Isn't there a disclosure he's supposed to do?

I believe I read elsewhere that family gifts are exempted.
-
you're still supposed to pay taxes on the gift, if its over $20k or so (depending on year). And of course, Kavanaugh paid those taxes, right?
-
Doesn’t the gifter pay the taxes, not the giftee?

Did he lie about the source of the down payment funds? Did he provide a paper trail? Mortgage fraud is a bitch. Just ask Paul Manafort.

Daddy being who?
-
His father is wealthy. It could have been a gift from family, but he hasn’t acknowledged that and claimed the down payment came from other sources.
-
Ah, so daddy daddy

Why was he carrying so much credit card debt back then? $25k is quite a bit.
-
And he can’t blame it on repairs to the big, expensive house.
-
Why not, it would make sense if his income wasn’t enough to buy appliance/pay contractors/etc., and then he could wipe it out so quickly without violation of judicial disclosure rules with another bailout from the bank of daddy.
-
I'm talking about the debt at the time of the home purchase. You're probably right - he's just reckless with money because he knows he can get bailed out. But, damn, that's a lot to pay in finance charges.
-
Living a lie. Prep kid and Yalie keeping up appearances for his rich pals. Insecurity such as this is not encouraging for a justice. Means he can be manipulated.
-
Could be a lie, could just be the old school aristocratic path. Dad gets his hands dirty making money as a sordid lobbyist to pay for the sons noble life of politics and public service. That’s a tale as old as at least Rome.

I'm more concerned about how his baseball ticket debt disapeared so quickly. Parents help their kids all the time with debt, but it seems like he would just say that if it is the truth.https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2018/09/brett-kavanaugh-baseball-debt-democrats-hearing-missing.html …

What is it with these grown men not being able to provide for themselves? Must daddy always fund your lifestyle? I mean it's Trump, Miller, now Kavanaugh.

Oh FFS! Who cares! My daddy bought me my first car and gave me money towards my first house too. So what!

Yeah, who’s your daddy?
