Republicans obediently schedule hearing for alleged Kavanaugh accuser without even being allowed to see the July 30, 2018 letter from her-The Hill, 9/19/18...(Time on the clock of US taxpayers obviously not taken seriously. This is why Trump won)

.
Entire “issue” exists only in the media. As of 9/19/18 Senate Judiciary Chairman Grassley hasn’t even been given an unredacted copy of the letter dated July 30, 2018. Utter contempt for US taxpayers.

9/19/18, Grassley wants unredacted version of letter from Kavanaugh’s accuser,” The Hill, Jordain Carney

“Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) is demanding that ranking member Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) hand over an unredacted version of the letter from a woman accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual assault.

Grassley in a letter sent Wednesday to Feinstein said he needs an unredacted copy in order to prepare for the Monday hearing where Republicans have invited both Kavanaugh and his accuser, Christine Blasey Ford, to testify.

“My staff has made repeated requests for this document – which has become a significant piece of evidence in Judge Kavanaugh’s confirmation process – but your staff has so far refused to provide a copy of the letter,” Grassley wrote. “I must review the unredacted letter that Dr. Ford sent to you, dated July 30, 2018. I ask that you send me a copy of the original, unredacted letter immediately.”…

Grassley, in his letter, noted that Ford has until 10 a.m. on Friday to say whether she will attend the hearing…

Feinstein turned over a redacted version of the letter to the FBI last week. The FBI then added the letter to Kavanaugh’s background file, which was then given to the White House and the Judiciary Committee.

Grassley added that the only version of Ford’s letter that he has is the redacted one given to him as part of Kavanaugh’s updated background file.

“Had Dr. Ford not made her allegations public via the Washington Post over the weekend, I still would not know her identity,” Grassley wrote.

Spokespeople for Feinstein didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment about what redactions were made in the letter given to the FBI.

But senators say Ford’s name was redacted. A version of the letter posted by CNN also redacted the names of other individuals at the party where Ford alleges Kavanaugh pinned her down and tried to remove her clothing.

Kavanaugh has denied wrongdoing.”
