"I do follow election law blogs," Kavanaugh says. Cc:

Tillis is up. (My goodness. I thought we were done.)

Tillis: "Are you Judge Kozinski?" So, you can see where this is at.
Show this thread -
Tillis is ignoring all of the other work that Kavanaugh and Kozinski did together since, including working to vet Kennedy's clerks and the fact that Kozinski introduced Kavanaugh at his confirmation hearing. He then said that Democrats should be asking Paul Watford questions.

Tillis is now asking about opinions when Kavanaugh ruled in ways he didn’t like: for Hamdan, for Emily’s List, against the RNC, against Sec. Rice ...
Show this thread -
Tillis says that some people are concerned about Kavanaugh’s views on LGBT issues but says that Kavanaugh while in the White House counsel’s office ... once attended a meeting to talk to Log Cabin Republicans. So, OK?

Update on that Harris line of questioning about whether Kavanaugh talked w/ a Kasowitz firm lawyer about Mueller's investigation. —> A Democratic aide tells me that they "have reason to believe" that a conversation happened and they "are continuing to pursue it."

So, it sure sounds like the reason why that line of questioning didn't go any further tonight is that they couldn't take it any further, or at least weren't ready to do so.

I wrote up what we know about that Harris-Kavanaugh exchange, and then started a new thread to talk about about what I think was so weird about it beyond what we know. Check it out here —>https://twitter.com/chrisgeidner/status/1037565626737405953 …

She wanted him to perjure himself.

That's how it felt to me too. I hope she comes back to it in the second round.

She clearly knows he had a conversation. Wonder what it was.

Something that makes him nervous and a little nauseous, I’d guess.
