I see the Liberal Facists at Pro Publica are soliciting ( via Twitter) photos or pictures of Brett Kavanaugh and any seatmates at any 2017 Washington Nationals game.
Their stated reasoning:

Figuring out who Kavanaugh brought to games could be relevant to his confirmation. It would help:

Understand more about his relationships and any potential questions they might raise for the Supreme Court justice.
Get a better sense of what went into this unusual amount of debt for a judge in his position.
Or maybe just affirm that the guy really does love baseball for the judicial inspiration.


Damn, dude. You act as if this is news?

Figuring out how he supposedly spent enough money on ballgames to go $200K into debt and then managed to pay it back in about a year should raise a few flags if the GOP gave a shit about governing instead of ruling.

Sounds like you don't know exactly what the current immigration laws are.

And I am sure you are one of the fairly high % that didnt know kids separated at the border from parents were fostered under Obama's 8 year run

So given another shot, kidcarter8 still can't articulate how immigratin policy has led to Trump needing to "save the nation."  You can only garble out unrelated garbage...

Trump is being cautious - for the good of the nation.  Immigration isnt coming to a halt.

So you think the characterization of Trump and Miller's position articulated by Miller's uncle in this piece is unfair?  They are not, for example, seeking an end to chain migration?

Were going to need the records on his time covering up torture and his superiors’ sex crimes as well.

Full hearings lead Kavanaugh to his retirement not to a confirmation.

Check your facts much?

Information on Kavanaugh’s “debt” came from the White House.  By IRS reporting standards the credit card debt fell between $ 60k and $200k.
He bought season tickets for Himself and friends and was reimbursed by those friends in a matter of months.
The top season ticket for a Nationals’ game was $6K for the 2017 season according to the Washington Post.

Kavanaugh’s Baseball shenanigans matter as much as dotard’s porn sex payoffs. They are beside the point and trivial compared to these creepy goons’ primary transgressions.

For the dotard and his party and the political right wing, the heart of the matter is here,

Probably not much of interest or potentially embarassing in Lindsey Graham's closet.

And I am sure you are one of the fairly high % that didnt know kids separated at the border from parents were fostered under Obama's 8 year run


You keep bringing that up as if it has a damned thing to do with what Trump did.

It doesn't.

I already presented the facts to you, but you are really fact-resistant, Kiid.

1) Trump ordered the asylum-seekers to be treated as criminals rather than through civil hearings as had been done, in order to separate the children

2) He tried to use the separations as both deterrence and as blackmail to get the Dems to vote for the funding for his wall (that he has admitted the Mexicans will not be paying for).

3) His people intentionally scattered the kids without keeping records of where each kid was sent to make reuniting them harder.

4) The Border Patrol, on orders, were turning away legal asylum seekers, preventing them from applying - many of the children were taken illegally.

Since then the administration has tried to avoid its responsibility by hiding the phone numbers they did have; by claiming it was up to the ACLU to find already deported families; and by trying to deport people, even during a hearing discussing their fate, to the point that it disgusted the judge.

You just keep lying to yourself with your false equivalencies.

And what Obama did was disgusting, itself! So, all the comparison does is make you that much worse.
