That Time Brett Kavanaugh Sat There as Ken Starr Argued Clinton’s Invocation of Privileges Was an ‘Abuse’
When Kavanaugh railed against “revenge on behalf of the Clintons” during his confirmation hearings,
he was suggesting that the 2016 election result and his time and role on Starr’s team investigating Bill Clinton had something to do with the allegations of sexual misconduct against him.
It was Nov. 1998 and there was a hearing before the House Judiciary Committee. Rep. Steve Chabot (R-Ohio)
asked Starr for his thoughts on how cooperative the Clinton administration had been with his investigation.
the Clinton administration invoked executive privilege for the purpose or effect of delay, and that, for him, this was an “abuse”–
"I think if privileges are invoked for the purposes of delay and have the intended effect of delay"
