FBI Reviewing Secret Kavanaugh Document

On Thursday California Senator Dianne Feinstein announced she had received a document concerning Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and had forwarded the matter to the FBI. Democrats are calling for Feinstein to make the document public, but she has refused to do so citing a promise to keep a confidentiality agreement.

“I have received information from an individual concerning the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court,” Feinstein said in a statement. “That individual strongly requested confidentiality, declined to come forward or press the matter further, and I have honored that decision. I have, however, referred the matter to federal investigative authorities.”

Feinstein is the senior minority member on the Senate judiciary committee, which is in charge of holding hearings and investigating nominees to the Supreme Court.

The Intercept first reported the existence of the document on Wednesday. The content of the document is unclear, but it’s believed the document was given to Feinstein by one of her California constituents.

The Intercept reported different sources have told them different versions of the story in the document, but one consistent theme is that the document describes an encounter in high school between Kavanaugh and a female student.

Also according to the Intercept, the woman who is the subject of the document is now being represented by Debra Katz, a whistleblower attorney who works with #MeToo survivors. Katz’s firm has refused to comment on the matter.

Democrats are frustrated by Feinstein’s decision to keep the document private and want to view the document themselves so as to jointly decide whether the document be made public, and not leave that decision to Feinstein.

    If the woman doesn’t want her name or things that would identify her.. its frustrating but it protects her.
    People who have come forward are treated horribly.

      Karyn Succi you say my immorality is disgraceful. Pull you head out of your butt and look at all the crap that is flowing around, smearing good people and inciting violence just because some people do not like the way others think and believe. You sound like a true democrat and one who still believes Obama and Hillary walk on water. Do you actually believe those two were clean even after all the proof that has been found on them. I don’t know what your smoking but if I were you I would give it up.

      Diane Waks I sort of agree with you but if you’re not going to back up your claim why make it

    3. Joelle Cannon September 13, 2018

      Diane Waks I mean how do they prove something really happened

    4. Diane Waks September 13, 2018

      Joelle Cannon I agree with you. The problem is that these guys are very conniving. They do it in a way that makes it so it’s that’s it their word against the victim. I know I personally dealt with a situation where a guy I worked with would say “I had a dream about you last night” he would always say when no one was around. I later found he doing the same thing to other girls in the office. It wasn’t until a customer complained about him that the company fired him for sexual harassment.

    5. Joelle Cannon September 13, 2018

      Diane Waks oh wow. Yes they are conniving.

    The DNC wouldn’t even support this old hag so what’s she doing? It’s obvious! She going to be “nasty”, “disruptive” and “brave” like the others (ex: harris, blumenthal and booker during the hearings who made damn fools of themselves) in an attempt to get her old ass elected again. If Cali voters keep electing reps like waters, feinstein, pelosi, schitt, etc., then they deserve everything they DON’T get because these people will line their pockets, which they have, instead of representing their constituents. They can promise anything, like free healthcare for all – but the can’t tell you how they’d pay for it because they can’t pay for it.
    Before voters go to the polls I would say they should ask themselves what has these 4 democrats (actually all dems) done to help Cali and the Californian people!
    Vote Red if you want to save our country from a socialist/communist society that they are trying to move America into. 0 didn’t complete his mission but they weren’t worried; the fix was in for hrc; but the American people stood up and said hell no to this corrupt bitch. Hrc would have relished in the title but 0, a hand full of elitists, crooked politicians would have been in control and they would have destroyed our beautiful country. They would have made America Venezuela or Cuba!
    Think about your children, grandchildren and beyond – do you really want a life of hardship for them. Because those who are grandmothers now won’t have to face the decisions we voters make in January. But do you want them to suffer even after your gone for the decisions their parents or grandparents?
    I wouldn’t! I love my grandson more than that.
