      Important to note that prior to Kavanaugh's nomination, per this pivotal NYT story about McConnell, it did appear that the understanding was that Kavanaugh's staff secretary documents would be subject to review.

          On Kavanaugh —> The premise of Grassley's argument is that the pure # of pages of docs is all that matters. By his telling, it doesn't matter where they come from, who reviewed them, or—most importantly—what portion of the total available record that represents. It's wild!pic.twitter.com/d8niRNxxMB

          And, to repeat again and again, this runs right into the argument that McConnell had made against Kavanaugh's nomination: He has a lot more records than other nominees, so it could slow things down. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/07/us/politics/trump-mcconnell-supreme-court.html …pic.twitter.com/Nw08o2vzsG

          Grassley's answer, in part, has been to just cut out a large part of those documents — Kavanaugh's time as staff secretary — from the documents he's even interested in the committee reviewing.

          They're still trying to recover the 22 million emails that were deleted from the private RNC server that the Bush White House used. Why isn't Hillary nominating this judge again? Oh right, she used a private server so can't trust her JUDGEment...

          Trump uses a private server. Trump jr uses a private server. Ivanka uses a private server. Jeff sssions uses a private server. Stfu about private servers and work on reading skills. #lowlife
