You should be able to stream it on the Interwebs.

On edit: Sorry, just checked and they say you have to log in via your cable provider. Arggh. Maybe somebody with more experience can chime in with helpful info on how to watch on line.

would it be streamed but I just saw crappy Lindsay Graham still sticking up for Kavanaugh. It is just Dr. Ford's testimony today correct?

question or make comments. I was assuming that since they hired a woman prosecutor, they would be quiet. It is like they have 2 chances to talk. IMHO>

He just doesn't look like a Chuck. Or, for that matter, a Rosenberg.

He does look and act like a man who resigned as administrator of the DEA rather than become part of a misuse of power as the Trump administration required.

The Washington Post Editorial Board, in a piece titled "A divided nation gets moral guidance - but not from Trump" wrote "His letter was important not as a rebuke to the president but as a model of leadership and courage in reaffirming democratic values."

they will show their discord. And the Capitol Police will be hauling them off. Or will they curtail the number of protesters?

They have every right to be there.

I have become fond of CNN so we watch it. I don't mind hearing from the other side even when it makes me angry but some of those on both sides annoy us on MSNBC so we switched a long time ago. Habit now I suppose.

....................
It will be the first time Ford has been seen in public since making her accusations. Kavanaugh appeared Monday on a Fox News Channel interview, itself an extremely unusual event for a Supreme Court nominee. That interview was seen by 3.6 million people, a fraction of the people who are likely to see him Thursday.

Here are individual network plans:

—ABC will follow the testimony live starting at 10 a.m., anchored by George Stephanopoulos in New York and David Muir from Capitol Hill, with analysts including Dan Abrams, Cokie Roberts and Sunny Hostin of “The View.”

—CBS’ morning and evening newscasts will both originate from Washington. Gayle King, Norah O’Donnell, John Dickerson and Jeff Glor will lead the network’s hearing coverage.

—NBC’s coverage will be led by Lester Holt, Savannah Guthrie, Chuck Todd, Megyn Kelly and Andrea Mitchell. The network’s coverage starts at 9:30 a.m.

—PBS will offer coverage anchored by Judy Woodruff to its 355 member stations across the country. It’s up to each local station to decide whether it will air the hearing live.

MSNBC has so much good about it but this morning has been insidiously framing it today as competitive theatre and Scarborough was disgusting in conflating the other allegations including Swetnick’s as all unsubstantiated and selected video of Biden saying that an FBI report was useless.

It feels as if the PTB plan to railroad this one through.
