    After hearing from Judge Kavanaugh at his lengthy and in-depth confirmation hearing, I’m convinced that he has the right qualifications to serve on the #SCOTUS now more than ever. More in my column:https://www.thune.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/op-eds?ID=FAEEC010-E303-40F3-879C-1E67EC776171 …

        He LIED under oath - repeatedly. There are documents to prove it, is isnt up for debate. It used to that sort of thing disqualified someone from holding one of the most powerful positions in government. But now more than ever you can justify ignoring the truth.

        Here, Thune's staff uses the phrase "lengthy and in-depth" to imply that the hearing and the documents made public were sufficient. They were not. Kavanaugh has NOT been sufficiently vetted and from the clues we have, it's unlikely he's qualified at all.

        If a SCOTUS nominee can’t answer or refuses to answer basic questions, how can you be convinced? It takes agenda and partisan politics and big money donations to convince you of things. This is simply shameful and embarrassing.

        You are a fool. The “president” has no right to nominate anyone while this administration is under investigation. This nominee is clearly against public interests. You are obviously trying to cover something up . #GOPCorruption #GOPCoverUp #CancelKavanaugh #Treason #LockThemUp

        Not sure why Senator Leahy's exchange with Kavanaugh isn't bigger news. Issue isn't only that Kavanuagh appears to have to lied to Congress, repeatedly, but may have aided criminal activity directed against US Senators. https://twitter.com/SimonWDC/status/1037658733973782528 …

        How could you possibly know if he’s qualified with less than 10% of his record revealed? Stop pushing GOP agenda and start doing what’s best for America, by following the process that’s in place. #GOPShadyAF #NoKavanaugh

        Trump asking for “libel” laws & to sue if people say bad things about you ie him. Unreal. Watch Obama’s speech, learn the difference, see the difference it’s blindingly clear~remove this mentally ill man from office. He is not right, the way he speaks is reminiscent of dictators

        Clearly Senator Thune has chosen to be a quisling Republican. He is a greedy American Senator who REFUSES to PROTECT & DEFEND the Country he was elected to serve.
