Ultimately he secured an agreement with Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We've had a good day today by moving the nominee,\" Grassley told reporters. \"A good day. We're very happy with the progress we've made.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats said the compromise was the right move.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it will be better for the country that this FBI investigation occur,\" Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., told NPR. \"I'm not sure what the answers will be. It's possible some of the witnesses won't even agree to talk with FBI. ... But to think we wouldn't even try would be the saddest thing for the country.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>What Happens Next\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The new deadline for a Kavanaugh vote is Oct. 5. Grassley asked President Trump to instruct the FBI to spend that week conducting interviews, reviewing documents and looking into the new accusations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president agreed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The supplemental FBI background investigation would be limited to current credible allegations against the nominee and must be completed no later than one week from today,\" Grassley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It wasn't immediately clear whether \"current credible allegations\" would mean the FBI would interview only people connected with Ford's case or with some of the other women who have come forward with allegations against Kavanaugh.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FBI is unlikely to open a criminal investigation. Instead, its investigators are expected to pursue the same kind of background inquiry they have conducted on Kavanaugh in the past, focused on the new allegations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The nominee said in a statement released by the White House that he would go along.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Throughout this process, I've been interviewed by the FBI, I've done a number of 'background' calls directly with the Senate, and yesterday, I answered questions under oath about every topic the Senators and their counsel asked me,\" Kavanaugh said. \"I've done everything they have requested and will continue to cooperate.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At least one key player in this drama also volunteered to talk: Mark Judge — a boyhood friend of Kavanaugh's who has been accused by Ford of being a bystander to her sexual assault and was named in other allegations — said in a letter to the Judiciary Committee that he would cooperate under certain conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Judge renewed his denials about being involved with any sexual misconduct and said that he would \"cooperate with any law enforcement agency that is assigned to confidentially investigate these allegations.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Why Would the FBI Make a Difference?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>It's a crime to lie to Congress, but lying to the FBI is a whole other matter. And there is a practical difference between people in the Kavanaugh case issuing written statements — as Judge and others have done — and actually sitting down with human special agents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Investigators might glean details from people involved that aren't yet in the public eye. They might discover there are more people, including witnesses or others, than have been a part of the public accounting so far.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the FBI will not give its own determination about the truthfulness of what witnesses say — one reason Grassley and Kavanaugh both earlier said they opposed activating the bureau.
