FBI has no current plans to interview Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, source says

A source tells NBC News that the White House believes her testimony at last week's Senate hearing is sufficient.

WASHINGTON — The FBI has not returned calls from lawyers for Dr. Christine Blasey Ford — and she's not included in the bureau's current list of potential witnesses to interview, two sources told NBC News.

The White House believes Ford's public testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee was sufficient and the FBI would be wasting its time speaking to her again about allegations of sexual assault against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, said a source familiar with the Trump administration's thinking.

....Ford's attorneys sent a sharply-worded letter to the FBI Tuesday afternoon expressing dismay over the reports that the agency wasn't planning to interview their client.

The lawyers, Michael Bromwich and Debra Katz, wrote that they've heard nothing from the FBI after sending a "series of emails and letters in which we identified witnesses and evidence that would likely assist" the investigation.

Choose you're poison.

That's why McTurtle is confident that he can hold a vote this week.
