It still looks like Brett Kavanaugh's accuser Christine Blasey Ford will not show up for a hearing set for Monday, which has caused some mayhem at Capitol Hill. The decision to not show up has caused the teetering Republicans to push for a confirmation vote if nothing happens on Monday. To make matters worse, Feinstein won't give the Republicans the letter that contains the accusations of sexual assault against Kavanaugh. Does this mean that no one else has actually seen the letter? Just Feinstein? How does she expect Ford to get a proper hearing on Monday if everyone else lacks all the tools?

Christine Blasey Ford, the woman who accused Brett Kavanaugh of attempting to rape her in high school, said she wanted to testify in front of the Senate. The Republicans immediately made it known they wanted to hear from her. After all, these are serious accusations and she, along with all victims, deserve to be heard. But Ford has not accepted the invite and now wants an FBI investigation before she testifies. Sen. Chuck Grassley said that if she doesn't show up on Monday, the Senate will move on and schedule a confirmation vote for Kavanaugh.

Hopefully today is a little calmer than yesterday when it comes to Supreme Court nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh. We learned Monday evening that the Senate postponed his confirmation vote and scheduled a hearing on Monday with him and the woman who has accused him of sexual assault. Except she hasn't accepted the invitation yet. Once again, if you come across anything, please leave it in the comment section.

I told you Friday night that the attempt to derail Brett Kavanaugh's nomination with a post-hearing accusation was not over. I expected a cameo appearance by Gloria Allred at a press conference this week with the accuser, but it didn't take that long and it wasn't Allred.

Senate Democrats have redefined "absurdity" since the confirmation hearings for Judge Kavanaugh began ten days ago. With every single antic squashed and mocked, Sen. Feinstein released a super secret letter to the FBI, a letter alleging that 30 some odd years ago, Kavanaugh sexually assaulted a woman.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, has a private letter about Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, but refuses to share it. She sent it to the FBI for investigation.

Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) is a notorious moderate in the upper chamber and one not scared to go against the Republican Party. This is why people have been pushing her to vote against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, but some have gone too far. Some people have threatened and wished rape upon her female staff members while others have raised money to defeat her if she doesn't vote against Kavanaugh. Collins claims that is bribery and she may be correct.

California Senator and likely presidential candidate Kamala Harris spread a misleadingly edited video of Brett Kavanaugh's hearing testimony, falsely claiming Kavanaugh views birth control as the equivalent of abortion. From that, the argument goes, if Kavanaugh voted against Roe v. Wade, birth control would be banned.

Political rule number 1: Don’t take a selfie with Bozo the Clown. Your opponents will use it forever in political ads. Political rule number 2: Don’t call yourself Spartacus. You will be ridiculed today, tomorrow, and forever.

Like a drowning person, the opponents of Brett Kavanaugh are desperately trying to grab onto anything. Having failed to rattle Kavanaugh, either through questioning by Democrat Senators or shouting by alt-left protesters in the hearing room, Democrats have taken to bold-faced lies, like that peddled by Kamala Harris about contraceptives. And bizarre presidential campaign posturing, like Cory Booker
