On hot-button questions, Mr. Kavanaugh has trended conservative on issues such as abortion, indicating a narrow view of what constitutes an undue burden on a womans right to end her pregnancy, and the Obamacare contraception mandate, though his take on the mandate was somewhat more conciliatory than right-wing activists would prefer. A nemesis of the administrative state, he has frequently voted against the Environmental Protection Agency, arguing that programs to regulate greenhouse-gas emissions and cross-border air pollution went further than the law allowed; in each case he took an overly narrow view of the statute. Mr. Kavanaugh seems less willing to grant executive agencies leeway in interpreting Congresss instructions than the Supreme Court has typically shown. Senators must explore how far this philosophy extends.
Good!
Elections have consequences.
WE need RBG to die. Millions of lives are at stake!
They shouldn’t take care. Stick it up their ass. Let the chips fall where they may. Even if it’s against us.
ultimately, the best measure of Kavenaugh’s worth is how much the leftist hate him. WaPoo’s whining is a pretty good start ...
Then democrats should be pleased to have more justices who interpret the non-political Constitution rather than interpreting Politics and writing laws that support one side's politics. So I am very happy for the democrats, as they are getting what they say they want. But I suspect they are lying about what they want.
Yep.
Stick to the list. Keep nominating conservatives.
Thomas should go ahead and retire. Get antoher 30 years with a conservative - though he’ll be missed.
RBG is about ready to die at age 85. That’ll be two more picks for Trump.
After mid-terms he should pardon Flynn and Manafort as well. Screw up. Just pull the plug on the farce.
“he shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint ... Judges of the supreme Court...”
That’s what the Constitution says. Nothing about anal insertion. Do you hate the Constitution?
Oh the horror!
Saye do what?
Throw in Breyer too. He votes just as bad, just not nearly as obnoxious
Easier to "fundamentally transform" America by 5-4 votes in the Supreme Court than by getting legislatures to vote for laws that most of the public doesn't like.
Apparently this last term of the Court, the Justice that voted most like Neil Gorsuch was none other than Anthony Kennedy. So how exactly would another Neil Gorsuch “dramatically shift the court to the right”?
This hysteria, as per usual from the Left, has no markings of being genuine.
Music to my ears.
Conservatives should lie back and break out the popcorn.
The fake news media is doing another number on Trump and thats why I trust his decision.
He knows how to push their buttons.
I will translate this piece for anyone who doesn’t want to read the article.
“Waah, waah, waah. Oh, and waaaaaah.”
Washington Examiner: “Alan Dershowitz said Monday President Trump was approaching the process of selecting a replacement for Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy with the mindset that he’ll likely have the opportunity to nominate up to five justices to the highest court in the country.
“I think the president is looking at the big picture,” Dershowitz told CNN of a phone conversation he had with Trump a few days ago.”
Did they already have these articles written out for all four finalists?
“More than ever, the court is in danger of becoming viewed as an instrument of politics rather than an independent, nonpartisan branch of government.”
WaPo and the rest of the Left should know after decades of using the SCOTUS and courts in general to do exactly that...
Appointing judges is one of the benefits of winning elections...DJT campaigned on a promise he would select judges who would decide cases based on the law rather than their own personal ideology...Looks like he’s keeping that promise as well...
Now, immediate confirmation hearings...Not tired of winning yet!
Kavanaugh is entirely main stream.
Trouble is, NONE of the American NEWS MEDIA are main stream!
Lol!! You must be a Redditor!
