Christine Blasey Ford, accuser of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, agrees to Senate testimony about sexual assault claim

  • Christine Blasey Ford, a California professor at the center of a sexual assault accusation against U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, has agreed to testify to representatives of the Senate Judiciary Committee sometime next week.
  • The details have yet to be worked out, but it could mean the end of a lengthy and emotional political fight that has stalled Kavanaugh's nomination.

    Below is the full text of the letter Ford's legal team sent to Senate staffers: [From the bottom of the link]

    Dr. Ford accepts the Committee's request to provide her first-hand knowledge of Brett Kavanaugh's sexual misconduct next week. Although many aspects of the proposal you provided via email, on September 21, 2018, at 2:33 pm, are fundamentally inconsistent with the Committee's promise of a fair, impartial investigation into her allegations, and we are disappointed with the leaks and the bullying that have tainted the process, we are hopeful that we can reach agreement on details. Can we set up a time for later this afternoon to continue our negotiations?

    Sincerely,

    Debra S. Katz

All probably depends on how soon the busloads of protesters can get there.

“details to be worked out”

Nope. She hasn’t agreed to testify. She put out a place holder so they can delay some more.

Dr. Ford says that she will gladly testify for you on Tuesday for a Kavanaugh withdrawal today...

I thought Grassley said the hearing needs to be by Wednesday, to get Kav seated by Oct 1st.

If Grassley caves on this....there needs to be a revolt....a march on the Mall....pitchforks time.

This mockery has gone on about 3 weeks too long .. gawd how I hate those Rat bastards !

Don't blame the Democrats for fighting. They clearly understand what is at stake here. Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court will be catastrophic for liberalism.

Blame the Republican senate. Never has a more cowardly legislative body existed in DC.

LOL...I just posted similar, on the other thread.

This is never going to end unless they impose a hard deadline. Her attorney is just going to stay in the news cycle, the GOP is just going to keep caving into her demands.

Oh now it’s Thursday.

Right - it is the same “agreement” to testify they said before any of these deadlines - the deadlines were set because their terms were not appropriate nor acceptable. They have “agreed” to nothing.

Grassley may be playing this brilliantly. He may even let this run all the way to Election Day ... and not out of incompetence or weakness, either.

This whole issue is completely removed from the Democrats as a political weapon as long as Christine Buzzy Ford stalls the process indefinitely. In fact, she's doing great damage to the Democrats as we sit here now.

If this process drags on and: (1) Ford doesn't show up to testify; and (2) the confirmation vote is held up indefinitely while goobers like Flake and Corker keep saying "we must hear from her" ... then Christine Buzzy Ford can't make any media appearances to tell her fake story in a venue that doesn't expose her to perjury charges.

They've probably got taped interviews of her all lined up -- produced by the Democrat propaganda machine and ready to be shown on 60 Minutes, the Today show, Loser Holt's Dateline NBC, etc. She's had extensive cosmetic surgery, cries on cue, and puts on a good show. They probably have about four hours of video clips, which they prepared for the purpose of putting no more than the best 20 minutes on the air.

But they can only put it out to attack Kavanaugh AFTER he is confirmed ... and they can't put it out AT ALL if she testifies under oath.

She already said she would testify if her demamds were met. This was supposed to be will you testify with what we’ve offered so the answer is no. This, ladies and gentlemen, is how the party would be run if Flake were leading it. Make no mistake about it. He, Collins and Murkowski are leading these “negotiations” from the GOPe side and Grassley has to take all the blame.
