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 expect a huge circus. Democrats are going to fill the room with every mental misfit they can find.

...as well as with Barack Obamas’ actual Birth Certificate.

Ford will be a no show.

The rats on the committee will ask Kavanaugh questions like:

• How often did you rape little girls in HS?
• How many women have you smothered to death?
• Why do your daughters hate you?
• When did your wife file for divorce?
• Have you stopped beating your dog?
• Why can't you prove a negative? If you were innocent, you could.
• Why haven't you apologized for being a man or being white?
• Would you consent to trial by ordeal to prove your innocence?

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

If I were McConnell, I would let them in. Video of These screeching leftist hags are the best adverts to vote GOP that exist.

Grassley confirmed Tuesday in a statement that he has hired Rachel Mitchell, a career prosecutor with decades of experience prosecuting sex crimes, to question the witnesses. Mitchell will ask the questions for the GOP senators, while Democrats will do their own questioning.

So Democrats are going to be asking questions as well.

"What Thursday's hearing with Kavanaugh and Ford will look like"

[R_Kangel]

... My guess is that the Democrat/Socialist endgame is to create the perception of an environment created by the GOP Spawn of the Devil to force the Confirmation Vote without hearing any testimony from the victimized Ford who's entire future and life was destroyed by Kavenaugh

.... Thus suppressing the voice of a poor innocent traumatized victim that is now trying to save American and the Universe from the dark lords that raped her.

.... Then afterwards, they will set out to Protest and create Mayhem across the entire country by claiming that her voice is being silenced by the Trump Cult of Demonic Anti American Evil White Misogynous Males.

.... All because the virtuous paragon of angelic existence, that deity named Hillary Clinton lost the Presidential election.

It depends on how much Hillary has on her and if it’s worse than a federal perjury rap.

[tallyhoe]

It will look like chaos! Only because of the Democrats..

[Churchillspirit]

Sounds about right.

[precisionshootist]

She is not going to show. I hope the Republicans and BK made it clear the judge does not need to testify to anything or answer any questions if she does not show. Dont let the dems head fake BK into going first cause she is a no show then suddenly she shows up. If she does not show BK should not speak at all and its time to vote. However the Republicans are STUPID so expect her to not show then BK will answer all kinds of questions, no vote will happen and then a call will come in from Ford and she will say she will be there Monday to testify. you heard it here first.

[matthew fuller]

BINGO!

[The_Media_never_lie]

It will look like chaos! Only because of the Democrats..

It will be a bunch of yelling and screaming tribalists. A glimpse of what America will become if democrats maintain power for prolonged periods. People will start to understand this. They may not want to be governed by anarchists.

[Steely Tom]

Very much doubt she if rational will go under oath and make specific accusations against Kavanaughery much doubt she if rational will go under oath and make specific accusations against Kavanaugh.

Get real. Democrats have nothing to fear from being "under oath." They don't take any oath seriously. No one is going to prosecute her if she lies under oath to the Senate, or to anyone else. That stuff is for Republican witnesses to worry about.

[redangus]

Here’s a scary thought. Her usefulness to the Left is pretty much used up. She may be more good to them as a martyr to the cause than a live, but flawed witness. They’ve been harping a lot about death threats and her safety. How hard would it be to find one of the governments drugged up nuts to take her out leaving behind a fake FB page full of Trump and MAGA stuff.

Not predicting just questioning.

[cpdiii]

She won’t show.

Many have perjured themselves in front of Congress with impunity. The stakes on this testimony is high, very high. Perjury will result in prosecution.

You are correct, she will not testify.

She must also consider if the demonicrats do not take the House and Senate in November, President Trump will clean out the Justice Department and honest men will be in charge. She must weight her decisions very carefully.

The real hell of it is once her usefullness is over, Fienstein and Schumer will throw her under the bus. If she testifies and lies, she could easily go to jail.

[Soros Billions]

Don’t forget the combination of mind altering drugs to take the edge off.
