Liberal groups urge Dems to seek perjury probe of Kavanaugh
« on: September 08, 2018, 10:35:15 pm »


Three prominent liberal groups pushing to defeat Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court nomination on Friday urged Democrats to seek a formal perjury investigation of him based on his testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee this week.

Demand Justice, MoveOn, and NARAL Pro-Choice America outlined their case in a letter sent as Kavanaugh’s marathon four-day hearing came to a close, with the Republican Senate still expected to confirm him by month’s end.

The trio of advocacy groups claim that five topics Kavanaugh addressed with Judiciary panel senators this week reveal inconsistencies with statements he made during confirmation hearings for his current appellate court position that “appear to rise to the level of perjury,” they wrote. [...]

Of course Kavanaugh is one of the best SCOTUS candidates I've ever seen, but even so - now that they're pulling this - ram it down their damn throats.

Alas, the "classy" (that is, "lazy lump") Republicans won't do squat.  I was surprised the paid protesters were arrested.  Frankly, I wish Booker and the rest of the Dems would have been tossed out of the hearings on their ears.  And Booker should be in jail, but it won't happen.
