Kavanaugh Fight Was No ‘Win’

The left savaged a man’s reputation and America’s institutions—and paid no price for its indecency.

When the Senate confirmed Brett Kavanaugh 50-48, it was a victory over American politics’ most vicious smear campaign in decades. Or was it? The left failed to keep Judge Kavanaugh off the Supreme Court, but it did irrevocable damage to his reputation and to America’s institutions—for which it has paid no price.

The left opposed Judge Kavanaugh from the start. Minutes after President Trump named him, leftist groups had dispatched protesters to the Supreme Court’s steps. Weeks later, activists flew into Washington, where they received training in how to disrupt the confirmation hearings and cash to pay bail. Hundreds were arrested even before Christine Blasey Ford’s claim of teenage sexual assault became public.

Democratic Judiciary Committee members flagrantly disregarded Senate rules and norms. Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California circumvented the well-established confidential investigative process designed to protect accusers. Instead she sat on Ms. Ford’s allegations until it was clear that other means wouldn’t block Judge Kavanaugh’s confirmation. More than a month earlier, Mrs. Feinstein had personally connected Ms. Ford to Debra Katz, a high-powered—and highly partisan—Washington lawyer. Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey violated longstanding Senate rules by releasing confidential documents, then boasted: “This is about the closest I’ll probably ever have in my life to an ‘I am Spartacus’ moment.” 

Sen. Kamala Harris of California baselessly insinuated that Judge Kavanaugh was hiding improper discussions about the Mueller investigation. Later, Sen. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii was heard crowing to Ms. Harris about what a great idea it had been to have Ms. Ford wear a blue suit and ask for a Coca-Cola —staged parallels to Anita Hill’s teal suit and unproven 1991 claim that future Justice Clarence Thomas once made an untoward comment about a Coke can. 

Journalists avidly joined the anti-Kavanaugh campaign. The Washington Post published the first interview with Ms. Ford, in which it obscured her shifting details about the number of boys and girls present on the night of the purported assault. The New Yorker ran a lengthy story on an allegation against Judge Kavanaugh that a Yale classmate offered “after six days of carefully assessing her memories and consulting with her attorney.” 

NBC News sat for weeks on its own reporting that showed a supposed witness provided by attorney Michael Avenatti denied his account of her allegations. When two women angrily confronted then-Sen. Jeff Flake, an Arizona Republican, in an elevator, CNN correspondents praised them uncritically without reporting that one was a professional activist. 

There has been little accountability for all this dishonesty and unprofessionalism. The Judiciary Committee referred some false accusers to the Justice Department, but none have been prosecuted. The Senate hasn’t investigated the leak of Ms. Ford’s accusation. The Ethics Committee reviewed Mr. Booker’s violations of confidentiality and “determined that no further action is appropriate.”

The media’s malpractice no doubt has contributed to a general climate of distrust, but no one was fired or humiliated for throwing out journalistic standards. Instead, journalists gave each other awards for their one-sided coverage. 

True, four Democratic senators who voted against Justice Kavanaugh were defeated last November. One of them, Missouri’s Claire McCaskill, said later that she’d been hurt by “the spectacle that occurred.” But those who orchestrated the spectacle remain in office, and Sen. Harris has emerged as a leading contender for the Democratic presidential nomination.

If you think the Kavanaugh battle ended in victory, ask yourself what will happen if Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s seat becomes vacant. Is there any chance the left would treat a Trump nominee with an iota of decency or restraint?

The bigger the risk, the bigger the reward.  

Biden is a joke and the backlash to a black woman president will be worse than Obama.  Don’t get me wrong, I’ll be happy with President Harris and I’d find some satisfaction in seeing the racists lose their fucking minds but I actually see Bernie and Liz as the safer plays.  Even the polls are starting to reflect this, but electability is bullshit, especially right now.

