3:33 am
that she was allegedly sexually assaulted. in the past judge has said he remembers no such thing. all weekend long we thought that judge might be one of the only people the fbi would be allowed to interview, but all that changed today. >> i think the fbi should do what they have to do to get to the answer. >> reporter: in a nod to political pressure, the white house authorized the fbi today to interview anyone it deems necessary. >> i want it to be comprehensive. i actually think it's a good thing for judge kavanaugh. i think it's actually a good thing, not a bad thing. i think it's a good thing. now, with that being said i'd like it to go quickly. and the reason i'd like it to go quickly, very simple. it's so simple. because it's unfair to him at this point. >> reporter: initially the white house counsel's office had directed the fbi to interview just a few people. >> mark judge, a boy named p.j. >> reporter: the people christine blasey ford said were at that gathering in 1982 who

3:36 am
>> reporter: democrats have suggested that if kavanaugh did occasionally black out while drinking in high school and college, that perhaps he's the one with the faulty memory, not ford. the white house is working to counter that line, releasing statements this evening from not one, but two of kavanaugh's college friends who say specifically that they never saw him black out. >> overseas rescue workers in indonesia are in a race against time to find survivors amid the rubble of a powerful earthquake and tsunami. ben tracy is there. >> reporter: much of this city on the indonesian island of sulawesi is simply flattened. both mosques and malls flooded or reduced to piles of rubble. nearly 50,000 people are homeless. cell phone video shows the earthquake's power as the ground cracked and seemingly turned to liquid last friday. the jolt of the 7.5 magnitude quake created a tsunami, a wave

