Cordray and Kavanaugh both worked at the law firm, Kirkland & Ellis, in Washington D.C. Both also clerked for retired U.S. Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy, though not at the same time.

After thinking about how nominee Kavanaugh answers questions, people in his position undoubtedly have to be very careful how they answer questions.

So I’m glad that Kavanaugh was undoubtedly thoroughly vetted by Pres. Trump.

I’d say likely ruling that it is a states’ rights issue and states should vote individually. Isn’t there a possibility of them ruling on that?

I’m sorry, but Brett Kavanaugh gives of the stench of “evolution on the bench.”

Yep, I wasn't very happy with this pick.

Discussions concerning possible overturn of Roe v. Wade (RvW) sidestep the concern that post-17th Amendment (17A) ratification RvW was arguably a major constitutional scandal.

More specifically, RvW is a phony, vote-winning “constitutional right” wrongly legislated from the bench imo, as opposed to established by the consent of Constitution’s Article V state supermajority like all other constitutionally enumerated rights were.

And there are other federally protected “rights" that post-17A Congress can’t justify under enumerated powers imo.

In fact, not only are people possibly in prison for violating vote-winning federal civil rights laws that Congress never had the express constitutional authority to make, but consider the following.

The congressional record shows that constitutional lawmaker Rep. John Bingham had clarified the states had never expressly constitutionally delegated to the feds the specific power to make peacetime punitive civil laws until the 14th Amendment was ratified.

"Our Constitution never conferred upon the Congress of the United States the power - sacred as life is, first as it is before all other rights which pertain to man on this side of the grave - to protect it in time of peace by the terrors of the penal code within organized states; and Congress has never attempted to do it. There never was a law upon the United States statute-book to punish the murderer for taking away in time of peace the life of the noblest, and the most unoffending, as well, of your citizens, within the limits of any State of the Union, The protection of the citizen in that respect was left to the respective States, and there the power is to-day [emphasis added].” —Rep. John Bingham, Congressional Globe. (See bottom half of third column.)

Bingham was making the point that the 14th Amendment gave Congress new powers to make punitive civil laws, such laws limited to strengthening only those rights that the states amend the Constitution to expressly protect from abridgment by state actors.

Again, the corrupt, post-17A ratification Congress is making vote-winning civil rights protections laws that it cannot justify under constitutionally enumerated powers.

In fact, instead of petitioning the states for new powers to make specific civil rights laws, the post-17A Congress seems to like to bypass the Article V amendment process by confirming activist Supreme Court justices who legislate such laws from the bench, RvW an example imo.

"It is easier to get forgiveness than it is to receive permission." —Rear Admiral Grace Murray Hopper, U.S. Navy's Chips Ahoy magazine (July 1986)