Hugo WTF?  The racists have won if you have this attitude.  JFC

When did Lindsey Graham become such a major ass hole? I used to think he was a basically decent guy, with some sense of understanding and caring, but it's like his personality took a major downward turn. I don't get it. Is this all about getting reelected? I hope South Carolina get's a spine and smarts and gets rid of this jerk.

You can hope in one hand and shit in the other, see which one fills up first.

Shit, sorry dude. I saw the profile pic while distracted and thought it was Zavala. I retract the accusation with apology and would delete it, but it's too late. 

Jesus, go edit it.  Being mixed up with Zavala will leave a mark.

Do you know what you sound like?

You mean like someone excited about the future of the new GOP with guys like DeSantis crushing it in the minors and getting ready for 2024. 

The good news for DeSantis: A new St. Pete Polls survey says that’s still true in June.

Floridian-Partners-Ad-1_728x90.jpg

The poll of 3,095 Florida voters, conducted over Father’s Day weekend, found DeSantis with a plus-34 job approval rating.

That includes 58 percent who say DeSantis is acing it and 24 percent who are wagging their fingers at the first-termer. The balance is holding back judgment.

Unsurprisingly, Republican voters make up the bulk of his base, with 81 percent saying they approve of his performance thus far. Independent voters are also in his camp by a 58-22 percent margin.

There has been some slippage among registered Democrats. However, the temperature across the aisle has yet to dip from lukewarm to tepid.

DeSantis is just eight points underwater among those voters, 24 percent of them are still holding back judgmen

The new GOP is the party of open and unabashed racism.

There's no going back from that.

Totally agree and I tried immediately to edit after seeing his post, but it was already too late. Apologized here and via PM and pos repped him twice to make up for it as best I could.

Hillary is eminently hateable by the Rs thanks to 3 decades of talk radio and Fox. However, a big part of that indoctrination has been demonizing anything librul.

Calling the D nominee a Socialist a few thousand times will make many undecideds pull the lever for Trump.

If he could make it all about the liberals, he wouldn’t still be ranting about Hillary, and there wouldn’t be “lock her up” chants at his rallies.  

He’s made her, or at least a hatred of her, a part of his identity.

She's the D voodoo doll for Trump and his supporters in which they can stick pins. It's like Build the Wall. He could use Lock Her Up for the next 4 elections, and the Trumpkins would drink that kool-aid. 

Calling the D nominee a Socialist a few thousand times will be the cherry on top of his campaign.

Yeah, but they tried all this shit for the midterms and it didn’t really work so well.  The Republican campaign strategy is basically, “Yes, we really think you are THAT stupid.”  Trump has said it himself, “you can only keep the con going for so long before people catch on.”

That’s why I expected him to not run again, proclaim himself the champ, and then claim he would have won had he run and that the republican won because of him/would have won if they listened to him. He took his narcissism in another direction. Thinks he’s unbeatable.

Well they are putting it in the storefront window now. This is where we are in this country now. Racism is back in the mainstream and the Trumpkins are power-scootering all over the place with it.

Any dictator or wanna-be dictator singles out an enemy. Dotard started with Hillary. It was effective. Building on that he targeted the media. Made them an enemy.of the people. 

He has at various times targeted opposition politicians, but his two big ones are still Hillary and the media. It has yet to fail him with his base. These people are just awful who follow lock-step with him.

I hope there’s a shocking twist to end the season. Like maybe Donald gets lost in JFK’s underground booty call tunnel while trying to find the ketchup for his steak, Pence is about to be sworn-in but at the last second Jared and Ivanka find Trump while they themselves get lost trying to escape back to Manhattan. Hilarity ensues as they just stop the ceremony in the knick of time. Then Trump orders the immediate execution of his entire cabinet. The end!

Stay tuned for season 4!

My fantasy is Hope Hicks gets a private meeting with Trump to "steam his pants". When they're finally alone, right when he drops trou, she pulls off her face and reveals she's actually Arya Stark. 

Hey, I've been up 37 1/2 hours straight. Cut me some slack.
