Oh the new one well bring out the dogs. Mush dogs barking the old ones just fine well do anything, seriously anything, to help our customers. Thanks. Ally. Do it right. Tonight, they prepare to go before congress and the country. No matter what happens this moment will change our nations politics. Later on, roz roderosenstein. Was he being sarcastic. First, negotiation after negotiation. Shifting the Judiciary Committee on thursday at 10 00 a. M. I, of course, will be there too. Some of the details about this hearing have been worked out. The hearing will be open and dr. Ford will testify first. Democratic senators will ask questions. But important factors are so far unresolved. Like how much time will be allowed for those questions. And then theres the matter of whether republican senators themselves or perhaps their staffers or an outside counsel will do the questioning. This is important in part because all the republicans on the committee are men. At the same time, judge kavanaugh
truth of any of these allegations. they simply surface them to be reviewed by the committee. what might have happened is that letter a couple months ago was shared with the fbi. the fbi might have sent out interviewers to interview dr. ford and the other people at the party who have given a statement to the fbi which the judiciary committee would have considered. it doesn t add anything at this point when the committee is talking to those people. let me get your take on this because it would add something because as you rightfully point out, this is not a criminal proceeding. this is a political proceeding and what judge kavanaugh has to do is convince enough senators these allegations are false and should vote for him. so i ve been struggling with this. i feel like the only real way for him to plausibly do this and it s a very difficult path is to say open my book up again. bring in the fbi. call mark judge. have him appear as a witness. bring in these yale classmates. have them sit
forward now if this happened. during this conif terrible fbi review that happens with every nomination where they go and talk to dozens of dozens of people that knew you for your entire life, schools, jobs, ex lovers and disgruntled business partners, often something surfaces and it s surprising that apparently no whisper of this surfaces from i heard this at yale and somebody said that. right. so not women need to come forward but that was never heard in circles. interesting. we ll take a break but when we come back, steve kornacki will have his confirmation to help propel a generation of women in congress. one more thing, never again when a woman comes forward to tell her story to a committee of the united states senate will she ever be assaulted for telling the truth.
not the process is completely broken. there has been a question about the way the judiciary committee conducted its business. in someways they have kind of reduced this to he said, she said by not in someways reopening the fbi background. it s important they corroborated the story of dr. blasey ford to get folks there and give a better sense to call witnesses to get a better sense of what happened so we can get to the truth. that s what it means to take seriously the claim, not to say women should be believed because they are women but take seriously the claim she was sexual assaulted means to investigate it with some integrity. so here we have now, not only the issue around the freshman year at yale with debra ramirez and what michael avenatti is saying, they have to pump the brakes and if they don t, it raises serious alarms. i m interested to see how people will react if they continue to
