They voted to move Kavanaugh's confirmation to the Senate floor. However, he has requested a delay of 1 week and no more to ask the FBI to do a background check on the information that the committee has to secure his vote to confirm Kavanaugh.

What he requested is really irrelevant. It's totally in McConnell's hands now.

Yes, you did. They voted to approve the nomination to go to the Senate. Frankenstain thought they were going to vote to delay for a 1 week amendment, but Grassley shot her down. To quote her, "Wait, what???"

She got played.

The voted to pass it out of committee. Now it will be up to the full senate.

Flakes wants them to give the Dems an FBI investigation limited in scope and no more than 1 week in duration before the full senate vote. He said introduced the option for consideration to stop the Dems from whining about it but they'd still just whine about something else.

I don't think that would stop them from whining. Unless the FBI says Kavaugh is a serial rapist they'll say it wasn't done fairly or something. I say let them keep whining and just vote. They haven't stoppep whining, obstructing and lying since POTUS was elected.

They voted, discussed adding an amendment to extend it a week, then ended the session.

I thought Flake said his final vote won't be in favor without FBI investigation

He didn't say his vote won't be in favor, he just said he thinks it would be a good idea and Grassley agreed to placate him so they could move the vote forward knowing full well that McConnell would have to agree with that stipulation and the ball is now out of his court. They won the vote 11 to 10. The confirmation vote will go before the full senate now.

Maybe he did, but that doesn't stop it from moving forward now.

And who knows why he did what he did. Maybe he was just trying to save face. Maybe he's playing a game. Maybe Trump even told him to do that, who the hell knows. Right now it's moving forward and thats all that matters.

Yes but the question is does flakes threat to turn other repubs carry any weight? Do they still have the votes if he flips and it goes to full vote?

Depends if the prez and NSA have treasonous evidence against him or just criminal evidence. Either way, he loses.

The senate can vote without their recommendation. Flake will vote no in full senate

I know the tape seems crazy, and I was sideways when George Webb was so adamant about it. I didn't take it seriously until today, when the investigation was continued. He may be wrong--and god, i pray so hard he is. I'm just scared by what he said because his intel over the last two years has been spot on. He called crossfire hurricane long long before Sara Carter, but hes a street "journalist", so does not have wide circulation. The thing that keeps me watching him everyday is the level of intel that comes out, that only a former/current agent would know. He has explicitly detailed the drugs for weapons operations, involving Strzok, McCabe, Mueller, etc... and its fascinating, whether u believe it or not. His followers have accused him of being Mossad. Maybe. Who knows. Maybe he is former CIA.

But, he says that the Blasey and Kav families are friends, and have been friends for decades. He outlines Blasey's dads CIA background, and said this is all part of plan to impeach Trump. He feels that if the investigation is done in private, Kav will become a justice in the end, but at the expense of Trump. I dont' know. Watch the videos this week, guys, and see if any of this rings true. He claims to know Swetnick, which seemed so far fetched to me, that I challenged him and he blocked me on twitter. I was really taken aback today when Qs prediction did not come true. It just suggested they might have been blindsided. If, for some reason, any of this is true, our only hope of preventing them from impeaching Trump is for EVERYONE to vote. We are strong in numbers, but people could be disillusioned and want to punish the R's if Kav is not upvoted before the election. We cannot let that happen because the D's getting power is worse than the Rs being idiots (which the hiring of that lady prosecutor and the absence of cross-examination of Blasey definitely showed). Nobody outed Blaseys family as CIA, or outed anything about her background. It was a disgrace.

I believe it!!! Several months ago I read that Trump wanted to use Kavanaugh to get to the Vince Foster files and use Kavanaugh as a pawn to appease the democrats. Trump will be using “recess appointments” to get in his chosen few into the SC before the Military Tribunals.

No matter whether the Republicans messed up or not, they are our only hope guys. So don't let that stop you from voting. Consider the alternative.
