The Guardian: FBI facing allegation that its 2018 background check of Brett Kavanaugh was “fake”
A Democratic senator has asked attorney general Merrick Garland to facilitate “proper oversight” into concerns on the investigation
This is a rather explosive allegation from Senator Whitehouse, it “appears to have been a politically-constrained and perhaps fake FBI investigation into alleged misconduct by now-Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, rather than what Director Wray promised.”
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse says the FBI essentially did a fake background check on Brett Kavanaugh. FBI never interviewed Ford or Kavanaugh, refused to turn over to Congress any info from tip line the FBI created.
If true, Wray must be fired. https://t.co/BQ4dJX9h1P
