After Reopening FBI Probe, Trump Promises Kavanaugh Will Be Recognized as a ‘Truly Great Justice’ on SCOTUS

President Donald Trump announced the start of an FBI investigation into his Supreme Court nominee, Judge Brett Kavanaugh, while praising Kavanaugh as one day being a “truly great Justice.”

Trump called the FBI probe the “7th” FBI investigation on Kavanaugh.

On September 27, both Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford shared their testimony before members of the Senate Judiciary Committee and a sex crimes prosecutor.

Ford accused Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her decades ago during a high school gathering. She claimed he pinned her to the bed and attempted to remove her clothes while putting his hand over her mouth when she tried to scream.

Ford wrote Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) a letter in July to describe the allegations.

“I categorically and unequivocally deny this allegation. I did not do this back in high school or at any time,” Kavanaugh said in defense to the accusation.

Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) announced to the Senate Judiciary Committee during Friday’s committee vote that he would vote to move Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Senate floor but requested an FBI investigation and a one-week delay on a floor vote.

Trump responded following the committee’s 11-10 vote to push Kavanaugh’s confirmation to a full Senate vote and call for an FBI probe:

Trump ordered a limited, weeklong FBI investigation into the accusations made against Kavanaugh.

The president also praised his SCOTUS pick when he announced the FBI investigation, saying that Kavanaugh will “someday be recognized as a truly great Justice of The United States Supreme Court!”

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders also released a statement from the president on Friday:

Trump chose Kavanaugh as the Supreme Court nominee and has backed his choice. He has also previously opposed FBI investigations:

Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) released a statement on Friday afternoon about the FBI investigation:

“The Senate Judiciary Committee will request that the administration instruct the FBI to conduct a supplemental FBI background investigation with respect to the nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to be an Associate Justice on the Supreme Court.

The supplemental FBI background investigation would be limited to current credible allegations against the nominee and must be completed no later than one week from today.”

People will now be waiting to see whether or not the investigation finds evidence of any wrongdoing on the part of Kavanaugh and if the voting will only be delayed a week.

Rosie O’Donnell Calls for Trump Assassination… REGRETS IT IMMEDIATELY!

Rosie O’Donnell and Donald Trump have been engaged in a bitter feud for over a decade. Rosie’s hatred for Trump has only escalated since he became president, but this week, she took things way too far when she called for him to be assassinated. It didn’t take long for Rosie to learn that she’d made a huge mistake… Mad World News reported that Rosie took to Twitter on Saturday to endorse a ridiculous new game called Push Trump Off A Cliff Again. The despicable game allows players to kill Trump by pushing him off a cliff. Push Trump Off A Cliff Again https://t.co/YguB3aG8EP — ROSIE (@Rosie) July 15, 2017 The virtual game instructs players to “Take out your frustrations with [the] President by pushing him off a virtual cliff, or into a virtual volcano.” An image of Trump screams things like “Bye!” and “I’m really rich!” as he tumbles to his death. Twitter users immediately fired back at Rosie and let her know that simulating the assassination of the president is never okay. Bett...

Dan Bongino: Trump’s Daytona 500 Appearance ‘Had All the Things Liberals Can’t Stand’

Image
It’s no wonder liberal heads exploded. President Donald Trump’s turn as grand marshal of the Daytona 500 had plenty of Americans talking on Sunday – whether they were in Florida for the race or watching it at home. And in an interview with Fox News’ “Fox & Friends” on Monday, former Secret Service Agent and outspoken commentator Dan Bongino could barely restrain himself from laughing at the liberal reaction. “You want to talk about liberal heads exploding, just look at this amalgamation of things in this pot,” Bongino said. “You had patriotism. You had fast cars. You had American muscle. You had pride, love of America, President Trump. I mean, all these things liberals can’t stand. This was just like a great day. “And the singing of the national anthem beforehand. This was such a phenomenal event.” Dan Bongino: 'Liberal heads exploded' watching Trump at Daytona 500 https://t.co/qdjdcLIGxO — Jimmy Lee (@CEOJimmyLee) February 17, 2020 Naturally, what sane people t...

WALSH: Yes, Ilhan Omar’s Alleged Adultery Matters. Here’s Why.

According to court documents, Rep. Ilhan Omar allegedly had an affair with a married DC consultant. The wife of Omar’s alleged lover made the claims in divorce filings, insisting that her marriage was ultimately destroyed by the tryst between the congresswoman and her husband. Previous reports claimed that Omar “dumped” her own husband earlier in the summer. Conventional modern wisdom would tell us that the only newsworthy and relevant aspect of this salacious story is the possible abuse of campaign funds, as reported by the Washington Examiner: Omar’s alleged paramour, Tim Mynett, has been a fundraising consultant for Omar’s 2018 and 2020 campaigns… …Of the $145,406 reported earnings by the E Street Group during the 2018 campaign cycle, $62,674 came from Omar’s campaign. Not counting payroll taxes and transfers to Minnesota’s Democratic Party, E Street Group was Omar’s second-largest vendor, according to FEC data. From Labor Day through the end of the year, E Street Group ate up mo...
