(Worthy News) – Republicans are ready to push ahead with a vote on Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh after becoming frustrated with his accuser, who has rebuffed numerous chances they have offered her to tell her story.

Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, Iowa Republican, said he is sticking with his plan to hold a hearing Monday to give Christine Blasey Ford a chance to detail her accusation that Judge Kavanaugh attempted a sexual assault against her when they were both teenagers — climbing onto her, attempting to strip off her clothes and stifling her cries for help.

The judge has vehemently denied the accusations, as have others Ms. Blasey Ford says were witnesses. She, meanwhile, has backed away from her calls for a public chance to tell her story, saying now that she first wants the FBI to investigate the judge and to set her own timing for a hearing.
