          “We have to confront an uncomfortable but important question about whether President Trump may have selected you, Judge Kavanaugh, with an eye toward protecting himself,” Sen.

          Confirming this person without their full documentation is like asking a jury to decide a life sentence for someone without hearing the entire case along with all pertinent evidence. It's laughable at best!

          The hearing is a fucking joke and the fact that it’s moving forward with 10% of his documents available, it’s bullshit. It’s unamerican and it’s ridiculous.
