Its fine. Each request makes her look bad and the republicans look like they are being very fair. It’s still Wednesday. I think they are going to vote it out of committe and then hold the hearing. I hope

Not a joke. What a spineless turd, or he doesn't have the votes from the other spineless turds.

Sen Grassley’s latest Tweet:

“With all the extensions we give Dr Ford to decide if she still wants to testify to the Senate I feel like I’m playing 2nd trombone in the judiciary orchestra and Schumer is the conductor”

Oh please. You think Grassley tweets, and uses phrases like “I hope u understand.”?

This is just a juvenile joke.

Will Republicans ever learn that no matter what they do the Democrats and their faithful servants in the press will misrepresent it, criticize, and condemn.

That's a given so they may as well do the right thing, in this case hold the vote. That way they will get credit for showing some spine at least.

AT 85 it is time for CHUCK GRASSLEY, to resign immediately. He is a CC of Hussein Obama, drawing a red line in the sand in Syria .

Settle down and check Sen. Grassley’s twitter feed. He knows what he is doing even if FR doesn’t.

How much extension?! Until time is past and nomination is dead? Until the November election date? Until Hell Freezes Over? Is Grassley a Republican or a Democrat?

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) said late Friday night that he has given Christine Blasey Ford an extension to decide whether to testify on her allegations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

Grassley wrote on Twitter that he had "just granted another extension to Dr Ford to decide if she wants to proceed [with] the statement she made last week to testify to the [Senate]."

The GOP chairman wrote that Ford "[should] decide so we can move on," adding, "I want to hear her."

Grassley made the comments hours after a lawyer for Ford sent an email to the Judiciary Committee requesting another day to decide on testifying next week.

Ford lawyer Debra Katz called the 10 p.m. timeline set by Grassley's staff "arbitrary" and an "aggressive and artificial" deadline.

"Its sole purpose is to bully Dr. Ford and deprive her of the ability to make a considered decision that has life-altering implications for her and her family. She has already been forced out of her home and continues to be subjected to harassment, hate mail, and death threats," Katz wrote.

"Our modest request is that she be given an additional day to make her decision," she continued.

I suspect someone other than the Senator actually types his tweets. He is known for a folksy sense of humor (I actually met him in 1982 in the Capitol when I interned for the Senate Majority as a college student)...

Here is his verified Twitter account:

It’s a verified account and his tweets go back a long time and they look real enough.
