Alex Jones and his merry crew over at Inforwars, has the answers to all this. According to them.....Ford isn't really a psychologist, and has ties to the CIA. She is described as a "CIA Honeytrap", serving the Deep State

CNN: Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), considered another swing vote, said in an interview that she supports Flake’s call for a delay. Mitch McConnell would simply love to ignore this and just ram through a floor vote....but between this and calls from all points of the compass, for an investigation....things are getting pretty awkward.

If anything at all, comes up an investigation, or further revelations made public.......Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski may pull the plug, in the floor vote.

....to allow for an FBI investigation.

Just in from the Hill.... 1:30 deadline passes with no vote and plenty of confusion 1:37 p.m. The 1:30 p.m. deadline for having a vote on Kavanaugh has come and gone without an explanation from Grassley. Flake, who announced this morning he would vote for the nominee but also expressed doubt about what to make of Kavanaugh’s testimony Thursday, has been missing from the hearing room for a while, prompting speculation he may have changed his mind or may want a delay before a panel vote. Flake emerged briefly from the anteroom and asked Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), the ranking Democrat on the committee to follow him back inside for a private discussion. He had a deeply concerned expression on his face. Flake was confronted by protesters this morning after announcing his support for Kavanaugh. Flake said he felt compelled to support Kavanaugh in the absence of corroborating evidence backing up Ford’s claim that he committed a sexual assault in the early 1980s. Republicans have filed back and forth to the committee's anteroom and there have have been intense whispered conversations among members the past 40 minutes.

Yesterday afternoon: Kavanaugh: Graham: Cited a letter from the American Bar Association. The organization had given Kavanaugh its highest rating going into his confirmation process, and Graham held this up as proof of his great character Last nite: The American Bar Association late Thursday urged the Senate Judiciary Committee to delay the vote to confirm Supreme Court Nominee Brett Kavanaugh pending a full FBI investigation, according to multiple reports. In a letter addressed to Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley and ranking Democrat Dianne Feinstein, the organization requested the committee hold off on voting until allegations made by Dr. Christine Blasey Ford and others can be fully vetted by the FBI. “We make this request because of the ABA’s respect for the rule of law and due process under law,” the letter read. “The basic principles that underscore the Senate’s constitutional duty of advice and consent on federal judicial nominees require nothing less than a careful examination of the accusations and facts by the FBI.” Rule of law? Ethical standards? Due process? This is the Trump spittle licking Senate, we are talking about. Anybody think they are interested in any of that stuff?

Still watching this crap. So the new criteria for the comportment of Supreme Courts Judges is.......whining, crying, anger, aggression and bellowing out conspiracy theories. Only in Trump Land. The contrast with Professor Ford's testimony is glaring, indeed.....

Impartial? This guy came though the Republican internal vetting.... because he was seen as the most likely candidate to uphold the concept of Executive Privilege, in the high court, where and when required. That got him the green light from Trump.

The Republican white men on the Judiciary committee are too cowardly to question an assault victim....... but they're now chomping at the bit, to throw softball questions at the accused Republican white guy. Great optics.....

Well, you could end up taking it all the way to the Supreme Court, where he can then rule against it........

Coming in the wake of their refusal to have any real investigation of anything.......today, Graham and Grassley look (and sound) like absolute caricatures, at this point.

With my crystal ball.......no matter what Kavanaugh says this afternoon, or how he comes across..... You are going to get a lot of "Facts vs Emotion" from the Republicans.. Just a hunch...
