Kavanagh provably lied about:
The drinking age in Maryland
Not having any legacy connections at Yale
That Blasey Ford was “not in his social circle” when she dated a good friend of his
The meaning of words in his yearbook
That there were never social gatherings on weekdays
And too many more things to list
Ford provably lied about:
Seems like Comey would be in as good a position as anyone to offer a reliable comment on this topic.
It does not appear that Comey was aware of NBC’s scoop before writing the op ed.
“they can speak to scores of people in a few days”
â‰
“a list of approved interviewees” (four of them)
The rest of those scores of interviews might have come closer to settling this question. As it is, it’s hard to see why the FBI would take even a week: if you can’t follow up on any leads, then just interview the four people this weekend and write up the report, I guess. Box checked, no risk of actually finding anything important.
I think they FBI could find away around sloppily phrased and stupid “restrictions” imposed by WH. Assuming such restrictions are legal in the first place, which they probably are not.
Is there any discovery which, if made within Trump’s limitations, would allow the FBI to then go outside Trump’s limitations?
Okay, so we’ve heard the opinion of the former FBI director. Has the current FBI director made a statement? Two completely contradictory things are being reported – all media are reporting that the FBI investigation is being hamstrung AND trump is saying they have free rein. Which is it? I can’t imagine the FBI can go all week with such an obvious contradiction in place.
If I were the current FBI Director, I would avoid any public statements and let the agents follow where the facts lead.
Well if the reporting is correct and the investigation is going to be limited to interviewing just 4 witnesses this is just another SHAM put forward by tRump… of course the FBI is not going to have too much trouble interviewing 4 witnesses
We deserve to know what the scope of this investigation will be. Can we please get some reporting on WTF is going on with this “limited” investigation
He lied about Miranda and not knowing the creepy judge was creepy.
The idea of “obvious lies” was brought up by one of the senators during the hearing (I forget which one). He specifically asked Kavenaugh if he knew what “Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus” meant. It is a Latin phrase meaning “false in one thing, false in everything.” It is a legal principle that a witness who testifies falsely about one matter is not credible to testify about any matter.
Kavanaugh absolutely lied about the legal drinking age in MD - why hasn’t more been made about that fact? His performance at the hearing had an “ick” factor off the charts. Totally does not have the credibility or temperament to be any kind of judge, let alone on the SC. Isn’t that painfully obvious?
Comey’s words, “Significance drives memory.” explain a great deal about the situation with Dr. Ford. This was a one-time, traumatic event for her. For Kavanaugh, the behavior may not have been that unusual - hence, limited memory.
In light of what we know about the limitations on this investigation, I do not know how to read this story, other than the GOP does know. And that we are the ones mistsken.
And also he was plastered. 
Comey is an excellent and insightful writer. If he had written out his thoughts in novel form before making his decisions to do the press conference on HRC emails or release the 10/28 letter, I think he would’ve come to a different conclusion.
Yes, and unless someone has contrived to staff the investigation entirely with reliable operatives from the NY field office, I’ll bet that a significant chunk of the agents involved in the investigation does not at all approve of what Trump has said of, or done to, the Bureau.
Hey now Mr Comey … I thought it was democrats who wanted the FBI to probe deep into Kavanaugh’s background to find that one nugget that would disqualify him. I thought it was the repubs who wanted a short shallow and ineffectual exercise with which to cover their asses.
Now, as before the election in 2016, you have confused me.
I’m hoping the FBI will find out whateverthefuck they want to find out. And fuck the White House “restrictions.”
Take the chance that the former reality TV show host will demand that you get fired for learning the truth about an entitled, alcoholic, gambling-addicted, asshole, lying, rapist nominee for a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court.
Oh yeah - he’s a whiny little bitch, too, which should in itself be enough reason for the FBI types to want to kick his ass.
