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 nations 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 Kavanaughs 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 nations 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.

Eric the red was given a pass for previous crimes by Sessions.
Hey Magoo! See what happens when justice is denied? They know they have nothing to fear, so foment unrest.
God I hate Sessions.
Former Attorney General Eric Holder questions legitimacy of Supreme Court after Kavanaugh confirmation ... REALLY? My dear sir, what are your bonafides to allow you to pass such judgement?
In addition to the issues already raised on this thread, let us all remember the last task that you performed for President Clinton as a Deputy Attorney General in 2000/2001. As Bill Clinton was exiting the White House as a bruised and battered SEX OFFENDER (if the Dems can say it, so can we!), Hillary was running her NY Senate Campaign from the same address even though she forcibly stated that they were BROKE from all the legal costs!
Then, surprise, surprise, surprise, the wife, Denise Rich, of a convicted tax evader & fugitive, Marc Rich, just happened to fund $100k into Hillary’s campaign AND $450k to the Clinton Presidential Library Foundation. Then, at the last midnight hour of Bill Clinton’s Presidency, organized by the same Eric Holder, came the full pardon of Marc Rich!
Corruption stink came to Eric Holder long before he was Obama’s AG!
Hes proposing insurrection. I say hes charged as such.
Frankly though - this is typical leftist diatribe and its dangerous.
When the conservatives win its illegitimate - Russians or bad laws or a stupid public. Recounts must be taken, results must be questioned. Of course as soon as they win all questioning must hes tooped and they have mandates to avoid laws regardless -
Theyve been running this playbook for 20 years and its time for them to stop or be stopped - you cannot run a civilization this way.

What does Janet Reno think?
The court that made these decisions commands no respect.
That’s OK. Half of America questioned the legitimacy of the Justice Department (Heck, the whole government) when Eric Holder was made Attorney General.
Well, who didn’t see this coming? We knew this was going to be their next step/smear.
Hurry November 6, 2018! I want Democrats crushed to DUST!
Told you that would be where the rhetoric would go, now that they lost...
Idiots. They are enemies of the state. The entire democrat party are traitors
Don’t forget voter intimidation....
I agree. He and many other RATs are scared to death of what’s coming up in a month and I believe they’re writing this tripe to try to cheer each other up.
Dream on!
Maybe Trump can make the FBI legitimate again after Fast and Furious. It will take much cleaning of current and former government employees.
“The Harridan”! I love that epithet when applied to her, never has it fit a recipient so snugly!
Merrick Garland can go F%$$ himself and so can you Eric.
Eric is mad because he isn’t part of the “Just-Us” Department anymore.
The only thing Holder would know about legitimacy is on his birth certificate; as in “FATHER—UNKNOWN”.
Most likely JOSEPH STALIN.
