"'It's A White House Whitewash": Accusations Of Kavanaugh COVER UP*
'It's a White House Whitewash': Accusations of Kavanaugh Cover-Up as Dems Demand Release of Trump's FBI Directive. "The Trump party will set aside decency- and respect for survivors and women everywhere- to install the man the Kochs want on our Court, backed by dark money ads juicing up GOP voters. It's a very sad day for our country and the Court." Common Dreams, Oct. 4, 2018.
Calling the FBI's investigation a "whitewash" that could also represent a "cover-up" orchestrated by the White House, Democratic lawmakers and Brett Kavanaugh's critics were outraged Thursday as they demanded full transparency regarding how the probe was carried out and denounced Republicans for trying to spin the resulting report as sufficient.
"Initial reports about the brief FBI investigation of sexual assault allegations reek of a whitewash as the Senate scrambles to fill the Supreme Court seat before facing voters in November," said Common Cause President Karen Hobert Flynn in a statement.
"The results of the FBI investigation into Dr. Christine Blasey Ford's accusations against Brett Kavanaugh are for lack of a better word: bullshit," said Shaunna Thomas, co-founder of UltraViolet. "Investigations are always stacked against survivors, but this investigation was designed to gaslight America from the start. It was intentionally designed to find nothing."
Elizabeth Warren ✔ @SenWarren Not even a full week for an FBI investigation. A single copy of the report given to the Senate. Less than an hour to review. This is a complete sham. @SenateMajLdr McConnell said he’d plow Brett Kavanaugh through, and that’s exactly what the GOP is doing – no matter the cost. 8:38 AM - Oct 4, 2018
