OPINION: How FBI-Kavanaugh investigation will help the GOP

Sep 19, 2018, 6:28 PM | Updated: Aug 3, 2022, 2:51 pm

Christine Blasey Ford wants an FBI investigation of her alleged claims against SCOTUS nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

Why wouldn’t you want this to happen?

This is such an easy win for the GOP but they are refusing to reach out and grab it.

It’s become clear that the intent was to let her be heard but it was never to listen to what she says. Let her speak, then have a vote, then move on.

An investigation by the FBI would be fairly quick and pretty simple.

Why not have the other people testify?

Bush ordered the FBI to look into it and it took 3 days. There is no reason not to do this.
