The Senate Judiciary Committee has reportedly reached a tentative agreement for Christine Blasey Ford, the woman accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault, to testify next week.
The deal, struck hours after Ford's lawyer responded to an early afternoon deadline saying that she would testify before the panel, would have her testify on Thursday, according to multiple reports.
The person briefed on talks between the Judiciary Committee and Ford's lawyers told the AP that talks would continue into Sunday.

I’m done.
The Republicans are useless.
I see nothing funny .
We caved to every point.
Brent does not get seated thsnks to that date they insisted on
Give us your great insight about caving on every point ?
Why is time on our side? Because ultimately people have a sense of fairness and this baseless crap will backfire. I hate that people like Flakey and Collins are allowing this to happen. Grassley is trading time for votes, and I believe it will work out for good and that the backlash will be severe when it is over.
One Day More
Christine Ford:
One day more,
Another day, another destiny,
This never ending road to Calvary;
These men who seem to know my crime
Will surely come a second time,
One day more...Brett Kavanaugh:
One more day before the storm!
At the barricades of Freedom!
When our ranks begin to form,
Will you take your place with me?Chuck Schumer:
One more day to revolution,
We will nip it in the bud!
We'll be ready for these schoolboys,
They will wet themselves with blood!Chuck Grassley & Mitch McConnell:
Watch'm run amuck,
Catch'm as they fall,
Never know your luck
When there's a free-for-all,
Here a little dip
There a little touch,
Most of them are goners
So they won't miss much!Us:
One day to a new beginning
Raise the flag of freedom high!
Every man will be a king
Every man will be a king
There's a new world for the winning
There's a new world to be won
Do you hear the people sing?All:
Tomorrow we'll discover
What our God in Heaven has in store!
One more dawn
One more day
One day more!

The Republicans are useless.

They are worse than that. They are backstabbers, always doing the opposite of what they promise.
They want our votes and our money, but not our values and principles.
The eGOP is stupid to go for this unless they don't want Kavanaugh confirmed.
This is just a delaying tactic, the lying accuser and her idiot attorney will not do this on the day appointed as has been done several times. The committee needs to just bring the session out to the full senate. And vote.
Have you driven a Ford lately?
Flying is too traumatic. Methinks she will surf in.
Not only her, they have a team already working on her former class mates enticing or by other means, to get them to solidify her story. Be not surprised if another woman comes forward here soon.
"The show must go on!"
The committee needs to just bring the session out to the full senate. And vote.

You mean the Committee now being run by Ford’s attorney?
It's not a year lost. It might be a week or so, but not a year. As soon as Kavanaugh is confirmed, he joins the Court.
If they don’t want it to look like a trial, then her lawyers should recuse themselves.
Ok, apologies to all. Its apparently the first sitting or more depending on how long Republicans drag this out.
The Term is divided between “sittings,” when the Justices hear cases and deliver opinions, and intervening “recesses,” when they consider the business before the Court and write opinions. Sittings and recesses alternate at approximately two-week intervals.
It would be like Kris Bryant or Ronald Acuna sitting out the first couple weeks of the season and then being called up to the big leagues. They didn’t have to sit out the whole year. Kavanaugh can still be SCOTUS Rookie of the Year. :-)
And still no un-redacted letter from Feinstein right?
Im not sure that I have the stomach to watch any more hearings on the Kavanaugh confirmation. We have reached a new altitude of absurdity here.
It’s still so unnecessary, he could already be on the court.
My bigger fear is if they manage to stop him, it will set a devastating precedent. Anyone can lie and stop the nominee.
NONONONONONONO!!!!!!!!!!!! God BLEEP it Grassley, you said it be Monday or else, you spineless coward!
Exactly!!! Winner! Timing is less important than blowing holes in her story of which we are now up to 3 separate witnesses who deny Kavanaugh being at any party with Ford.
Truth will see the light of day.
Shes not going to show up
Why would she when she can tell the same lies on TV talk shows without being under oath?
