DreamShipWrecked posted:This guy has Scalia's dick firmly in his mouth. Of course he does, Kavanaugh is just another arch-conservative hack judge. That's why Republicans are trying to support him with the "wholesome everyman soccer dad" and "nominees can't answer how they'd rule on specific issues" lines because the reality is he'd vote in lockstep with the conservative wing of the court.

There is just zero chance Senate republicans would remove one of their lifetime fascist's on the court for any reason.

He'll probably Alberto Gonzalez temporary-memory-loss his way through it to try and avoid that fate though. What are the odds that Democrats manage to get their hands on the document pile which McConnell and co buried as soon as they got a glimpse of it?

DreamShipWrecked posted:Gunchat is not going anywhere in this testimony unless they get off their stupid obsession with black guns and go into all guns overall. i don't want to get deep into gunchat, but this just isn't correct: people react viscerally to military-style weapons like an ar-15 and it's good politics to focus on the obsession with military-style weapons instead of the "self defense" and "hunting" weapons that supposedly are the basis for our need for toddlers to own guns.

I don't remember seeing his response to the Nike ad campaign mentioned ITT yet https://deadspin.com/toilet-president-goes-easy-on-nike-for-endorsing-colin-1828818056 quote:“I think it’s a terrible message that they’re sending and the purpose of them doing it, maybe there’s a reason for them doing it, but I think as far as sending a message, I think it’s a terrible message and a message that shouldn’t be sent. There’s no reason for it.” Oh OK then I guess. Also, the font Deadspin uses doesn't have a bold lowercase T

I agree that breaking the insane hold gun culture has on the country is key, and black guns are disproportionately held by utter tools, I just meant that in terms of what can be legislated it is not a good tack to take. But yes going off on gunchat is not a good derail.

You just do what is in your power to do and court packing falls under that rubric to me.

You just do what is in your power to do and court packing falls under that rubric to me. you need the public to support court-packing, even if you won enough seats to pull it off. both to persuade vulnerable senators/reps to go along with it, and to minimize the backlash so that those seats aren't lost, since you want to hold power as long as possible. court-packing is an extreme action to take, though it has become necessary, and you need to lay the groundwork as much as possible.

FEINSTEIN: "Can a sitting president be required to respond to a subpoena?" KAVANAUGH: "So that's a hypothetical question about uh what would be uh an elaboration or a difference for um US v Nixon's precise holding and I think going with the Justice Ginsberg opinion which is not really the Justice Ginsberg opinion alone: it's everyone's principle [very human smile] on the current Supreme Court and it's a matter of the canons of Judicial independence, I can't give you an answer on that hypothetical question."

that wasn't a great set of questions but recall from yesterday, Feinstein is by far the most moderate of the Senate dems on this committee. i think it's fine to get his initial equivocations on these things so Harris/Hirono/Blumenthal/Whitehouse can be more aggressive
