Obama-era Attorney General Eric Holder reacted to the confirmation of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court Saturday by questioning the legitimacy of the court and arguing that it needed to regain the nation's trust.
Holder -- who served as the nation’s top lawyer under former President Barack Obama from 2009 to 2015 -- said the treatment of former Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland by Senate Republicans, as well as Kavanaugh’s confirmation, meant the legitimacy of the court was in question.
“With the confirmation of Kavanaugh and the process which led to it, (and the treatment of Merrick Garland), the legitimacy of the Supreme Court can justifiably be questioned,” he tweeted. “The Court must now prove - through its work - that it is worthy of the nation’s trust.”
He did not say how the court would go about doing that.
The Senate voted 50-48 to confirm Kavanaugh Saturday after a rancorous confirmation fight and a week-long FBI probe to settle concerns about sexual assault allegations that threatened his nomination. It marked the tightest successful Supreme Court confirmation vote in over 100 years.

That’s funny, this is the guy who served as AG for the Kenyanesian Usurper and ran guns to Mexican cartels in an effort to undermine the 2nd Amendment
the man who sold automatic weapons to mexican drug cartels and got a border officer killed and unknown numbers of Mexicans. The man who covered up the investigation of the sacramento mayor kevin johnson. The man who covered up the sue of the iRS to fight political opponents. He’s a perfect candidate for the democrats
Oh boy, here they go.
Planting the seeds of revolution, of a “fundamental transformation “...
Eric, you don’t know what you think you know and it’s a dangerous ignorance.

He can piss up a rope!
Has Obama-era Attorney General Eric Holder read the Constitution? Does he understand its context?
I question Obama-era Attorney General Eric Holder's legitimacy based on his record of corruption and racism as AG; he sold guns to criminals and has authored racist policies.
He should be ashamed of himself. He would be a good candidate to run for Democratic President of the USA, would he not?
Lock him up!
Well said, he’s about as evil as they come.
Um, no. Elections have consequences.
Eric can go stuff it.
Whatta total doofus.
Eric The Red, go to Mexico and recover your illegally transferred arms.
