        Nah. It's a hill he spends a lot of time on. His defense of torture lawyer Jonathan Fredman was even more ridiculous. Ben actually loses his ability to work with evidence when his buddies are involved.

        But using your own email server is the crime of the century. Got it.

        I have to say I appreciate when you say “reup”. So many stories from other journalists/outlets posted that are purporting to be brand new when they are a week or older.

        A key rationale for the release of all documents & for Kavanaugh to avoid "I don't recalls" is the risk w/out it of his being blackmailed. By Russians, maybe (esp if there are ties there), but also by domestic actors. Transparency is essential for natsec-he should welcome it.

        At the very least, we have learned something about Kavanaugh's conscience--information that is important in evaluating a judge, and that can be surprisingly difficult to uncover.

        Except if it’s a Dem. then he would find a disingenuous way to convict.

        Contrast Kevanaugh's behavior with stolen political data with the Gore/Lieberman campaign's actions when they were given stolen political data on the Bush campaign in the 2000 election
