      Just in: After Senate Republican leaders agreed to delay Judge Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation vote, Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley has formally requested that the White House conduct a “supplemental FBI background check."

      Grassley gave a deadline, saying “the supplemental FBI background investigation would be limited to current credible allegations against the nominee and must be completed no later than one week from today.”

          1 week. Ok, here is my question, does senate have authorities over FBI to tell them how to do their job?

          “Current”. Looks like they’re afraid of what will be found.

          Hi Bubblehead. Let me educate you. They are “afraid” other Left Wing nut job women will crawl out the sewer with bullshit accusations in an attempt to cash in on GoFundMe.

          What's the matter Grassley? Afraid of all the other credible claims you have worked to silence?

          There hasn’t been a single credible claim, Bubblehead. This FBI investigation should be over fast.

          A “TOTAL AND COMPLETE” @FBI investigation without conditions and limitations is what is required to clear this “TREMENDOUS” mess. These old, outdated men should stop wasting people’s money and time. They sure are afraid of what the FBI will find in #Kavanaugh’s past

          Dems are all for the FBI investigating Kavanaugh but don’t want the FBI anywhere near Hillary... hmmm. Wonder why that is?

          Quit “What About”! Things don’t always have to be narrowed to Dems & Reps, and “What about Hillary?”. We want persons who are 99% above board; who aren’t susceptible to blackmails. BTW, investigating #Kavanaugh isn’t a conclusion that he’s guilty of the accusation(s) against him

          You are correct. An FBI investigation wouldn’t conclude anything. They would present the 302’s to the committee who would have to interpret. There still is no evidence that has been presented against him. All has been refuted.

          Well Begs the question then! Who in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit issued BK his licence and when are they going to rescind it? I find it incredible that BK is a judge!

          Now I remember why I don’t listen to your news. It has a liberal leaning. Today your reporting on Flake lacked truth.

          I truly hope Chuckie the "Grass Man," gets a good plowing from this FBI investigation. Maybe the investigation will ram it on home to the Chuckster.pic.twitter.com/c8X8ktwQRZ
