Christine Ford and her attorneys are very upset that the FBI hasn’t interviewed her and the media is most certainly playing along.
This morning NBC’s Today Show asked Jeff Flake if it would concern him that the FBI hasn’t interviewed her by the end of their investigation. Here’s what he had to say:
Would it concern you if the FBI didn’t talk to Dr. Ford or Brett Kavanaugh? @savannahguthrie asks @JeffFlake pic.twitter.com/UxOglsJVzY

Flake basically says that when he requested the FBI interview he felt that its job was to follow up leads that might corroborate her story. That is more significant to him than the FBI interviewing Ford herself, considering the have a statement from her and hours of her answering questions.
So the short answer is no, it doesn’t concern him.
Whew! You never know with Flake whether he’s going to hit the ‘flake out’ button again. I was honestly worried that he was going to say that yes it concerned him and he might not vote for Kavanaugh if they don’t interview her. But thankfully Flake is more reasonable on this and let’s hope it stays that way.
