The FBI crap is up to McConnell. Thomas went through committee with no majority vote, Kav JUST got a majority vote. Flake's well being was threatened (we all saw the video) he voted YES but needed political cover with their fakeass FBI crap.

Flake never called for an amendment. He must’ve told Feinstein that he would but he did not

My understanding is that DJ T would have to ask for the FBI to investigate. And he is not going to do that.

Does Whitehouse not realize there was no amendment?

He said in the meeting that he has no power to delay a vote. I'm don't think he was surprised by what Grassley did at all.

That committee alone cannot call for an FBI investigation. It has to be done by somebody else so essentially the Democrats are just pissing in the wind

Flake was pretty clear in what he was saying.

This is why we need term limits. All those ancient people on the committee apparently can't comprehend anything.

The committee voted. Kevin is nomination is moved to the Senate floor but not before Thursday after the FBI has a chance to look into


Not true. Mitch can call for a vote for Tuesday.

The committee vote happened today, and they voted 11-10 to advance him to the Senate floor.

I assume the FBI has been looking into this the last week, so I can't imagine this will take a full week.

Dems thought they had another delay. Flake fricked up and Grassley took the opportunity to close that window.


It’s not an official delay, but McConnell has to decide if he wants to have the vote with flake being a no

This is not like a full criminal investigation. They will basically just interview people, follow up on some stuff and say they couldn't find nuffin. Trust the process.

Agree. There is a firm timeline and it is specific to Ford's claims. This isn't a murder trial. It won't go over. FBI coming out and saying there is no evidence will be embarrassing for Dems.
