It’s not just that they aren’t allowed to investigate the third accuser’s claims.

They also won’t look into his drinking at Yale or pull Mark Judge’s employment records or take other basic investigative steps. Unless something changes.

In the end, three senators, Flake, Murkowski and Collins, have it in their power to set the terms of the investigation. Not satisfied? They can vote no until they are.
