Get the pink pussy hats!

I think the repubs will try to rush it through and confirm him without hearing her side.

herself and her family alive and well. The Republicans will look like shit.

They don't care, and they will have the vote without an investigation. Its how they roll.

Fight to have the hearing delayed or GTFO.

Flake said that he wouldn’t vote to send the nominee out of committee if she wasn’t given a chance to testify... but today he said that Monday is that chance and he would vote yes again if she didn’t show up.

Collins made similar stataements that Ford should be given a chance to tell her story, but that it shouldn’t be an excuse to significantly extend the calendar.

Per Lindsay Graham, if she doesn't show up Monday, then they vote on Wednesday.

confirm Kavanaugh.

have to move forward with the voting.

They won’t at least pretend to be carefully considering the issue. Public perceptions matter- and women have never mattered more to the GOP. They’re losing their support by the day, and ramming this through will not help. A lot could happen.

in hiding...what would you do? "Sure, I am on my way?!"

This is no political angle here...it is a matter of life and death and not wanting to be a target anymore. Not again.

Why are Republicans so scared of a full investigation by the FBI? Or DOJ? Or the DA?

republicans will vote kavanaugh in

If it looks like steamrolling, the damage to Republicans in the mid term will be exponentially worse.

up because it isn't true.

It will be up to the Democrats to refute that, but more important to make a point of the fact that the republicans do NOT want an investigation of the facts.

The vote will come down to this. Those in Congress who believes there should be a non-partisan investigation on this, or not.

On Monday I suspect Kavanaugh will be confirmed, but there she be no doubt where the republicans stand on women

he said/she said, verdict to be passed by 11 Aging White Men without a clue about the psychology of sexual assault victims...

aren't these the same guys holding up the Violence Against Women Act?

calendar- I thought a week in advance.

they can schedule another vote. The GOP has been bleeding women’s support for the last year- they can’t afford to ignore this.

We all know that isn’t going to happen

In a few weeks we'll be onto something else. Topics in a Trump presidency have no staying power

They've been in their war room coming up with their messaging and talking points - they'll just unload it all, make her look uncredible and vote.

I just got told to basically shut up and get off DU for expressing the same belief on another thread.

We are only predicting what that dirty bunch of republicans will likely do. None of this about the truth or fairness with the republicans - it's optics to try and appease the viewing public. They want a confirmation and they want it before the mid terms in case they lose the senate. They don't have time to have hearings for another deplorable trump nominee.

I really think unless they are stopped in their tracks, they are going to keep on rolling and get him confirmed, and worry about any repercussions later. Their ultimate goal and Drumpf's is to get him on the court for the next 40 years. If the Democrats are to have any hope, they have to put a bullet through him. Unfortunately, I think pushing it further down the road is not something the repubs are going to deal very well with.

And after I was only to happy to sing DiFi's praises, I just saw on MSNBC that she is now saying she doesn't know if everything Dr. Ford is saying about KKKavanaugh is truthful. WTF?!?! Not helpful!!

Or, did I hear that wrong?

I did hear that Fienstein agrees with Dr. Ford's letter about doing and FBI investigation first. Whether she said what you thought she said or not, I don't know. I hope not!

That’s been her stance. Gotta love them trying to trash her for saying that.

then need to hand power over to a new generation who can get the job done!!!

This "new generation" has nothing to do with it.

threats.

don't want an unbias investigation, and this is the way republicans in Congress feel about women

into all incidents of KKKavanaugh's sexual misconduct.

minority party

Of course, Republicans will shit their pants over this.
