K is liar with tons to hide.
Dems should put together a case, then impeach him after 21 Jan 2021, replace him with Obama
K had an emotional breakdown in his "job interview", and still got hired. No business would hire him, but Repugs did.
ing ridiculous, a scam, proving how the Repugs totally want to up govt, and have a fully prejudiced, politicized judiciary
The only scam run was done by Blasey-Ford and her handlers.
You Lie.
K is as unfit, unqualified for SCOTUS as Trash is for the WH.
Dem senator accuses the FBI of a carrying out a ‘cover-up’ for Brett Kavanaugh — and calls for an investigation
Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island, in a USA Today op-ed published on Friday, argued that Kavanaugh wasn’t adequately vetted as he should have been.
“people reached out to my office to find out where to go in the FBI with information relevant to the allegations against Kavanaugh.”
But according to Whitehouse, the FBI wasn’t helpful.
“We were given the runaround by the FBI,” Whitehouse recalls.
“No one was designated to receive information related to Kavanaugh;
people trying to help were referred to an FBI ‘tip line.’”
allegations against Kavanaugh were “unusual” because
in most cases, “FBI agents want to talk with people who claim to have information and to take statements,
often referred to as 302s. A witness interview allows agents to pursue lines of questioning and to evaluate credibility.
another “flag” came when “FBI Director Christopher
Wray began to disavow responsibility for the investigation” and
“pointed out very publicly that the Kavanaugh investigation was not being run under FBI investigative protocols,
but following directions from the White House.”

Sen. Kamala Harris calls for a House impeachment inquiry into Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh
Sen. Kamala Harris is calling on the House Judiciary Committee to launch a formal impeachment inquiry into Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh,
citing a need to determine the truth about the allegations against him after a farcical investigation last year.
Sen. Harris noted the FBI investigation was “not serious.” Indeed, the agency did not interview multiple witnesses and/or corroborators, something they said was inexplicably outside the scope of their extremely narrow investigation directives.
The system failed women and she made the case to revisit the Kavanaugh allegations through an impeachment inquiry.
If we want to live in a country where women are believed and given access to the justice they deserve, we must roll up our sleeves and get to work holding our leaders accountable—especially those who serve on the highest court in our land.
We need to get to the truth about Kavanaugh. And I believe the best path to truth and accountability is through a formal impeachment process.
And for those who say this will go nowhere in the Senate, she has a message for you too:
it’s about restoring faith in our justice system.
restoring faith in our justice system requires meaningful accountability and transparency.
This should have been given to the American people before Kavanaugh was confirmed to a lifetime seat on our highest court.
It didn’t, and it was a national travesty.
But, it is within the power of the United States Congress to do it now.

she doesn't mention that K LIED in his earlier confirmation hearing?
Repug DoJ protecting Repug K
DOJ court filing reveals FBI’s reason for withholding information on Kavanaugh background check
During the confirmation process for Kavanaugh in 2018, the FBI conducted a superficial background check
Kalmbacher, discussing Leopold’s lawsuit, explains, “at first, it seemed as if the FBI was keen to wash their hands of the Kavanaugh imbroglio;
the agency uncharacteristically acknowledged the request and assigned it for expedited processing on the same day the Kavanaugh do ent request was filed.
Then came the stonewall.
A month passed, and the FBI produced zero responsive do ents.”
After that, Kalmbacher notes, “nearly one year of legal wrangling followed.” And on Friday, according to Kalmbacher,
“the FBI moved to have the case dismissed by arguing that they’ve already released enough information and
that what they haven’t yet released is covered by one of the several statutory exceptions to FOIA.”
information that is “unquestionably private” and “could subject Judge Kavanaugh and others to harassment or embarrassment in their private lives.”
“Much of the information requested by plaintiffs — both in the supplemental background investigation file and the tip records —
relates to Judge Kavanaugh’s alleged conduct as a teenager and young adult —
decades before his distinguished career in public service began —
and does not concern the performance of his public duties.”
In 2018, Kavanaugh’s critics argued that given how disturbing the allegations being made against him were,
the FBI should have conducted a much more thorough and comprehensive investigation of him.

