WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and an allegation of sexual misconduct against him (all times local):

6:55 p.m.
The GOP chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee wants to set up a call with the woman accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct and the top Republican and Democratic members of the panel.

A spokesman says Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley is "actively working" to set up a call with the woman and with Kavanaugh ahead of Thursday's scheduled committee vote.

Spokesman Taylor Foy says Grassley and the panel's top Democrat, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, routinely hold such "bipartisan staff calls" when updates are made to a nominee's background file.

1. Is this call with the entire committee, or just with Grassley?

If the latter, I’d refuse. In fact, I’d probably refuse anyway. I’d want MY account to be out in the open with the American people, not edited, filtered, and paraphrased by hardline partisans who are probably already scouring the thesaurus to find new versions of “a little bit nutty and a little bit slutty.”

2. Yes, what is the point of it?

Grassley can just say, well, I talked to her and she's not believable. Let's just move along.

5. A call, meaning a phone call? This is ridiculous. In person...swear in the acussed and the accuser

and let us all decide...not a phone call!

4. To hell with that! Open testimony. He just wants a 411 to build attack points.
