Christine Blasey Ford, accuser of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, agrees to Senate testimony about sexual assault claim

• Christine Blasey Ford, a California professor at the center of a sexual assault accusation against U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, has agreed to testify to representatives of the Senate Judiciary Committee sometime next week.
• The details have yet to be worked out, but it could mean the end of a lengthy and emotional political fight that has stalled Kavanaugh's nomination.

  Below is the full text of the letter Ford's legal team sent to Senate staffers: [From the bottom of the link]

  Dr. Ford accepts the Committee's request to provide her first-hand knowledge of Brett Kavanaugh's sexual misconduct next week. Although many aspects of the proposal you provided via email, on September 21, 2018, at 2:33 pm, are fundamentally inconsistent with the Committee's promise of a fair, impartial investigation into her allegations, and we are disappointed with the leaks and the bullying that have tainted the process, we are hopeful that we can reach agreement on details. Can we set up a time for later this afternoon to continue our negotiations?

  Sincerely,

  Debra S. Katz

None of that is significant nopardons as this isn't about the so called happening or if or not she testifies......never was as you know.

Even if it's a concocted story, which we can easily assume it is....it's being played just the same as if it were. It really doesn't matter if we've been down this road before.....the question is why did the Republicans even agree to 'play' this?????? There was nothing there to begin with and they knew it.

So who is really in charge of our government???? It certainly isn't those playing in this created circus.

[CedarDave]

If she actually is in Delaware and her lawyer says it will take until Thursday to get her to DC from California, I sure hope someone has pictures of her there and it proves another Rat lie.

[caww]

Well it’s no secret Flake is all about anything that’s against what this administration wants. We’ve known this for a long wile now..........and Collins will always hold out for bribes from the highest bidder. I wish they’d go after her for that and others like her.

Beginning to look as if the voted aren’t there after all and both sides want more time to play this game rather than take the vote.

[SkyPilot]

I can’t post what I really want to say.

[caww]

Not about if or not she gets there nor if she testifies.....won’t matter what happens as long as the vote never happens.

It was easier to appoint Supreme Court Justices in the ‘50s also.

[CedarDave]

A present vote by Flake in committee would likely mean a tie vote and it comes out of committee with no recommendation. If he votes present in the full Senate, I don’t know what it means - tie vote with Pence breaking a tie if no one else defects?

Bump!

Spot on analysis. Well done,

[frank ballenger]

That’s an excellent analysis. You said it so well “coached magnificently” “Her memories will have returned” “well prepared.”

That is exactly the session work going on with the highly paid lawyers.

The propaganda teams (called—the news media) will have coincidentally the same terms for Kavanaugh such as “forever with a sex offender label even if pushed onto the Court to join fellow offender Thomas”(David Gergen said almost that 2 days ago-—the slimy cretin.)

I wonder if they’ll have glycerine drops for Ford as used in films to make actors cry “tears” on demand.

You know those focus group meters used to register “strongly agree” etc for phrases by candidates? What if they gave FReepers anger meters for watching Ford’s blather fest? Record breaking ultra rage is a choice, right?

Delay tactic

[nopardons]

Look, it's hardly my fault that you are a howling lunatic, who is delusions, stupid, has the IQ if three day roadkill, and utterly clueless.

That would be the fault of your parents; your grandfather and his daughter.

Keep on posting drivel, complaining about my caps,and heaping specious calumnies about me and my parents; none of that disproves a word of what I have posted.

[TexasGurl24]

If he voted “present” on the senate floor, it would be 50-49-1 if all of the RATs held. Pence wouldn’t need to break the tie.

I still suspect that Manchin has to vote yes on the floor, lest he commit harakiri in his Senate race.

That would make it 51-48-1.

It would depend on Collins and Murkowski in this scenario.

[Trumpisourlastchance]

A drunken teen trying to take off a drunken girl’s bathing suit at a house party is normal & expected, especially in the early 1980’s. This nation has gone insane.

[nopardons]

Ayanna Presley ( olkay, she's a GEN Xer, so sue me ), is a SOCIALIST dem.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez IS a Millenial and a SOCIALIST dem.

Both are in safe districts and states, so shall win.any of the

OTOH...many of the others are NOT, so winning the minimum of 23 seats, to gain a teensy majority, is hardly a foregone conclusion.

You want a full lis? GO DO YOUR OWN SCUT WORK!

[TexasGurl24]

If it’s just Flake holding up the process, and every other member of the GOP is on board for moving this forward, McConnell should strip him of his judiciary committee seat. Let him become a Rat. It’s still a 50-50 senate, and the nomination still goes forward with Pence breaking the tie.

Ford ‘accepts’ request to tell her side of alleged Kavanaugh assault; lawyers request Thursday hearing

Note: THURSDAY hearing.
Delay, delay, delay

[nopardons]

Grassley and ALL of the GOP is damned no matter WHAT they did.

If they pushed through the vote...BAD!

If they did/do what they did and continue to do.....VERY BAD!

So there was NO good choice and Grassley tried to be accommodating, in order to stave off the worst of the garbage that he knew would be coming down the pike at him. This maneuver hasn't worked, it has just made some here, foolishly MORE angry.

Sure, it's frustrating and now, Grassley needs to just realize that this has gone on far too long, he can't win, no matter what he does, short of having Kavanaugh appear and then killing him, on T.V. and declaring that he has just "SAVE AMERICA" from the horrible GOPers and Trump and that he, Grassley is now a DEM and shall help to remove Trump when the House impeaches him!
