Majority Leader Mitch McConnell meanwhile set in motion a process
designed to lead to a procedural vote on Kavanaugh's nomination on
Friday, that would possibly lead to a final vote as early as the

The Kavanaugh Bargain
Now that they have brought the glorious FBI into the equation, you have to ask yourself if there might be some kind of negotiation taking place behind the scenes which revolves around the Carter Page FISA court application and all those Comey, McCabe and Strzok emails Trump wanted released.
