WASHINGTON–The woman who has accused President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her decades ago hasn’t yet confirmed her appearance to testify at a Senate committee hearing set for Sept. 24, raising questions about whether the high-stakes public showdown will take place.
Christine Ford, a university professor in California, hasn’t responded to attempts by the Republican-led Senate Judiciary Committee to contact her about appearing at the hearing, Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) said on Sept. 18.
