Breitbart: The Department of Justice (DOJ) said Monday that the FBI will not investigate the sexual misconduct allegation against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
After refusing to participate in a phone call with Kavanaugh set up by Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA), led by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), Democrats on the Judiciary Committee called on the FBI to investigate high school-era allegations against Kavanaugh.
“In view of the enormity and seriousness of these allegations, a staff-only phone call behind closed doors is unacceptable and Democratic staff will not participate,” Feinstein said in a statement on Monday.
She added that the FBI “has the resources and know-how to conduct an objective, independent evaluation of these sensitive allegations with appropriately trained investigators.”
Senate Minority Leader Schumer (D-NY) is also calling for an FBI investigation.
On Tuesday, Feinstein again called on the FBI to investigate the allegation of a local crime 36 years ago when Kavanaugh was 17 and still in high school.
The DOJ, however, told a reporter for the far-left Politico, “The allegation does not involve any potential federal crime.”
Furthermore, the Associated Press reports that in a statement, the DOJ said late Monday that “it’s not the job of the FBI to judge the significance or the credibility of an accusation.” more here
Oh here we go. I’m telling you, grab your guns.
Sen. Hirono on Kavanaugh: Men Need To “Shut Up,” Accuser Needs To Be Believed And I Believe Her
I’ll bet that rat bastard Comey would have started an investigation anyway.
Copping a feel is not a federal crime? Who would have guessed?
I wonder if MD, which is filled with venomous progs, will make a move? Who wants to focus on murders and other actual crimes, when you can screw with Trump, and US.
Hambone, I was worried that Wray would play along with the charade. Fortunately, the FBI is about 10% less corrupt than it was under Obama, so not every Dem request for a pre-dawn raid is honored now.
Finally something that is not a federal case!
“Brett Kavanaugh physically and sexually assaulted me during high school in the early 1980’s.”
Lesseee here, we got:
No year
No date
No day of the week
No approximate time of day or night
Didn’t tell Mom or Dad
Didn’t tell the Police
Aaaaaaaannnnnd Feinstein now says “I can’t say everything is truthful”
Oakey Dokey then… A little different picture is beginning to emerge here. Could it be this Soros-funded, flaming, hate-filled, bomb-throwing, radical Leftist, psych “perfesser” (with horrible reviews) had her first wrestling match with some psychotropic drugs and something powered with D size batteries?
Now we hear that she’s “not prepared to testify”.
Really??
Oh I see. Maybe she needs a nuther 35 years to hone her fabulous fable…
Federal crime? Oh Hell no!
The good “perfesser” needs to chug on over to Mamby Pamby Land and search for a good deal on a soul!
Jail time for this little tramp, her pussyhat friends, and Planned Parenthood should be in the cards, they are all connected.
FBI can’t touch any of this legally unless the police investigated, fucked it up royally to the point where outside help was needed, or the PD officially asked the FBI for help.
You can’t go straight to the FBI because someone grabbed your booty. City first, then state, then feds. That’s the order. Unless it has something to do with a Federal crime, they won’t be interested.
Besides, the FBI has their own problem right now. They’re about to get their shit declassified, and exposed to the public at large.
I guess every guy who ever tried to get to “second base” is now guilty of a sex crime, and should turn himself in. (the “law” does not apply to gays or lesbians, right Elena Kagen?)
How can you investigate an event when the alleged victim doesn’t know the year, doesn’t know the place, can’t tell you how she got there or how she left, the 2 people she claims were involved swear up and down it didn’t happen, she won’t name other attendees of said get together, the number of people attending keeps changing, her details keep changing and she refuses to testify under oath or allow the accused his opportunity to defend himself. Pretty much sums up why we have a statute of limitations to begin with.
On the off, off, off chance that her allegations are even sort of true, I haven’t seen this addressed – if she was 15 or 16 and he was 16 or 17, wouldn’t he be judged as a “child”, even if it was investigated at the time? We don’t criminalize children for anything except extremely serious crimes. Groping during drunken parties is not even a blip.
I would put my money on the fact that “if” it were true, and he never did such a thing again, he was grievously sorry and decided to clean up his act.
Women probably get felt up more aggressively by the TSA. (Or those x-ray machines) Where’s the FEDS for that?
