Dr. Christine Blasey Ford‘s legal team has sent a letter (which can be seen below via NBC’s Frank Thorp) to the Senate Judiciary Committee amid continuous negotiations ahead of Thursday’s scheduled hearing.
In the letter addressed to Sen. Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA), Ford’s legal team cited Sen. Majority Leader’s Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY) speech on the Senate floor on Monday afternoon as “flatly inconsistent” to Grassley’s promise of a “fair and credible process.”
“In our view, the hiring of an unnamed ‘experienced sex crimes prosecutor’ as Mr. Davis described in his email, is contrary to the Majority’s repeated emphasis on the need for the Senate and this Committee’s members to fulfill their constitutional obligations,” attorney Michael Bromwich wrote. “It is also inconsistent with your stated wish to avoid a ‘circus,’ as well as Dr. Blasey Ford’s repeated requests through counsel that senators conduct the questioning. This is not a criminal trial for which the involvement of an experienced sex crimes prosecutor would be appropriate.”

They should have been careful what they asked for...
What are they so afraid of? They have had plenty of time to rehearse her.

in many instances the RATS have successfully had the tail wag the dog.
they will continue to use the same playbook until the GOP all grow a pair and stops them.
This garbage is all a pretext for having her not show up. Hopefully the committee goes to a vote Friday after she does not show up Thursday. Hope she moved to New Zealand after that. She can take a row boat if she doesn’t want to fly.
Even Mr Magoo saw this one coming.
So predictable, these leftists are.
They want semi-senile old white bumbling men asking the questions
instead of young fast thinking women
Put the brakes on this farce. Vote already.
SO MANY PERJURY TRAPS await the “shy” Dr Ford. When will her attorney announce she will not testify UNDER OATH?
Where is Gloria Allred? Is she sitting this one out?

Agree. She’s a no show. I’ve said that from the beginning.
I think its still hurricane season in the Pacific. :)
Uh, shell turn back to Cali around OKC due to the committee not jailing Kavanaugh.
Gloria AllRed’s male alter ego, Creepy Avanti, has taken over.
Snowflaking ain’t easy with this Ford lady.
Wouldn’t it be to her advantage to have a sex crimes prosecutor ask the questions? The prosecutor is skilled at getting the sex perp guilty, right? If I had $, I would bet she’s a no show.
Liars like Ford and Feinstein can all go to hell.
Uh, that would only be a story since she probably hasn’t left Cali in the first place. DOH!
