She says she will not testify until the fbi investigates claims. Her attorney saying her client wants to cooperate with the Senate Judiciary committee but the process must not be rushed. Its premature to talk about a hearing on monday. And i think people understand that because she has been dealing with the threats, the harassment, and safety of her family. Asking her to come forward in four or five days and sit before the Judiciary Committee on national tv is not a fair process. Fords request for delay seeming to shift the momentum among republicans. Judiciary chairman grassley saying in a statement that nothing the fbi does would have any bearing on what dr. Ford tells the committee. So there is no reason for any further delay. Even senator bob corker, a frequent trump critic, tweeted republicans extended a hand in good faith, if we dont hear from both sides on monday, lets vote. President trump so far maintaining that restraint. He has shown since the accusations against kavanaugh w
Appears to be very thorough. No word at this time from senator Lisa Murkowski. The Senate Judiciary committee saying there is nothing we didnt already know and no hint of misconduct.

There were leaks that rosenstein was going to resign during a meeting at the white house today. But multiple sources tell nbc news that rosenstein wouldnt go unless the president personally fired him. Which the president hasnt done. At least not yet. Of course this comes after that bombshell New York Times story claiming rosenstein suggested last year that he wear a wire in the oval office. A remark that sources tell nbc news was made sarcastically. And rosenstein has called the report factually incorrect. Still, there were reports that rosenstein was expecting to be fired. But here is what mr. Trump told reporters today right here in new york city. Are you going to fire Rod Rosenstein .

First from the fox news deck this wednesday afternoon, the battle for the Supreme Court. Today the white house is vigorously defending the president s latest comments about a woman who accused his Supreme Court nominee of Sexual Assault. That is after three republican senators who could be key to confirming Brett Kavanaugh slammed the president s statement. College professor Christine Blasey ford told the Senate Judiciary Committee Last week that kavanaugh pinned her to the bed and covered her mouth and tried to take off her clothes when they were at a party in high school. Judge kavanaugh said it never happened. Heres what the president said at a rally in north mississippi about dr. Fords testimony. How did he get he home . I dont remember. How did you get there .
