Guilty until proven innocent. Idiocracy = America
Actually, I’m hoping an investigation has been going on since this thing started and the FBI is ready to indict a few people for fraud
What is it with Arizona “Senators?”
Why is this a headline? Democrats ALWAYS get their way.
Look,it’s pretty obvious Flake has pledged to vote Yes by throwing him this bone. WE know this one-week background check won’t find anything.
The Leftists will yell and scream like they always do, but if Flake goes back on his word after getting this one-week cover from McConnell? It would be the ultimate betrayal.
I’m keeping a close eye on the spineless weasel.
“Democrats Get Their Way Due To A Republican”
If it weren’t for RINOs DemocRATS could get nothing done.
Due to three Republicans. Remains to be seen if the three Republicans live up to their word.
If the FBI couldn’t find anything adverse in Kavanaugh background after six investigations, there are slim chances for a seventh to uncover anything.
And if the democrats refuse to believe sworn testimony of three or four witnesses for Kavanaugh, how can they logically believe any sworn testimony against Kavanaugh. And they are, at this moment, trying to locate just that.
I think people here are overreacting about the FBI inquiry. Republicans, and especially Trump, wouldn’t bend to political pressure unless they had a back up plan. Frankly, as more information comes out that Dr. Ford is connected to the CIA, and her family is long time CIA operatives, as well as her connections to the Clintons, the political anger will only swell. Without any witnesses to back her up, and and FBI investigation that does not fit her testimony, anger will grow further. Then, they can force the Senate and call a vote on the floor, and politically the Democrats will be hurt if they try not stop it or vote against him.
The Democrats need a way out now, an investigation that shows evidence not consistent with Dr. Ford’s testimony, gives them an out. They satisfy their base, of due diligence, and hope that the rest of America forgets that they staged the whole event before the Mid-Terms. You can bet that Trump and the NSA is already tracking the money, the people, the places, and it will be released to the public.
I see that the Democrats were using Dr. Ford and the sexual misconduct issue, hoping to delay. They expected a bargain from Trump, probably related to the FISA and NSA abuse. This has morphed into a test of wills and truth, with Judge Kavanaugh and his family in the middle. The mistake the Democrats made, because they live in an echo chamber of ‘like travelers’ and urban areas, is the real anger felt by independents and motivation of the right for the mid-term vote. What started as a test of will and good vs evil, has become an ‘all in’ game for the Democrats in which they are betting the 36 year old memories of a CIA operative for accuracy.
Flake just did everyone a favor in my opinion. I don’t think the Democrats will be left with a pair of 5’s after the investigation.
Most of us believe the FBI investigation will be a sham .....
BUT.....the resultant FBI report is handed off to Trump.
That is the key here. I now understand why he agreed to it.
Democrats are irreversibly stupid if they think Trump will allow the FBI to set the terms for Kav’s confirmation.
Let’s see….the Democrats find a woman with emotional problems who happened to go to school in the same place that Judge K went to school. They get her the same attorney that is defending McCabe, and pay the legal tab for her. They set up an unusual polygraph test in an airport motel by an ex-FBI operator. She doesn’t know who paid for that. She flies back to CA and waits for her summons from Feinstein’s office. Charles Grassley staggers through the Kavenaugh hearings, and when they get ready to vote, Feinstein springs the surprise attempted rape allegation and the charade is on.
The only good thing about this horrible injustice is that the fossil generation of Republicans will soon be gone, and the younger generation, with the exception of the terminally dense Flake types who won’t get elected, will be much less gullible. Pray that the nation survives until that better day.
Democrats always get their way due to “a Republican”.
Sh!t needs to stop right now.
Harris screaming something about the Majority winning ,LOL
The FBI should conclude Sunday, say no new info. Case closed, vote Monday.
The RATs will scream either way..if investigation too short, scream..if they take all week, still scream
“...after two key Republican senators — Jeff Flake and Lisa Murkowski — said the FBI should investigate Christine Blasey Ford’s claim ...”
Historically, traitors have been dealt with most severely.
