BRETT KAVANAUGH/FBI/SENATE/SEX ABUSE/SUPREME COURT/TRUMP PEOPLE: “Several people with information related to allegations of sexual misconduct against U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh say they have tried in vain to speak with the FBI, which is expected to wrap up its investigation this week. Under pressure, U.S. President Donald Trump ordered the FBI investigation following a dramatic Senate hearing last week in which university professor Christine Blasey Ford detailed a sexual assault she says was carried out by Kavanaugh and his friend, Mark Judge, at a high school party in 1982. However, the White House gave the FBI a deadline of Friday [10-5-18] to provide the results of a week-long inquiry into the allegations – all of which Kavanaugh has vehemently denied. The FBI has already interviewed Judge, who has denied any memory of such an incident, as well as at least three other people with information about the allegations made by Ford and a second accuser, Deborah Ramirez.”
