Brett Kavanaugh has been confirmed as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. The vote was 50-48 in favor of Kavanaugh.
Senators Collins, Flake, and Manchin had already announced their intentions to confirm Kavanaugh before the vote was held. Senator Lisa Murkowski, who was previously ready to vote "no", agreed to vote "present" instead so that Senator Steve Daines could attend his daughter's wedding instead of being present in the Senate to support Kavanaugh.

An investigation? Based on what credible evidence?

I think that was the point: to investigate knowing there was no evidence, so the report would read "No evidence". And maybe worse for the Dems, would uncover their machinations... in fact it sounds like that may have happened and there may be more to come that wouldn't have bit the Dems in the ass if they'd just let it go once it was clear that evidence was lacking. Hoist by their own petard, they are....
And there is no Alkibiades to come back and save us from ourselves.
