In a statement Tuesday night, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley said the move was following the "bipartisan recommendation
to hire as staff counsel for the committee an experienced career sex-crimes prosecutor to question the witnesses."
to hire as staff counsel for the committee an experienced career sex-crimes prosecutor to question the witnesses."
Bipartisan? So it's bipartisan and only the republicans get an experienced career sex-crimes prosecutor? Democrats agreed with this?

Would Trump having pardoned Arpaio be a conflict of interest having her question Ford?

I'm a former prosecutor. If Rachel Mitchell was interested in the truth, the first thing she would do right now is demand that she be allowed to question a witness that the victim remembers was at the scene of the crime. Why is the GOP hiding Mark Judge from the American public?
