People 'familiar with the process' suggest the FBI's Kavanaugh probe is rapidly ending - but senators are now ready to fight over whether it was adequate and how much of it should be published.

  • Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is trying to steer Kavanaugh's nomination through the Senate to a first vote on Friday
  • The probe is rapidly coming to a close, the Wall Street Journal reported
  • But new rows over secrecy and the adequacy of the probe are looming with McConnell saying it will be seen only by senators
  • Chuck Schumer, the Dmeocratic senate minority leader, demanded it be published in full and that senators are briefed by the lead FBI agent
  • And attorneys for all three accusers have complained about it, with Christine Blasey Ford's writing to the FBI director saying she has not spoken to agents
  • To move ahead McConnell needs support of two of three Republicans, including Sen. Susan Collins, who wants FBI to interview third accuser
  • Sen. Jeff Flake also has expressed reservations about scope of FBI background investigation of Kavanaugh

The FBI's probe into allegations of sex attacks by Brett Kavanaugh could be finished as early as Tuesday night or Wednesday, sources said Tuesday afternoon.
The Wall Street Journal reported that people 'familiar with the process' believed the investigation could wrap very soon, saying Tuesday night and Wednesday morning were possible.
Agents have spoken to four people involved in the allegations, the newspaper reported.
One of those is Mark Judge, the high school friend of Kavanaugh who was accused of being in the room when the nominee allegedly tried to rape Christine Blasey Ford, while the other is Debbie Ramirez, the second accuser.
The identities of the other two was unclear.
The possibility of an imminent end to the FBI 'background check' came as Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said there would be a vote on Kavanaugh's nomination this week.
The FBI had been given a deadline of Friday to end its new background investigation.
However the possibility of the investigation coming to an end immediately led to the prospect of a series of new rows - over the release of the report, how senators are presented with it, and crucially, exactly who was questioned.

Why hasn't she been asked: Christine Blasey Ford's attorneys Debra Katz and Michael Bromwich wrote to the FBI warning she had not been contacted at all

Ready for a confrontation: Michael Avenatti, the attorney for third accuser Julie Swetnick, said she had not been contacted by the FBI, while Chuck Schumer, the Senate Minority Leader made clear Tuesday he wanted to see the FBI's results published in full

Concerns: Attorneys for accusers Julie Swetnick and Debbie Ramirez have both said they are unhappy with the Senate Judiciary Committee and the FBI. Ramirez was questioned by agents but her attorney said her list of witnesses has not been acted on. Swetnick has not been contacted by the FBI.

Could this be the final curtain call for this Kabuki theatre we've been watching?

I think maybe, just maybe it is.
