Judiciary Committee sets date for vote on Kavanaugh confirmation
The Washington Times ^ | September 4, 2018 | Alex Swoyer

Senate Republicans laid out a fast schedule Tuesday for action on Judge Brett Kavanaugh, setting up a Sept. 20 vote in committee which would be followed by action on the full Senate floor the final week of the month.

Barring hiccups, that schedule would put Judge Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court before its Oct. 1 start of the new session.

Countdown clock to Sessions’ firing just ticked off a few more clicks. Predictions? Oct 2 is too obvious...I say, Oct 5th. That’s Friday.

After today’s hearing, they should have set the date as 7 September. And THAT would be generous. Does anyone think the Democrats on the committee are willing to consider ANYTHING?

excellent, since nobody has demonstrated a single thing wrong with the nominee

and the D disruptions are DISGUSTING! just like how the Nazis disrupted the Weimar Republic in Germany......

they should NOT be permitted to interrupt or delay the senate’s normal governance processes

Time for the FR prayer warriors to kick into high gear.

I just read this thread and the article at the link.

The left hates this guy with a passion, which means he’s really good for this country. They are totally unhinged over it and we need to pray that the eyes of everyone in this country are opened to what the left is all about and it
s NOT the constitutional government that we started out as.

Brett Kavanaugh stares down his critics as he finally gets his say at chaotic SCOTUS confirmation...

Beautiful. We get to watch 3 weeks of the Democrat Organized Crime Family in a massive temper tantrum, followed by a vote to Confirm Kavanaugh while poking a stick in eyes of the Democrat Senators from Red States. To be followed by a push in the Red Zone to get across the goal line for the Election Day. Sounds like a good plan to me.

This is the same party that ram-rodded the Affordable Care Act through Congress without time for reading or debate. We had to pass it to find out what was in it. Seems to me, by dem logic, we need to confirm Kavanaugh to find out what he believes.

The very same Rats who didn’t read the Obamacare bill are insisting that it would be wrong to vote on Kavanaugh before they have read all 500,000 pages about him.

The minority has the ability to delay the vote for a week for any reason.

And they will certainly do that (see below stories).

So we can plan on a vote in committee the following week, with a senate floor vote the week thereafter.

I don’t see Kavanaugh confirmed by October 1st.
