NEWS: Kavanaugh bluntly said he wanted to overturn SCOTUS ruling upholding constitutionality of independent counsel. There’s difference bw independent counsel and special counsel (like Mueller) - but it’s bound to spark questions about how he views Muellerhttps://www.cnn.com/2018/07/18/politics/brett-kavanaugh-independent-counsel-comments/index.html …

What's the rush? We went without a justice for a whole year when Merrick Garland was nominated, and the GOP seemed totally fine with that.

I'm pretty sure "a year" of vetting for a 40 year term in public office is *literally* the least we can do.

If the documents were provided electronically, computers could scan and process them quickly, leaving time to deal with older documents that would need to be digitized first. Sure sounds like “head in the sand” to me. If waiting a year was ok re:Garland it should be fine now.

How are all of them not relevant to determine his fitness for a lifetime appointment to the highest court of the land?

"Too much reviewing" might disclose something unfavorable. Isn't that the whole point of vetting? Trump shouldn't be appointing anyone at this point until the investigation is over.

Excellent points, and wouldn't EVERYTHING be relevant for such an important position? More

This is so fucking ridiculous ...why should anyone actually take their time to review all documents relative to naming a justice (who could potentially wreak havoc on established judicial law) to a lifetime appointment? Seems totally unnecessary

Grassley is ignoring constituents about Trump’s defense of Putin over our Country. He refuses to protect America or speak against Trump while Trump’s trade war devastates Iowa farmers.

If confirmed, he would only be around for the next 30+ years on the highest court in the land. So, by all means, skim the greatest hits.

Can't they just get an intern to make a Cliffs Notes version of this so we can get a vote on this lifetime appointment before happy hour today??

Exactly. Habeus yadda yadda corpus.
