I have already posted the evidence they do. Once again this is what happened when Anita Hill brought forth new evidence in the Clarence Thomas confirmation.


Again....

FACT CHECK: Can The Senate Enlist The FBI To Reopen A Kavanaugh Investigation?
https://www.npr.org/2018/09/20/64985...-investigation

Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, could ask President Trump to instruct the FBI to become involved. The bureau reports to him in the organizational structure of the government, and for these purposes acts as a kind of "contractor" for the White House, as former FBI assistant director Ron Hosko told NPR.

"If the White House were to ask the FBI to reopen its file and go conduct the investigation, the FBI could do that," he said. "I think they could do it swiftly, effectively and report back within days."


...That is what happened in 1991 when an attorney named Anita Hill brought allegations about sexual harassment against her former colleague Clarence Thomas, who was under consideration for a seat on the Supreme Court.

Then-Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Joe Biden, D-Del., asked then-President George H.W. Bush to involve the FBI in looking into Hill's accusations.

Bush — a Republican who had nominated Thomas and wanted to confirm him — agreed. The FBI went to work questioning Hill and others, and ultimately the Judiciary Committee convened hearings at which she and Thomas appeared.


Here is Grassley during the Thomas confirmation. Check specifically at 3:10. BTW, Lawrence O'Donnell was a senate staffer and there at time confirmation

Its still not too late to investigate these alleged crimes, Mrs. Ford report to a local Police station where this alleged crime took place. A complaint must be lodged in order for ANY investigation to begin.

You are ignorant. The FBI is quite good at at determining stuff like that.
You are not. Fact free is your forte

And yet nothing turned up in 6 previous FBI background checks on him.

Fact free as usual.

Elections have consequences and so does having a POS like Diane Feinstein on your side trying to manipulate the system.
She has been noting but a glory hound looking to personal attention ever since she damn let the Nightstalker escape by printing his photo in the papers against advised of police, who were on the verge of capturing him.

She is a lot of things, but honorable is not one of them.

There is NO valid reason to investigate this vague complaint by a person who is unwilling to step up and testify under oath.
SHE asked to be hears, the GOP bent over backwards to accommodate her. Now the demands change daily just so the dems can LIE and say they are trying to ignore this. BS.

When the FBI was on a conference call with the senate the other night, asking them questions and trying to see if there was anything here, not one single dem showed up for it.
Why? Because they KNOW there is nothing to it.

ItT is a stall tactic. Nothing more.

Not the same thing.
Simpletons do not understand it.

No one is "manipulating" anything except the rethugs. And the 300 day denial of Merrick Garland.

Figure. You have read nothing about the precedent set by the judiciary committee during the Thomas confirmations.
Or anything I wrote.

Fact free is your name
