The Senate Judiciary Committee voted to advance Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court nomination on Friday after Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) secured a deal to delay a floor vote on the nomination for a week.

Graham went squishy took all of one day. Says Flake is a great guy and if it makes the Dems feel better about the process he can understand the week delay.
So much for calling them out yesterday.
I sent him a contact form saying I’m now wondering if he accepted bribes from the Democrats. I’ve considered him an enemy of us Arizona voters for a long time. The man has no honor or integrity.
This stunt by Flake only verifies he’s a RAT. He’s been very quiet up to now and he has to want this confirmation of Judge Kavanaugh to be delayed until after the election as bad as the RATs.
So we put Kavanaugh through all the stupid demands of the Democrats to call the FBI, he didn’t flinch, and Flake throws all that away.
Can they call the vote for today? Just get it over with.
Roy Moore would be in the Senate had he not been a terrible candidate through and through including taking the weekend off before the election to attend a ball game! Moreover, McConnell did not spend $30 million to smear him with anything - using figures which included an ad campaign against Mo Brooks during the original primary had nothing to do with Roy Moore.
Just now listening to Coons, who all but admitted he spoke with Murkowski and Collins, on the phone, in the anteroom..
Straight party line vote. That was a predetermined outcome, but the country was dragged through endless weeks of drama anyway.
And now it’s on to the full Senate, where a small number of wiffle waffling drama queens will mire the process in even more needless histrionics, before another predictable party line vote.
So are we supposed to trust the FBI to have no bias?
Considering how they handled Hillary’s investigation and how they colluded on the whole Trump / Russia Hoax, we’re supposed to trust them with this?
Personally, I think there should be an investigation of Ford, Feinstein, and how this whole witch hunt came about.
How much was Ford promised?
An investigation is needed and leakers and liars need to be prosecuted.
A few saying Trump said some words backing Ford. Nothing I am seeing says that. Looked on twitter.
Every man and every boy is now a target.
Mitch is going to hammer this home.
I can tell he is really, really p*ssed. The Dems have repeatedly flipped the bird to his beloved Senate tradition and collegiality.
Anyone who crosses him on this is going to wish they had never run for another term.
Dems are going to get destroyed in the Senate.
Yes...FLAKE FLAKED!
Heitkamp is still undecided.
LBJ was a ruthless SOB but when he was Sen. Majority Leader, he got his Senators to vote the way he wanted. I wish McConnell could channel some of that.
The “investigation” would actually be to determine if Kavanaugh lied on his background questionnaire. If he knowingly did so, that would be a federal crime and under the jurisdiction of the FIBbers...
The history books will record 11-10 out of committee. The rest is non-binding on Mitch.
Senate can’t order an fbi investigation though.
At this point, I think you have to figure the worst case scenario is where this is going.
Get out the vote. That is what it will take to fix this.
Like I posted for the past 4 years, the idiot is possessed by McLame’s ghost. Must be an AZ thing..
