Senate Democrats are not expected to consolidate their time at today's hearing -– meaning no one is giving up their allotted time to ask questions in order to give longer time to one or two. But they are coordinating their questioning, CNN has learned.

Accusations over accusations ! On what side the right might be ?

Dramatic scripted testimony . CNN you would do yourself a great service by not printing another word on this subject

He did. I'll put it like this if he didn't she was a lot more convincing than he was. You know if he had to inject the Clintons he was struggling to come up with something. That always works for the GOP though!!

Is he crying for himself or his job...

Good liar .

And the Academy goes to. I'm going to puke.

He has a tick Listen and watch. Profilers watch.

who is the blinking machine over his shoulder? She isn't going to make it lol

Oh lawd! Now he brings up his kids... obvious .. guilty

Here they come the tears 😭

I freakin knew it!

sounds like a guilty man yelling

Que the tears

If seated how will he ever be able to be an impartial judge in left/right disputes? He’s so angry at “the left!”

Uh oh, 'one of my best friends is a sexual assault victim'!!!! This is beyond desperation!!!

KTLA Still NO evidence, witnesses, place or time period, just her word that it happened. I don’t doubt that she was sexually assaulted, just not by Kavaunaugh

Watching my home boy Brett Kavanaugh kick some major ass right now.

Scary Judge. Could have used a bit of coaching.

Lmao, Kavanaugh so unhinged sounds like he’s doing a WWE promo

USA FEDERAL JUDGE FEDERAL COURT JUDGE MUST SHUT DOWN GOPs TO NOVEMBER ALLECSHEN FOR NEW SENATE ALLECSHEN

Listening to Kavanaugh and I don't buy it!!

Kavanaugh is only spouting anger... Too bad for him...

Dramatic? I guess lying thru your teeth is now considered dramatic.

He's dead in the water. Attacking Dr. Ford and using Trump as his pillar of truth just sunk him.

He should have just stayed home and not go through all this embarrassment

Thats one lengthy denial.

BrettKavanaughIsARapist and is using the Democrats as a deflection tactics. KavanaughHearings

He’s aged much better than Ford. Can we all agree on that?

OMG!!! He is very angry and will not take any responsibility... this is shameful

KavanaughYelling is more like it.

He's already coming off as very angry and partisan. He's not fit to be an objective and impartial judge. Good luck America. Lol

Listen to him ppl he's showing his true colors now Is this really who you want as a Judge!!hes unhinged

Talking about penned up anger, you are showing it right now

Get them Brett!

Lies

Angry liars don’t impress me.

He's screwed already. Phoney doesn't cover it. Guilty as f***.

Merrick Garland!!!!

Kamala Harris is an expert at lying, Democrats never on trial I wonder if she was her mentor. Where is the other bay area Democrat Gavin Newsom. He entered rehab 🙄 after getting caught with his pants down while having affair with his best friends wife.

“I demanded a hearing” Why not demand a FBI investigation. Afraid of a criminal charge? Why not demand a polygraph? Mr Kavanagh, you probably will get the Supreme Court seat, responsible for sexual assault cases and decisions, and God help you with your conscience.

Watching Kav make his statement...his anger n bullying tone clearly verifies that he is Douchebag in Chief realDonaldTrump candidate. A great fit for the GOP ...also love the look on his wife’s face - shereally wants to be there

You are not a victim Judge Kavanaugh

I object your honor...that's a leading statement by the press.

Why didn’t she come forward much sooner? It seems she’s coming forward now, only because it is convenient. If it was that serious, she should have said it much sooner. Or she may be lying and is paid off by Trump haters. 🤔

He came in like I am about to kill these dems. He trying to act his part per trump.

So here is the TAX TEST every American home owner should take to see the truth. Look at the bottom line of your Schedule A 2017 form. If greater than $24K, you are paying MORE taxes in 2018 under GOP tax plan Period. FoxNews

Very aggressive, I don't believe him, he's scary

He's such a drama queen. 🙄

Yelling doesn't make you innocent... KavanaughHearings

When a person doesn't blink they are hiding something.

