John Roberts asks federal judges to handle Kavanaugh complaints
The Washington Times ^ | October 10, 2018 | Mark Sherman

WASHINGTON — Chief Justice John Roberts is referring ethics complaints against new Supreme CourtJustice Brett M. Kavanaugh to federal judges in Colorado and neighboring states.

The complaints deal with statements Kavanaugh made during his confirmation hearings. They were filed originally with Kavanaugh’s old court, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.

"It is unclear what will come of the review by the 10th Circuit. The judiciary’s rules on misconduct do not apply to Supreme Court justices, and the 10th Circuit could decide to dismiss the complaints as moot now that Kavanaugh has joined the high court."

Talk about a nothing-burger.

Roberts should round-file the complaints and tell them to take it up with Congress. Only the House can impeach a sitting Justice.

Democrats throwing everything at the wall and hoping something sticks, or in this case trying to get someone else to do their investigations for them and hoping something impeachable is uncovered. Of course these lower court federal judges can’t actually take any action against Justice Kavanaugh anymore than Mueller can take action against President Trump, all they can do is issue a report of their findings to congress.

Scalia refused to recuse himself from a case late in his service on the high court - pointing out that there can be no adjudication of such a decision, because they are the end of the line, if you will. There is no place or structure to appeal to. Likewise, this is going nowhere. It does show you the tenacity of the anti Kavanaugh folk, and reinforces the need to point out in the mid-terms how bad it would be to have Jabba the Hut (Nadler) as House Judiciary Chairman.

Kavanaugh was not speaking as a judge, or about a case, or about any judicial matter. So complaints about his anger are invalid.

If we had ANY courage at all in our Political class, these would be trashed today

The complaints from the Leftist all boil down to “Kavaugh lied because we know what those statements in his 1983 year book really mean” It pure infantile historic stupidity. It time we STOP treating the deranged insanity of the Leftists as credible or legitimate.

One of the Fox News shows had this deranged Lunatic Leftist on and when he started in on his “Kavaugh lied” the host point blank asked him “so you know better then Judge Kavanaugh what his year book means” And the moron actually said “Yes, I do.....”.

They really are that infantile and insane. It time sane people stop treating this deranged fascist lunatics as anything but hysteric children in need of a long term time out.

Compromised Roberts should tossed this right in the trash. How would he have liked the SC giving standing to some rat taking a scalpel to his confirmation statements.

They have something real bad on Roberts, and he’s not to be trusted. He’s gonna do what his blackmailers tell him to do....
OdongoCare will forever be hung around his neck, like a rotting albatross, no matter what he does.

Roberts’ kids are now 18 or within months of being 18. Once 18, “they” can’t hold the adoption over his head anymore. If “they” go after the kids’ US citizenship as someone last night proposed, the kids can just claim DACA. Turn it back on the evil doers.

The Colorado judge was appointed by W. Bush. Ashley Kavanaugh was W’s secretary. This could very well be the best judge to handle these charges. It’s also best to get these charges in a court of law and be slapped down once and for all.

I wonder if the following are included in the complaints:

A complaint from Hirono because she finds it “hard to believe” that Kavanaugh was not aware of the “egregious and pervasive” accusations of sexual misconduct against Kozinski.

A complaint from Harris because Kavanaugh did not give a clear answer on whether he talked to someone from the Kasowitz Benson Torres law firm about the Mueller special counsel, and she has it from a reliable source that he did so.

A complaint from Booker because classified documents that he had to release showed that Kavanaugh lied about his thoughts on “racial profiling.”

Several complaints from Leahy that Kavanaugh lied about his involvement in or knowledge about various issues when he was an Associate General Counsel in the White House in 2006.

If all of the complaints are as baseless as these and the yearbook remarks, they should all be easily dismissed.

What really needs to be done here, if justice actually existed anymore, amd to really stimy or bog down the anti-American leftists, is for there to be simultaneous multi rail investigations, carried out by true patriotic federal agents, reaching deep into —

*Feinstein, the DNC, and even RNC members, activity with Chinese US political campaign funding, financial deals, and Chinese US policy influence —

*At the very same time truly loyal American agents dig deep into DNC/Obama/Clinton conspiracy with Russia in Uranium 1, massive Skolkavo tech transfer (included Microsoft, Amazon, Google etc) Russian DNC election financing (kickbacks to Clinton Foundation etc.), Russian Obama Clinton strategic foreign policy conspiracy (ie. missile shield gone, Skolkavo tech transfer, Uranium 1, Israel friendly Mubaerak removed, deliberate refugee wave, the Russian-Chinese-Pakistani infiltration into DNC servers and US government data base systems AND the cover-up —

*And the DNC illegally weaponizing US Intel services and the DOJ/FBI to control/determine who the next president of the US would be, including working with foreign governments (Russian/British/Chinese,?), And the grossly illegal effort to illegally remove connstitutionally ellected PDJT —

*The DNC near all-hands carefully manufactured conspiracy and false evidence against BK, involving the highly active left wing activist Ford, to further subvert our Judicial system —

*And to officially identify expose and carry out justice against violent and deadly anti-American DNC groups, including careful ivestigations of foreign and domestic anti-American funding and influence within American educational institutions.

If we could carry out these absolutley necessary investigations, thoroughly, simultaneously, largely under-cover, and quickly, at some point, the leftist staff members would be overwhelmed, and unable to stay ahead or investigators.

I’m pretty sure this move represented Roberts throwing these things in the trash, in a legally official looking way. The lower court can use them as blotter paper.
