Democrats have been going full on Barking Moonbat since the announcement of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. It hasn’t stopped. We get things like
- Who Is Brett Kavanaugh? Contrary to what supporters say, he’s no originalist.
- The Supreme Court Confirmation Charade
- The Evangelical Case Against Judge Kavanaugh
That’s just the NY Times today. And Alyssa Milano and her $30k+ custom fish tank brings her standing Very Serious with crossed arms
We know who Kavanaugh is because time and time again he’s shown us.
We need the @SenateDems to do everything they can to stop him.

Then Kamala Harris, who proves that this has nothing to do with Judge Kavanaugh, just being unhinged towards Trump
The president is an unindicted co-conspirator in federal crimes and he has nominated someone to the Supreme Court who believes a sitting president should never be indicted.
Retweet if you agree that Kavanaugh’s hearings should be delayed until these investigations are completed.

They can posture all the want: they have no power. There is no Gandalf coming to save them
Unborkable: Kavanaugh heads into confirmation hearings on cruise control
More than 30 years ago, Robert Bork’s nomination to the Supreme Court produced attention-grabbing hearings that took a toll on his already lackluster popularity with the viewing public.
“Bork came across on television as coldhearted and condescending,†the Washington Post’s Tom Shales wrote at the time. “He looked and talked like a man who would throw the book at you — and maybe like a man who would throw the book at the whole country.”
Bork’s nomination failed on the Senate floor by a vote of 42 to 58.
Yet when Circuit Judge Brett Kavanaugh takes his seat before the Senate Judiciary Committee at his Supreme Court confirmation hearings this week, he’ll face Republicans who are confident of collecting what may be the last significant reward of one-party rule before the midterm elections. Democrats have no clear path to stopping the installation of a justice who may solidify the court’s conservative majority for a generation.
On paper, Kavanaugh’s own personal unpopularity (among Democrats), his low-support positions on hot-button issues, the suspicions raised over withheld documents and the plague of scandal surrounding the president who appointed him may seem like the right combination of factors to produce a repeat of the Bork phenomenon. However, few in Washington expect anything so dramatic.
As much as the article attempts to link Kavanaugh to Bork, he’s going to sail through confirmation no matter what Democrats do.
Democrats are focusing on Kavanaugh’s positions casting doubt on the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act, opposing access to abortion and taking an expansive view of the power of the president. Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s office last week released the list of Democratic witnesses who will appear at the hearings, including experts on health care, reproductive rights, executive power and investigations of the president, as well as firearms, labor and environmental issues.
The Democrats will focus on abortion on demand through the whole process, as they’ve done so far, showing them to be the unhinged baby killing supporters they are. It won’t be a good look. But, there’s nothing they can do: Bretty Kavanaugh will be approved as a Supreme Court Justice by the end of the month.
