I don’t think he’s going to be confirmed based on what I’m hearing. They basically didn’t do anything in this report at all that is going to make anyone on the fence feel better
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.
The idea that you would encourage that thought makes you one sick individual.
You must be joking. One accuser ignored. Many witnesses ignored. An "investigation" hurried along in three days proves it's a sham on its face. It's really sad to see the president abuse the FBI by ordering them to do a flawed and incomplete report on purpose.
Which accuser was ignored? If you're talking about the last "accuser" only a complete idiot OR an ambulance chasing TDS infected Creepy Porn Lawyer would believe anything that person said given the many contradictions and outright falsehoods she AND her lawyer spewed.
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.
Lying to Congress is no big deal. Attorney General Sessions did it. ("Oh, those Russian meetings. I thought you meant ...") Lots of folks do it. Why not? No consequences involved.
However, lying to the FBI is a felony carrying a potential five year prison sentence.
Now how in the world could a guy serving a prison sentence be expected to fulfill his responsibilities as a Justice on the Supreme Court?
Here's the underlying message from Trump and the Republicans:
ANY woman who has been assaulted or raped will be subject to ridicule, slander, blamed and disbelieved. The conservative motto is "Good girls stay quiet."

Now you're just making things up. He was questioned - vigorously - under oath. Not just in the one you hearing you watched but in previous hearings - both private and public - plus an extensive list of questions from committee members (over 1000 of them) and finally one on one interviews with each member as they so chose. Go check out the Senate Judiciary Committee site to see the timeline of interviews, hearings, etc and you'll see just how many times Democrats simply didn't choose to exercise their options to gain further information from Kavanaugh.

Can't have that now, can we?
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.
Mitch McConnell went out of his way this morning to ensure that the press could not even be in a physical position to see which senators are entering the room and reviewing the FBI report.
There's a good chance that the American people will NOT be able to see the FBI report, and also a good chance that we won't even know WHO reviewed the report.
