Ford says she was taking advice from friends, options. Thought the best route would be civic route to call Eshoo’s office and WaPo. Neither got back to her before Kavanaugh was announced. Eshoo responded on July 9 when Kavanaugh was named.

Ford, didn’t want to go media route really, so left it at WaPo. Mitchell: did you talk with WaPo reporter after? Yes, thru encrypted chat. Mitchell: did you talk to anyone officially before story? Yes, Eshoo and staff. In person. July 10 & 20.
