Senate Judiciary Committee Responds to Ford’s Demands ‘We Determine Which Witnesses to Call – This is Non-Negotiable’

As TGP’s Kristinn Taylor reported, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) has rescheduled the planned Monday hearing to Thursday to hear testimony from Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and Dr. Christine Blasey Ford.

Christine Ford has made an uncorroborated accusation that Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her decades ago at a drunken high school pool party that no one else, including the four people she claims were at the party, remembers.

The negotiations are ongoing as Christine Ford’s attorneys continue to make outrageous demands–Ford thinks she runs the Senate and determines which witnesses and how many witnesses to call forward to testify.

The Senate Judiciary Committee responded to Ford’s outrageous demands Sunday and said it is the Committee that decides which witnesses and how many witnesses to call forward.

Democrats know if they delay the Kavanaugh vote for another week he will not be confirmed before the next Supreme Court session.

Make no mistake about it. Democrats are using Christine Ford to prevent Trump from placing a justice on the Supreme Court.

As usual, the GOP shows how spineless they are by capitulating to the Democrats after they orchestrated an 11th hour “me too” ambush of Judge Kavanaugh.
