The only good thing that happened today is that it is out of committee. Flake just proved what a jackass he is.

Will McConnell stand up to Schumer? Can McConnell stand up to his own RINOs? I wouldn’t want to place a bet on either!!

This will tell us exactly who is running Congress....Pubs or Dems.

Buck up, Leader McConnell.

“Uhhm, someone might want to tell Flake that the Judiciary committee can’t “order” the full Senate to delay anything.

Flake knows that. But Di-Fi didn't and got rolled.

Whatever Flake’s position, he has enabled the possibility of some deep state mischief from the FBI to punish Trump. The FBI has one week to dig up new “witnesses” or even start asking for “more time” several times until after the midterms. This is Flake’s middle finger to Trump on his way out the door.

Was it a delay, or a move out of the committee to the floor?

I thought that the FBI had already declined to investigate Ford’s claim and all the others.

Thats right, they did! Why are no Republicans saying that?!?!?!?

What is there to blackmail Flake over? Anyone with eyes and a brain already knows he is queer as a 3 dollar bill and dumb as a box of hair.

Got me. Some of these people just seem to be able to slime their way on these committees.

Grassley used a quick hammer to get it out of committee. The ‘rats thought there would be a vote on further FBI investigation.

DiFi was like WTF?

Flake is a future lobbyist. He is playing both sides. He will do well.

Maybe the money is already flowing????

Mitch better save the day.

He has the authority to stop this BS in its tracks and call for a floor vote TODAY!

But will he....?

I seriously doubt it.

Harry Reid sure as hell would have.

DiFi offered to withdraw the entire complaint days ago and allow the confirmation in return for some unrelated goodie for Democrats.

Can’t remember what the goodie was, but that tells you it’s all BS and she knows it.

Flake is a fool who caved over two women with a BS story. NOw there will be more, and more. How does it end?

Better be that way or random women will be filing charges on Flake and all the rest.

” Flake locked me inside a tanning coffin and climbed in with me.” The proof is my orange skin that is so burnt it’s getting flakey.” bwahhh.

Well, the Democrats won again. We hold the senate, the house and the WH, yet we never win, never. Pointless to vote.

OK... Fine... Let’s do the background check on all the accusers to find the skeletons in their closet and find them absolutely not creditable.

Then make sure that the Senate is chastised for purposely fully backing these people going into the midterms.

Attach everything they ever did wrong to those and their party who supported them as creditable. :)

This is all mumbo-jumbo inside baseball stuff. FBI doesn’t have a time machine, which is why they declined the first time. Kavanaugh will be on the Supreme Court. But as POTUS said, “there may be delays”.

I say McConnell should make everyone work through the weekend.

Grassley ignored request for delay on senate floor, which the committee can’t force anyway. Called Flake’s bluff and called for the vote. He voted to send out of committee.

Now up to McConnell. If he has the votes, he goes ahead. If not, then we will see.

Grassly has indicated he has had over 20 investigators working on this. They are former FBI, ICE and other professionals. FBI already done 6 background checks on kavanaugh. I think this might be about a perjury trap now. Hoping FBI might find someone who said Kavanaugh was passed out drunk somewhere.

Regardless what a mess. Republicans are just a notch above the traitorous democrats.
