Fox News was told that the Republican senators want an answer by the end of the day.
In a statement released Friday evening, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley extended the deadline for a response to 10 p.m. If there's no response, or a rejection of the offer, Grassley said in a statement, the committe may set a vote on Kavanaugh's nomination for Monday.
Im extending the deadline for response yet again to 10 oclock this evening," Grassley said. "Im providing a notice of a vote to occur Monday in the event that Dr. Fords attorneys dont respond or Dr. Ford decides not to testify. In the event that we can come to a reasonable resolution as Ive been seeking all week, then I will postpone the committee vote to accommodate her testimony."
"We cannot continue to delay.
We need to hear from her, said one senior source familiar with the process. Monday is the preferred date. But we are open to other things.
A senior Republican source told Fox News we cant postpone forever.
For their part, Democrats reacted negatively to the offer. California Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee, said Ford shouldnt be rushed. She said Ford cant testify any earlier than Thursday.

I’m surprised she hasn’t run to the ER with complaints of a nervous collapse, stress complaints. Not that I’d wish it on anyone.
Grassley is a moron. The deadline should not have been extended.
I would buy the Enquirer issue that details all her lovers.
What you should have said is here is our final offer. You must take it by 10PM or Monday we are moving to a committee vote.
well, it’s 5:48pm California time. Crickets. One hour and a tick left. (not quite, she did open up to make a comment about Garrett)
Yep. Imagine what those stories from her former boy toys would do to statutory rape laws and policies, not to mention the last nail in the feminist “believe her” line.
Grassley is not a moron....he and a team of investigators have played this very shrewdly.
Public opinion is clearly against the accuser and each time they have granted a short delay, the Committee investigators have continued to INTERVIEW dozens and dozens of people who went to those high schools in that time frame. They have compiled so many statements it would be your head spin.
The main issue is Ford won’t testify under oath! That means she won’t appear.
Game ove. Tilt. Her attorneys have one hour now to respond and they won’t. Grassley rightly said the vote will be called Monday.

There is no reason not to seat Kavanaugh. The House can impeach Scotus members under section 3, with a senate trial. Section 3 deals with improper behavior of Scotus members. So, she can scream ‘no voice’ all she wants, but since there is still a due process avenue available, she can do nothing except wait to see if the House and Senate are willing to impeach a seated Kavanaugh. Which is a little more involved than a simple committee hearing. And to impeach him on her behalf, they’re going to need a whooooollle lot of new evidence. And she will be forced to testify.
Hold the vote!
We now know why she picked Thursday. If they do vote not by Thursday its over, Kavanaugh can NEVER be seated. If she shows up Thursday theres now way there will be a vote in time.
LOL !!
No doubt.
