Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s last-minute curveball to derail Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings ended in total failure Friday, with the FBI saying they have no plans to open a criminal investigation into the legislator’s mysterious letter.
The left-wing lawmaker suddenly announced this week the existence of a secret letter sent to the FBI regarding Kavanaugh’s nomination; citing the anonymous message as a reason to indefinitely delay the proceedings.
Insiders say Feinstein has had possession of the mysterious material since mid-summer.
“Several officials confirmed that the letter was referred to the FBI. But the bureau does not plan to launch a criminal investigation, according to a person familiar with the matter — a probe that would normally be handled by local authorities if it were within the statute of limitations,” writes the Washington Post.
“Instead, the FBI passed the material to the White House as an update to Kavanaugh’s background check, which already has been completed,” adds the article.
Feinstein said she didn’t want this letter made public so she sits on it for months until right before the vote and then announces it to the world that she is handing it to the FBI. The FBI can’t investigate every political stunt pulled by classless trash like Feinstein. Better to spend their time investigating Feinstein.
And by sitting on the letter for months and not asking one question about it, the obvious trick was to hope the FBI would start an investigation and then pronounce that we can’t possibly have a vote until the investigation is over.
No need to be so condescending. Just saying that Kavanaugh’s hearing went on long enough to lie under oath. It seems to be something of a tradition for Trump appointees.
