Kavanuts is a far right wing nut, and he replaced a lean-right centrist. I'd expect the balance to be very different now just on that consideration.
Democrats go after Kavanut's records: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/co...-service-bush-white-house-n1039656?yptr=yahoo
Yeah, too bad there wasn't a chance to ask him about his work as a professional hack in the Clinton years and then open up a line of inquiry about Trump (and the GOP as a whole) using the Supreme Court as a patronage gig. That's what ambassadorships are for. EDIT: ah, during the Bush years. Still. . .
This goes one of two ways. 1. Dems: Give us these records please according to law xyz you have to provide records to congress when requested. Executive branch: No ha ha u r cucks. Dems: All righty then. 2. Dems: Give us these records etc. Executive branch: Here you go. Dems: Wow this guy is corrupt af and perjured himself in his hearings he should step down. Executive: lol no. Dems: All righty then.
That has no bearing on the reality we live in. It's like a scientific fact - you know, there are methane oceans on Titan! - which affects us here on planet Earth not at all. Yes, in theory, impeachment is how you would get rid of a Supreme Court justice if they had, say, perjured themselves in their confirmation hearing, but come on, you think this Congress is going to actually impeach someone?
It's not because it's complicated. It's a hypothetical alternate universe scenario. In some universe, when a Supreme Court justice or President commits an offense which the people, through their elected representatives in Congress, find serious enough to warrant removal, they would start the impeachment process. In our universe, when that happens, the complicit Republicans who run the Senate won't convict their guy, and the spineless Democrats who run the House refuse to consider it as an option because they don't think they can win.
It is not "in theory." It is the actual method for removing a sitting US Supreme Court judge. Your theory was to ask the Executive for a sitting Supreme Court judge to "step down." THAT has no bearing in reality. I did not say that "this Congress" would do so. It is a lifetime appointment, it could happen in a future Congress.
Yeah now. During the vetting process our favourite turtle necked senator from Kentucky stopped anyone looking at his records. Then the dick waving, woman assaulting, beer drunkard got a free pass. I Like Beer !!!
Fyp. The above is 100% true. We can argue that the House should investigate and impeach anyway to get things on the public record, or not. If you think they should, then add spineless in front of Dems above. But there is almost completely certainty (a99.9% chance) the Senate will do nothing, and therefore the House Dems know they can’t win. *I’m reserving a 0.1% chance of impeachment in the event that there is video footage of Kav running a 12 year old girls slave auction or something like that.
If they’re not unborn people, they’re on their own. They probably tricked Brat into having too many beers, because we all know he loves beer.
I'm not arguing for 8 as age of consent.. But again, out of the womb, they stop being babies needing protection and become temptresses to pure young Christian males of 40+.
This could be a real disaster for democrats and democracy as RGB gets checked for Cancer. Edit: Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg this week had underwent a procedure to treat a tumor from her pancreas, a court spokesperson tellsWashington Post reporter Robert Barnes. According to the Court, “the tumor was treated definitively” with radiation “and there is no evidence of disease elsewhere in the body.”
Too old. It's going to be a 45 year old who spent his 20s doing hackwork for the George W. Bush administration and his 30s coming up with semi-legal means of undermining Obama policies.
