    Kavanaugh Disappointed to Discover Supreme Court Has No Happy Hour



    WASHINGTON —In a setback for the newest Associate Justice on his first day at work, Brett Kavanaugh said on Tuesday that he was “very disappointed” to learn that the Supreme Court does not have a happy hour.

    Kavanaugh told reporters that he made the horrifying discovery as

    the clock ticked down to 5 p.m. and “everyone was still in their offices working and stuff.”


    “I mean, I couldn’t believe it,” Kavanaugh said.

    “I had been busting my tail for six hours, and I needed to blow off some steam.”


    Ruth Bader Ginsburg was the member of the Court who delivered the bad news to Kavanaugh.

    “When she told me, I guess I started crying a bit, which I now regret,” he said.

    “She just kind of closed her office door and went back to work or whatever.”


    Kavanaugh’s unpleasant discovery that the Supreme Court has “absolutely no drink specials” has

    left him wondering if his bruising confirmation battle “was even worth it.”


    “This place blows,” he said.

    One more for the road. Kavanaugh allegedly vandalized truck in drunken rage

    According to the Wall Street Journal, when senators went into their super-secret cone of silence with their special Mitch McConnell decoder rings last week, they saw a stack of do ents with thousands of tips about Brett Kavanaugh that had been sent to the FBI tipline. And they basically ignored them all.

    From the Wall Street Journal:

    One do ent likely in the stack would be a notarized statement submitted to the FBI Tuesday by a truck owner,

    who allegedly confronted an inebriated college student who was “smashing the black cargo box” in the bed of his parked Ford Courier on a New Haven, Conn., street in the fall of 1986.


    “I yelled again at the person, and realized it was Brett Kavanaugh,” reads the statement, which goes on to allege that the future Supreme Court nominee, “uncontrollably, incoherently drunk,”

    later refused to pay for the damage when confronted over the incident at meeting of Truth and Courage, the secret society both Yale undergraduates belonged to.

    Judge Kavanaugh, through his attorney, denies the incident took place.


    The former truck owner, whose redacted statement was reviewed by The Wall Street Journal, says that Truth and Courage members met twice weekly through senior year to hang out and drink.

    When “heavily drunk,” Mr. Kavanaugh, could turn “belligerent, offensive and even possibly criminal,” the statement says.

    The judge has denied such allegations about his alcohol habits in testimony before the Senate.

    Gee, that almost sounds like “wilding.”

    Oh, and in case you’re not pissed off enough yet,

    here’s a quote about the myriad accusations, from a Republican senator:

    Sen. John Kennedy (R., La.) said:

    “It’s pretty thick—the whole report, you could stand on it and paint the ceiling.”

    Yes, Sen. Kennedy.

    Or maybe you could write on the ceiling.

    Might I suggest, “ you, America”?

    How a Kavanaugh Court Will Take Us Back to the Dark Ages

    1. The Muslim Ban.

    2. Gay Marriage.

    3. Torture.

    Trump has pledged to torture people, and to torture them with great brutality.

    4. A Woman’s Right to Choose

    5. Big Money Dominating Politics.

    6. Workers Rights.

    Social scientists have found that the rapid march of the United States toward being a highly unequal society and a plutocracy has been enabled in part by the corporations’ gutting of the union movement.

    https://www.truthdig.com/articles/ho...the-dark-ages/

    I would not be surprised if the BigGun / Repugs brought a case / passed a law that forbade ANY and ALL gun regs at state and local level

    5 Interesting Supreme Court Cases Kavanaugh Could Decide This Term

    The new justice could be a deciding vote on upcoming cases concerning immigrant detention laws and prison sentencing rules.

    Protecting people from being tried for the same crime twice

    Gamble v. United States, one of the first cases the Supreme Court has agreed to hear, centers on the cons utionality of the “separate sovereignty exception” to the Fifth Amendment’s double jeopardy clause.

    In simpler terms, that’s a controversial loophole in the rule that a person cannot be tried for the same crime twice. The exception under question holds that because the federal and state government are “separate sovereigns,” the double jeopardy clause does not apply.

    Limiting who can be charged under the Armed Career Criminal Act

    In another case with implications for lengths of prison sentences, the Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case dealing with which state robbery crimes should be considered violent felonies under the Armed Career Criminal Act, a statute that set a minimum sentence of 15 years for crimes involving firearms if the offender already has three serious or violent felony convictions on their record.

    Detaining immigrants during deportation proceedings

    The Supreme Court has also agreed to decide in Nielsen v. Preap, a case that will determine whether thousands of longtime U.S. residents face indefinite detention without a bond hearing.

    Applying civil rights protections in LGBT discrimination cases

    One case that may be added to the Supreme Court’s docket this term would determine whether the federal civil rights law that bans workplace sex discrimination also applies to sexual orientation.

    In Zarda v. Al ude Express, Inc., a skydiving company asked the Supreme Court to hear an appeal in the case it lost in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit earlier this year. That decision found that the company violated le VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 when it fired him for being gay.

    Allowing religious symbols on public property

    Another issue that could be added to the Supreme Court’s docket concerns a set of rulings that barred the display of large crosses on public property.

    In two lawsuits out of Maryland likely to be considered as one case if they’re granted an appeal before the Supreme Court, and a similar one out of Florida whose parties are hoping to bypass lower courts so that it may be considered with the Maryland cases, the Supreme Court may consider how far the government may go in preventing religious symbols on public property.

    https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry...gEmail__101018


    here's how the rulings will go

    LGBT: no civil rights federal protection, so-called Catholic judges pander to Christian hate, implement Christian sharia

    religious on taxpayer property: judges pander to Christian supremacy

    double jeopardy: since most people tried are poor, the poor, try them twice, punish them twice.

    immigrant detention w/o bond: they aren't Americans, so 'em, damage them with detention for political objectives, aka torture.

    I, human being, disagree with all of those rulings.

    'Welcome to the Future': SCOTUS Ruling on North Dakota's Voter ID Law Underscores Nationwide GOP Attack on Voting Rights

    "This is why the Supreme Court matters...It's about the very nature of American democracy. And, oh yeah, about racism too."

    As the U.S. Supreme Court this week upheld a North Dakota voter ID requirement, it likely disenfranchised tens of thousands of the state's residents—particularly Democratic-leaning Native American voters—and made clear that

    the highest court in the land will do little to protect Americans from the Republican Party's rampant attacks on voting rights.

    The court ruled in favor of the Eighth Circuit Court's decision that allowed the state to require all voters to have a residential street address and an accepted form of ID which includes that address.

    The requirement, introduced in 2017 by GOP Gov. Doug Burgum, blatantly disenfranchises indigenous voters, many of whom live on reservations and use P.O. boxes instead of street addresses.

    "Access to voting should not be dependent on whether one lives in a city or on a reservation,"

    In her dissent, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg shared grave concerns that the rule could leave tens of thousands of the state's voters unable to vote in November:

    The risk of disenfranchisement is large...

    Seventy thousand North Dakota residents—

    almost 20 percent of the turnout in a regular quadrennial election—

    lack a qualifying ID;

    and approximately 18,000 North Dakota residents also lack supplemental do entation sufficient to permit them to vote without a qualifying ID.

    I was joking a little but mine at the SA house is more like a safe/closet but two people could actually get in there in a pinch. More than likely if I got that far though I would just come right back out with a shotgun.
