Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s attorneys have reached a tentative agreement during a conference call with bi-partisan committee staffers for her to testify on Thursday before the Senate Judiciary Committeewho regarding her uncorroborated accusations that Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her decades ago at a drunken high school pool party. Kavanaugh adamantly denies Blasey Ford’s accusations and has had dozens of women who have known him for decades come to his defense as character witnesses.

On Thursday is a full cave. That’s the one point I wish they stuck to, but I guess Collins/Flake wouldn’t allow them to.

The DATE of the testimony was the least important item under consideration. Who the hell cares when that happens?

The format of the testimony is the most critical, and you can be damn sure Grassley is sticking to his guns on that several of those terms: Ford goes first, and the witness has no right to call other witnesses (just typing that last line made me realize how absurd that demand is).

A Republican -- especially a man -- can't say that.

But Christine Buzzy Ford is basically saying that with every hour that passes without her testimony after she initially "demanded to be heard."

Sorry. The combined audiences of Ellen and The View will be in the galleries and over the podium lighted “Boo” and “Applause” signs will be allowed by Grassley. Remember the first two days of screaming modern day Thoreau demonstrators who interrupted everything all day? They’re baaaaacccck.

They could have dropped another bomb already.

If this Buzzy Ford was the first bomb they had, I'd say they are down to throwing rocks at this point.

“”…. but the Committee will still vote for Judge Kavanaugh to become a Supreme Court Justice on Monday, right?””

NO.

Not enough time to go through the parliamentary procedures to get to to vote to the senate floor (takes a week if on rush)...… this means the new Supreme Court justice will not be on the court for the opening in October.

Sad...but we will still get OUR GUY!!

Which makes me wonder if some or most of those demands aren’t red herrings.

Yeah tentative my ass..I want to know if Kavanaugh is going to be forced to testify first

He shouldn't, but Grassley will do anything to comply with her wishes. I'll bet that she won't even have to be under oath, while Kavanaugh will be.

Bullsh*t. That is not the game plan. There will be no testimony from her. Zilch-zero- nada. I believe that with every fiber of my being. They will move the goal post again. It’s not real. It didn’t happen. That is why she will never ever show up.

What a f*cking Piece of crap this whole thing is. Again, feel bad for this great man.

How do you know? Grassley has been caving to Ford for a week now. So, he’ll suddenly grow a pair next week? Grassley is an embarrassment.

They ARE red herrings.

Any competent lawyer would advise Ford NOT to testify here. She has way too much legal exposure if she does, and there's really no upside for her. That's why she hasn't even submitted a formal written statement to the committee 24+ hours in advance -- which would be the first step in actually testifying. The committee needs this so they have a formal record of what she intends to testify ABOUT.

In the back of their minds, I'm sure her lawyers are laying the groundwork for a "graceful exit" for their client.

Tentatively, Charles Grassley said that he will have the words, “Gutless Coward RINO” tattooed on his forehead.

If Grassley makes Kavanaugh testify first he is going to be laughed all the way back to Iowa. That demand is so preposterous that it never should have even been made. It proves that Ford's story is B.S. and she needs the Democrats on the committee to ask Kavanaugh questions to fill in the holes of her story.
