      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 don't even want to TRY to poke holes in her polygraph. Because they know it was done legitimately. They don't even want to TRY to poke holes in her memory gap, to experts, because they know they'd look like schmucks. This isn't a search for truth. It's a sham.

          Add to that the unnamed "sex crimes prosecutor" the gop has hired to question Dr. Blasey-Ford and the sham intensifies, and their cowardice shows more.

          I suspect that the GOP is acting ultra vires in hiring outside counsel. What rule are they relying on in order to do so?

          Show me the part that says you can’t. You see freedom is when the govt tells you what you CAN’T do. When the govt tells you what you CAN do, that is not a free country. Lucky for your pink lady parts hat and safe space, this is still a free country.

          Not turning into a trial? Then why did you hire a female prosecutor to ask her questions?

          Unfortunately with the introduction of the female lawyer asking the questions, Cronyn and his cronies are not discharging their constitutional responsibility. No advise and consent just hiding behind a staff attorney.

          They are not. They already said as much. She would have at the very least filed a police report. They even offered to investigate if she did. She did not. Because she does not want to go to prison for a false report.
