The woman who has accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh is allegedly willing to testify in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee next Thursday if specific demands are met.
Both Shannon Bream of Fox News and Seung Min Kim of the Washington Post have tweeted the report about Dr. Christine Blasey Ford.
Multiple sources tell me and @MikeEmanuel – Ford’s team is asking for Thursday #Kavanaugh

They both reported that she wants to be questioned by senators on the committee, not outside attorneys. She also reportedly wants Kavanaugh out of the room during her testimony and would like to be questioned second.
It’s unclear how Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley will respond to these reported demands.
Oh! One more tidbit from the call. They are discussing Thursday as a potential hearing date but that is not yet locked down

While Ford has suggested that she’d be willing to testify at the end of next week, Kavanaugh is scheduled to be in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee this Monday. (RELATED: Brett Kavanaugh Is Chomping At The Bit To Testify About The Blasey Ford Accusation)
