Grassley Sets New Deadline for Kavanaugh Accuser

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles Grassley (R-IA) said that he “absolutely must hear by 2:30 p.m.” today if Dr. Christine Blasey Ford has agreed to their terms for testifying against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, the New York Times reports.

“It was not clear precisely what those terms were.”

“The late-night missives were the latest twist in a legal tango that has riveted Washington, with a lifetime appointment to the nation’s highest court hanging in the balance.”
