The left failed to defeat Kavanaugh in 2018, but they did not shed their radicalism — they only got more strident.
When Justice Samuel Alito’s draft majority opinion for the Supreme Court in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization was leaked to the news media, it came as a shock. How could such a thing happen? Are the norms that keep our government together unraveling? For those who have followed the Supreme Court over the last several years, there is unfortunately more continuity to outrageous behavior than is often recognized.
Immediately after the leak, we learned that the sort of left-wing dark money groups that brought the Supreme Court confirmation process to new lows with their antics with Justice Kavanaugh’s hearings are at it again. An outfit calling itself “Ruth Sent Us” has posted a map with the home addresses of what it calls “the six extremist justices” and organized protests next week at their personal homes. The radical left is now doxxing Supreme Court justices.
Do you remember the circus of obstruction and vilification that the left inflicted on the nation in opposition to Brett Kavanaugh’s 2018 nomination? We documented it in our book, “Justice on Trial.” Protesters funded by dark-money groups, including Planned Parenthood, shouting down the Senate Judiciary Committee and having to be dragged out by police, with over 200 arrests? Protesters dressed like handmaids converging on Capitol Hill to communicate that Kavanaugh’s confirmation would hurl America into a dark dystopia?
And how about the Democratic senators who went along, waging scurrilous arguments to try to delegitimize the nominee from the outset and interrupting their own hearings on the Senate Judiciary Committee 63 times before the first lunch break?...

As a society, “we are becoming addicted to wanting particular outcomes, not living with the outcomes we don’t like!” Thomas said.
“We can’t be an institution that can be bullied into giving you just the outcomes you want. The events from earlier this week are a symptom of that.”

ANYONE threatening a SCOTUS judge or their family members at their homes should be shot on sight. Where are the competent snipers when we need them? ThESE DEVILS ARE DOMESTIC TERRORISTS!
“Kavanaugh, you have released the whirlwind” - Chuck from Brooklyn
Authors are disgusted with winning tactics.
Remember what Trumps EC Electors were subjected to. The rats found out who they were and they were put through hell. Nothing happened to the perps. So here we are.
Don’t be surprised if Kavanaugh caves, he has shown by his previous rulings that he has no backbone.
I hope I’m wrong.
If he does, he will have proven to the mob that they can get their way through threats and violence.
Which is a really, really, really bad precedent to set.
Beat downs are in a order
Roberts should not have let the anti-Kavanaugh witnesses get away with perjury.
Roberts is an owned littleman.
