      David Lat Retweeted Above the Law

      I'm no longer managing editor at @ATLblog (just a contributor), so I'm going to use tweets to respond to this "perjury" argument of @ElieNYC (also raised by @WashingtonPost reporting & @nycsouthpaw, among others.) #SCOTUS #KavanaughHearingshttps://twitter.com/atlblog/status/1037762280874749952 …

      David Lat added,

      Brett #Kavanugh perjured himself before Congress in 2006. If that's not enough to stop his confirmation, it should be enough to start his Impeachment from the D.C. Circuit, starting tomorrow if Dems can get it together. (by @ElieNYC) https://abovethelaw.com/2018/09/brett-kavanaugh-perjured-himself-impeachment/ …

      Replying to @DavidLat @atlblog and

      Why would you dunk on an employee that your founding company hired? He won a contest to work for you? Terrible.

      This is not a personal attack. Rather, it is an intelligent critique.

      I wasn't make an ad hominem attack, @ABookishMind; I was respectfully disagreeing with @ElieNYC (and we have been disagreeing in the pages of @ATLblog for years, often in actual formal debates).

      I understand. It looks like you're both on good terms. I'm sorry for what I said.

      No need to apologize! I just wanted to be clear that I don't see such disagreements as personal (even if, in this day and age, many people do).
