Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

    emptywheel Retweeted Lindsey Graham

    I checked twice, but this tweet actually isn't leftover from two years ago and pertaining to Merrick Garland. Huh.https://twitter.com/LindseyGrahamSC/status/1044232486514020353 …

    What we are witnessing is the total collapse of the traditional confirmation process for a Supreme Court nominee. It is being replaced by a game of delay, deception, and wholesale character assassination.

        @LindseyGrahamSC 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 called. They'd like to know when you and your colleagues are going to vote on President Obama's various court nominees. Or are you guys still stuck under that collapse of the traditional confirmation process? Should I call someone...

        Yawn. Merrick Garland was partisan. If DNC wants to admit what they're doing to kavanaugh is partisan, they're admitting to using the metoo movements goodwill for partisanship. Democrats need to stop pointing to Garland and going "YOU STARTED IT". sickening

        There are lots of ways that the right is awful, the left doesn’t have to pick just one.

        The WH used Axios to drop a story this AM that Rosenstein was “resigning” which set off this whole thing, knowing RR had a principle’s meeting at WH today. Axios dropped it 15 minutes after 4th potential accusation against Kav was reported by @BrianKarem
