Said today, we should have done this two weeks ago. we know why grassley and mcconnell have been trying to move this along. theres another allegation every day. we dont know if its true or false but weve never seen anything like this about another nominee. the right will say its because the left values this position more than anyone ever. thats why theyre doing this and didnt do it to gorsuch even though these two guys went to the same school at the same time and none of this came out about him....

Or what do you think hes doing? >> i think he is going to wait and see how it plays. i think everybody involved in this drama after they watch these two testimonies unfold tomorrow is going to be asking themselves how does this affect me and my political future. and first to think that way is this president. and if this looks like some of the republicans are going to back off, they can only lose one republican and there are at least ten who are getting weak knees about this. so i think if he see...

And he has not gotten. its a high likelihood that hes not going to have a republican washington in a couple of months and this is the one thing, probably the central tenant of his entire presidential campaign was this rd bohrer wall, something that in an all republican washington with paul ryan and mitch mcconnell controlling capitol hill hes not been able to get. if he doesnt shut down the government this time, theres a likelihood he could do it in december. i think the chances of a government ...

Could be interviewed booy the f. there is not a lot of question that this actually happened. you have a situation where there are a number of people who are interviewed and said yes, they heard about it at night and they heard about it in a couple of days afterwards. some of the people that followed yale students and talk about it openly, i wonder if the story is going to come forward, i dont think there is any questions that the incident actually occurred. judge kavanaugh may suggest a case of ...

The republicans. they had a press conference tonight, two testimonies tomorrow, by the accuser and the defendant, a vote by the committee on friday, and a vote by the full senate early next week. hows that five-act play look like right now? >> well, with its up in the air because the script keeps being flipped every few hours, it seems, where there are new allegations from new accusers, people -- the president coming in and trying to take over the messaging in this, and his press conference, whi...

Ridiculous. the senator is is going to say whatever he needs to say, but attend of the day it comes down to perception. i find it upsetting that i treat a sexual assault allegation not a trial. >> theres no playbook, or a set of rules. it is very ad hoc and entirely political. the president is right on that. it is all political. and the audiences for the claims are the public and the senators and what you see now is a series of blocking and delaying maneuvers. the point of getting the fbi involv...

Going to even listen to this person and that she should not be heard, and if she is, we should still confirm him no matter what she says that raises a lot of questions among people who want the supreme court not to be just a partisan institution, but to have independent voices. >> obviously theres been some criticism among some that this is just purely for theatrics, that republicans and congress are hearing these testimonies purely for the sake of saying, look, we did our job, but in reality th...

The most serious side effects are angioedema, low blood pressure, kidney problems, or high blood potassium. ask your doctor about entresto for heart failure. yeah! entrust your heart to entresto. ♪ the beat goes on. welcome back. im here with john bolton. they said that all four deny allegations about dr. ford. what thoughts on the potential testimony next week. >> judge kavanaugh is an outstanding jurist. i dont know him well, personally, look at the testimonies he had. lets think about fun...

Room. not remarkable that others wouldnt remember. so those are the three testimonies you should focus on. with dr. ford we have this circumstance substantial guarantee of honesty that she related this story long before judge kavanaugh was ever nominated to the supreme court and it is in fact reflected in her therapist notes and her husband was aware of it, too. it seems unlikely she would have made this up all those years ago. those are the issues senators can weigh. >> you mentioned mark judge...

American people as well as the senate which is going to have to vote to assess the credibility. but, i have read enough about rape victims. i worked on a pentagon committee looking at sexually assault cases and heard a lot of testimonies. the fact that the witness experienced this trauma remembers details that no one else remembers is not a surprise nor is it a surprise that she did not tell anyone for decades. many survivors never said anything. i am hoping this will give her some healing to ha...
