Now that the nomination has been voted out of committee, would witnesses be called before the entire Senate or would it be referred back to committee? Or would they just ignore the evidence?

1. I believe if anything fishy shows up

Trump will have to have someone read his prospect list to him again.

2. Probably no smoking gun, but could reveal several Kav lies.

3. the only thing "fishy" that matters is if he ever was a democrat.

*that* might cost him some votes.

anything else will likely be ignored.

these are republicans we're talking about. they already have obvious grounds to see him as entirely unfit for the court, but they are going to vote for him anyway.

4. The FBI could start the investigation by asking his classmates the meaning of the ...

... words and phrases on his yearbook page. If he lied about that, that should be sufficient to disqualify him.

5. Whatever Flake and Murkowski want

nomination is going nowhere without their vote.

6. yep, you're right

They are calling all the shots.
