If This Isn't a Sham Investigation, I Don't Know What Is
05 October 18
s the nation slept, the White House announced that the FBI has completed its investigation into sexual assault allegations against Brett Kavanaugh. Agents were not allowed to interview dozens of people who could provide additional information, including Kavanaugh and Dr. Ford themselves.
The report will now go to the Senate, where McConnell will only allow senators to view the report in a secure location. He also refuses to release the findings, what little they might offer, to the public. Before the investigation was even complete, McConnell began the process for a vote on Kavanaugh.
If this isn't a sham investigation, I don't know what is. In less than a week, Trump, McConnell, and Kavanaugh have managed to make a mockery of the Senate, the FBI, and the Supreme Court. Beyond that, this charade is an insult to the American people.
