There Are No ‘Credible Allegations’ Against Kavanaugh
Leftists are trying to kick the Senate confirmation for a Supreme Court nominee down field and past the November elections. They have shown they will do so at any cost. While compelling emotionally, Ms. Ford has no witnesses and no facts to back up her story.
There was no legitimate reason the allegations were not summarily evaluated, and a Judiciary Committee vote taken this week.
I was honored to be able to attend yesterday’s Kavanaugh hearing – a hearing that should never have taken place. It was intense, dramatic, emotional, and outrageous, but nothing changed. The allegations are not sufficient to derail Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination.
Leftist law breaking, rule breaking, violence, and disruption have already marred the public Kavanaugh confirmation hearings. The Senate has allowed this circus to continue, and in the process has delayed a timely confirmation vote on Judge Kavanaugh.
The vote to confirm can’t come soon enough. That the Senate hasn’t voted yet is shameful.
The Senate Judiciary Committee issued a statement that it will request that the administration instruct the FBI to conduct a supplemental FBI background investigation with respect to the nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to be an Associate Justice on the Supreme Court.
The Senate request was for the FBI to investigation “credible allegations.” There are no “credible allegations.”
Nevertheless, President Trump authorized the supplemental investigation as requested.
If fairly conducted, this “supplemental investigation” could have been over yesterday. The Committee requested that the FBI investigation take no more than a week. This will not satisfy Leftists trying to destroy Kavanaugh.
It is urgent you let your Senators know how you feel about the Kavanaugh confirmation process. You can reach your Senators at 202-224-3121.
After witnessing the spectacle in person yesterday, the Senate owes Judge Kavanaugh an apology. And perhaps the best apology would be a vote finally to confirm him.
From a political perspective, would the Republicans have been better off confirming Kavanaugh (A) two weeks ago, or (B) next week?
The answer is (B) -- and in a big way.
Putting Kavanaugh in front of that Judiciary Committee on Thursday was a brilliant political move.
I've been saying for two weeks now that the longer this drags on, the better it is for the Republicans.
The Democrats have spent three months painting Kavanaugh as an evil bastard. As a result of the events of the last two weeks, they've now managed to do the impossible: They've turned him into a VICTIM.
What this man is being put through is nothing short of persecution. I hated the Democrats before, but I hate them with a white hot fire now.
