This is just nuts. She’s trying to destroy a man’s career and public reputation, and she gets to do it behind closed doors? What incredible bulls-—

She should have to testify in an open session, but, and I mean BUT, closed to the public so we don’t have the parade of screaming clowns that we had during Judge Kavanaugh’s testimony.

And we need to hear from her because??

Like what Kavanaugh was alleged to have done over forty years ago makes him guilty.

Common sense has died in this country along with any semblance of decency.

Calling her bluff was the right move. She ain’t going to show. Difi will keep demanding the FBI get involved as her personal police force and Fartacus and the Ugandan Giant will keep flinging poop for the entire hearing and Kavanaugh will be confirmed by October.

“Sen. Orrin Hatch (Utah), a senior Republican on the committee, said if Ford doesn’t come to testify before the committee, a hearing will still likely take place Monday.”

Bring in the 4 guys and old boyfriends to blast her credibility. If she doesn’t show up to defend herself, she is toast.

Her testimony may be behind closed doors, but it will almost certainly be a matter of public record. There is no national security issue involved here.

I don't even think they're laying a trap for her anymore. I just think they're bending over backwards to accommodate her so they'll have some protection against the inevitable accusations that they were unfair to her.

I almost peed in my pants, I'm laughing so hard at this.

I love to see the Senators make fools of themselves. Make them face the cameras. They lose and will have political crow in their face.

Called both my senators. No privacy. She makes the accusation, She tells it publicly.

My crappy prediction: About 12 hours before the hearing she will finally agree to testify, and propose a date 2 weeks out.

TOTAL BS! Rino’s will do anything to let victory evade them. We must know if this woman is lying and she must be publicly pilloried if she is. These congress critters always forget who they work for.

The Democrats want to restage the Anita Hill hearings, 4 days of hearings with something like 22 witnesses over the allegations of a Pattern of behavior, all in front of cameras. Apparently, the Democrats are about to invent “witnesses” who are going to be prepared to say that they learned about this from Catherine Ford.

The Anita Hill scheme failed, but the purpose of that effort was aimed at turning Democrat Senators. They did not turn enough Democrat Senators, mostly old line Democrat Southerners. They voted for Thomas and he was confirmed. The purpose of this effort is intended to turn one of these Senators: Collins, Corker, Flake, or Murkowski. They only need one. If one of them tell their leadership that they are going to vote no, then the vote would have to be delayed until after the midterm election, which is the real goal.
