Jackie Speier: Kavanaugh Investigation a ‘Fig Leaf’ so GOP Can Ram Nomination Through

RUSH EXCERPT:

SPEIER: "I think this investigation is turning into nothing more than a fig leaf so that the Republicans can move forward on what they intended to do all along, which is ram this nomination through. Senator flake was very clear about wanting to make sure that these credible allegations were, in fact, investigated. If one of the principals who has alleged these allegations is not even being interview and that’s the news that we are hearing from news reports, how credible is this investigation? Furthermore, let’s go back to why this all happened. This happened because a woman who wanted to remain anonymous got outed and then she came to Washington to have the onslaught of questions and daggars sent her way and all she came with was the truth. She has taken a lie detector test. Has Judge Kavanaugh agreed to submit to one? No. He has a judicial temperament that is very volatile. That’s not something we want on the Supreme Court."
