      Ahead of the Senate Judiciary Committee's 10 p.m. ET deadline, attorneys for Christine Blasey Ford, the woman who accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault, are asking for another day to decide whether she will testify.

      Her attorney writes: "The imposition of aggressive and artificial deadlines ... has created tremendous and unwarranted anxiety and stress on Dr. Ford. Your cavalier treatment of a sexual assault survivor who has been doing her best to cooperate ... is completely inappropriate."

      Earlier this evening, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley said that if Ford didn't respond by 10 p.m. ET, a vote on Kavanaugh's nomination would be scheduled for Monday.https://www.npr.org/2018/09/21/650420661/trump-attacks-kavanaugh-accuser-by-name-amid-negotiations-for-hearing?utm_source=twitter.com&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=npr&utm_term=nprnews&utm_content=20180921 …

          Senators like Grassley who have shown strong bias against women abused by men should have to recuse themselves from vote. They are not qualified to evaluate significance of wrongful acts they don’t believe are wrong. GOP delegitimizing every US institution including SCOTUS.pic.twitter.com/4tg2eqdT8h

          I don't think the Republicans could be handling this any worse. Anything short of a full hearing lacks any credibility and is a taint on Kavanaugh's appointment. They're not even pretending this is anything more than a pretense. Why even bother?

          The committee has already made several extensions. She wrote several letters to politicians and newspapers to express her claims. She is being advised by multi-million dollar Leftist legal teams. Why is she hesitant to repeat her claims UNDER OATH? #NoEvidence at all!

          "You won't let her testify! You're bullies!" [Committee grants several extensions and delays to allow ample time to testify.] "You want her to testify! You're bullies!" We get it, identity politics, Leftist secular religion, self-chanting, circular logic. We get it.

          I was unaware I said this mr straw man. Thanks for playing the identity politics game by propagating identity politics, while making the charge against me. Pretty neat trick.

          I know it gets hard when your attention span or memory does not extend past the last 12 hours of the news cycle, but sit back and let me tell you a story. Way back, four whole days ago, the Left was strongly demanding that Ford be allowed to testify.

          I was never a big @ChuckGrassley fan but this is beyond disgraceful. Your legacy will be bullying a sexual assault survivor publicly for political gain.

          funny you would say that as the Dems have used her for the same reason.

          “The Dems” simply said the chair should respect her and do due dilligence, and she (via her lawyer) has said she wants them at the table (something Grassley doesn’t because he wants to move forward no matter what). No one is to blame for his behavior but him.
