Senate panel reaches tentative deal for Kavanaugh accuser to testify Thursday
The Hill ^ | 09/22/18 | Jordain Carney

Posted on 09/22/2018 5:40:34 PM PDT by yesthatjallen

The Senate Judiciary Committee has reportedly reached a tentative agreement for Christine Blasey Ford, the woman accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault, to testify next week.

The deal, struck hours after Ford's lawyer responded to an early afternoon deadline saying that she would testify before the panel, would have her testify on Thursday, according to multiple reports.

The person briefed on talks between the Judiciary Committee and Ford's lawyers told the AP that talks would continue into Sunday.

Tweet: Nicholas Fanos: NEW: Per multiple sources familiar, lawyers for Blasey Ford, Grassley and Feinstein have tentatively agreed to a THURSDAY hearing in a call this evening.

The skank better be under oath.

It doesn't matter. She's not going to show up. Grassley is either too stupid or too old and feeble to see that he's being played here. The Democrats are just running down the clock, that's all.

So that means everything's delayed another full week.

They wanted Thursday because it takes two days after testimony to vote, so it'll go till Monday the following week. That is the entire reason Thursday was wanted so desperately by this Democrat activist and the Democrat advisers that have surrounded her.

I fail to see why?
This is not about a woman searching for truth.

They are being played as everyone runs out the clock. If she shows up I’ll be surprised. There are more games coming out of this. I would not be surprised that one of her stops, is to file a police report or complaint on her way to the committee hearing. That will cap off this disaster.

And if they wanna hold a presser and call it testimony, you can bet they’ll do it.

It wouldn’t be the first time they’ve pi$$ed down John Q Public’s leg then told him it’s raining.

Yeah...so much for GrASSley’s statement that she would have to testify by Wednesday, in order for Kav to be there for first arguments.

What a total and corrupt, sickening joke the DC swamp is. Who, other than POTUS, is NOT complicit in that town???

If he’s not confirmed this will be the greatest domestic political coup of my lifetime. This man has an impeccable record in every aspect.

Is she going to drive, or fly? If driving, she will find some excuses from there to cause further delay.

“It doesn’t matter. She’s not going to show up. Grassley is either too stupid or too old and feeble to see that he’s being played here. The Democrats are just running down the clock, that’s all.”

I think this will be Grassley’s last hurrah as committee Chairman. If the GOP retains control of the Senate, I doubt Grassley will be Chairman.

Well, the paid protesters are being bused in, as we type. They have training on Monday and then are let loose, in time for this charade.
