Thursday afternoon, Kavanaugh will have a chance to tell his side of the story, and it will be up to the Committee members to vote on whether to move forward with his confirmation. That being said, even if Kavanaugh is confirmed to the Supreme Court, he may not be totally out of the woods.

Like a president or any other federal official, a Supreme Court justice can be impeached under the Constitution. As it says in Article II, Section 4:

They buried a small detail in the last paragraph - it takes 67 Senate for to impeach. That will never happen.

When the ‘rats gain back control of Congress, they will indeed move to impeach Kavanaugh.

Do the Democrats actually want to start impeaching judges? That will likely go as well as killing the filibuster, and sooner, too.

Removing Supreme Court Justices on frivolous charges is much like removing the duly-elected President of the United States because you can’t get over losing at the polls. That is a line democrats would be prudent not to cross.

I wonder if the bull-dyke and the wise-latina could be removed this way?

A think a more probable outcome is if the D’s take the control the Congress and WH after 2020 they will pack the SCOTUS.

They’ll need 51 votes in the House and 2/3rds in the Senate to oust him? Fat chance that happens.

These dumb@sses don’t realize how much this fires up the base?

Amazing how totally incompetent these democratic Senators come across since Trump has called them out for what they are.

George Bush would have retracted the nomination at the first sign of resistance. The first time.

This is the just media trying to keep the Resistance moving, that is all.

Pure nonsense

Ouster requires concurrence of 2/3 of the Senate. So the Dems are going to have to put their vote-manufacturing engine on overdrive for the next few elections to make this more than just a theoretical exercise.

If that attempt started Congress could read the documents and statement transcripts by the light of the burning cities of America.
The ladies and gentleman of America will have taken off their white gloves and dropped their good Sunday manners by then.

The Democrat Party believes that democracy is un-democratic.
