SCOTUS

NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
It?s like recommending a person for a job. Stevens recommended him, and then said never mind.

Wash the hand, save the reputation.  ;D

We need more people like this.

So if political impartiality (as Stevens cites) is a no no for any Supreme Court Justice should we then begin proceedings to impeach Ruth Buzzy Ginsburg?  She is clearly partisan and that brings into question her ability to impartially judge the cases before her...don't you think?

How Ruth Bader Ginsburg became the face of the Trump resistance

It began during the 2016 election campaign, when Ginsburg broke the politics-what-politics? stance usually favored by Supreme Court justices, speaking out bluntly about her concerns regarding Trump.
"I can't imagine what this place would be -- I can't imagine what the country would be -- with Donald Trump as our president," Ginsburg told The New York Times in a July 2016 interview in her Supreme Court chambers. "For the country, it could be four years. For the court, it could be -- I don't even want to contemplate that." Ginsburg doubled down on those comments in a subsequent interview with CNN, calling Trump a "faker," and adding: ""He has no consistency about him. He says whatever comes into his head at the moment. He really has an ego."

no need to impeach, she'll be gone within the next 2 years.  this whole kavanaugh debate has revealed the democrats' true colors and was just what the republicans needed to completely eliminate any chance of a "blue wave" next month.  the people are finally seeing the truth in that it was all a political hit job to take down a good man.  i predict republicans will gain 1-2 seats in the senate and when baby ruth taps out trump will nominate an even more conservative judge to the court who will be confirmed much easier than this shameful exhibition.

Not that it matters now but these two sure are on the payroll...

Several women have also approached lawmakers to share their stories of surviving sexual assault, most notably two who confronted Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) in an elevator before the Senate Judiciary Committee voted on Kavanaugh.

One of the women who confronted Flake, Ana Maria Archila, works for the Center for Popular Democracy, which is funded in part by Soros.

Archila is an executive director of the Center for Popular Democracy; she had spent the previous week in Washington engaged in protests against Kavanaugh. Gallagher is a 23-year-old activist with the group. The Center is a left-wing group that is heavily funded by George  Soros?s Open Society Foundations. Indeed, as of 2014, the Open Society was one of the three largest donors to the group.


Soros provided the CPD with $130,000 from the Foundation to Promote Open Society in 2014 and $1,164,500 in 2015. Soros provided an additional $705,000 from the Open Society Policy Center in 2016.?

So, what percentage of these activists' foundations' budgets, would need to be from Soros' funds, for this to be considered a truthful statement?

When over 50% of the 2015 total budget is from Soros then yah, thats on the payroll.
 
Just stop the charade Trump enthusiasts. That's all I ask. Trump's sole purpose in mentioning Soros is because he's a big target of the Breitbart, Drudge, Fox, et al. crowd, and you know why. You're perpetuating this bigotry by defending it.

They are getting it from a website or something.
 
And the Koch Brothers and Asher Adelson are bogymen for the left...so what?  Is it not bigoted because they're white or Gasp... Jewish?

Adelsons contribution is documented by Bloomberg , and verified w election filings . He is the single biggest donor for the midterms . There are also various inside the who?re house sources detailing his influence on the state department  .

As opposed to the tinfoil hat theories about Soros every time the right wing swamp needs a monster  :)
 
Collins' reasoning is fair, for the most part, but deeply disingenuous in many areas, if not purposely naive. Kavanaugh's on the Federalist list for a reason. They expect him to vote a certain way on many issues. To suggest otherwise, is deeply dishonest.

It what it is. But that no limit scope that Flake wanted never happened. Also, what about Ramirez? There?s a picture of Ramirez and Kavenaugh in the same picture at Yale.

A brief history comment. Nixon nominated 2 people for Supreme Court and they didn?t go through. I can also name Democrat presidents that nominated people and they didn?t go through. So the notion if the President nominates a person to the Supreme Court. The person should automatically be on the Supreme Court is false. The person should be fit and qualified for the position.

Another example is George W Bush nominated Miers to the Supreme Court. As a matter of fact she withdrew her self.

?President Bush says Harriet Miers asked him to withdraw her Supreme Court nomination because of Senate pressure to release internal White House documents in which she offered him confidential advice. But the president's nomination of his White House counsel, who had no prior experience as a judge, faced opposition almost from the moment it was announced.?

Right, but the sole limitation is political risk/blowback. The Reps are betting that getting this SCOTUS nominee in now, is worth any political negatives that may result. Make no mistake, they know the House is gone, and they're concerned about the Senate.
 
Saw  a good observation that Collins through her speech , went out of her way to try to ingratiate herself to Republicans, in an effort to fend off a GOP primary challenge. She decided she'd rather have an easier primary battle and a more difficult general election one, rather than the other way around.

Because the stall will never end. You watch, more allegations will come out and more calls for longer investigation no matter how outrageous the claim.  Stall, stall, stall. Now they are crying foul that an "artificial" time frame of a week is biased and just plain mean.  This will never end unless the Repubs have the nuts to put an end to it and just have the vote.

i just looked into my crystal ball.  i see us at october 5th having not learned anything more than we know today.  kav gets a vote on the senate floor and he gets 54 votes - all R vote yes and 3 dems in R states vote to appeal to their voters.

quote me in 1 week.

my crystal ball needs a little calibration, but the result remains the same!

Solution: have debates, and then make it a popular vote. Hehhe
 
Kavanaugh should be introduced now, as a Supreme Court Justice, Yale undergrad, Yale Law School, and Renate alumnist.

He can't object, right? This is a term of endearment, clearly. Get your sick minds out of your libtard gutter!

Alumnius, alumnist...

Gee,your spelling is as shitty as Kavanaugh's.
 
hope it was worth it.  he could be in jail longer than kavanaugh will be on the supreme court!

Staffer who 'doxed' GOP senators faces nearly 50 years in federal prison

The former Democratic congressional staffer who posted personal information about Republican senators online faces nearly 50 years in prison.

Jackson Cosko, a 27-year-old Washington, D.C., resident, was arrested Wednesday by U.S. Capitol Police when he was caught sneaking into the offices of Sen. Maggie Hassan, D-N.H., after 10 p.m. Tuesday and using an aide?s computer and log-in.

He was charged with five federal offenses: making public restricted personal information, making threats in interstate commerce, unauthorized access of a government computer, identity theft, and witness tampering.

The criminal complaint against him also charges him with second-degree burglary and unlawful entry, which are both criminal offenses in D.C.

Not just right wing Americans dislike Mr. Soros. Soros is a global currency manipulator. Ask the families of the thousands of Thai and Malaysians who committed suicide in 1997 what they think of Mr. Soros. One of the reasons the RMB is not freely tradable is the PRC trying to protect itself from global manipulators like Soros.
