I predict she will not agree to testify. Her lawyers know that Grassley wants her to testify, so he knows something.
Instead, her attorneys will drag this out, so that Dems can continue to make her a victim. They will continue to vilify Kavanaugh and use this through the mid-terms. Then, if Dems happen to get the majority, they will attempt to find some way to impeach Kavanaugh, without the accuser ever needing to testify.
ETA: Perhaps the best thing to do is subpoena her, and make her testify. That would settle this.

I was responding to this from Bluaajah
Even IF Kavanaugh was the one who told Whelan, it seems more like Kavanaugh might have asked "who the heck is this person?" and asked someone to find out who she was.
ugh.
did whelen try to frame an innocent man - yes or no?

Lot if ifs here, but if Kavanaugh gets confirmed the democrats will keep building the case against him in the media, online etc (court of public opinion) while trashing committee republicans and the president for supporting and pushing through an attempted rapist to their political advantage, then if they get a majority in the midterms impeach justice Kavanaugh.
Brilliant but devious strategy.
They're in this for the long haul no matter what happens next, it will never go away.

Nobody thought Obama murdered Scalia. But....
Let's play YOUR game: Prove that he didn't order a hit. And if you can't prove it, we need to go ahead and convict him anyway, or at the very least, keep him from ever holding an important position.

This is great. We should have an investigation.
Imagine if she was found to be a liar.
The left wouldn't be able to pull this on anyone any time soon, right.
The smart play by kavanaugh is to push for the investigation himself.
They are also charged with background checks and virtually endless associated infractions that are not prosecutable crimes, federal or otherwise.
The FBI VERY MUCH cares about "drunken parties" during background checks.
Illegal drug use during HS or other times is an automatic disqualifier for Federal Judgeship and most other Federal Positions requiring a background check.
Getting back on the horse is always 80% mental anyways.
Kavanaugh is an innocent man and he is in the process of being framed for a crime that no one likely committed. And instead of being up in arms about injustice you are leading the charge!!!

That's the problem.
If she refuses to testify, it will be hard to prove she is lying.
I hope that if she does not agree to testify by today's deadline, they go public with the results of the investigation.

I love that they are hinging it all on winning midterms....this should be good.
What are they going to do if Ford is proven a liar?
same reason she refuses to show the original unredacted letter to either the rest of the committee...or even the FBI

I am not against kavanaugh being scotus at all. But you don't know this.
You never met the man, you are not with him at all hours of the day. Anyone is capable of anything.
If your going to say well just look at his career I would counter with just look at christines career .
Both her and kavanaugh at face value appear to be educated, moral upstanding citizens.
That's why I say let the courts decide.
