Christine Blasey Ford, the California psychology professor who accused Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct 36 years ago, received a $1 million windfall and is receiving several requests for book deals after her testimony.
RealClearInvestigations reported Monday that Ford’s 15 minutes of fame before the Senate Judiciary Committee in September has turned her into a millionaire, raking in an estimated $1 million from crowdfunding campaigns supporting her and several book deals since her testimony.
Despite Ford’s windfall, several Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee, including Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), said Ford had “nothing to gain” by coming forward with her accusations to the committee.
“You had absolutely nothing to gain by bringing these facts to the Senate Judiciary Committee,” Durbin said during Ford’s testimony in September.
“I want to thank you,” Harris also said during the September hearing. “Because you clearly have nothing to gain for what you have done.”

Can’t wait for the book, story’s are always best when they have no details.

Good for her. Maybe that is payback for almost being raped.

Perhaps someone tried to at some point. But it wasn't Kavenaugh. Literally not one person could testify that the two of them ever even met, let alone attended a party together.

I don't care that she made money... A fool and their money are soon parted or something like that is the old quote.
The only thing I am curious about is how much of the money came from DNC people (read potential payoff money), and how much came from actual people that wanted to help her.
