Women confronted Sen. Flake on Friday after he announced he will vote for Judge Kavanaugh, including one woman who told him to “look at me when I’m talking to you! You’re telling me that my assault doesn’t matter – that what happened to me doesn’t matter.”

2 ladies who work for a Soro's organization confronted Flake with lies of being sexually assaulted,There looking into this to see if this was a set up for him to ask for a fbi investigation.Seeing how many democrats are involved in this.

Replace "women" with georgesoros activists and you're good. Kavanaugh will be confirmed this week.

Let’s get something straight. If Flake or anyone else chooses to believe Kavanaugh over Ford, it has nothing to do with what happened to the women who confronted Flake on the elevator.

That woman should be INTERN IN THE DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP TEAM NancyPelosi. This is exactly the kind of PASSION, DRIVE, AND DETERMINATION we need trained by YOU. ( Delaware Congressional Intern, 1975)

How do we know it happened? Who did it? When? Any witnesses whose sworn testimonies under federal felony penalties thatbare verifiable? Is do, then please tell the world who did it; if charges filed; and if they were prosecuted?

Soros ....pay she

What’s left to debate? Be done with him already

Dead man walking

Kavanaugh had truths and info to back up his claim ! He even remembered much more ! Ford couldn’t tell u anything and when she did it contradicted herself!

marcorubio JeffFlake VP LindseyGrahamSC SenatorBurr RepDavidEPrice SenThomTillis RepMarkMeadows I ask Republicans: is it so important to please the Trump on his nominee that you are willing to loose Nov elections? It’s no Dem sham, but it’s a shame you think like that

They why the delayed FBI investigation? Time on Republicans' side?

Limited in time b/c Feinstein sat on, in fact hid from FBI, this bogus allegation, to later use as a stalling tactic later, which it is now. Of course, that FACT will NOT be explored by NBC -- fake news!

Doesn't look like a Dem victory to me

The poster boy of what’s wrong with politics! A pathetic excuse for a human being. growapairmitch

Now!

No evidence will ever penetrate a closed mind. This one is more closed than a concrete vault without a door.

NO.

senatemajldr SenateDems SenateGOP really more backdoor shadiness. These self righteous, over privileged, entitled men continue to ignore the American ppl & evidence of BrettKavanaugh past. Their agendas all all that matters here TermLimitsNow

I believe they are going to find facts on this guy

Old man did get memo about FBI is going to investigate him. Old man you need to retire or do something about your self

There no one there everyone left you going to debate with yourself? Lol

How corrupt these men are - what is the hold over them - power? money? sex? or just the "old boy netwwork". As bad are the women who support them knowing what harm they do.

This should be made a movie.

Hey Mitch... there’s an investigation going on. Take a damn seat.

No!

Vote Brett Kav

Why are we so gullible to have the Republicans fooled us into believing that they may stop the nomination even after a historic hearing yesterday? A sexual assault victim will remember the incident for life but a drunk may not! Lindsay stopped the prosecutor to ask Kavanaugh!

Thought the Bar Association pulled their support of him. Well Mitch ~ take ur time talking ~ you’ve got a week ~

Why can't he & his friends just be voted off the Island?! These old white men....smh...when will it end?!!

Damn he's pushy!!!! How can they start a debate and move forward while there is still stuff going on They should wait for the results. Things MIGHT change.

People rise up

Imagine if the "last minute" allegation was donating to the Clinton campaign. Kavanaugh would have found himself out of a nomination sans any investigation.

I would prefer not to

Yes! ConfirmKavanaughNow

NBCNightlyNews Good!

Pretape. No way Congress works past 1200 on a Friday. Need to beat that plebeian beltway traffic

never trust a republican to pick country over party

By orders you mean had to order

SenMajLdr — no the ABA changed their rating last night.

NEED TO STOP PEOPLE FROM DERAILING THE PROCESS AND MAKING ALL KINDS OF EXCEPTIONS!

Good, just get it done ✅

Are u all happy. U got the investigation u all wanted.

Can't be done in a week.. why the rush for the truth.

Under pressure? What pressure? He said he will do whatever the Senate told him. FakeNews

The Feds are competent since Elliott Ness days. They will go after that Kavanaugh old dude Mark Judge and squeeze him until he talks.

BrettKavanaugh Flake has caved The Judge should be confirmed. This is clearly a political witch hunt Bless the Judge and his family

Limited in scope? There’s something they know about Kavanaugh they don’t want out.

BrettKavanaugh Judge, rest this wkend with your family.Relax.I am SO sorry this has gotten so out of line for you.If it was one of the Committee members going through they wouldn't last.PLS know you have our prayers and just a few days more.God Bless

KAVANAUGH was asked if he would ask for an FBI Investigation. He replied he would would do what the committee wanted, demonstrating he can't think for himself and would only do the bidding of the GOP & Large corporations. We don't need him on the COURT!!!

What a circus, now the rant will be: not complete and away we go, Dems laughing all the way.

KING5Seattle may God have mercy on her

BrettKavanaugh Brett Kavanaugh, suit them for slander and defamation! Hire a price investigator to investigate Ford. Why do we no have her year books? I support Kavanaugh!

