2. The #Memogate scandal involved allegedly stolen files from @SenJudiciary Democratic staff. I follow @jadler1969 in calling them "allegedly stolen" (http://bit.ly/2oOzNra ) because Republican ex-staffer Manuel Miranda was never criminally charged.
I recognize your superior Capitol Hill knowledge, Jeff - but I still don't think the high standards for perjury have been met (see, e.g., @Popehat - https://twitter.com/Popehat/status/1038108259792519173 …). It's more fair to vote against K for jurisprudential rather than personal grounds.

Not all of the possible evidence is yet known until Archivist completes review. To the extent to which the standard re Kavanaugh honesty is pseudo-legal, the standard is either indictment or search warrant/hold up process until archives released, not conviction. (1/2)

But I disagree that Kavanaugh's character is irrelevant given his partisan history re Starr, Memogate, etc... is irrelevant when the president who appointed him seems likely to have cheated in attaining that office & numerous cases about that are going to head to SCOTUS. (2/2)
