It's being reported that Prof. Ford's attorney has sent a letter to @senjudiciary saying that Ford will come forward to testify. The details have yet to be revealed. She is one courageous woman, and we will remain forever grateful. No matter what the outcome. #ThursdayThoughts
2/ Part of the text of the letter states that a "meeting on Monday will not be possible, however, and a full FBI investigation is preferable" BUT it clearly states that she is willing to testify.
3/ And it appears now that she will be prepared to testify next week. There's now speculation that Kavanaugh may not want to face having to testify due to some evidence..dunno what. He's at the WH again today & I continue to hear that McConnell is on the fence @ pulling the nom.
4/ You know, Rachel Maddow, who generally doesn't offer personal opinions, said the other night that she thinks that Kavanugh's nomination may be 'headed for the sun'..she might really have a point. Every day that goes by w/o a vote leaves him on shakier ground. Fascinating.

Just in case the GOP Sens like Ted Cruz and McConnell are telling the truth @ the GOP being 'fired up', donate to @JackyRosenNev who's win will help us get the Senate back. Donate here:secure.actblue.com/donate/jr-ads?…
2/"The Washington Post calls the Nevada Senate race Democrats’ “best pickup opportunity” in 2018, and POLITICO says we have “almost no shot” at taking back the Senate without it. But with a recent poll showing this race is a dead heat, the GOP is going ALL IN to protect this seat
3/"Mitch McConnell-linked groups are dumping MILLIONS into Nevada, and Donald Trump is actively campaigning for our extremist GOP opponent. That’s why a generous group of donors has offered to DOUBLE every dollar to flip this seat blue and take back the Senate for Democrats.

THIS is what's been happening while we've all been so (rightfully) spun @ the Kavanaugh debacle. This is very, VERY serious stuff. #China #MondayMotivation

2/"Taylor Swift’s declaration that she plans to vote for Democrats next month fell like a hammer across the Trump-worshiping subforums of the far-right Internet, where people had convinced themselves, for reasons it will take some time to explain, that the world-famous pop star

1/ " In a DEMOCRATIC society, majority rule must be coupled with guarantees of individual human rights that, in turn, serve to protect the rights of minorities--whether ethnic, religious, or political, or simply the losers in the debate over a piece of controversial legislation.
2/ "The rights of minorities do not depend upon the goodwill of the majority and cannot be eliminated by majority vote. The rights of minorities are protected because democratic laws and institutions protect the rights of all citizens."
3/ ""When a representative democracy operates in accordance with a constitution that limits the powers of the government and guarantees fundamental rights to all citizens, this form of government is a constitutional democracy. In such a society, the majority rules, and the rights
