      Asked if he supports having a vote on Friday, Flake told @ArletteSaenz, “Depends on where we are with the FBI investigation. The agreement was that we wouldn’t have a cloture vote until the report was filed.”

      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

          Flake just needs to stop dragging this and do what his conscious has been telling him to do since Friday, vote NO.

          What Dem filibuster? I assume you were using "filibuster" metaphorically, but it's Flake, Collins, and Murkowski who are holding up the nomination.

          https://twitter.com/ex67t20/status/1047080443248631809?s=21 … Did @JeffFlake say he couldn’t confirm a liar? Based on Kavanaugh’s 2003 tasking from FedSoc’s Joel Pardue regarding media outreach to Family Research Council, etc., it looks like Kavanaugh lied to @SenatorDurbin in 2004 about FedSoc’s “platform.” @ilyseh

          FUN FACT: If McConnell gets Rs to invoke cloture Fri based on the *prospect* the FBI rpt will satisfy them… but then some Rs see the rpt & refuse to vote Y to confirm Kavanaugh til the FBI investigates more… at that point there's no way to delay the vote to let that happen… 1/ https://twitter.com/mkraju/status/1047109130257911809 …

          Where can one get clarity on the status of FBI interviews for Dr. Ford & Judge Kavanaugh? The WH must agree that the FBI as an unbiased body must interview them

          Flake will be ready or he will never “work” in politics again. And by “work” I don’t mean actual work. He has the reputation of being extremely lazy.
