    To say the FBI doesn't come to conclusions so you don't need FBI investigations is like saying MRIs don't come to conclusions so you don't need MRI scans. The purpose is to surface information so others can make judgments.

    Again, the GOP held the Scalia seat vacant for over a year. Now a week is an unacceptable delay. None of this is remotely on the level.

    Is Kavanaugh going to ask all the Republican senators about their drunk history? He might be surprised to discover the Mormon members of the Committee have never had a drink.

    If a woman or minority had an opening statement like that, they would be labeled hysterical and deranged. If you cannot see that as a white man--God love ya.

    People have been saying this my entire 14-year career and literally the only reason I have a career is that I ignored them

    First Great Britain. Now Germany. All to defend a lie that the entire world knows is a lie.
