BREAKING: Flake calls for delay of Kavanaugh vote to allow for FBI investigation
CNN ^ | September 28, 2018 | Meg Wagner, Brian Ries and Paul P. Murphy

Posted on 09/28/2018 10:57:52 AM PDT by C19fan

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.

Collins and Murkowski will now agree with Flake and stop the nomination unless there is another FBI investigation of one week.

During that time 412 more bimbos will appear claiming something against Kavanaugh.
Which will require even more FBI investigations.

And people like you and me will become so sick of this nonsense and cowardice that we will stay home rather than support these spineless Republicans.

Democrats win again.

Impeachment trial starts January 5th.

don’t be surprised if Collins and/or Murkowski follow suit; i.e., not to vote to confirm unless there is an FBI investigation.

Fools, it won't end there, Lucy will move the football again.

Does not matter. Maybe Flake was not doing what we thought. Maybe he was a decoy. If so, I sincerely apologize.

If ever there were someone so aptly named it is Flake.

Investigation shouldn’t take more than about five minutes. Not one ounce of proof

Its out of Judiciary, that’s why this doesn’t make any sense.. the vote happened and judiciary voted to recommend 11-10...

So, any call for delay is not related to the judiciary vote... at all.. This is a STALL attempt for the floor vote.. which makes me simply say this...

In my mind now, this is about 1 or more cases the USSC is hearing this term.. because a vote tommorrow puts him on the court to hear all cases.. but a week delay means Kavanaugh will not be part of whatever cases are heard before he’s confirmed...

SO, WHAT CASES ARE BEING HEARD BY THE USSC THIS TERM?

I have personally wondered about this for a while, because McConnell has been adamant about Kavanaugh being on the court before the term started... even though the closer to election this chaos (and it was ALWAYS going to be chaos) happened the better the GOP would do...

So, what are the cases on the Docket for the USSC??? There is one or more that clearly both the parties thing are vital to either have him for, or make sure he isn’t there for....

At least that;s my read...

It’s clear this is a man that can be swayed emotionally.

Emotion was not the deciding factor price was.

Maybe the FBI should open an official investigation and then immediately determine that the charges don’t constitute a federal crime, and the statue of limitations for state crimes is over, and that the evidence is too stale to proceed. And then close the investigation immediately.

30 minute investigation.

‘It’s clear this is a man that can be swayed emotionally.’

based on some commentary from yesterday, plenty of men on this forum are able to be swayed by people crying...

RE:”And his recommendation has. . . zero binding force.”

Until its put to a Senate vote and his vote is critical.

What are the risks of doing this if he commits to a vote in a week regardless?
