He made it up. All the FBI needs to investigate is a green light from POTUS.

No I'm not.
They don't need Trump's permission. He can order them to do it if they choose to pass, which they did, and they explained why.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!
Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

no...it's a circus thank to the democrats
ahhh...the words of that liberal lion and democrat icon....
"Robert Bork's America is a land in which women would be forced into back-alley abortions, blacks would sit at segregated lunch counters, rogue police could break down citizens' doors in midnight raids, schoolchildren could not be taught about evolution, writers and artists would be censored at the whim of government, and the doors of the federal courts would be shut on the fingers of millions of citizens for whom the judiciary is often the only protector of the individual rights that are the heart of our democracy.
America is a better and freer nation than Robert Bork thinks. Yet in the current delicate balance of the Supreme Court, his rigid ideology will tip the scales of justice against the kind of country America is and ought to be.
The damage that President Reagan will do through this nomination, if it is not rejected by the Senate, could live on far beyond the end of his presidential term. President Reagan is still our President. But he should not be able to reach out from the muck of Irangate, reach into the muck of Watergate, and impose his reactionary vision of the Constitution on the Supreme Court and on the next generation of Americans. No justice would be better than this injustice."

Not sure what you mean. I posted where the FBI said they took a pass on investigating Ford's claims. Trump can order them to do it if he wants, which I presume he does not.

Who and when from the fbi said they would not continue the background check?
Of course they would not open an investigation into a state crime but they are the agency that does background checks at the request of the president, seems he either doesn’t want to know or doesn’t know how it works.
