galvanize the base. he is promising to reinvestigate kavanaugh if democrats take control. let me get your thoughts on that. do you support an investigation of now justice kavanaugh? and what would be the focus for you? thank you, ayman, for your question. i m a former prosecutor. i ve never seen a law enforcement or background investigation where they don t actually interview their accuser or the person being accused. so this fbi investigation really was a whitewash. i m on the house judiciary committee. if we flip the house, we will look at the witnesses and interview them. and we will subpoena the relevant documents and see where the evidence takes as you say no mincing words there. the senate democrat and judiciary member chris coons was asked about impeachment. to listen his zblons house democrats are talking about reinvestigating kavanaugh, possibly looking at impeachment.
wild mob is ridiculous. it s amazing to see how we allow to get angry and use that as a sign of passion instead of frustration. the impact of the kavanaugh fight goes beyond politics really to the future of the supreme court and the perception of the fbi in the wake of the investigation as well has become a punch line, literally. watch this. here s what a law and order episode based on this investigation would look like. we found your fingerprints on the handle of the cabinet underneath the kitchen sink. i have no idea what you re talking about? you re free to go. [ laughter ] hi! cinturones por favor. gracias. opportunity is everywhere. it s gonna be fine. it s a door. it s doing a lot of kicking down there. waiting to be opened. whatever your ambition.
misstatements made by judge kavanaugh while he sat in front of the senate judiciary committee, the department of justice likely has all those names and information. even though the fbi wasn t able to do to conduct those interviews, they ve got them, and i imagine that will come out at some point over time. including the former classmate of brett kavanaugh at yale who has come out and said that the judge lied while he was testifying there. katy, i know there are reports that at one point president trump was allowing a more expansive investigation, but it was don mcgahn who stepped in to keep this into a very limited role and confine the fbi s investigation. what do we know about how involved the house was in actually defining and controlling the fbi s investigation? so it s interesting what you say about mcgann. he did say no. we also know that mcgann told judge kavanaugh that what he
happened in this particular matter. the fbi, while some have said the fbi did a comprehensive investigation, they did not do a comprehensive verification. they didn t do a comprehensive investigation because they didn t interview the alleged victim or the alleged perpetrator. but they didn t do a comprehensive investigation not because they couldn t, they didn t have the ability, because they certainly could. they didn t do it because they were restricted from doing it. they certainly would have interviewed those people if this was an investigation about that particular incident. what happens is the fbi is akin to a contractor. and the white house is the client. and they provided specific investigative steps for the fbi to take. they did that they were told to do. when they came back and provided information to the department of justice and to the white house, they weren t able to do any additional investigation. i can tell you that there are a lot of people who have come forward with
what do you make of those pledging coming from some house democrats? i think that s premature. there s only ever been one justice that s been impeached, and talking about it isn t mugabe us forward. i know that you are for an investigation and try to subpoena the documents that were behind the communications from the white house, limiting the scope of the fbi background investigation. but will you support, would you support an impeachment effort if your party controls the house? i agree with senator coons. impeachment is pretty premature. we have to base it on the facts and evidence and the law. but because the fbi did not do that, because the white house restricted that kind of investigation, it is incumbent on congress to do the investigation that the fbi was not allowed to do. do you think that the calls