Screaming is not helping your case.

He is on fire. Ford is obviously lying.

I'm watching Kavanaugh right now. Why is he screaming?

Judge speaking blah blah blah!

Dramatic is correct fake as hell but that woman is so fake biggest liar I've seen almost this year. I mean trust me I was laughing at her in her first 12 words told her psychiatrist 4 boys what do you wear a bathing suit to a party for when you just clubhouse

This is already starting off wrong by Kavanaugh

Why though?

I hope she can proof he was at that party...

Starting off by yelling his testimony is not effective

He is pissed and I can't blame him!

Oh, what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive.

This guy is coming off like they feed him a couple of cocktails before he came in lol.

Haha This is a judge speaking that’s all he’s a liar just like Trump a clone of Trump!

Ford can't remember if she got a letter from Feinstein on August 31, without checking her notes or lawyers.

Where was this compassion when she kept an innocent man in prison for two years after a federal judge ordered him released?

Hilarious! Her FRIENDS DONT EVEN BELIEVE HER!!!!! Go back to affairs with Willie Brown KillerKamala KamalaHarris !!!!!!!

THE PAYOFF.

Believe Keith Ellison too Kamala?

Harris pretty much said nothing other that believe someone that presents no tangible evidence with a very shaky memory

KamalaHarris IS A ROCK STAR!!

Maybe something happened, maybe it didn't. There will always be a she said/he said issue here. In March 2012 The New Yorker did a hit piece on Kavanaugh. Catalyst? I found many things weird. She did not know what exculpatory means. A professor?

He said. She said. 3 witnesses said it didn't happen. She is a liar.

Only brain-deal zombies will side with the psycho here. She is creating obfuscation to prevent the Judge from taking the designated Office. This is akin to waging an ideological war on the State.

Of course she believes her.She could of stated that a UFO took her to the party and brought her home and the Dems would believe her without question because women didn't lie.

SenKamalaHarris is running for the Presidency. She would bel a dog if that dog could give her a vote!

Chris Ford WILL BE THROWN UNDER The BUS As Soon as The Democratic Party Is Finished With Her!

Vote republican!!!

This woman kept on with her monologue instead of interviwing Ford!

Such a fraud. Actuallly TWO fraudulent women. So disgusted.

Of course she believes her , she’d believe anybody if it gets Kavenaugh off the courts and hurts Trump !!

and also thank her for the 2020 auditioning stage for you and your colleagues

She is a con artist politician

Nope I question her truthfulness. She just can’t remember too many things.

Not ONE Democrat Senator asked Ford a single question today... some hearing.

Attorney for republicans kept trying to get Dr Ford to say democrats are paying her legal fees which they are not

...and don’t worry Dr. you have a lot of $ waiting for you so that you can cont. to fly overseas for bus. or pleasure. FordtheFraud

Dr. Ford also apparently knows about “Product Placement”. Did Coke pay a fee for the strategic placement of the big COKE bottle?

Should she even say that during question time Seriously! Any woman in congress would be terrified to say she doesn’t believe her for fear of retribution!! It’s what the world has become, there is no longer a freedom of speech

Keith Ellison is guilty. Remove him from the Senate. He must prove his innocence instead of hiding behide the Ethics Com. We believe Karen Monahan. Don't shame her with questions.

Are you promoting coca cola

jaketapper they did not ask those questions as they know what she said is true and they are afraid of everyone hearing the TRUTH get a clue

Well, so much for the presumption of innocence. Slippery slope, here we come.

Shameless product placement, CocaCola

There’s no courage in slandering a SCOTUS nominee for political gains.

What’s up with the coke Promo? The brothers are paying for her team? Circus media in America Bunch Clowns 🤡

She should be on trial

Yet her witnesses denied her claims!

What a joke she ready made up her mind before even questions

Facts are irrelevant.

Wondering if she received a $$$ promotional consideration or a payment for the Coca-Cola bottle sitting there,?

