Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Arizona, sits on the Judiciary Committee and had previously said the committee should hold off on voting until they hear from the accuser. However, Flake said Tuesday that if Ford fails to appear at the hearing scheduled for Monday, he would support his party's push to move forward on a vote on Kavanaugh.

"I think we'll have to move to the markup," he told CNN.

Flake said he's hopeful Ford will accept the committee's invitation and speak at the hearing. "I hope she does. I think she needs to be heard," he said.

He doesn’t want to be associated with Dr. Flake.

Democrats lost Corker and now they’ve lost Flake and quite likely, Collins and Murkowski as well.

Take it to the bank. Its over and that’s all, folks!

All seems choreographed, like most Bolshevik plots.

It looks like she’s not going to show on Monday. Take the vote!

“She is not prepared to talk with them at a hearing on Monday.”
“She will talk with the committee,” Banks said. “She is not prepared to talk with them at a hearing on Monday.

This just came out 48 hours ago.”
“Asking her to come forward in four or five days and sit before the Judiciary Committee on national TV is not a fair process. If they care about doing the right thing here and treating this seriously as they have said, then they will do the right thing and they will properly investigate this, and she will work with them in that investigation and also to share her story with the committee,” Banks said Tuesday night

It’s up to Flake, as to what he wants to go home to for the remainder of his retirement. May his neighbors be interesting.
