Senate Republicans Stick with Thursday Kavanaugh Committee Vote
« on: September 17, 2018, 09:31:43 pm »
The Senate Judiciary Committee will proceed to a planned vote on Supreme Court Nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh Thursday, sources tell Breitbart News Monday.

Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) is, according to these sources, refusing to yield to pressure over allegations of a high school attack revealed by Democrats over the weekend. Since July, Ranking Member Diane Feinstein (D-CA) had possession of a letter from California professor Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, claiming that Kavanaugh and another teenager had forced her into a room at a 1982 party where Kavanaugh forced himself on her before she escaped.

Feinstein declined to introduce the letter at any point before or during the four-day public hearings on Kavanaugh’s nomination, but went public after media reports of the letter began to surface.

Two sources close to the confirmation process, however, told Breitbart News that Republicans will not yield to that pressure. One claimed the Thursday vote would occur “no matter what.” The other confirmed that Chairman Grassley remains “completely committed” to the originally scheduled Thursday vote.

Both sources also indicated Judge Kavanaugh will speak on a conference call with the Senate Judiciary Committee Monday night, where he will directly address Ford’s accusations. He has already twice categorically denied he attacked Ford and reports indicate he told Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) Monday that he was not at the party in question

Hey, maybe the Pubs got a backbone!

This whole thing has stunk from the beginning.

I think they are trying to finesse this by saying the accuser must have him confused with someone else because Kavanaugh and his friend were never at the party in question. It's probably a better approach than I would take since we live in a world where you can't attack a lying leftist woman directly.

They better.

All of this will go ahead and take place as it was.

The Dems are simply laying the foundation of what will happen when Ginsburg croaks.

Trumpbart rarely gets anything right.  I'll check back Thursday. 

I think Kavanaugh will make a fine SCOTUS judge, and I am skeptical of the last minute allegations, but I think it would be politically smart to delay the vote for a few days...if only to pretend to consider the allegations, and defuse some of the rat butthurt over Garland.  However, if Grassley and McConnell are confident in the votes of Flake, Corker, and Collins then proceed and let the chips fall.

Oh, no.  So disappointed they caved on this.  I was beginning to think they might have a backbone.

It's actually the best way, as her memory is so clouded on the details that the proper response is 'are you even sure it was me, because I sure don't remember?'

I, too, hope the Grassley and the rest don't cave.

Prediction:
If the Republicans stand firm, and Kavanaugh is confirmed by the Senate, this woman and her "charges" will disappear, never to be heard from again...

Addendum:
Well, how do ya do?
I should have know better!

Probably so. But if it was me, I wouldn't stop until she, her lawyer, and Di Fi were broke in every possible way.

I guess we'll find out, since Grassley caved and scheduled a hearing for next Monday, and that means another week delay, successfully delaying the confirmation beyond the start of the SCOTUS session, Oct 1.

I think she'll be ripped to shreds, but DiFi doesn't care, she got the delay she and Schumer have worked so hard for.  Pubbies lose again.

He caved because the usual suspects, Flake, Collins and Murk announced if he didn't schedule a new hearing, they were "No" votes.  Lame-Duck Flake is on the committee, so a vote Thursday would have failed.  Thanks a bunch, Traitor.

Yep. Important point there. Grassley didn't cave. That job was already done for him, and he was thrown into the vise with no leverage.

You're right.  Where you gonna go?  To the tribe you were hoping your tribe would fight?  That's crazy talk. 

I'm kidding.  I actually think somebody took the time to ask Kavanaugh what he wanted and he said "Bring it."  I'll be surprised if that isn't leaked in anger eventually.
