Democratic Senator Calls FBI's Background Check of Brett Kavanaugh 'Fake,' Wants Answers

At least one Democratic Senator, Rhode Island’s Sheldon Whitehouse, has not forgotten how the FBI dropped the ball, and in a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland, Whitehouse called on Garland to help investigate “how, why, and at whose behest” the FBI mounted what Whitehouse called a “fake” investigation into Kavanaugh’s alleged history of sexual misconduct and assault.

In 2016, Kavanaugh reported having between $60,000 and $200,000 in debt accrued over three credit cards and a loan. Each credit card held between $15,000 and $50,000 in debt, and a Thrift Savings Plan loan was between $15,000 and $50,000.

The credit card debts and loan were either paid off or fell below the reporting requirements in 2017, according to the filings, which do not require details on the nature or source of such payments. [White House spokesman Raj Shah] told The Post that Kavanaugh’s friends reimbursed him for their share of the baseball tickets and that the judge has since stopped purchasing the season tickets.

Again, the FBI never investigated Kavanaugh because Trump never requested it. They literally did a simple "background check", the same kind you can buy online for 30 bucks.

That was all that was requested so that's all that they provided.

I'm still wondering how the hell he suddenly shit a million dollars to pay off all the huge debts he had. Fuck whatever he did in highschool, that's what the FBI needs to investigate.

I'd like to see them do a real background check on Kavanaugh and then impeach his sorry as and kick him off the surpreme court.

Sen. Sheldon White House is a pretty good guy. I've watched him for a while now. He's come out of no where at the right moment and gut punched them, or hit them between the eyes at the right time.

He hit back hard during the Amy hearing when Diane Feinstein was screwing things up with Lindsey Graham when they rubber stamping her on the bench. He was the one guy who really put them in their place right to their faces in front of the world on live TV, and boy did he do a masterful job of it.

Sen. Sheldon White House is a pretty good guy.

Yeah. I like him a lot too. He was really lighting into Director Wray of the FBI about how on earth the FBI took the warning signs of January 5th so lightly.

I don't think Sheldon is anywhere near done with Wray.

That's the old white haired guy right? If so yeah I like him alot. He almost always says things right to the damn point and people stammer over and over trying to bullshit their way to an answer.

 

[Gomez Adams]

That's the old white haired guy right?

Yes. It's this guy:



And to the best of my knowledge, he's as good as they come.

Man put a fedora on him and give him a whip and he could be Indiana Jones' brother.

He’s right.

It’s means we have an Oligarchy in control of our government, our country, our political structure, and our democracy is no longer working. It’s being short circuited at the top.

it’s rigged. There is no freedom. We are all just cogs in a machine supporting the upper 1%

 

[Gomez Adams]

it’s rigged. There is no freedom.

It's Russia. It's exactly like Russia.

Figure the odds.
