Now you're just making things up. He was questioned - vigorously - under oath.
Big difference between openly lying in a forum setting when being questioned by politicians, and being in a dimly lit room and questioned by an FBI agent trained to detect lies & deceit, with a whole nother team of FBI agents behind the glass window with lie detector equipment that measures voice pitch.
Of course you know that, but it doesn't fit your narrative so you attempted to downplay it. I understand. Really, I get it. It's okay.
The FBI agents are well educated on how to identify signs of deceit during an interview.
BTW, Kavanaugh demonstrated every one of them during his hearing last Thursday.
Doesn't matter if they think someone is deceitful. In a background investigation, they write down what the person tells them whether they believe it or not.
If they get contradictory info, they write that down.
Its up to the people receiving the report to draw a conclusion from what they write down.
You will not see an FBI background investigation that says someone was lying based on what two or more different people said.
You would only see that if there was something like a police report to prove they lied.
Well they did the expanded background investigation per the agreement with the Democrats. But I'm sure the Democrats will continue to act like they never agreed to this. Par for the course for Democrats.
Actually the Senate Committee, per Grassley, sent over to the White House the terms of the FBI investigation. (I believe Trump stated later they could investigate whoever they wanted). Anyhow, the democrats knew the terms of the investigation and they agreed. So all this blah blah blah is just the democrats trying to stall again. I don't know how DiFi looks at herself in the mirror.
The way I look at this is, if Kavanaugh is confirmed, he probably won't last on the court as long as the conservatives would like, because he'll probably meet an early demise from cirrhosis of the liver. Or some other alcohol-related death.
Which of you democrats will volunteer to be Kavanaugh's food taster? Should have done that for Scalia long ago.
Ford's attorney said they would turn over her notes on the condition Ford was interviewed by the FBI...
...knowing full well the FBI has concluded their investigation and are using Ford's sworn testimony
It's just more BS for show..........
Wow ... you just took my post and not only snipped it but removed words from the quoted sentence to make it appear that I was using "established" to refer to the FBI investigation NOT to "honesty." Creative truncation at its worst.
How very ironic that I was saying there wasn't much honesty to go around.

So is that a matter of her not now being heard (sham investigation) or what she should have done in the beginning (fully support to the best of her ability any accusation that she brings forward)?
Plenty to criticize both ways. And so we do ...

The FBI would've been able to sniff out Kavanaugh's lies or deceit, which is why Trump/White House did not allow the FBI to interview both he and Ford.
This would be why Kavanaugh would not affirmatively agree to an FBI interview and why the WH limited the scope of the investigation to not interview Kavanaugh.
Kavanaugh has had 7 FBI background investigations on him and everything he has said during the confirmation is under oath.

Unless 2 of Flake, Collins, Murkowski are going to take into account, among other things, news reports of people saying Kavanaugh misrepresented his drinking habits and lied to the Senate Judiciary Committee, this is a done deal. Only the fallout will be left.

And probably an impeachment from the House once the Dems take it back in November. Won't clear the senate, though.
But Kav's seat will forever be tainted, which is the best dems can do at this point.
