As Republicans rushed out to announce the completion of the FBI investigation into sexual assault allegations against Brett Kavanaugh, and Democrats pointed out that the “investigation” had been hamstrung by the White House and included interviews with a tiny handful of people while dozens of others waited for an FBI call that never came, Twitter responded. Holes in the Republican story about what this report is and says were identified.
xIf Grassley believed the report was exonerating, he would have a copy in every reporter's hand. This is such a farce. https://t.co/PXzIifrbJn
