House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Sunday filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request in an attempt to obtain all of the records related to the FBI investigation into Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. "The GOP’s decision to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court has wounded the very soul of justice in our country," Pelosi wrote in a statement to her Democratic colleagues. "To preserve the full record of this dark chapter, I am filing a FOIA request so the public can see the FBI report, transcripts of interviews, instructions from the White House, and any communications...

Bill Mitchell: "Collins might never have voted for Kavanaugh and given her epic speech without an FBI investigation. The FBI investigation might never have happened unless Flake demanded it. Who did Flake talk to right before demanding it? Rosenstein. Not everything is as it appears."

Full title: This Sentence From Grassley's Latest Letter to Ford's Attorneys Suggests Huge Discovery About Contact With Dems In a letter to Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s legal team, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley asked for records and descriptions of any communications with senators or their staffs. But he didn’t stop there. Grassley specifically named Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Mazie Hirono “in light of recently uncovered information.” "I urge you once again, now for the third time in writing, to turn over the therapy notes, polygraph materials, and communications with The Washington Post that Dr. Ford has relied upon as...

(CNN)Sen. Jeff Merkley said Thursday that the FBI's supplemental investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh "won't change any minds."

Motto: when you realize your character assassination failed and you’re not only going to have a conservative leaning SCOTUS for the next 50 years, but you also just screwed over your party for the next 2+ elections By Marijuana Stocks The circus is over. The seventh FBI investigation on Judge Kavanaugh is now finished. And, obviously, nothing was found. The so-called sex-assault-survivors’ (an expression that monetizes on holocaust iconography) claims remain uncorroborated by witnesses. The FBI report puts Kavanaugh in the clear, and it’s currently being reviewed by Senate. The report was delivered yesterday, on Wednesday, and, again, no witnesses...

These previous weeks have been nothing short of unprecedented. The Democrats pulled every dirty trick in the book to make sure Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh never donned the robe of a Supreme Court Justice. But all of this now seems to be coming to an end as the FBI investigation has come back with nothing damning against Kavanaugh, and Mitch McConnell now calling for the vote to confirm Kavanaugh to be held tomorrow. As Joe Cunningham wrote earlier, McConnell wouldn’t be calling for the vote if he didn’t have them. Sen. Jeff Flake and Susan Collins also appear to...

GOP senators hold press conference on Kavanaugh nomination and FBI investigation and background check (10/4/18) Oct 4, 2018.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein stood next to Chuck Schumer as she gave an interesting statement in which she contradicted herself within a few moments of speaking. Her and Schumer walked into the room, stated they were not taking any questions. Feinstein stated that she reviewed the report in a very limited time. She said that she had to leave. She said she had the opportunity to read some of the report, but did not read the entire report. She claims that the FBI report looks to be an incomplete document, but she also said that she left and did not read...

According to an on-air report by CNN, the FBI report on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh is at least 1,000 pages long. Phil Mattingly, CNN’s congressional correspondent, said on Thursday that the FBI’s report was incredibly lengthy and that they spent a significant amount of time interviewing Kavanaugh’s high school friend Mark Judge. “As a couple of people have noted, the report is, we’re told, more than 1,000 pages long,” Mattingly reported. “One of the key issues for Senators Flake and Collins has been an interview with Mark Judge.” “That is one of the primary reasons this FBI investigation was...

Although it has been disputed by some Fact Check sites that the group ‘CENTER FOR POPULAR DEMOCRACY’ is connected to George Soros, the group is heavily funded by Soros.. I wrote an article several days back called, “The Resistance Group ‘CENTER FOR POPULAR DEMOCRACY’ Is Taking Credit For Stopping The Kavanaugh Confirmation Process.” In it I stated the following – QUOTE – Jeff Flake was confronted by protesters from the CENTER FOR POPULAR DEMOCRACY in an elevator ahead of Kavanaugh vote. I think there were two protestors, and they were aggressive. . Protestors should not have the power to run...

Two key senators who have remained undecided on the Supreme Court nomination of Brett Kavanaugh on Thursday praised a new FBI report detailing the agency's latest background investigation — comments that seemed to suggest the odds of confirmation might be moving in his direction. Their comments came as Senate Republicans on Thursday claimed that the FBI probe into sexual assault allegations against Kavanaugh had vindicated him by failing to uncover new evidence of wrongdoing, while Democrats blasted the speedy probe as "limited" and "incomplete." Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said she was still absorbing the new report, but sounded satisfied with...

You be the judge. Sounds sloshed to me.

The schedule is as follows: 8 a.m. ET: Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, gets a first look. 9 a.m. ET: Senate Judiciary Committee ranking member Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., will get access second. 10 a.m. ET: The rest of the Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee will be allowed in. 11 a.m. ET: The rest of the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee will be allowed in. Afterwards, all remaining senators will be be allowed to examine the findings, but not their staff members.

Having reviewed the FBI’s supplemental background investigation, the White House said on Thursday it was “fully confident” that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh would be confirmed.“With Leader McConnell’s cloture filing, Senators have been given ample time to review this seventh background investigation,” said Raj Shah, the principal deputy press secretary for the White House. “This is the last addition to the most comprehensive review of a Supreme Court nominee in history, which includes extensive hearings, multiple committee interviews, over 1,200 questions for the record and over a half million pages of documents. With this additional information, the White House is...

They'll want more delay, FBI needs to interview a few thousand more people to be complete

CNN's New Day crew is doing its best to undermine the FBI's latest investigation of Brett Kavanaugh, thus giving cover to wobbly senators considering a 'no' vote. On CNN this morning, host John Berman suggested that it was a "sham investigation." A bit later, Alisyn Camerota shed crocodile tears, fretting that the supposedly inadequate investigation could be "bad for the FBI."Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

I didn't see a thread on this. I am not a fan of Mitch McConnell, but he did a good job in his opening comments. Chucky Schumer is quite impressed with the sound of his voice, as usual.
