In her testimony to the Senate Ford said that she didn't know that the Republicans had offered to send a woman to California to question Ford so that Ford wouldn't have to go to DC and testify in public.
But it's a matter of public record that the Republicans reached out to her, through her lawyers, multiple times offering precisely that.
There are two possibilities here; either Ford lied under oath or her lawyers didn't communicate the Republicans offer to her.
The complaint assumes that Ford wasn't lying and that the her Democrat activists lawyers hid the truth from her because the Democrats in the Senate wanted a public hearing. That makes sense given the political beliefs of the lawyers and the fact that her public testimony established her credibility in the minds of many Americans.
On the other hand we know that Ford lied about being unable to fly so perhaps she was lying again to avoid looking like a manipulative person who was trying to get sympathy for having to fly to DC. After all if she didn't have to fly to DC but she chose to do so there's no reason to feel sorry for her because she didn't want to go to DC.
If Ford lied that would tend to make her credibility doubtful at best.
If Ford didn't lie then it means that the Democrats used her without any concern for her "victim" status to further their own political ends. That, in conjunction with how Democrat #MeToo cases are treated by Democrats, would make it clear that Democrats don't give a darn about women who have been sexually assaulted beyond their utility in giving Democrats more power.
