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.
