A constellation of left-wing activist groups cooked up a series of outlandish lies designed to keep Brett Kavanaugh off the Supreme Court. The national news media, as you will remember, joined the smear campaign. They repeated and magnified the slurs. But in the end, it was to no effect. Kavanaugh was confirmed anyway. Why? Because not a single allegation against him was proven to be true.
Not one. Their only lasting effect was to traumatize Kavanaugh’s wife and children. To this day, the left has never apologized for their dishonesty or their profound cruelty. They did not accept defeat. They never do. Why? Because when politics is your religion, acknowledging reality looks like sin, and so it continues.

A few days ago, New York Times reporters Robin Pogrebin and Kate Kelly were the toast of the left. Their new book appeared to finish the job that the national media started a year ago and take out Kavanaugh for good. The authors accused Kavanaugh of committing sexual assault as a student at Yale more than 30 years ago. Details were sparse, but it was enough to launch a tsunami of rage from the left. Chatters on cable TV denounced Kavanaugh as a gang rapist. The leading Democrats running for president demanded that Kavanaugh be impeached and removed from office.
Almost immediately, the story fell apart. The newspaper was forced to make a devastating correction to the piece. In fact, the woman that Kavanaugh supposedly attacked didn’t remember anything about the event. And just like so many previous stories about Kavanaugh, the whole thing turned out to be a crock.

The Times reporters were grilled by other news outlets. The explanation? Don’t blame us; blame our editors. But a missing line is not the only problem with the story.
Where did the story come from? It came secondhand from a single classmate of Kavanaugh’s, a man who worked as a left-wing activist and later for the Clintons. Of course, 20 years ago, no credible news organization would have run a story like that on the basis of its sourcing. The Times didn’t hesitate, and it was picked up everywhere. When a character-destroying smear comes from political activists rather than from, say, ordinary citizens, you ought to be able to know that from reading the piece. The Times disagrees, though. They don’t think you have a right to that context.

I hope Kav sues.
He could certainly represent himself. No legal fees.

Kav was simply revealed. He has a history of drinking too much and abusing women. He blubbered like a little girl whose Barbie Doll was swiped. He showed nothing that demonstrated he was in control as you expect a judge to be. He was a terrible choice made by the Federalist Society.

Tucker Carlson?"
Brett imploded the day he accepted Trump's nomination, then again, during his beer barfing days, he is a preppy framed by the Heritage Foundation and picked to be Trump's lackey on the Supreme Court, even Roberts expressed concern on his ability to be a Justice

Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
pain in abortion.
Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
which has begun. To abort life is to end it.
