Uh yeah no, that's not how a thorough investigation works.
Sure, they will find things out. But you can't say it's thorough.

I believe this, no pessimism on whether they'll work their hardest or not. What the majority does with that...
This one from their editorial board is my favorite :

A professional is telling you it's doable..........I mean........how thickheaded can you be
You are forgetting that all they have to do is prove he lied about not being at the party or other things to sink him.
Also judge is willing to talk to the FBI under confidentiality. I think he's gonna tell the real truth now.
I live in an extremely liberal part of the country, getting more people to vote in my area would literally do nothing because of the electoral college. If you think me or anyone else is the problem with our government you need a serious reality check.
I investigate for a living, you shouldn't be so presumptuous.
calling out empty pessimistic shit-posting isn't policing. I'm not forcing anyone to post. you post it, own it
report me if calling people out is hurting feelings
edit: I'm not referring to people who are merely pessimistic, I'm referring to people posting one sentence of "100% yup he is getting confirmed, we're fucked" and then ghosting the thread. suddenly many of them aren't back to further divulge and correct their claim (surprise) . it's shit posting and it muddies the thread for others who come in quickly to check the news and confuses them

That's not a thing the FBI does.
They'll investigate things and create a report. Ultimately it's the Senate that finds him ineligible or not.
You investigate computers. You don't investigate actual human beings. You're comparing the fact you're a tech support guy to a FBI investigator and assuming investigating a network with a faulty router is the same as the most powerful police agency in the country investigating a human for an investigation that they literally know the names of everyone involved and where they live and already have almost all of the relevant documents for.
EDIT: The same force that did a similar investigation with no time limit of a similar case involving the same position with significantly worse technology and did it in 3 days.
It's not going to be slapped together and garbage either. A lot of the groundwork has already been laid out, a lot of the formative and perfunctory elements have been established.
If this were an actual CI, I'd say yeah, a week limit would be insufficient. As a supplement to existing record, or even as a correction to existing record, it's not a horrendous miscarriage.
I'm not. He is literally telling you he can do it. You're not saying "well a high level pro or group might be able to get it done"
I'm glad someone else called out the WSJ for being a complete sham masquerading as centrist status quo shitheels
So what is it you expect to accomplish with your persistent negative Nancy attitude other then carrying the water for those you "apparently" hate?
Because it's crystal clear which side your rhetoric is actually helping:
It's not the side your claiming to support.

It doesn't matter what you're investigating. You can't impose an arbitrary timeline on any investigation of any kind and have it be thorough.
It's always possible that they could do a thorough investigation in a single week, but the reality is that the investigation should take as long as it has to.
"It's ok, I'm an investigator." *flashes Geek Squad badge*
I'm sorry Groove I couldn't resist XD
Real talk though. There needs to be some sort of march or protest sometime next week in opposition if Brett.
We have a week need to use it.

careful.. they might flood your instant messenger with html tags...
Well there goes your relevance there, doesn't it?
You're tech support, not a fucking private eye or FBI.
Are you trolling, man?
Well now I need to know from #ak1287 what kind of "investigating" he/she did for a living.

I was about to go in on this, and then I saw the edit.
That's totally fair and I agree.
Yeah, no, I do a lot more than just 'tech support' so please don't downplay my profession.
An investigation is an investigation, regardless of the subject.
Now people that are essentially Geek Squad Agents are comparing their work to the fucking FBI.
Goddamn, Liberal Defeatism is hilarious sometimes...
Yeah, because investigating whether or not old Mr. Jenkins got a virus on his Lenovo from too much internet porn is the same as investigating a man for rape.
Stop now before your really embarrass yourself.

Did that poster really just try to compare being an IT professional to being a criminal investigator? Lolololol
thanks, I read the first part and realized I came off very rude. sorry about that
This literally does not make sense.
It's not in the GOP's interest to "waste time", why would Flake hold up the floor vote to "waste time" for the GOP?
The government is the problem, but I wouldn't say in the way you're seeing it. Sanders should have been the candidate. We all know it. If the Old Dem regime didn't force Clinton on the world, apathy wouldn't have been the response of so many. Voter turnout would have been higher, and some of the people that did vote for Trump wouldn't have.
My two cents.
I mean, I investigate fairly complicated plane system malfunctions / issues on a daily basis, which I'm going to guess is significantly more complicated than a network or a router (since those are literally just tiny parts of the shit I have to go through), and a week with the resources even I have at my disposal is a long ass time. Give me functionally unlimited resources and the fact it is a human being I get to talk to instead of some ridiculous fucking system? Yeah, I'm getting you damn well all the info (which is all they are tasked with doing) in a week.
Has there been any reporting on what kind of things these FBI background checks typically cover? I've seen a lot of people pinning their hopes on very specific things like catching him in a lie about the true meaning of "devil's triangle" and shit and I'm wondering if that's even the type of thing they'd pursue.
Yeah I can't wrap my head around it. If he works for the police, fair enough.
But he/she isn't making that distinction and that's a little important.
I am going to presume he fixes PCs for malware/bugs/performance until he states otherwise.
Yep, Thank you monkey. I understand people choosing to be optimistic, and there have been a lot of changes no one saw coming.
Where I will admit to defeatism is whether there will be any action by Republicans against their own interests after the investigation. I do not know what will happen, but I don't expect the majority to do anything unless forced.
A week and an FBI investigation might yield the bombshell needed, I'm hopeful on that.
That's what I figured, but I wanted to confirm you weren't speaking of something specific that I may have missed.
Yeah I don't just troubleshoot fucking linksys routers. I'm not going into more detail and I shouldn't have to.
I know for a fact that there are investigations where it's just not feasible to come to a thorough conclusion in a week. Sure you can gather some diagnostics and come up with analysis in a week, but a good chunk of the problems we solve take much longer than a week to resolve.
Again, I'm not saying you can't do some good fucking work in a weeks time. But the idea that you can conclude any investigation in a weeks time and come to a thorough and accurate conclusion is ludicrous.
Nonsense. Even if it doesn't outright win you the election, getting more people to vote and surfacing situations where the electoral college is not voting with the American population even remotely would be a catalyst for change.
25%...that's not correct. Turnout last election was almost 60% of eligible voters, more than half of which voted for Clinton. Significantly more people "got off their fucking asses" for Clinton than Trump. But some votes count more than others.
60% sucks, but for the US it's historically high. Also, there are considerable efforts in this country to prevent people from voting. Since the repeal of (most of) the Voting Rights Act, it's been a non-stop assault on voting rights and voting accessibility for minorities in particular.
