    Christine Blasey Ford's attorneys have asked the Senate Judiciary Committee to allow for two trauma experts and the person who administered her polygraph to testify. Republican senators say that's not going to happen.

        Asked about that demand, Sen. John Cornyn, majority whip told me: "We are discharging our constitutional responsibility. No witness has a right to commandeer the process." He said "no" it wouldn't be helpful to have them testify, saying they are giving Ford her chance to speak

        Sen. Lindsey Graham said this when asked about trauma experts and the polygraph administrator testifying: "We're not turning this into a trial. If they wanted all this, they should have told us in July about this. So I got zero patience with their demands."

        They are rushing this through because they know they will lose in November. They will lose if he is confirmed or if he is not confirmed.

        I feel really strongly that it’s more than that! The SC reconvenes Oct. 1, the first case before them has serious implications for Mueller invest. pardon power and double jeopardy. Fed charges and State charges for crimes. Gamble vs US

        I'm petrified that we won't take the house because of so many hackable voting machines. I'm concerned about vote manipulation and voter suppression. The Blue wave is clearly there but the GOP have done nothing to secure the election and I know that's on purpose.

        If history repeats and they are able to cheat their way in again- it will incite civil disobedience. Enough is enough ... we’re not allowing our democracy to morph into a dictatorship or oligarchy. #BlueWave

        And yet.... Republicans are bringing in a lawyer to interrogate Dr Blasey Ford because that’s how we have always done things here at the Senate Judiciary Committee during SCOTUS nominee hearings <checks watch> for at least 10 minutes anyhow.

        And yet.... democrats are smearing and destroying a potentially innocent man. The presumption of innocence has gone by the wayside because that’s the way we have always done things here in America <checks iPhone> for at least the last week or so any how.

        It’s time for Dr Ford, her attorneys & experts to give a press conference. It’s the only way their side will get heard since Republicans refuse to allow witnesses, which is more proof that they don’t want the truth. They just want to say they had a hearing.

        If Republicans want the truth (as they claim) call witnesses. Why wouldn’t an innocent person want to call the 1 person who was supposedly in the room & says you’re innocent? Why would you talk to Fox but not the FBI?

        What do they hope to accomplish with this bullying behavior? We have zero patience for condescension and obstruction. Treating Dr. Ford with respect should be an accomplishable task.

        Bullying? They aren't bullying her. They gave her multiple options for testifying. She said no. They found a sex abuse expert to question her to be impartial. She said no.

        They? ONLY GOP even know the name of their hired gun. What are y’all so afraid of that you can’t even say the name of your “impartial” totally w/out precedence outside hired gun?
