SCOTUS

NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
Why do you think the ABA spoke out?
My theory: people might not trust legal proceedings

I?m sorry having a hearing some people might say it?s a trial. But not calling all witness. Also not addressing other allegations is an insult to common law.

if the creepy purple font were personified , yesterday?s shouting match by Lindsay graham and rapist judge kavanugh is what it would look like  :)

Anyways quite possible that senate gop just traded the fate of the house in the midterms for a scotus seat

It's not the Third Millennium...yet, and you are not Judge Dredd (rapist? really?) You don't like this? work the next election to change things, instead of screaming at the sky and calling names.

Just a reminder why having a good SCOTUS matters:

1. Schools that take public money will not be able to keep Asians out.
2. Unions will not be able to force its members to subsidize causes the members don't support.
3. States will not be able to bar its residents from protecting themselves.
etc., etc.

Freedom itself is at stake here.

Hats off to ?ber-feminist Jill Filipovic. She may very well have found a way to dial the lefty Kavanaugh insanity up to eleventy:

I don't get my hopes up with promises like this.  All the people who promised to move to Canada after the 2016 election are apparently still here.

@elisabethlehem
Who would tell me who to vote for then?

LOL
 
#inaweek?

There is an informal potential roadblock, however, which is that Flake has asked for the vote to be delayed for a week, though this is not something the committee can decide.

Flake is saying he will vote no unless an FBI investigation takes place, which would give McConnell reason to delay the vote.

It's getting confusing...

Kennedy asked Trump to nominate Kavanaugh
He retired early so Kavanaugh could be pushed through.

He knows the blue wave is coming and needs the confirmation done asap.

Why does kennedy want kavanaugh?

Do you think supreme court justices line up their replacements?

2 words ... Deutsche Bank

Really? we have already blown that one up, reaching back for tinfoil conspiracy theory's smells desperate.

Fake news...

MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle, who worked for eight years at Deutsche Bank before joining the news network, cautioned about reaching conclusions because there are multiple parts of the bank that "can easily get confused and lumped together."

"While I know and it has been well-reported, Deutsche was a massive lender to Mr. Trump, I want to put a new context," she said. "A lot of this comes from multiple sides of the bank, specifically the private bank, and that was not where Mr. Kennedy worked."

Citing two former members of senior management, Ruhle said, "a lot of the recent lending comes from the private bank...most of which was done after Justin left the bank."

"The business Mr. Kennedy ran was part of a real estate team that did some business. It was not part of the private bank business
 
That's a mistake.  Dems will parade out a bunch of other new and interesting accusations and victims. (all baloney) The stall is on.  Now we will see if the Turtle will hold strong.  If he does, Kavenaugh will be seated for the new session.
 
I haven?t commented on Kavanaugh?s nomination. SCOTUS nominations/appointments have become wholly political, and if you hold the Senate and Executive branch, the only constraint is political blowback. There was a treasure trove of fully expected political blowback with Kavanaugh, before any sexual misconduct allegations were revealed. He was a poor choice from the beginning. Most standard Federalist Society conservative options considered were more ideal (much less opposition). Look no further than Gorsuch?s nomination process for an example.

It appears our new normal is Federal judicial nominees will likely only reach the court when one party holds both the White House and Senate, with SCOTUS nominees certain not to reach the Supreme Court without holding both the White House and Senate.

That?s not Alan Dershowitz said yesterday.

?Alan Dershowitz Urges Delay Of Kavanaugh Confirmation Vote For FBI Probe

Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz on Thursday urged the Senate Judiciary Committee to delay its vote on Brett Kavanaugh?s Supreme Court confirmation until the FBI investigates the sexual misconduct claims against him.

Dershowitz echoed the widespread call for an investigation after the emotional testimony of Kavanaugh and one of his accusers, Christine Blasey Ford, earlier in the day.?

Mark my words, even if they get all of this new testimony they will get nothing new to add. All the votes will remain exactly the same. This is a colossal stall tactic, all ?witnesses ? will simply re read their current sworn affidavits and nothing new. He will be seated for the next session

What is accomplished by a "stall tactic"? The vote will happen in a week. It is a fair compromise. As long as it happens before mid-term elections what difference does it make on the outcome? It allows time for thorough and compelling investigation to be completed.

This isn't your everyday appointment either. This is for a lifetime. Why wouldn't we want to get it right regardless of the side you're on?