Is that a pubic hair on her coke?

Also, I believe the children are our future Teach them well and let them lead the way Show them all the beauty they possess inside

How much Coca-Cola paid her?

Is anyone following the money? Someone paid off Kavanaugh’s debt. Is this true?

Neither is kavanaugh

🤮

Also screw due process apparently!

Character References ☆PUBLIC TRUST☆ is a Security CLEARANCE lowest level

EXACTLY!!! what's the problem here, Republicans? ARE all of you degenerates? Is that truly the problem?

Seriously, women need to be heard but not automatically believed.

It is political circus orchestrated by globalists and pumped up by FakeNews like

This Committee is BIAS! It’s disgusting! Head of the Committee needs to GO. OLD WHITE MAN! (Grassley) PIG. HE Could care less. getthemout. Republicans are self serving & many have done these same things in their hay day & worse- they think it’s no big deal.

The only response I have is "Is United States really this bad"? Be careful the THE ENTIRE WHITE HOUSE, YOU HAVE DAUGHTERS & GRANDDAUGHTERS. Let's right now bring the greatness back in humans. WE ARE BIGGER THEN THIS.

I wonder if Ole Clarence is watching the hearings?

Well if all of the males have a silent ‘code’ that guarantees that none of them speak of their actions the odds are low that the FBI would find out about their antics. And a lot of the women appear to be ashamed/embarrassed by their memories so they wouldn’t say anything either.

This has nothing to do with party lines and she should be treated as a victim & given due process. His yearbook & history clearly reveals that there is more to this and should be investigated by the FBI.

This format is the biggest Mickey Mouse hearing you can imagine. You’re asking her to answer questions in 5 minute intervals and then get interrupted, asked questions by Democratic Sen’s, and go back to answering the Prosecutor’s questions who obviously has linear questioning.

When was the last time you had to swear under oath in a job interview?

We have seen ChuckGrassley’s strong desire to CoverUpAndConfirm. Perhaps the background reviews were rushed. Why doesn’t POTUS ask the FBI reopen the investigation? As SenatorLeahy has requested, FBIMustInvestigate. SubpoenaMarkJudge ListenToSurvivors BelieveChristine

6 FBI investigations before any allegations of sexual misconduct. The Republicans are making a mockery of this hearing by not having the FBI vet Dr. Ford's story. No one should ever vote for a Republican ever again. EVER.

No it’s a trial of Kavanaugh.

Secret? What secrets are still in the possession of the GOP's 100,000 pages? Grassley has some nerve talking about secrets.

No Judge Merck Garland would have been a better candidate if McConnell & Grassley didn’t give him a hearing or a vote. Keeping the SCOTUS seat open almost a year. In this case they are rushing to get Kavanaugh approved before the next election so Kavanaugh is elected to the court

Because victims remained silent

This shit is so ridiculous. Lady doesn’t remember shit except it was Brett.

She needs to be removed from her seat. Feinstein is a womanizer! She exploited Ford

How does she know the others had not been drinking? Notice that she is basically reciting an msnbc script, not answering questions.

Bravery? Are you kidding me?

Ok so why do they want an fbi investigation if its only a job interview?

For a woman that couldn't recall what really happened. Suddenly remembers a lot this morning..BS IStandWithKavanaugh

Usually don’t have witnesses at a job interview.

This is a disgrace. A sham. A CON JOB!

Seriously. You’re setting the precedent that teenagers cannot make mistakes and soon will judge nominees by childhood friends and parties they attend.

Amazing, this “altered her life” all the academic credentials, married, children, HOW is THAT an altered life? For one DO NOT believe her well rehearsed accounting ! MAGA 🇺🇸

I'm pretty sure the world leaders are asking that same question about America after listening Trump. America we've got to do better--much better-- starting with the Mid-term elections! Let's right this wrong and turn the page on this embarrassing chapter in American History.

democratic plantation hey let's see how low they can go today..