Brett Kavanaugh was a secret source to Bob Woodward while working as a lawyer in Ken Starr’s 1999 investigation
“And at the height of the furor over Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court in 2018, some who did saw a shocking article awaiting publication,”
Bob Woodward, the Post legend who protected the iden y of his Watergate source, Deep Throat, for 30 years, was going to unmask one of his own confidential sources.
He was, in particular, going to disclose that Judge
Kavanaugh had been an anonymous source in his 1999 book Shadow: Five Presidents and the Legacy of Watergate,”
, Kavanaugh gave Woodward juicy details about Ken Starr’s investigation behind the scenes while serving as a lawyer on Starr’s team.
It was executive editor Martin Baron who stopped it, insisting that Woodward uphold his agreement.
“The article, described by two Post journalists who read it, would have been explosive, arriving as the nominee battled a decades-old sexual assault allegation and was fighting to prove his integrity,”

It was obvious that K as huge piece of slimy who had emotional breakdown in his job interview.
Repugs hired him anyway, more evidence that Repugs are no longer a political party but cheap s to oligarchy who have tried for decades to put 5 hard conservatives on the Supreme Court. K was #5
Kavanaugh makes Collins his fool, breaking his supposed promises on abortion case
Sen. Susan Collins is 0-3 with her guy Brett Kavanaugh's votes on the Supreme Court so far this session.
Kavanaugh, who is on the Supreme Court because of Collins,
has voted to kick Dreamers out of the country,
let employers fire LGBTQ people solely on the basis of their sexual orientation, and
now to take abortion rights away from Louisiana women.
It's that last one that must really sting for Collins, since
she premised her entire support for the guy on the fact that he would respect precedent, especially when it came to abortion.
Kavanaugh told her, she said that he believed
"decisions become part of our legal framework with the passage of time, and
that honoring precedent is essential to maintaining public confidence."
She also said he was the first nominee she had spoken with
"to express the view that precedent is not merely a practice and tradition,
but rooted in Article III of our Cons ution itself."
Boy, does she look stupid now.

The corrupt oligarchy secretly buying a corrupt judiciary, including SCOTUS
$20M was spent for the campaign for Gorsuch.
America is ed and un able.
Brett Kavanaugh is about to get a lot more powerful

tldr Brett is the new swing vote on the SC
To be clear, a court on which Kavanaugh is the swing voter is an extraordinarily conservative court.
damn, maybe we'll see if second amendment people will do something about it
Dems should impeach K for lying to Senate in both confirmation hearings.
Remember thar DoJ shut down FBI's vetting of Kavanaugh,
since then a lot more witnesses have come forward to prove K lied.
swing voter in a 6 - 3 SCOTUS?
I guess he counts Roberts as a lib so should Roberts vote with us etc.Dems should impeach K for lying to Senate in both confirmation hearings.
Remember thar DoJ shut down FBI's vetting of Kavanaugh,

He’s not wrong, on this court the combination of Gorsuch/Kav are the swing vote. There are some issues where Gorsuch will be more likely to flip and others where it’ll be Kavanaugh. ACB will be another Uncle Thomas/wop Alito.
Sen. Whitehouse requests an investigation of the investigation.
It's doubtful anything but more noise will be the result.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...und-check-fake“This was unique behavior in my experience, as the Bureau is usually amenable to information and evidence; but in this matter the shutters were closed, the drawbridge drawn up, and there was no point of entry by which members of the public or Congress could provide information to the FBI,” Whitehouse said.
He added that, once the FBI decided to create a “tip line”, senators were not given any information on how or whether new allegations were processed and evaluated. While senators’ brief review of the allegations gathered by the tip line showed a “stack” of information had come in, there was no further explanation on the steps that had been taken to review the information, Whitehouse said.
“This ‘tip line’ appears to have operated more like a garbage chute, with everything that came down the chute consigned without review to the figurative dumpster,” he said.
djohn
Roberts knows he can vote with libs to polish his historical reputation, knowing that his conservative buddies will still win 5-4 on issues that Roberts, if swinger, would vote against.
Yeah, I know. I was guessing what he thought there. Roberts has had some good votes for a conservative justice.
