The Hill By Jordain Carney 9/20/2018

Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh says he plans to push ahead and appear at a Senate hearing set for Monday, despite lawyers for the woman accusing him of sexual assault saying she won't be there.

Kavanaugh sent a letter Thursday to Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, saying he wanted to attend the Monday hearing to "clear my name."

"Thank you for the invitation to appear before the Senate Committee on the Judiciary on Monday, September 24. I will be there. I look forward to the opportunity to testify before the Committee," Kavanaugh wrote.

Total hatchet job to me. You can virtually accuse anyone of anything. Even the Gipper was accused and since then, it really is just throwing mud, nothing less. Sometimes it happens I'm sure but I don't think that here and she has a lot of motivation.
