      12 minutes in Grassley is still making excuses for himself. So the hearing for Kavanaugh to claim it wasn't his fault starts with a man making an extended claim it's not his fault.

      Grassley accuses Dems of grandstanding in prior questioning. Remember: Judge Kavanaugh thought it very important that Bill Clinton be asked if he had ejaculated in Monica's mouth.

      Grassley claims neither Swetnick nor Ramirez provided evidence. I think Ramirez' lawyer just released information to the effect. Anyway, Grassley claims the committee was stonewalled.

      Here's the refutation of Grassley's claims about Ramirez refusing to cooperate with SJC investigation.https://twitter.com/RonanFarrow/status/1045120528711909376 …

      Ramirez’s lawyers made their letters to the FBI and Senate public. “She...repeatedly has asked the Committee to speak with her about a process by which she can be heard by Committee members. But the majority staff thus far has refused even to speak with Ms. Ramirez’s counsel”: pic.twitter.com/72mHfy4iI0

      Feinstein providing Kavanaugh a way out by describing every who attests that Kavanaugh was a heavy drinker who might not remember these events. Kavanaugh will respond by saying "twilight zone" over and over.

      Grassley gives up the game: "I'm sorry you brought up the unsubstantiated allegations of other people because we're here to listen to Dr Ford" we'll deal with the other allegations at another time

      Ford: I think after reading my opening statement I anticipate needing some caffeine, if that's available.

          Ford, presumably, is on PT, so this is a 7AM hearing for her.

          Mitchell starts by asking Ford to verify each statement she's made. She's taking notes in margin of her letter to Feinstein with a pencil.
