I think we do. It’s called hearsay.
Its called the White House actively suppressing the ability of the FBI to conduct a proper investigation!

Given the resources available to the FBI, 8 or 9 interviews extended over a 7 day window just doesn't cut it - especially when neither Kavanaugh nor Ford were amongst those questioned!

I suspect that the New York Times and the Washington Post are already investigating what the Trump Administration was trying to hide - "Kavanaugh-gate" will become yet another in a long list of self-inflicted scandals!

Justice Kavanaugh!
It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings. The next opus in the opera is the song, Impeach Kavanaugh! However, that song depends on the D's regaining a majority after mid terms. Doesn't seem likely.

You can always bring your case to the Supreme Court. ;)

And another waste of time. You need 2/3rds of the Senate to unseat an impeached justice.

Yeah, the FBI, they just love Trump. :ebil:

Apparently the FBI investigators were less than happy with the restrictions imposed on them and the embarrassment of being associated with a "fixed" inquiry!

They are leaving enough of a "paper trail" that congressional committees will be able to follow should the Democrats regain control of the House after the 2018 Interims.

I keep hearing this from Dems but there is no truth to the talking points. The FBI conducted a supplemental and interviewed everyone mentioned in committee and many others.

Are you refering to when Jesus Cleanses the Temple?

Mathew 21:31
12 Then Jesus went into the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those selling doves. 13 And He declared to them, “It is written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer.’ But you are making it ‘a den of robbers.’”

Jeremiah 7:11 "Is this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, even I have seen it, saith the LORD."

1 Peter 4:17 "For it is time for judgment to begin with God's household; and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who do not obey the gospel of God?"

Are you claiming to be Jesus? Or perhaps it's only your sarcasm detector is malfunctioning. Might want to get that checked.

All I did was quote you scripture. I did not add any of my own thoughts or opinions. But I will still answer your question. Of course we are not Jesus, we are the Bride of Christ. We are to have the Mind of Christ. Also we are the Church of Christ. We are to be disciples or followers of Jesus.

Jesus lived His life as an example for us to follow. He went about preaching, teaching and healing the sick. That is what we are to do. We should be able to demonstrate the Power of God when we pray for people. Miracles and healing should follow after us and if not then people should not believe what we say if we can not demonstrate the power of God.

If the Republicans had known how much "baggage" that Kavanaugh was bringing to the nomination, does anyone seriously think that he would have been their first choice!

This controversy will follow Kavanaugh and the Republicans decades - it will serve as a rallying cry for women combating wealthy, white, male entitlement as demonstrated by no women on the GOP Senate Judicial Committee!

How can the Republicans claim to have had the FBI conduct a credible investigation without the 2 major protagonists, Kavanaugh and Ford, being interviewed?

And what did Jesus say his new commandment was? Oh and does this "we" you speak of produce any evidence of the fruit of the Spirit?

Baggage? He had six previous FBI investigations.

Probably because days earlier they gave oral and written sworn testimony in committee? What was the FBI going to do? Show them their statements and say do you really really swear this is true?

Neil Gorsuch was confirmed last year with none of this controversy - obviously somebody didn't conduct a proper background check when Kavanaugh was being vetted for this position!

Irrespective of Kavanaugh's judicial credentials, no political party wants to endure this kind of "political grief" that the Republicans have experienced over the last few weeks - especially with the 2018 Interim Elections just a month away!

The lack of racial and gender diversity amongst Republican politicians/supporters are 2 of their major problems - the last thing the GOP leadership wants is to draw prolonged public attention to those deficiencies!

The last thing Republicans want is this kind of extended drama over a Supreme Court pick - especially when the 2018 Interims are only a month away!
Well the Democrats were not going to make the same mistake they did with Gorsuch.

"34A new commandment I give you:Love one another. As I have loved you, so also youmust love one another. 35By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another.” John 13:34

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control." Galations 5

"Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire." Matthew 7:19