She has amazing hearing, behind two closed doors she heard then leave the room, walk down a hallway then a down stairs laughing...all while music was playing. ...when did they turn the music off? She heard them, no one heard her scream?

A second front door? I think she wanted two doors because she probably forgets which door to come in and out of. Oh please don't cry sweet Christine. I'm doing enough of that for the both of us by laughing at this farce and sideshow we're footing the bill for. ConfirmKavanaugh

Is this silly woman a teenager or what? Ford's testimonial acting is really pathetic

Look at what we got for President. We truly are scraping the bottom of the barrel. I’m not sure the Dems have anyone better to offer. I’m glad we have someone like Bernie Sanders. It’s apparent our 2 party system is broken beyond repair.

What a speach....

Christine Blasey Ford: American hero and patriot.

No, it’s a crucification of Kavanaugh based on allegations that have never been confirmed, where everyone ChristineBlaseyFord mentioned denied being there or seeing Kavanaugh in any way she mentioned. This is a hit job, for grandstanding by the Democrats

Tüketici degil üretici olalım Osmanlı torunlarına sesleniyoruz haydi ayağa kalk ya allah tarihini unutma önümüzde Avrupa kapılarında tıtreyen gavurları unutma ...dolar denen kölelik yönetimi yıkalım Yok edeceğiz

Republicans

NO TEARS.

Feinstein is repeating allegations that have been either proven false or have zero corroboration

No, he's the very worst. Morally on a par with his pal in the White House.

Terrible actor

She is not lying.

Poor Chrissy Ford is crying about Summers spent swimming at country clubs in the suburbs of Washington DC. She went on to explain how a home renovation, drove her to therapy and the recounting of being sexually assaulted. Wanting a second front door drove her over the edge!

Hey Democrats, Next time you want someone to lie about being sexually assaulted, try to find one who can act. This is pathetic!

No it’s a trial for the judge. He already had his interview you just chose to hold this information until after so it would look like a trial because that would affect his character more than bringing up during the interview

The witch said it herself...this is not about Ford, it's about Kavanaugh. dirtydems and their dirtydeeds

SO “SEARED” INTO HER MEMORY THAT SHE NEEDS A SCRIPT TO REMEMBER!

Her statement has been open to the media for over 16 hours. She is clearly "laying it on thick".

When Dr Ford called the tip line was her voice quivering like right now. Did she take drama?

What a game full of lies

Is he the best we can do?

What's that smell? I smell bull crap

She would be correct.

It’s not a trial of Judge Kavanaugh either.

If you want to attack a mans credibility, the the accusers credibility also comes into play. No matter how much you don’t want it to. SenFeinstein ComfirmKavanaughNow Kavanaugh ChristineBlaseyFord ConfirmBrettKavanaugh

Dr Ford is in a lot of pain.

I used to have a bit of respect for Feinstein. Not anymore. SHE alone could have asked the FBI to investigate...it was in her power as soon as she received the letter... IF she believed it had merit. But she waited. Ask yourself WHY. ComfirmKavanaugh

If Feinstein was sincerely concerned about seeking the best, she never would have voted for Obama.

If the memories are so vivid in Dr . Fords memory......why is she reading what sounds like a script? Just an observation and to be clear...I am against anything Trump related. But I'm also not influenced by either side because I'm not American.

A second front door, really? Wacadoodle

She's "pickled" in liberal ideology. She WORKS FOR the abortion industry and SHE'S A LOUSY ACTRESS.

This is a waste of time. This is a professional women reading and exaggerating an event that I believe may have happened, but not in the fashion she is portraying it.

ConfirmBrettKavanaughNow This is why I voted for Trump. This is the nominee I want.

Evidence please. And if she question the choices all can make, how about the Chinese spy worked for her many years and what's the real sense of choice.

Softball questions: Yes. Yes. Yes. Will the lady yield her time?

There we go - I have seen the Democrat tag line over a dozen times now. You all got your spin report and are faithfully spewing it.

He's better then you...that's for sure

does ms Ford could stop talking in vocal fry ?!?!

