Ford made at least a cool, tax-free million bucks (I presume it's tax free?) so Kavanaugh should pry that from her the day after he leaves the bench.
The optics of a Supreme involved in a lawsuit would be ugly... I wonder what they're supposed to do if someone criminally defames them? They cannot actually wait because the limitation time is just 6 years (libel) and 2 years (slander).
What Ford did was Libel, because it was mostly on TV.
Also perjury.
Defamation of a public figure is nearly impossible to prove in the US. It's rarely pursued. They're not "supposed to" do anything, but most are going to choose not to file a case that's very difficult to win.
