Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) on Sunday said the House would investigate Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh if he's confirmed to the court and the Democrats take back the majority.
We would have to investigate any credible allegations certainly of perjury and other things that havent properly been looked into before," Nadler said on ABC's "This Week."

He left open the possibility that the Senate and the FBI do an adequate job investigating Kavanaugh so the House wouldn't need to step in.
"If he is on the Supreme Court and the Senate hasnt investigated, then the House will have to," he said. Nadler is the likely next chairman of the House Judiciary Committee if the Democrats retake the House in November's elections.

I have a feeling that once dems take back the majority, 2019 will be the year of investigations.
