Washington (CNN)The Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Thursday where Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and the woman accusing him of sexual assault are set to testify about her allegation will see both witnesses face five minutes of questioning from each senator on the panel, or a lawyer if senators choose to yield their time.

The way the hearing will unfurl was revealed Tuesday after CNN obtained details of the format for the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, in which both Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford will testify publicly. A source familiar with the matter provided the following details to CNN after notices were sent to Kavanaugh's and Ford's legal teams.

Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley will make an opening statement with no time limit, followed by an opening statement from the top Democrat on the committee, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who also will not have a time limit.

Ford, who alleges when she and Kavanaugh were in high school he pinned her down at a party and covered her mouth while trying to remove her clothing, will then be sworn in and give an opening statement. Kavanaugh has denied the allegation.

I bet the Democrats will let hundreds of SJW crazies into the hearing room and total chaos will break out.

I just hope the Republicans have multiple camera crews stationed to record it all for campaign commercials.

[TigersEye]

It will look like a Democrat smear machine generating red waves culminating in a red tsunami in November.

***************************************************

She’s with Obama’s school records and his IQ test results.

[mdittmar]

Why not,according to CNN all she has to do is be sworn in.

[Pollard]

YUP, her usefulness has expired. I imagine she’ll take a sabbatical from her current position at the University and get some kind of work for some Leftist org until she’s no longer in the minds of people and then she’ll go back and will be forever known as a bit of a hero or martyr among leftists.

[Jane Long]

That’s what I’m thinking. The $irass funded lefty unhinged groups will be going all out.

Hope the Capitol Police will keep them out.

Sen Cruz can vouch for how crazy and dangerous they are.

[Kevin in California]

She's gonna be a little late.

[Jane Long]

Ah! Safely hidden under lock and key. Or, destroyed 😱

[allendale]

Very much doubt she if rational will go under oath and make specific accusations against Kavanaugh. Also doubt that her leftist lawyer is advising her about the consequences of perjury. Then again she just might be a feminist suicide bomber willing to do and say anything to take out Kavanaugh. Sure she has been coached, rehearsed, promised huge riches and protection to go ahead with the “mission”.

Ford's opening statement has no time limit per reputable source.
Funny CNN doesn't mention that.
