The Senate Judiciary Committee will proceed to a planned vote on Supreme Court Nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh Thursday, sources tell Breitbart News Monday.
Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) is, according to these sources, refusing to yield to pressure over allegations of a high school attack revealed by Democrats over the weekend. Since July, Ranking Member Diane Feinstein (D-CA) had possession of a letter from California professor Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, claiming that Kavanaugh and another teenager had forced her into a room at a 1982 party where Kavanaugh forced himself on her before she escaped.
Feinstein declined to introduce the letter at any point before or during the four-day public hearings on Kavanaughs nomination, but went public after media reports of the letter began to surface.

I heard that they were pushing it back-and testimony on Monday?
A while ago I heard too that they are postponing the vote.
But I just saw this article at Breitbart that the latest is that they will hold the vote aftwerall.
I hope so.
I hope this turns out to be true.
this is all “sources” not an officially released statement
I think this is dated as Republicans in the Senate joined Democrats in getting Grassley to set a new hearing. Can’t have a vote until after the new hearing. I don’t see them voting until next Thursday or so, if ever since they have caved. Senate Republicans are playing with fire, won’t be able to criticize or challenge Ford without backlash—war on women talk. Trump loses, Kavanaugh loses, Americans lose.
Committee vote <> floor vote.
How do you know that it is the latest?
I hope and pray that this info is true!
The left has 2 wars going on now. I know Trump can do it, but politicians? The declassifying is going to sink their ship and it will consume all of their energy to spin it.
I think that’s an old story
Sadly, I think you’re correct.
Dont think this is current. Heard that it will be a week from this Wednesday.
It was today on Breitbart News. I gave the link to the article.
“Two sources close to the confirmation process, however, told Breitbart News that Republicans will not yield to that pressure. One claimed the Thursday vote would occur no matter what. The other confirmed that Chairman Grassley remains completely committed to the originally scheduled Thursday vote.”
BTTT.
I heard that is has been shoved to next week, too and that was at 6:00 P.M.!
I have a recovered memory of Chrissie “Bumper Hitch” Blasey orally raping small boys.
Grassley already put out an official statement saying they were both going to testify on Monday. The Thursday vote is delayed.
Good!
