Sen. Dianne Feinstein (Calif.), the ranking Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee, is calling for the White House and the FBI to release the written directive President Trump sent launching the investigation into Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
Feinstein sent a letter to White House counsel Don McGahn and FBI Director Christopher Wray on Sunday requesting that a copy of Trump’s written directive be released to the committee.
“Given the seriousness of the allegations before the Senate, I am writing to request that you provide the Senate Judiciary Committee with a copy of the written directive by the White House to the FBI,” Feinstein wrote.
She also requested that the bureau release the names of any additional witnesses or evidence that is included if FBI agents expand the original investigation.
Trump on Friday ordered the bureau to conduct an additional investigation to update the file on Kavanaugh after Senate Republicans agreed to a one-week investigation.
The directive came one day after Christine Blasey Ford testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee and described in detail how Kavanaugh allegedly assaulted her in the 1980s when they were both high school students.
Ford was the first of three women to publicly detail allegations against Kavanaugh. He has denied all of their claims.
Deborah Ramirez, the second woman to come forward with accusations against Kavanaugh, has reportedly spoken with the FBI as part of the additional investigation as of Sunday.
Ramirez told The New Yorker last week that Kavanaugh exposed himself to her at a dorm party at Yale University in the 1980s, causing her to touch him when she pushed him again.
The third woman, Julie Swetnick, claims that Kavanaugh attended a party where she was drugged with "Quaaludes or something similar" and attacked by a series of men in a "gang rape."
I was watching NBC Nightly and Democrats are now questioning 'the scope' of the investigation.
Why? Is she vowing to vote ‘yes if they do?
<><> Who in Feinstein's office betrayed Ford's trust?
<><> Why didn't Ford know we were willing to come to California to depose her?
<><>did a someone on the Judicial Committee send Ford's confidential letter to the media causing the hearing to be delayed?
<><> who referred Dr. Ford to Ms Katz, a lawyer who is a Democrat activist?
<><> were Ford's lawyers representing her or Democratic interests?
<><> was Ford coached to say things that advanced the Democrat agenda? Sept 30

...........says the broad who wouldn’t release Fords original letter to anyone.
They are looking in to outside influence and prior communications with political intentions.
Sorry, we can’t release that information due to the ongoing investigation.
Just say “NO” to Madame Depends. Heard she leaks.
It will never be enough. Flake comes through for the demoncrats.
Gee, never predicted that! /s
Spy-Fi....she speaks...won’t save her seat in Senate.
As soon as Rosenstein releases the scope of the Mueller investigation (the second one, from August 2017) - then I’m fine with it.
Not before.
The dems are not going to give up their ill gotten gains under O’muslim. With Hillary, they were one election away from never having to worry about elections again. They’re going ‘ALL IN’ and the Repubikans in the senate are grabbing their ankles and lubing up.
I would not normally advocate for California Republicans to vote for DeLeon to make a point - but I’m making an exception in this case.
Whoa boy is she scared
ChiDiFi wants to know if she is a subject.
She wants to know if she is being investigated. She should be.
To re-quote every FBI official ever: “We can’t comment on an ongoing investigation, ... Sweetie.”
I think the concern is too much now.....LOL.....
It changes by the hour
Release the Chinese spy investigation!
Oops, sorry. (They should hold it as presidential priveledge demands.)
Of course she wants to know the scope...if it involves her then she wants a heads up
By all means, release it in six weeks.
