Republicans need to understand that this type of treatment will happen to any conservative nominee from President Trump.

Brett Kavanaugh is about as squeaky clean as you can get.

Time for Grassley to call the committee into session and vote.

Enough games. The longer this goes on the more the leftists can make of it. The weekend will give the fascists WAY to much time to pontificate and scheme. Get it over and move on to the next shiny object.

IF the left manages to derail this OVER qualified candidate there will never be another conservative justice appointed to the court ever again.

So Ed Wehlan presented his evidence, via twitter, and while compelling, really fucked up in his presentation.

He ended up deleting the whole thread and apologizing for it and the contents. Not apologizing for what it proves but for implicating others without direct evidence.

Getting real tired of the “nothing to gain” line as some sort of “proof” that she is telling the truth.

Media attention, Book deal, status, $$$... regardless of the outcome. If it were to actually block the appointment she would be the darling of the resist movement and cash in even more, no “nothing to gain” here... Roll Eyes

Regardless of the fate of Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination, the Senate should censure the ranking Democratic member of the Judiciary Committee, Dianne Feinstein. Her deception and maneuvering, condemned across the political spectrum, seriously interfered with the Senate’s performance of its constitutional duty to review judicial nominations, and unquestionably has brought the Senate into “dishonor and disrepute,” the standard that governs these matters. As a matter of institutional integrity, the Senate cannot let this wrong go unaddressed.

Requested by the Senate Judiciary Committee, the infamous letter from Blassey-Ford has not been turned over by Feinstein.

She is a liar. Period. She actually does a disservice to real victims of abuse. Like the charge of racism I will no longer believe ANY charge of abuse. Show me video or shut up.

She is a leftist SJW intent on damaging an honorable man just because she hates this country and what it stands for. Ignore her and vote.

Feinstein will get hers. She sees the writing on the wall. If there is one thing a leftist fears the most it is the loss of power. It's like a drug to them. She will be replaced by a younger more American hating leftist and she knows it. And it is driving her crazy.

I don't care who replaces her, when she loses her power it will be like a death sentence for her.

It seened to me that Whelan drew inferences from available allegations. He must have learned where the others lived. He had the vague description “close to the club.” These aren’t proof directly, of course, but a plausible explanation.




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

Ed Whelan is an idiot...I would not be surprised if this mornings event's involved a brief phone chat with Mr. Garrett's attorney.

It'll be comical to see them chasing their tails when his next nominee, a woman, happens.

Are they going to accuse her of being amoral abusive slut? Now that would be entertaining to watch.

I have no idea if it was planned this way, but nevertheless, it is brilliant to have not nominated the woman this time and waited with her. Let the commies expend all of their ammo and when Ginsburg buys the farm their true nature will become apparent to everyone.

BTW, I hope to God that she does testify as I CAN'T WAIT to see Ted Cruz tear her a new one. Big Grin

President Trump:

Judge Brett Kavanaugh is a fine man, with an impeccable reputation, who is under assault by radical left wing politicians who don’t want to know the answers, they just want to destroy and delay. Facts don’t matter. I go through this with them every single day in D.C.


Mitch McConnell:

“President Trump has nominated a stunningly successful individual.”

“You’ve watched the fight. You’ve watched the tactics. But here’s what I want to tell you: in the very near future, Judge Kavanaugh will be on the United States Supreme Court,”

“So my friends, keep the faith. Don’t be rattled by all of this. We’re going to plow right through it and do our jobs,”

Anyone who ever attended a pool party during the 1980's, that had anyone there of high school age in Maryland or adjoining states, should inundate local authorities with witness reports.

See what they could glean from several hundred thousand reports.

The media needs to stop talking about this like it actually happened. It didn't. There was no assault, at least not involving Judge Kavanaugh. She could have been raped by the entire football team but guess what? I don't give a shit. It didn't involve Judge Kavanaugh.

The more the left cries wolf the less I give a shit.

Someone needs to start a hashtag vote now or something. Get on with it. Stop pandering to liars.

What the republicans fail to realize is that waiting gains nothing but loses everything.

“A good plan, violently executed now, is better than a perfect plan next week.” They need to go on the offense. For once.

Rip the bandaid off. Vote. In a week this will all be forgotten for the next big made up scandal.

Fucking cowards. I HATE cowards.

A question. Since the vote was scheduled and the leftists already got their week delay as per the rules, can Grassley schedule the vote for whenever he wants now? Or do they have to repeat the process again?
