Obstructing Congressional Investigations, and Conspiracy All Violate Federal Law https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/press/rep/releases/swetnick-avenatti-referred-for-criminal-investigation …”

Michael Avenatti (@MichaelAvenatti), aka “Creepy Porn Lawyer”, responded to Grassley’s referral saying he and Swetnick “welcome the investigation,” then slammed the senator for allegedly not showing enough interest into Swetnick’s claims.
“It is ironic that Senator Grassley now is interested in investigations. He didn’t care when it came to putting a man on the SCOTUS for life. We welcome the investigation as now we can finally get to the bottom of Judge Kavanaugh’s lies and conduct. Let the truth be known.”
