THE LATEST: Bernie Sanders Calls for Perjury Probe Against Judge Kavanaugh

posted by Hannity Staff - 10.01.18

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders called for the FBI to investigate whether Judge Brett Kavanaugh made untruthful statements before the Senate Judiciary Committee over the weekend; saying “lying to Congress is a federal crime.”

The Democratic socialist posted a series of allegations Saturday demanding federal investigators probe whether Kavanaugh was telling the truth regarding his drinking history, his willingness to take a polygraph examination, and the accuracy of his calendars.

“A fundamental question the FBI can help answer is whether Judge Kavanaugh has been truthful with the committee,” Sanders said. “This goes to the very heart of whether he should be confirmed to the court.”

Republican leadership in the Senate agreed Friday to a “one week delay” to give the FBI time to investigate allegations of sexual assault against Judge Brett Kavanaugh dating back to the early 1980s.

The request -initiated by Sen. Jeff Flake- urged Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to delay the full Senate vote just hours after Dr. Christine Ford and Judge Kavanaugh appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee.

“There’s going to be a supplemental FBI background investigation” Majority Whip Sen. John Cornyn confirmed Friday.

The President signaled a willingness to allow GOP leadership to reschedule the vote earlier Friday after Flake’s announcement, saying “I’m going to rely on all of the people including Senator Grassley, who’s doing a very good job.”
