He’s got to get confirmed, so he has to speak of diversity, hiring women, etc. to take those tools away from the left, or at least to reduce their impact.

I agree. Just the way it is having to deal with Dem maggots.

And a few snips from the article:

President Donald Trump Nominates Pro-Life-Friendly Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court

President Donald Trump tonight has nominated pro-life friendly federal appeals court Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. Kavanaugh has taken the pro-life side in important cases and has very strong pro-life Bona fides — prompting one leading pro-life attorney to say he would be an excellent addition to the Supreme Court.

President Donald Trump tonight has nominated pro-life friendly federal appeals court Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. Kavanaugh has taken the pro-life side in important cases and has very strong pro-life Bona fides — prompting one leading pro-life attorney to say he would be an excellent addition to the Supreme Court.

Kavanaugh sits on the DC Circuit Court. That is the main federal appeals court — often considered a stepping stone to the Supreme Court as it hears some of the most prominent cases, including ones filed against federal legislation like Obamacare. So it’s not a huge surprise President Trump selected a member from it.

Kavanaugh worked as associate counsel to pro-life President George W. Bush and he came out of the era of Reagan judicial appointees. His rulings have been said to be more like Scalia than Kennedy, however.

Sarah Pitlyk, a former law clerk to Judge Kavanaugh and special counsel for the Thomas More Society, which is a leading pro-life legal group, says Kavanaugh has an excellent record and perhaps the best record of any of the finalists president Trump is considering. As she writes:

On the vital issues of protecting religious liberty and enforcing restrictions on abortion, no court-of-appeals judge in the nation has a stronger, more consistent record than Judge Brett Kavanaugh. On these issues, as on so many others, he has fought for his principles and stood firm against pressure. He would do the same on the Supreme Court.

The pro-life attorney is not the only Kavanaugh fan. As Newsmax reports, Ed Meese is a huge supporter.

Ed Meese, President Reagan’s Attorney General and one of his closest associates, has known Kavanaugh for decades and confirmed he has been a solid Reaganite as a judge.

“I know Brett Kavanaugh reasonably well and think highly of him,” Meese told Newsmax.

“He is a very able guy, an originalist who is faithful to the Constitution and believes in it.”
