DONALD Trump’s Supreme Court pick Brett Kavanaugh looks set for the lifetime job as swing senators say they back him.
The FBI had been tasked by the US President to look into allegations of sexual misconduct levelled against the judge by three women.
But after Republican Senator Susan Collins and Joe Manchin, a Democrat, both indicated their backing his seat looks all but confirmed.
Kavanaugh’s confirmation would give conservatives a solid 5-4 majority in future legal battles on contentious issues such as abortion rights, immigration and gay and transgender rights.
A final vote is scheduled for Saturday after university professor Christine Blasey Ford accused Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her when they were high school students in Maryland in 1982.
Two other women also made accusations of sexual misconduct by Kavanaugh in the 1980s.
He denied those accusations, as well as Ford’s, in angry testimony to a Senate committee.
Earlier this week, Trump mocked Dr Ford and the “evil people” trying to destroy judge Kavanaugh at a rally in Mississippi.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
