Deborah ramirez, mark judge, leland keyser, patrick smyth, tim gaudette and chris garrett. joining us is gloria borger, michael allen and maureen oconnell, a former fbi special agent. gloria, a week ago vulnerable republicans were in a tough spot. does that change after todays report? >> reporter: well, i think it gives them a talking point. the talking point is that jeff flake requested this investigation, there was an investigation. there was no corroborating evidence here and, therefore, they...

Leland kaiser who was at the same party 36 years ago. patrick smyth, another classmate, chris garrett also went to prep with kavanaugh and allegedly attended at that july 1982 party that appeared on kavanaughs calendar and he is connected to the same july party. the names of the other three are unknown. the white house insists it did not interfere with the fbi probe. >> any background investigation has to have some form of limiting scope. this time its always in these matters set by the white ho...

But in this realm, you are truly guilty until proven innocent. >> trumps comments come on the fourth full day of fbi -- the fbis background investigation into sex allegations against brett kavanaugh. thus far sources say the fbi has interviewed the witnesses on the republicans list, patrick smyth, leland keyser and mark judge, the people that christine blasey ford said were present at the party where she said brett kavanaugh assaulted her. what is not clear is if the fbi is looking into a new ha...

The president won in 2016, where democrats are up for re-election. manchin has not said whether or not he supports judge kavanaughs confirmation. the fbi investigation is well under way and we expect them to zero in on four individuals to have conversations with to learn more about judge kavanaugh. among them, mark judge. he, of course, the friend of brett kavanaugh that dr. ford believes was in the room during this alleged assault. also deborah ramirez is the yale classmate of brett kavanaugh a...

Fbi on september 12th, over two weeks ago. if the president and the republican majority had asked for the fbi to do an investigation at that time, like we asked, it would likely be finished by now. most importantly, when judge kavanaugh talked to republicans repeatedly, none of us have spoken to or questioned mark judge, patrick smyth, leland keyser. none of us approached james roche, lynne or chris. not one senator, as far as i know, has had the opportunity, from, opportunity to or question deb...

Reflected more or less what we heard yesterday, probably a more distilled version of that, similar to what we saw in her written statements before she appeared before this committee. they would have gone to judge kavanaugh, they would have interviewed judge kavanaugh, and jublg cavanaukavanaugh would ha us then as he told us yesterday that no such event ever occurred. he never did this to any woman, not in high school, not in college, not before, not after. they would have gone to the other alle...
