President Donald Trump reacted Thursday to the ongoing allegations against Judge Brett Kavanaugh as the FBI investigation into him does not seem to have yielded any significant results.
This is a very important time in our country. Due Process, Fairness and Common Sense are now on trial!

The FBI investigation looked into decades-old allegations of sexual assault against Kavanaugh. The main probe of the investigation focused on the accusation of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, who alleged that he assaulted her in their teenage years. The FBI also probed the story of a woman who claimed that Kavanaugh exposed himself to her during their freshman year at Yale University.
Trump tweeted previously in the day that:
The harsh and unfair treatment of Judge Brett Kavanaugh is having an incredible upward impact on voters. The PEOPLE get it far better than the politicians. Most importantly, this great life cannot be ruined by mean & despicable Democrats and totally uncorroborated allegations!

White House spokesman Raj Shah also revealed Thursday early morning that the administration is confident once the details of the investigation have been reviewed by the Senate a vote on Kavanaugh will proceed positively.

Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley issued a statement after receiving a briefing on the FBI investigation saying “this investigation found no hint of misconduct and the same is true of the six prior FBI background investigations conducted during Judge Kavanaugh’s 25 years of public service,” adding “it’s time to vote. I’ll be voting to confirm Judge Kavanaugh.”
