Grassley Announces Monday Vote on Kavanaugh After Rejecting Further Talks With Ford
New York Magazine ^ | Sept 21 2018 | Ed Kilgore

Posted on 09/21/2018 8:09:01 PM PDT by Hadean

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley appears to have ended the halting talks with Dr. Christine Blasey Ford about testifying next week about her allegations of sexual assault against Brett Kavanaugh. After setting a sudden 10:00 PM deadline for agreement with his terms and rejecting further talks with Ford or her lawyers, Grassley has reportedly scheduled a Committee vote on the confirmation for Monday.

Grassley just tweeted giving her another 24 hours

FFS!

Does anyone know the truth of what's happening with this cockamamie circus?

The news keeps changing minute by minute!

That was the initial report on Fox. Now it seems he DIDN’T put a deadline on it just saying he granted her another extension to make up her mind.

Grassley could still move the hearing, right? This might just be a formality

Nope. It's done. The lying whore is out of the picture and the deed that never happened is just a figment of Ford psychosis.

I hope people have enough smarts to understand what is going on.

Grassley is done with it and knows exactly what the libtards are doing.

He did his level best to hear this crazy thing out.

She gets her payday and it goes away.

No worries. It is all falling apart for the left.

It was meant to be a meme of GOP HATES WOMEN.

They picked a nut.

I'll feel a lot more confident about that when:

1. Kavanaugh is confirmed and seated on the court.
2. The Mueller witch hunt has ended with a whimper.
3. A Special Counsel is appointed to investigate Hillary and the attempted Deep State coup.
4. Dems remain in the minority after the 2018 midterms, and
5. A strict constitutionalist is confirmed as RBG's replacement.

Other than that, I've got no worries ;-)

Not one interviewer will ask if she has anything to back up her accusation.

We can't. The left never rests, and they're attacking us on multiple fronts, simultaneously.

It's basically war.

It’s still one day at a time. By that I mean everyday watch where the media goes and understand.

The communists are attacking on every front.

The President knows this. We must vote even more than 2016.

They were so close.

She doesn’t remember what year, nor where?

Math isn't her strong suit either, she sad she was 15 so how hard could it be?

I should have been specific

Yes Thomas was sent to floor without neutral or negative or positive referral

The committee chair asked for a floor vote without the committee first voting

Grassley and Mitch can do thst if they have 50 votes

Pence can tie break

And three of four times that a nominee has gotten a floor vote with no vote from the judiciary committee first that nominee was confirmed

And yes that’s Clarence

Kavanaugh can only spare one GOP SENATOR. And still get confirmed

Flake

Corker

The Estrogen Twins who vote alike....Collins and Murkowski
