Top House Democrat: We're Going To Investigate Kavanaugh If He's Confirmed (And Move To Impeach Him)
Townhall.com ^ | September 30, 2018 | Matt Vespa

Alas, there it is, folks; we have another chapter in the saga of the Brett Kavanaugh Supreme Court battle. The judge has been fighting a vicious character assassination campaign executed by the Left. They’ve weaponized the Me Too movement. Three women with accusations of sexual misconduct have engulfed this process in chaos. All three have no corroborating witnesses, all three have zero evidence, and all three came forward at the 11thhour. The allegations are thin. One of the accusers is represented by Michael Avenatti, so you where the credibility for that allegation rests. Nevertheless, the Democrats cannot allow a conservative judge take a seat, where that bloc will have a 5-4 majority for the next generation—and there’s Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who definitely won’t be filing that seat in that span of time. It’s all about stopping the dominoes from falling. Even if Kavanaugh if confirmed, which has been placed in doubt thanks to Sen. Jeff Fake (R-AZ) delaying the final vote until an FBI investigation can be conducted, the Democrats will still investigate him, and make the case to impeach him should he be seated. 

You see, as we’ve written before, this was never just going to endwhen the Senate holds the confirmation vote. Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), the ranking member on the House Judiciary Committee, told ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos this morning that if the Senate doesn’t investigate these claim, including perjury, because Democrats don’t believe Kavanaugh no matter what, then the House will get the ball moving on looking into these charges. 

Rep. Jerrold Nadler says if Brett Kavanaugh "is on the Supreme Court and the Senate hasn't investigated, then the House would have to" investigate "any credible allegation" of perjury and "things that haven't been properly looked into" https://t.co/dREdLgeUAk #ThisWeek pic.twitter.com/JimTTs1UvN— ABC News Politics (@ABCPolitics) September 30, 2018

And it won't be just on Kavanaugh,by the way. As you'd expect, if Democrats win in 2018, there will be hearing after hearing after hearing, and after all those...another hearing on a grocery list of subjects where the Democrats don't like Trump:

We are in a state of war with the Democrats, folks. And there are still many Republicans who fail to grasp that. It’s why we keep losing. It’s why we keep falling for their tricks. There is not one Democrat who will be satisfied with the FBI report that is about to drop in the coming days on these sexual misconduct allegations. Not one, which will be used to ask for another delay until the FBI conducts a more thorough review. Again, it’s a delay ploy, which Jeff Flake will probably fall for again because he’s the most insufferable Republican on the Hill right now. Thank you, Jeff Flake for possible dashing the largest conservative victory in a generation, but don’t expect a gift basket from the DNC. They still hate you—and now your own party hates you.

The Senate voted to acquit Chase of all charges on March 1, 1805. He is the only U.S. Supreme Court justice to have been impeached.

If they were smart they would go into the midterms warning the country against allowing too much power to reside in the hands of one man by giving him a friendly congress, but they’re too stupid to make that pitch.

Go ahead,

Impeach = political process - House

Acquit or Convict = legal - Senate

I say impeach and watch your thin majority go down in 2020 because the Senate will never convict based off of the "evidence" displayed so far.

Yes, they can impeach him if they have a majority in the House. The last USSC to be impeached was Samuel Chase, in March of 1804. The US Senate acquitted him.

Actually removing a sitting USSC Justice is another matter as it appears there's no actual mechanism for that.

I am not an expert: where does it say in the Constitution that a Supreme Court Justice can be impeached, convicted and removed from office? This shouldn’t be a matter of debate, it either can/can’t be done.

Not all surprising.Both DJT and Kavanaugh will be impeached if the Rats take the House.Of course neither of them will come within 100 light years of being removed from office.

This whole thing is so blatantly obviou a setup from the start...Anyone with any sense at all can see this...The democrat Senators all know this...ALL politicians KNOW this...Decent American people who have just one bone of honesty in their bodies should see this and be sickened...

I’ll say this right now...After all this, anyone who votes for a democrat is a totally worthless human being...

This has been a complete hoax with Ford.
Right off, the dems were against Kavanuagh
even before they found more liars to stall his nomination.
President Trump said,
If he were to nominate George Washington,
the crazed dems would try their best to find dirt on him!
