It is one hour to the deadline. Will Grassley hold the line or will he fold?
Thumbs Up!
Missed that. Was watching PDJT in the show me state.
That not what they said. He will not be seated for the first case and will not be able to rule on any cases that are presented before he is seated.
Sticks - the Turtle said with great assurance today that Kavanaugh will be seated on the Court - I think they have promises from the ‘pubs that if she doesn’t show after having been given the chance to testify and give her story, all ‘pubs will vote aye - hoping so anyhow....
He will stick.
First 10 will come and go and we won't hear anything from Grassley. Second the Ford/Democrat Lawyers know they can wait until Monday, Tuesday or even Wednesday Morning then call up and say OK she will testify and Grassley will have to allow it. Does anyone think for a second Grassley would be able to then say no this women had her chance so she can't testify now? lol, not a chance. Grassley would be accused of silencing a victim of sexual abuse and doing even more harm to her.
The only way to stop this is to forget giving Ford deadlines and just set the day for the vote. Grassley should set the vote for Wednesday or Thursday and vote. That ends it. Otherwise if he keeps setting the schedule based on Fords response or lack thereof this will continue until the Presidents 1st term is over.
Good grief the Republicans are incompetent.
but he’ll miss out on the group photo!
41 minutes and counting. Have the press corps started to gather yet?
I totally believe he will be there for the opening October 1st.
Grassley will hold the line.
The question is whether Ford will testify. I don’t think Ford wants to testify but the Fake Stream Media has built this up to the point I think she has to testify or she will be ruined for life.
What’s ironic is that if Ford testifies, it gives cover to RINO’s like Flake and Collins to vote for Kavanaugh. They can say Ford was questioned by the Senate and they heard her and decided there wasn’t enough evidence to vote against Kavanaugh. Or something.
I think at the end of this, Kavanaugh gets confirmed.
The big problem is that the republicans don’t keep their campaign promises and the democrats do!
I fear you are correct but I keep holding out hope for some republican backbone. I know, I know. You don’t have to say it.
Not be seated? Why?!
They have to vote by Thursday or else it will not get done..some screwy senate rules...
That is why the want the delay Ford
Thanks for that clarification.
Is it 10 EST or Pacific time?
Rush is right, was right, and will always be right. The Left cannot be reasoned with, it must be destroyed.
EST
They will respond at 2205 and ask for more time.
Stop saying he has to be voted by Thursday or cannot serve. That is wrong. Judges are seated in the middle of a term all the time; I.e. Gorsuch.
