“We reserve the option to have female staff attorneys, who are sensitive to the particulars of Dr. Ford’s allegations and are experienced investigators, question both witnesses." ~Grassley

Given their opposition to Dr. Ford's reasonable (and backed by precedent) request that there be an investigation prior to her testimony, it's quite clear what they really mean when they reference "experienced investigators."

I hate these people.
