This sets up a tricky bit of maneuvering for McConnell. He would like to file cloture Wednesday, setting up Friday vote to end Dem filibuster. But if FBI report is not done then, Flake is signaling he won’t be ready to vote. FBI has told senators it believes it can finish by Fri

I see a ruckus approaching, and it's going to arrive on Friday.

I think they should put together all the info, go through it all & make a decent decision.

Yeah but it's ridiculous to have a vote right after the FBI files its report. What really needs to happen is we have to have another hearing first.
-
No more hearings.
-
Yep. Another hearing. What the hell is the FBI gathering all this together for if it isn't going to be used? This of course should have been done first before the half-ass hearing that we had. McConnell has turned this into a circus trying to jam this guy through quick.
-
If the report shows nothing new then nothing to discuss. VOTE
-
And if it does then hold a new hearing.
-
I am sure the committee is capable of talking about the additional info by themselves without a circus.
-
Don't even know what that means. The only thing they are going to do now is McConnell is going to hold a vote either BEFORE the FBI issues its report or he's going to hold one quickly after it. No one is going to "talk" about anything. And he'll lose Flake, Collins and Murkowski.
-
He's not voting before the FBI report comes back. That's ridiculous. It's probably going to be finished today so Friday is likely for the vote. Gives the committee two days to discuss the findings.
