The FBI Report Is In. But We’re Not Gonna See It. Because Feinstein.

So the FBI has completed its investigation and provided a super double secret summary report to the Senate Judiciary Committee. Except there’s just one paper copy, no electronic version, and the committee will be allowed to view the report one by one starting this morning.

The summary apparently includes notes from all of the FBI interviews, but as we learned from Joe Biden, the FBI doesn’t make any conclusions. It just offers a summary of what it has learned.

All one hundred Senators will have an opportunity to review the report, if they choose to, and there are also 10 staffers who apparently have access. McConnell has set a procedural vote for Friday that COULD mean that a full Senate vote could happen this weekend.

What’s wack is that there’s nothing in the report that is labeled top secret or even classified, but Senators have been instructed that they are not allowed to share any details from it whatsoever.

Raise your hand if you think that the report contents won’t leak.

No hands raised? That’s what I thought.

Why Senator Feinstein is being so secretive all of a sudden, I have no idea. I mean, even Chuck Schumer wants it to be public. And according to this, the White House has already indicated that it is pleased that there was no corroboration found of the sexual assault claims against Kavanaugh. So let’s be real. We’re gonna find out what’s in it eventually.

Which brings me back to Feinstein and her personally recommended lawyer for Christine Ford – Debra Katz. Did you get a load of the letter that Katz wrote to Grassley in response to his request for Ford’s therapy notes to be handed over to the FBI as part of the investigation? She said, and I’m not making this up, that Ford would hand over the therapy notes once she was interviewed by the FBI. In other words, SHE PUT CONDITIONS on providing evidence that Ford herself claimed would help prove her own case.

What possible reason could there be for that, UNLESS the therapy notes contradicted her story or were in fact helpful to prove Kavanaugh’s innocence?

Worth remembering that for all the talk of the FBI’s supplemental background check, the Constitution confers authority to advise and consent on the Senate and only the Senate. Refusal to provide info to the committee is striking. https://t.co/WyND3KcSHx

Ford’s attorneys released this statement once the FBI report was turned in:

Really? You all of a sudden have corroborating witnesses now? When did that happen? Did Ford decide more people were at the party again? Or that there were previously unnamed people there?

Give me a break. Ford already testified under oath. If she had something to say, that was her time to say it.

This whole thing is a sham, and I’m just crossing every possible available appendage that there are enough YAY votes to get Kavanaugh confirmed and end this once and for all.

Oh, and side note. Ronan Farrow has lost every shred of credibility he worked to earn during the Harvey Weinstein thing. Check out this unbelievable tweet (and then click through to read the whole thread.)

Please read every word of this article. If you need any more evidence that the assault on Kavanaugh’s character has turned journalists into advocates with no interest in the basic standards of source credibility, it’s here. https://t.co/0i0P3ZemM3

What do y’all think? Do we have the votes to get him confirmed? Or will someone flake (pun intended)?
