Listening to the Leahy questions, the Manny Miranda issue is a serious one. Kavanaugh got “intel” about Leahy’s strategy — can’t help but think the withheld materials include more of this — but Kavanaugh tries to maintain deniability about the theft.
no that’s just a bonus. the reason he was appointed is to protect Trump from having to testify or any questions about can a sitting president be indicted in criminal/civil cases
Kavanaugh is a known liar, perjurer, and rabid ideologue.
His deceptive answers are nothing but a dodge to not reveal his continued efforts, soon to be redoubled, to subvert all laws that do not align with his own personal beliefs.
Brett Kavanaugh Dances Around Views On Abortion
Ya Funny
He spent two decades coaching other Republican court nominees on getting through hearings by saying nothing. He doesn’t even have to think about it, it is engrained in his muscle memory now.
Kavanaugh’s training film-
“I understand how passionate and how deeply people feel about this issue,” Kavanaugh says on abortion rights. “I don’t live in a bubble.”
That wasn’t the question.
Enuf already, he has his scotus robe waiting for him. This is all waste of tim,e theater, and if the gawd’s aren’t kind, t* will get to replace rbg, too. By the time t* leaves, jan 2021, he will have filled alll120 fed court vacancies, that rethug’s blocked pres obama fr filling. i read that by then, 1 in 7 appeals court judges will be right wingnuts. Most cases are settled at appeals court level, and never make it to scotus
heidi, amy, claire, joe manchin, donnelly?
that’s the answer he was prepped to give.
If a judge can’t tell you whether a SC case from almost a half-century ago was correctly decided, you know exactly what he will do with that ruling once he gets his hands on it. But that’s what the 2016 election was about, wasn’t it?
I know I’m a pariah for bringing this up, but…
Row vs Wade wasn’t the rock solid legal precedent it could have — and should have — been. So if it is overturned, another, stronger, sounded case (or 10) needs to be filed IMMEDIATELY. When that case reaches the SCOTUS, it must clearly state that a womans body is her own. Period. No man, no fetus, no nothing gets priority over her choce and her life.
I am way more concerned about this creep hurting the Mueller probe and helping the Trump crime family than I am about Row vs Wade.
Maybe I’m missing something here, but I have never thought over turning Row vs Wade was the unmitigated disaster everyone makes it out to be. If the idiots tear down a weak wall, we will build a stronger one.
Feinstein: “Judge Kavanaugh, is water wet?”
Kavanaugh: “The wetness of water is an accepted concept in physics.”
Feinstein: “But do you admit it as fact?”
Kavanaugh: “I believe the assertion is entitled to respect.”
Feinstein: “So you’re unwilling even to admit that water is wet?”
Kavanaugh: “I understand how passionate and deeply some people feel about the wetness of water.”
Feinstein: (Throws water pitcher at Kavanaugh)
Why is his answers evasive when a Democrat ask a question or is there as he terms them hypothetical and yet when a Republican namely Lindsey Graham answers these C’s questions you’re straight up yes or no answers he’s very definite and his answers to a Republican but he’s evasive when it comes to a Democrat. He’s a phony liar and should not be A supreme court judge it should be approved. He is failed the vetting process so far.
Auntie Lindsey Graham and your comments yesterday about Democrats and their questions or statements made to this trump appointee he made a rude statement about getting elected and then you have your supreme court choice to be considered. Seriously as I recall we did have an elected president his name was Obama and it was Mitch McConnell and the senate that said he couldn’t have his choice for a separate supreme court judge and Lindsey Graham was part of the Senate who allowed Mitch McConnell to make that decision. So to Lindsey Graham shut up you’re a hypocrite.
Kavanaugh STILL has HIS high school copy of TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD. SLAM dunk on LIBtards HEAD.
What makes you think the upcoming scotus would rule that way? They’ll ship it back to the states, and OK even nastier versions of the fugitive slave law.
Let us face it, he is dancing around every question.
The 10th Amendment will rule supreme except in cases that can be decided on a very narrow, literal reading of the Constitution. The only broad interpretation will be 2nd Amendment right to bear arms and 1st Amendment religious freedom that will allow all self proclaimed Xtians to openly discriminate against anybody who does not follow the inviolate dictates of the Evangeliban.
Would that include decriminalizing the ingestion of illicit, illegal, non-prescribed narcotics during pregnancy resulting in harm to the child?
The truth is he has no problem blocking women from access to their own bodies.
This isn’t about a medical procedure.
