Fucking Grassley

for those not watching live, he quickly pushed the roll call right after Flake's comment of his desire to delay the floor vote for up to a week to accommodate an FBI investigation. Feinstein was not even sure what was going on exactly, exclaiming "What?". You could hear it audibly. Then after the committee vote, he abruptly pounded his gavel, and took his ball and went home.

without an FBI investigation. At least that was the gist, though Flake did not come out and say that in front of the panel. At least that was the implication.

Seems subsequently we are learning Flake apparently will not vote yes on the floor without the FBI investigation.
