        This is big. Flake to @burgessev: Until he learns more about the sexual assault allegation, Flake is “not comfortable voting yes” on Kavanaugh’s nomination. “We need to hear from her. And I don’t think I’m alone in this.” https://www.politico.com/story/2018/09/16/kavanaugh-allegation-anonymous-republicans-825855 …

        I hope she tells them that she has two hours free on the first Tuesday in October, and that surely they can wait until then.

        Isn't it already well-established that having an abuse victim confront her abuser is extremely harmful to her? Worse with this particular audience. I do not expect Grassley or his ilk to be particularly sensitive, as evidenced by the fact that he's pursuing this to begin with

        Calls are not enough, Chuck. What is needed from Kavanaugh is testimony under oath in which he provides detailed and complete answers to everything in Prof. Ford's letter.
