    GOP has hired a female lawyer to question Christine Ford but is declining to name her. Will she sit behind a partition so we can't see her? Seems silly not to ID her when she'll be at a hearing tmrw — also, amazing none of six GOP women sens are on Jud.https://www.politico.com/story/2018/09/25/white-house-lashes-out-feinstein-838942 …

        Given the state of things right now, with Kavanaugh's family getting death threats, hardly seems silly to maintain her anonymity as long as feasible.

        If that were a concern for this person she certainly didn’t have to take the job. The public deserves the absolute right to know who is working for Congress

        Wrong. Senators should ad their own damn questions. Only cowards defend this blatantly sexist political charade. Senators fear America will sense the denial and scorn in their own voices/questions. They are hiding. Defend that at your peril.

        Declining to name her seems kinda crazy. Are they going to do a big reveal? "Are you ready to see the female attorney who is going to question you?" Heck, maybe it's Victoria Toensing

        Won't name her? Absurd. We are going to take your testimony but we won't tell you who will be asking the questions so you won't be able to check her background for her bona fides and any other pertinent info. I'd never let a client get deposed be an unnamed person. Absurd.

        I am praying Dr. Fords attorney advise her NOT to answer any questions from outside counsel! Over half of the senators on the Judiciary committee hold law degrees! It is a scare and gotcha tactic! @SenateDems @SenateGOP @SenKamalaHarris @MSNBC #ProtectDrFord @womensmarch

        Correct! This isn’t a trial, but they use outside counsel, but don’t subpoena Mark Judge & others! I’ve seen this tactic before! This is a bully way of getting what you want & doing it under any means necessary! Kavanaugh is a hot ticket item for the @GOP!

        Yep! It astounds me how many people out there are ignorant to the distinctions between a criminal trial and an appointment hearing. "The FBI does not investigate local crimes & has alrdy done 6 background checks" #RabidGOP

        What a pack of squeamish old men. They don't even have the cojones to look at her and hear her story, but try to disguise it as being done "out of respect for her". They embody everything that is wrong with our country that's in control of aging old white privilege. November 6th.

        Oh yeah. I'm a retired lawyer married to a still-practicing litigator who represented the TN plaintiffs in Obergefell v Hodges, & this is one of our all-time favorite films. Heartbreaking AND accurate.

        I was a 20 year-old young Houston TX Republican when I saw it in ‘93 and it moved me to support gay rights and started my journey to the Democratic Party.