They should have brought in Judge Judy.

Why don’t you tell us who you would support from POTUS short-list? No one? Judge Kavanaugh it is.

All this shit-show is, is a protest on steroids but with real-life consequences though

She is trying her hardest to produce tears. Not a good actor.

Ford remembers so many details including month and year😅😅😅😅🤣🤣🤣😂😂

How did she get through the locked door so quick. She remembered them pinballing down the stairs.

Interview is done...this is a trial.

“And now I will enter a bunch of heresay into the record”

Kavanaugh had an impeccable record until the false claims by the resistance

I like the opening by Grassley where he said Frankenstein withheld information and you could see she was pretty much embarrassed by that on national TV

To chicken shit to ask the questions themselves. Don't want to be blamed for the harassment questions. Tired of a bunch of old southern senators running our country. Time to vote them out.

Sorry watching reruns of QVC

I'm listening to Sen Chuck Grassley is there something wrong with this guy, he can't even speak properly at what he is reading wtf

Satan has a calendar, too. He has Mitch McConnell and Chuck Grassley circled on it.

That’s too bad since some are very poor at asking questions. Waste of precious time.

Someone needs to ask kavanaugh how much training he has had in body language and testifying in court. This goes a long way in him answering questions that appear truthful but may be otherwise.

OMG... Chuck Grassley’s intro is droning on and on. Blah, blah, blah, blah.

New: A decade ago, Julie Swetnick made a sexual harassment complaint against her former employer, New York Life Insurance. Representing her was the firm run by Debra Katz, who now reps Christine Blasey Ford. She was paid a financial settlement.

Guess what tomorrow is? It's ConfirmKavanaugh Day! You lunatics on the left better double up on your dosages, it's gonna get rough for you!! ha,ha,ha!!

She is a very respectful Dr.

Waste of time and tax payers money the United states of America 🇺🇸 has become a joke to the world thanks trump administration

I hope the stop line of questioning that is disrespectful!

It's only 7:15 and already it's a horror show.

What an insulting opening statement from Grassley! SMDH

Will she stay or quit and run?

Christine Blasey right now

Someone get the hook for Grassley!!!!!

Everything about this crap has been coordinated & orchestrated by Soros' liberals. It's a freaking sham. A con

So we have to listen to separate pontificatifications of "I BELIEVE" "I BELIEVE" form the dems as though they are at an EVAGELICAL REVIVAL!! will be gaging!!!

Way to open it up Grassley by injecting your damn bias into the hearing. Go away fossil

She looks scared as heck. She should be.

She looks like an Alcoholic. LOL

AC360 she looks so upset, my heart really goes out to her.

That poor innocent women and the drunken perv. Republicans will live or die with this, they are all in on this one’

Does she have an ear peace in?

And CNN Propaganda will be right there to back up the Dems with biased, dishonest reporting

Grassley sure is making it hard for her. That speech is horrible, making her look bad

*Colluding their lies. *Fixed it for you.

What the heck Grassley, way to throw you bias into the beginning of the hearing. What an ugly cuss

AC360 Why are they accusing Democrats of leaking this information? This point should be rejected!

It won't help her no matter what they do.

I would have much rather seen them give all their time to Kamala.

Now we know why CNN does not use a current picture for Ford. Damn.

Wait... you're telling me they have a direct plan and set questions and a tactical plan to all of this? Well... I actually believe they have had this set up since before July.

I support CHRISTINE BLASEY FORD!!!!!!!

CNN 1 in Fake news

Why watch on “Fake News” CNN? Tune directly to the Senate live feed

I had to change the channel. RickSantorum was nauseating and the others weren't much better.

This is more exciting in the Super Bowl😁😁

At this point his no longer a consideration for the position Nextchat !

Both saying we were ready but BrettKavanaugh did nothing, therefore he must be punished

If I have to listen to dickhead santorum mansplain and talk over everyone for one more minute I will not be viewing via CNN

I love the tacobell crunch wrap supreme- do they have them there ? Thanks
