Graham tells Kavanaugh ‘you’ve got nothing to apologize for’
Lindsey Graham’s office in Mt.
In a full embrace of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, Sen. “Ms. Ford has a problem and destroying Judge Kavanaugh’s life won’t fix her problem”.
Graham said that in his opinion, “you can have the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Central Intelligence Agency and the Foreign Legion” investigate Kavanaugh and still not find any new information. That, according to Durbin, would allow to “finally put to rest these charges if they are false or approve them if they are not”, and is “the only way to answer some of these question”.
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders told “Fox News Sunday” that the White House was “not micromanaging the process” regarding the FBI’s probe. “I don’t know when and where, but it wasn’t Brett Kavanaugh”. Agents should get support from the Judiciary Committee for rapid immunity and subpoena decisions, he said.
Durbin, apparently unsatisfied with the answer, proceeded to demand a definite “yes” or “no” response from Kavanaugh. By calling out the sheer recklessness of the Democrats’ cynical manipulation of the Kavanaugh confirmation for what it is, Graham took on an enhanced leadership position despite never having been a favorite among numerous GOP’s core conservatives. “We’ll do a wholesale investigation of what I think was a despicable process”.
Ramirez’s lawyer, John Clune, said agents want to interview her and she has agreed to cooperate.
“When you see [Justice Sonia] Sotomayor and [Justice Elena] Kagan, tell ’em Lindsey said hello because I voted for them”, he told Kavanaugh before turning again to Democrats.
President Donald Trump ordered the FBI on Friday to reopen Kavanaugh’s background investigation after several women accused Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct. “And if I am chairman next year, if we keep the majority and Senator Grassley moves over, I’m going to remember this”. “That’s bad enough, but then to limit the Federal Bureau of Investigation as to the scope and who they’re going to question?” said Hirono during an appearance on ABC’s “This Week With George Stephanopoulos”. He looked every bit the man who said his family “has been destroyed by this senator, destroyed”.