the supreme court nomination of brett kavanaugh is now on hold while the fbi conducts an investigation into allegations of sexual assault. how did this come about? scott pelley has the story for "60 minutes." >> i don't think anybody expected, you know, what happened on friday to happen. and i can't say that i did either. i just knew that we couldn't move forward, that i couldn't move forward without hitting the pause button because what i was seeing, experiencing in an elevator, watching it in committee, thinking, this is ripping our country apart. >> senator, what are you doing, sir? >> reporter: what happened in the elevator?
3:41 am
>> people felt very strongly about the hearings and what was going on. >> what you are doing is allowing someone who actually violated a woman to sit in the supreme court. this is not doable. >> reporter: flake had just announced he would vote for kavanaugh. the people who felt so strongly were activists annamarie a archila and maria gallagher who told flake they were survivors of sexual assault. >> it doesn't matter what happened to me. >> they were clearly passionate and determined that i hear them. >> i believed he was going to rape me. i tried to yell for help. >> reporter: what the senate judiciary committee heard thursday upended kavanaugh's nomination. >> this is what terrified me the most and has had the most lasting impact on my life. it was hard for me to breathe, and i thought that brett was accidentally going to kill me.
3:42 am
>> reporter: dr. christine blasey ford testified that kavanaugh sexually assaulted her when they were in high school. >> with what degree of certainty do you believe brett kavanaugh assaulted you? >> 100%. >> reporter: democrat kris cools and jeff flake listened from opposite end of the dais, separated by party. but in truth, they were much closer. they had struck up a friendship over the years that bridged mere politics. >> as you are sitting there listening to dr. ford, what are you hearing, what are you thinking? >> i'm hearing a, a very smart anguished person who did not want to be testifying in front of us and meanwhile my phone is just blowing up. it was stunning. the number of people i heard from during the hearing, it was almost hard to know which to listen to more because the things coming in were so
3:43 am
striking. >> and they were saying what? >> you've known me a very long time and i was raped as a child and i've never told anyone before right now, and i'm sharing it with you. >> reporter: there is another stream of testimony coming in to you. >> yeah. >> reporter: at the same time. >> in the case of the folks i'm referring to, powerful testimony from people i know and trust who had never shared these stories with me before. >> it was just that palpable feeling of this is history and she was compelling, just extremely compelling. i think everybody said that on both sides. >> reporter: you did or did not believe her? >> well, i mean, how could you not? she certainly believes she certainly experienced something, wasn't brett kavanaugh. he says i'm sure she experienced something, but it wasn't me.
3:44 am
>> this whole two-week effort has been a calculated orchestrated political hit, revenge on behalf of the clintons and millions of dollars and money from outside left wing opposition groups. >> reporter: i'd like to ask both of you what you made of judge kavanaugh's very emotional response and what it may or may not say about his judicial temperament. does this man belong on the supreme court? >> he had exchanges with senator feinstein, senator klobuchar that i thought went over line. he was clearly belligerent, aggressive, angry. >> reporter: made you wonder about his suitability? >> in my case yes. >> reporter: but senator flake, you identified with it. you understood -- >> well, it seemed partisan, but, but the way i had to put myself in that spot and you can understand why he was angry. and i think you give him a lot of leeway there.
3:45 am
>> reporter: when judge kavanaugh came out swinging, what was that moment like for you? the judiciary committee's democrats include sheldon whitehouse of rhode island and maize honoro of hawaii. >> one of the astounding things judge kavanaugh did was blame the democrats for some kind of conspiracy that went on that we had been plotting all this, although thank goodness he acknowledged dr. ford was not part of that conspiracy, she had no political motive. >> reporter: >> it was really quite astonishing the tone of the room changed when judge kavanaugh came out explosionly confrontational. >> this has become a disgrace. >> what you want to do is destroy this guy's life. >> and lindsey graham burst out -- >> you said that. >> and just went on his own explosive statement. >> this is going to destroy the ability of good people to come forward because of this crap. >> we are not just englund
3:46 am
tirely logic -- entirely logical animals. we are spir its. >> this man is a monster. >> when somebody goes into the breach in full-on battle mode, they're not making a fool of themselves, it's a rallying point. you saw that happen in the room. lyndsay rallied the republicans. >> if you vote no, you're legitimatizing the most despicable thing i have seen in my time in politics. >> reporter: the committee's republican majority includes lindsey graham of south carolina and john kennedy of louisiana. >> she said it was brett kavanaugh 100%. >> she did. and he believe she is sincere. nobody is going to ever figure out what happened. they're not. something happened to her and something very, very bad happened to her, and i'm very, very sorry. but they both said 100%, she said it happened, judge
3:47 am
kavanaugh said it didn't. 100%. so what do you do? >> reporter: senator graham worries that the senate's constitutional role of advice and consent is no longer about the nominee. it's about the careers of the senators. >> the politics of voting for supreme court nominees are now about you, it's not about the nominee, it's not about the law, it's about how does it affect you. and you can't blame the democratic party for that. both of us got here, and i don't know if we'll ever get out. but i do not -- i don't want to go where we're headed. >> reporter: democrat chris coons saw the testimony wearing on his friend republican jeff flake and hoped to convince his colleague to compromise on kavanaugh. >> i was outside the hearing room, probably about the same time he was having that conversation in the elevator, and a reporter showed me that jeff had announced he was going to vote for kavanaugh. i was very upset. i mean hugely distraught by that because i was still hoping there might be some moment here.
3:48 am
>> reporter: despite flake's announced support of kavanaugh, cools tried to offer a compromise. the week-long investigation to be led by the fbi. >> and i have conveyed to my friends and colleagues that i had wished we would take a one-week pause, one week only. >> reporter: when you were making that compromise proposal, you were lobbying your friend. >> yes. >> reporter: senator flake. you didn't expect to change the minds of other republicans. you were trying to change one mind. >> i was principally concerned about helping my friend listen to his doubts and his conscience. >> reporter: changing one mind was enough because with the senate divided so narrowly, the republicans could hardly afford to lose flake. >> and i cannot tell you how grateful i am. jeff's the hero here. he's the person who wanted a moment just to, just to, you know, go over what are the legitimate concerns and grievances by republicans on the
3:49 am
committee about the process and the complaints and how we got here. >> reporter: after democratic senator coons floated his compromise, republican jeff flake stood up and walked from the republican side of the dais to the democratic. senator coons, there is a moment in the hearing in which senator flake walks by essentially taps on your shoulder and the two of you walk out. what happened when you walked out of the room? >> i followed jeff into the ante room and he said very intently, this is tearing our country apart. we have to do something. eventually we literally had the whole committee crammed into this tiny little hallway and my recollection was jeff at one point says, okay, i want to talk to chris. we went into literally a phone booth that was like this big. we were literally squeezed into a phone booth we could fit in talking to another senator. and there is this whole committee right outside. >> looking in.
3:50 am
>> looking in on the phone booth wondering what's going on. >> it was quite a moment. >> reporter: senator flake, you've announced that you're not running for reelection, and i wonder, could you have done this if you were running for reelection? >> no, not at chance. >> reporter: not a chance? >> no. >> reporter: because politics has become too sharp? too partisan? >> there's no value to reaching across the aisle. there's no currency for that any more.

3:54 am
judiciary committee passed kavanaugh's nomination to the full senate. in a week, the fbi investigation is expected to be given to all 100 senators and a vote is likely to be scheduled soon after. what are the chance that's we are going to be in exactly the same place a week from now? >> there's a schanchance and we that, some of our colleagues said that. we'll be back here one week from now. it will be worse. there will be other outrageous allegations that come forward. the fbi will talk to people that will -- that won't want to talk any more. we won't be better off. there is a chance that can happen. i think we can make progress. >> i think we'll be in a different place because lots of survivors around the country will feel that dr. ford's story was heard and respected and further investigated. we may well be in a different place a week from now because judge kavanaugh and his family may well have had exculpatory evidence brought forward --
