They can ignore Flake and proceed with the vote of the full Senate.

He doesn’t have that power....It’s a Flakey vote. The only thing he actually did was vote to move him out of committee and grab a headline

WTF? He just sunk this nominee!

He gives a week, then every other Rat will do the same and this weekend will be a sunami of accusations.

No wonder he can’t win re-election.

PUSSY!!! He lets some freak verbally accost him and he folds like a cheap suit.

And then they will have to have a week to evaluate the investigation and interview the witnesses that the FBI questioned...

These Arizona Senators have a history of throwing dirt in the gears. Can’t the Arizona voters give us someone a little better to work with?

DELAY STRATEGY:
Get FBI involved.
Pressure FBI to delay for months if not a year.

Of course it is not binding in any way but he said he would not vote to confirm BK on the floor without this “one week” FBI investigation. So he actually does have some leverage.

Flake is almost shaking. Flake has the look of a man whose family is bound and gagged somewhere with guns to their heads.

If the FBI investigates, can’t witnesses just tell the FBI to pound states?

In other words, FBI cannot subpoena. All they can do it take statements from willing witnesses, correct?

If so, Smyth, Judge, etc. are likely to tell the FBI to pound sand.

He’s trying to do it “for the good of the country” to delay. But he’s prepared to vote no if he doesn’t get his way.
