Ford is doing to Kavanaugh what that Green Party babe tried to do to Trump after the election. The left really think they can subvert the democracy if they don’t like the outcome of an election or a due process.

"I don’t necessarily like Mitch, but I trust him when he puts his reputation on the line. Everything will be fine. I’m going on a news blockout for the next few days."

Agreed.

Turtle has his moments when he is infuriating but he has been solid on judicial nominations. Yes, everyone wants "right now" but that is not the way it ever works. We wouldn't have Gorsuch if it wasn't for his courage, and he took a whole lot of flack for that one. If he says it's gonna happen and soon, I think you can take that to the bank.

Agree. I don’t understand why people want to always seek out and embrace the negative.

Flake seems to be the key here. Flake once said if she doesn't testify Monday, we proceed with the vote.

He's not up for reelection so he may not give a damn, but to back off of his own committment makes a fool of Grassley, Mitch, the Senate as a whole, and the common rule of law, including the right of the accused to confront his accuser. If Flake surrenders any further, he turns all on it's head.

Senators Grassley, Mitch and many more won't let themselves to be made fools.

No, they missed the deadline so the original hearing date of Monday is on the schedule.

3). Is correct. He states the truth about his nonexistence at her HS party

Monday -Congrats to BK and all toast his celebration.

Make no doubt about it, they will concoct horrendous nth hour accusations against Trump’s next appointment to smear him or her. They will play like dirty cops supplant contraband or threaten their families. Their new low is some where in the pits of hell.

Mitch doesn’t go out on a limb and saying stuff that isn’t credible.

Why tweet about it??

He knows........and he knows the votes already.

It is blatantly transparent that delay is the objective. "Maybe" by Thursday, "if"conditions are met, "without the accused in the room.".BS.

They'd delay again, until the SC was seated in October. and there's every reason they'd get away with it, once they saw Flake , Grassley, even DjT submit to their demands for the sake of appearing reasonable.

Bad behaviour which is rewarded gets repeated. Stop it now before the other half of the country throws you overboard as gutless wimps. Their half will always consider you slime, no matter how accommodating.

Under no circumstances should Kavanaugh testify about anything related to Betty Ford’s “allegation.”

I recall all that. They were trying desperately to overturn the election. While Trump prevailed, a weaker candidate may have been undermined and defeated by their tricks. And they haven’t quit in their attempts to remove him from office, have they?

IMHO, they toss mud from every direction and attack like the pack of rabid dogs that they are- like jackals and hyenas.

If they can gain a leg on any issue, no matter how minute or ridiculous, they will run with it by propaganda and media bombardment. They have think tanks and caustic machines that work non-stop to destroy potus.

"He’s not caving. He’s saying f the IG doesn’t release it, he will."

Your faith is strong, but yes he did. He ordered an immediate release and now he has agreed to a DOI IG review process of indeterminate length, plus he did not say he would release after this review but that he could. For those who hoped for an unredacted release well before the election, now what and when is up in the air.

Since Blasey-Ford has made no formal verbal allegation, he should just silently stand for a vote? Legally, that may be correct.

But what about the optics? How does he clean his skin after getting dragged into a week of their mud?

(It’s Blasey , not deceased Betty -Gerry’s wife)

Defamation lawsuit. Couldn’t Kavanaugh Ssue for defamation/slander/libel, or were you referring to something else? Is there any reason why a sitting Supreme Court Justice shouldn’t?
