    Ooopsie! In 1997, Kavanaugh warned that president who attacked independent investigations would undermine the rule of law https://newrepublic.com/minutes/149821/trump-wont-like-brett-kavanaughs-position-independent-investigations-white-house … (h/t @rickperlstein)

        Only applies to Democrats. Kavanaugh is not just an ideologue; he is a tribalist who insists other tribes follow rules he refuses to enforce against his own tribe. This is what the GOP has become: a tribe that care only for its own power & survival & will brake rules for both.

        Jeet...I'm going to shock you...he's going to help the president anyway, and people won't care that it's hypocritical. Sorry to break it to you this way.

        Benjamin Wittes once bragged to me in print that he was proud to be on the take from Northrop Grumman.

        Oh silly Jeet! That was when a dem was prez. His eyes were opened when he worked for the totally clean and above-board Bush admin, and saw how hard presidenting was!

        Actually, he's probably seen it, and likes it. It would reaffirm his actual reasons for nom'ing Kavanaugh: 1) Reward Kennedy for his long-term legal subversion, 2) Trash the GWB Administration's Legacy by 3) Stigmatizing anyone who believes in "Unitary Executive" theory.
