GOP Nears Kavanaugh Vote as Key Holdouts Call FBI Report Thorough

The transcript discusses the ongoing review of an FBI file by senators in a secure room, leading to a procedural vote that could result in a confirmation vote on Saturday. Key undecided senators include Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Jeff Flake, and Joe Manchin. The Republicans can only afford to lose one vote unless Manchin supports them, in which case Vice President Mike Pence might need to break a tie. The FBI report's thoroughness is debated, with Republicans claiming it was comprehensive, while Democrats argue it lacked interviews with key witnesses. The report is not being made public.
