SUPREME COURT: JUSTICE SCALIA DEATH AND SCOTUS CHANGES

That was a powerful encounter, for sure.

I've read a lot of comments by people who say Jeff Flake didn't do enough and should have voted 'no' on Kavanugh instead of pushing to delay the vote until a supplemental FBI background investigation was completed. 

But, I agree with you.  Even though he's retiring from the Senate, Flake (who's rumored to be considering a Presidential run) has to face his constituents in a red district.  It was a bold move on his part and he did it for the right reasons despite the repercussions to himself.
