The list includes the former FBI agent who completed the polygraph test; Blasey Ford’s husband, whom she has told about the alleged assault; and several friends Blasey Ford has told about the alleged assault in the past.

    Republican voters appear to be extremely impressed that their senators can’t find something they are working very hard not to see.

  2. If the vote goes forward and K is confirmed without the FBI talking to these witnesses, then we need to hear their story on a national prime-time news show.

    At least then, Donnie won’t be able to hide what they say.

    This fiasco is very heartbreaking! The performance by Flake to bring about the FBI investigation seems to have done more harm than good in the matter of healing the partisan / gender divide in this country. His weak spine does not allow him to go back to the well and demand a complete investigation for his vote.

    I’d like to hear from all these people even if BK goes down in flames. There’s no reason the senators who vote yes should be forgotten.
