White House Open to Testimony from Second Accuser

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said the White House “is open to the idea of a second accuser of Judge Brett Kavanaugh testifying at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing scheduled for Thursday,” the Washington Post reports.

“The committee currently plans to hear testimony from Christine Blasey Ford, the California professor who has accused President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee of sexually assaulting her when they were high school students.”

“It remains unclear whether Ramirez will testify and how quickly that could occur. Several Republicans on the committee have said they want to vote on Kavanaugh’s nomination shortly after the Thursday hearing.”
