Sen. Jeff Flake just said he would vote to move Judge Brett Kavanaugh out of the Judiciary Committee and to the floor of the Senate as long as the main vote would be delayed by up to one week to allow for an FBI investigation.

We can’t know all that was granted cert. But I bet that Hawaii 2nd Amendment case is one of them.
I share — and admire — your passion to defend our Republic and our Constitution. The Democrat Party — now fully controlled by America-hating Leftists — are fighting liberty.
The FBI can and likely will report that there is nothing to investigate.
The presentation yesterday indicated lots of lack of substance to investigate
I meant do it in the hearing room on camera. Have the FBI say on camera that Ford needs to go to the police and file a report.
“Flake said [Democrats will not be able to] complain that a FBI investigation has not occurred.”
Yeah, for these three allegations. What about the nine more that will come out next week?
Vote on Kavanaugh Monday or not at all. There is no later for this man.
have a vote of the entire senate
Flake has to be satisfied with such a report
After the dems frog marched forced Flake into that anteroom, rumor has it that fineswines whitehaired freak clerk was seen exiting the room smiling holding what appeared to be a strapon. Just rumor of course. /SSS
FBI has already said theres nothing to investigate. But with that said Trump appointing a democrat deepstater named Christopher Ray as head of the FBI might go ahead and investigate every single allegation brought again Kavanaugh, and you can bet democrats are lining up other skanks today to claim that Kavanaugh assaulted them and you can bet that one of them will be a recent assault and the woman will claim to be a republican. Trump needs to tell Wray if they thought there was nothing to investigate weeks ago theres still nothing to investigate,
And to be fair to Flake, maybe he knows this, and just did it to get the Rats off his back.
Agreed! Call all their bluffs. Invite the FBI for a rapid, escalated probe.
Why did Di-Fi (the Chinese spy) withhold info from the FBI?
What do all the named witnesses say?
Let the accusers lie to the FBI in a big public way and face the consequences.

n. A flat thin piece or layer; a chip.
n. An untrustworthy or unreliable person.
I hope the FBI sends a memo later today: For the THIRD time, there is NOTHING to investigate. Case CLOSED.
Then I hope McConnell schedules the opening debate vote for 5am tomorrow, the ending debate vote for 5am on Monday, and the confirmation vote at 6am.
Then I hope McConnell has a private word with Jeff: Up yours Flake. I hope your lobbying career is just as successful as your Senate career.
You are a snarky little mind. Thanks for showing everyone.
Of course the “FBI Investigation extension” needs to have its scope limited to just the specific allegations raised verbally in yesterday’s hearing and have a cutoff limit of exactly one week after the gavel came down in today’s meeting.
Nope.
He'll have been "investigated enough" when he throws in the towel and says, "Screw this, I want to live what's left of my life in peace with my family. I don't need this crap. You people have done enough damage. You win. I fold. Enjoy your Pyrrhic victory."
This isn't about "investigating" him. It's about delaying even longer, so that they can roll out even more bogus accusations. They've undoubtedly got a room full of "victims" waiting in the wings -- or else they wouldn't be doing this.
Perhaps this nomination will get thwarted by the evil left. It would, IMHO, usher in a red tsunami if it does. Can Brett Kavanaugh be nominated again if this time doesn’t go through?
[Feinsteins abhorrent behavior has been rewarded.]
I posted something last week in reference to Dan Brown and I see that comment was deleted....
I’m not going to repeat it, but yeah.... I’m still feeling that way....
If they do this Kavanaugh will never make it, and every other nominee will bogged down in 8 month long investigations, which then need interpreted by 12 month senate hearing, NOPE, TAKE THE VOTE RIGHT NOW, MAN UP, DO IT, THE DEMOCRATS WOULD HAVE ALREADY HAD THEIR GUY IN AN ON HIS FIRST CASE.
“he said he would not vote to confirm BK on the floor without this one week FBI investigation”
I don’t think he was that unambiguous in his statement. Scumbag Flake parses his words very effectively. I thought he said, “he could choose to vote no” on the floor vote if the committees recommendations are not implemented; not that “he would choose to vote no”. Either way, his committee vote was only predicated upon the fact that the committee make the delay and due diligence recommendations to the Majority Leader.
All Flake did was to reserve the right to vote no next week.
Ah, gotcha. I like that idea.
