Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh is back at the White House this morning as his accuser weighs whether to testify in a Senate hearing on Monday. Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford have been invited to appear before the Judiciary Committee. Ford has accused Kavanaugh of sexual assault more than 30 years ago.

A former classmate of the woman accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct is walking back her claim the incident happened.

The Browns are also looking to rebound from a loss at New Orleans in Week Two.