Brett Kavanaugh tonight

If you dig one ditch you better dig 2 that ditch you dig just may be 4you be very careful people

BrettKavanaugh This is a travesty! Ford is not credible. Her letter clearly states she wants to prevent Kavanaugh confirmation! That's her motive to lie. I'm a Registered Democrat. Confirm Kavanaugh!

That's great, but Trump can't decide the scope of the investigation. It's on!

Slap some butter on that white bread, he’s toast.

By far, this has taught me how wise Democrats are to reach across the aisle SenFeinstein amyklobuchar Senator Chris Coons, Senators Jeff Flake & Lisa Murkowski, Joe Manchin and Collins. I hope Ocasio2018 will learn from our long standing Democratic leaders. Thanks SenSchumer

Why limited in scope?

It's about time! Kavanough needs to take a lie detector test!

Limited in scope. Why? Must be done in a week. Why?

He lied on National Television.

The biggest sham investigation known to man.

BrettKavanaugh Adda boy Senator Flake

Thank god we have FBI to investigate this case of a white privileged neurotic country clubbing teenager who got groped and got away from teenage boy 36 yrs ago! What is name of other boy she wouldnt name? Whose house? whitePrivilegeGoneBad MeTooFAIL ConfirmKavanaugh

Sigh

How much more faith would Americans have in this process had the senate or trump or Kavanaugh himself asked for this, the moment the allegations surfaced. A lot more

I still don’t understand the one week time frame and “supplemental” wording but more time is good as The truth about Kavanaugh is coming out.

Chapter 3: Once a Despot, Always a Despot.

Now do Hillary POTUS.

After having no choice he authorizes it. To be clear he would prefer not to.

OMG You aren't counting those that you didn't answer Brett.

KING5Seattle Kavanaugh should just withdraw his nomination. His tirade yesterday shows he is not fit to sit on the Supreme Court. We need stable judges on the highest court in the land. He showed yesterday he is not the man for the job.

Trump is feeling the MeToo crunch

Is This? Kavanaugh

I hope it is done the right way, not just a charade to pacify on the fence GOPers

I'm sure Kavanaugh & judge were both abused by priests that's why judge has such a drug & drinking problem & why Kavanaugh has an abuse & drinking problem

They are afraid of doing a real investigation.

LauraDoza44 Trump ordered a “limited” investigation and it must be completed in a week. I’d say trump wants no new information.

What if the FBI comes back and says they can't complete a thorough investigation in a week?

Today we saw two women... brave citizens... step into an elevator and demand that their voices be heard and they demanded an answer. In doing so, they may have changed the course of US History. This is the democracy that our founding fathers' envisioned.. not PACs and lobbyists.

About fu$&ing time.

supplemental, like not allowed to find anything supplemental? Or maybe its like sudden death overtime - prove one lie and its over?

Ford said she was 15 when this happen. She cant remember how she got home. I am a Parent when your 15 year old comes home you make sure they are all right, did they have a good time, etc. How come her Parents did not realize she was drugged or had been drinking makes no sense.

I’m shocked he ordered it, but I guess he realized it’s the only way his nominee is going to get the votes. Although I can’t wait until the FBI finds the allegations credible and Trump starts bashing their findings.

As much as I would like to condemn realDonaldTrump I’m satisfied. Win or lose as long as we get to the truth. JudgeKavanaugh IBelieveChristine

LindseyGrahamSC

How long before Kavanaugh withdraws?

1 week 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Please find out who the Trump impersonator is 😀!

Interesting.

When Kavanaugh is cleared - the women accusers should be prosecuted to the fullest extent!

Thank you President Trump

AlexNBCNews

Whatever. Sick of this. I'm off social media if I have to listen to this any longer.

Day late and z dollar short as usual

About time

Bottomline: He will still be confirmed by a GOP senate.

Trump defends Kavanaugh amid new allegations of sexual misconductPresident Trump on Monday said he is standing by Brett Kavanaugh as a new allegation of sexual misconduct is threatening to derail the confirmation of his Supreme Court nominee. stableford Kavanaugh has calendars from summer 1982 that he plans to give the Senate that don't show a party that matches Blasey Ford's description, according to someone working for his confirmation. Calendars can't prove it didn't happen but his team will argue there is no corroboration. stableford The calendars show he was out of town much of the summer at the beach or with his parents and they detail basketball games, movie outings, football workouts and so forth. A few parties are mentioned but include names of people other than those identified by Blasey Ford. stableford

Another week for the unhinged libs to come up with more false, unprovable allegations. Remember a day ago when Trump told us the FBI doesn’t do Kavanaugh probes? Dotard This limited investigation could just provide cover for proceeding to confirmation. Any such accusation should not be sat on, preventing further discovery when time would allow for an adequate inquiry. A committee should be a committee, not a single person sitting on information.

Trump orders FBI to reopen probe into Kavanaugh in light of sex assault claimThe announcement is a dramatic concession from Trump, who had strongly endorsed Kavanaugh in the wake of the judge's incendiary testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee a day earlier. In other words "look but don't touch." This "investigation" will be a sham done for the media and those who oppose Kavanaugh to make it look like the GOP is "trying" to please his detractors. No Worries....! Welcome Aboard, Judge K ! 😉 While I think the background check extension should have been done last week it’s still ok to do now since there are more available data points. That being said, it sickens me for both of them that yesterday had to be in open hearing. Order of events driven by bad politics.
