Washington (CNN)The Senate Judiciary Committee has proposed holding a hearing next Wednesday where they will hear testimony from both Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford, the woman accusing him of sexual assault, according to a source with knowledge of the matter.
A deadline for Ford's legal team to respond to Senate Republicans' proposal for the hearing has been extended from 5 p.m. ET Friday to 10 p.m., Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley said in a statement. If Ford's lawyers do not respond to the proposal or Ford decides not to testify by the deadline, Grassley said, the committee will vote on Kavanaugh's nomination Monday.

Why bother to testify. She is going to be on Sixty Minutes on Sunday (according to a discussion thread here)
To: mdittmar
It doesn't mean a damn thing Grassley says, there will be no vote Monday. You can bet on that.

These crazy democrats are attacking the foundations of our country.

She knows she has no evidence to present. She wont appear. This is all a big joke. They dont want the hearing. They want the issue.
Those mean Republicans silenced the sexual attack survivor.
If she testifies they lose the case and the issue.

there was no immediate public response from Ford’s lawyers. That silence and Grassley’s offer, which did not rule out further compromise, left uncertain whether Ford would appear and tell lawmakers and a captivated nation about her allegation that an inebriated Kavanaugh trapped her on a bed and tried removing her clothes when both were teenagers in the 1980s. NBC.
So Grassley will comprise again?

Don't doubt Grassley! The man is 85 and still mows his lawn with 3 mowers.
Balls, I tell ya! Kavanaugh will be confirmed by end of month.
To: mdittmar
Of course shell agree to testify. Its part of the game. Its the testifying that is elusive. Republicans are saps.
