The reason for this is that Democrats have lost power in all branches of government over the last 10 years. They are fighting tooth and nail to get it back, and this is their strategy.

Otherwise, nobody would care that Brett Kavanaugh may have had a few too many beers when he was in college.

Surely someone as prestigious as Ford would have some sort of online presence from past lectures, op-ed's, feed back from students, etc. Not a lot is out there other than current info.

Take this with a grain of salt...

The links don't work. Her history has absolutely been scrubbed from the internet. No doubt. She is a PROFESSOR. No online presence AT ALL? Give me a break.

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a known critic of President Trump, publicly stated that she doesn't believe the country is currently in good hands (under President Trump).

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.ca5fc27d6b89

Judges of the Supreme Court must take two oaths before executing the duties of the office, the Constitutional Oath and the Judicial Oath.

The Judicial Oath text reads:

I, _________, do solemnly swear or affirm that I will administer justice without respect to persons, and do equal right to the poor and to the rich, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties incumbent upon me as _________, according to the best of my abilities and understanding, agreeably to the constitution and laws of the United States. So help me God.

RBG took an oath to be impartial, but is she?

This is 100%, all about Roe v. Wade. Gorsuch wasn't a threat to it. Kavanaugh is.

Let me accuse you of rape. I bet money you don't break out into "The Sound of Music"
He was mild compared to the brow beating I would have presented.
You must have lived an entitled and sheltered life. Good for you.

Just like in Divorce Court - if you are honest and play nice, you lose!

So the Dems' timeline why BK is unfit for SCOTUS (ordered in timeline):
1. He's too much of a conservative/biased judge
2. He's a rapist
3. He's a rapist and a kidnapper
4. He's a drunk
5. He's not mentally fit to sit on the SCOTUS


So next week we'll have a kidnapping, mentally unstable, raping, drunk conservative Justice confirmed?



I would love to be a fly on the wall when Justice Kavanaugh can weigh in on liberal cases.

Yea, cause standing up for yourself is such a bad thing, yet being drunk WHILE sitting currently on the SC and falling a sleep is all good with the left....
