FBI Reached Out To 10 People In Reopened Kavanaugh Probe; No Corroboration Of Sexual Assault Claims
By Tyler Durden / ZeroHedge
White House deputy press secretary Raj Shah told CNN’s “New Day” that the FBI contacted 10 people as part of its reopened investigation into allegations against Brett Kavanaugh, and interviewed nine of them – none of whom corroborated claims levied against the Supreme Court nominee.
Shah added that “Without getting in to the details, we feel very confident that when the senators have the opportunity to review this material, as they’re just beginning to right now, that they are going to be comfortable confirming Judge Kavanaugh” after they see the results of the investigation.
On CNN, White House spox @RajShah45 says FBI “contacted” 10 people as part of its investigation of Kavanaugh. Adds that senators will be “comfortable voting to confirm” him.
Late Wednesday night, Shah confirmed that the White House had received the FBI’s supplemental report, tweeting in a three part statement:
The White House has received the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s supplemental background investigation into Judge Kavanaugh, and it is being transmitted to the Senate. With Leader McConnell’s cloture filing, Senators have been given ample time to review this seventh background investigation. This is the last addition to the most comprehensive review of a Supreme Court nominee in history, which includes extensive hearings, multiple committee interviews, over 1,200 questions for the record and over a half million pages of documents. With this additional information, the White House is fully confident the Senate will vote to confirm Judge Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.” – White House Spokesman Raj Shah
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) confirmed delivery early Thursday morning, where he tweetedthe details of how the document would be handled;
Supplemental FBI background file for Judge Kavanaugh has been received by @senjudiciary Ranking Member Feinstein & I have agreed to alternating EQUAL access for senators to study content from additional background info gathered by non-partisan FBI agents. FBI supplement requested Friday sept 28 by bipartisan group of senators w specific scope of current/credible allegations. Dr Ford & Judge Kavanaugh had opportunity to testify under oath b4 public/cmte to tell senators what they know. This FBI material will b handled per 2009 memorandum of understanding/MOU signed btwn Obama WHCounsel & then-SJC Chairman Leahy. Thats latest memorialization of this “loan agreement” of ExecBranch material. Feinstein, Durbin, Schumer, & others were on SJC in 09 & didnt object.
The hasty completion of the report to the Senate drew the ire of some Democrats, including high-profile attorney Michael Avenatti, who says that the agency did not contact a sufficient number of witnesses in the probe.
“The FBI investigation was no investigation at all. @realDonaldTrump, @senatemajldr and @ChuckGrassley ensured that numerous key witnesses, including six very damaging witnesses I am aware of, were never even interviewed. Their conduct is a disgrace – they never wanted the truth,” Avenatti tweeted Thursday morning.

Earlier in the week after news emerged that the White House was limiting the scope of the FBI review, Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee sent a letter to the Trump administration, urging White House counsel Don McGahn to ensure that there were no limits to the investigation.
“We ask that you confirm that the FBI background investigation will include the allegations of Christine Blasey Ford, Deborah Ramirez and Julie Swetnick and that the FBI will perform all logical steps related to these allegations, including interviewing other individuals who might have relevant information and gathering evidence related to the truthfulness of statements made in relation to these allegations,” wrote the senators.

because kavanaugh was chosen and approved before dr ford brought charges against him, now she and her family need to enter witness protection program
Still think people are missing something here. Woman declares Judge rapes her, left goes wild and demands justice. What could Trump do, which could aid him and be to his advantage? Should he say, as this one man has had an accusation made against him, that Trump will now check the criminal records of those under his power to ensure that this accusation event can’t be repeated and that all are held liable? The Dems should, if they’re the people they make out to be, want this to happen but obviously they won’t because pasts such as Bill Clintons will come to light. If Trump checks the criminal records of the Rep’s and finds other instances of rape or some other crime which haven’t been investigated, then he should have them investigated. He should then demand that the Dem’s do the same. If someone is accused of a crime then surely everyone should be auditted for the same crime or simliliar? If one person got away with it how many others could’ve done too?
they are all more concerned about their unreported income and potential tax liabilities
