BRETT KAVANAUGH/FBI/SENATE/SEX ABUSE/SUPREME COURT/TRUMP PEOPLE/WOMEN: “Christine Blasey Ford’s attorneys on Tuesday [10-2-18] implored the FBI to interview her and act on investigative leads they have provided for its inquiry into sexual misconduct allegations against Brett Kavanaugh…The bureau is expected to wrap up its time-limited probe of the allegations against President Donald Trump’s Supreme Court nominee as soon as Wednesday, teeing up a final Senate vote on Kavanaugh later this week as planned by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. The Kentucky Republican also said Tuesday that the FBI’s final report will be available to senators only, not the public. As the time frame for completion of the inquiry draws nearer, Ford’s attorneys sought a call later Tuesday with bureau officials to discuss the investigation. Katz and Bromwich noted in their letter that they had furnished ‘a series of emails and letters in which we identified witnesses and evidence that would likely assist the FBI in its investigation,’ but have yet to hear back.”
