Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

      So he wants to move it out of committee without the results of the investigation to spread the pressure around if the FBI finds anything?https://twitter.com/pdmcleod/status/1045732864199864320 …

      Flake WILL vote to move the nomination forward but only on that condition.

      I did not give Jeff Flake enough credit for his ability to weasel out of this vote without taking an actual stand. WELL-PLAYED, SIR.

          #kavanaughvote @KatyTurNBC probably has it right. Possibility of FBI investigation is a shiny object to distract/calm down constituents so they stop putting pressure on senators. If Flake was serious, he wouldn't have voted Kav out.

          Idk- it takes the pressure off him either way. A full floor vote spreads the blame around.

          Hopefully she is not asking Brett to hold her beer. He likes beer a lot
