The liberal media were all too keen to play up the protests on the steps of the Supreme Court and granted the group an incredible amount of coverage while pressing the narrative that this “massive” gathering of protesters represented the mainstream views of Americans across the country.
Tim Young, the host of the political comedy show “No Things Considered,” snapped a selfie at the Supreme Court that caught the actual size of the crowd of protesters in the background behind him.
“A selfie to show just how few people are protesting at #SCOTUS right now … I’m sure the media angles make it look like thousands … it might be 300,” Young tweeted.

The tweet-trackers at Twitchy noted some of the more humorous responses to Young’s rather revealing tweet showing the true size of the crowd of protesters. – READ MORE
[divider][/divider]Who Trump picked mattered so little to the Left that they literally started without him. Long before Trump strode into the White House East Room on Monday night to name Appeals Court Judge Brett Kavanaugh as his nominee, the Women’s March put out this release: “In response to Donald Trump’s nomination of XX to the Supreme Court of the United States, the Women’s March released the following statement … ” That’s right: They just put a couple of Xs in there as placeholders.
At noon on Monday — nine hours before Trump’s announcement — Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) put out a statement announcing he would oppose the nomination. No, Casey would not carefully weigh the selection, as voters had elected him to do. He wouldn’t hear Kavanaugh out, ask probing questions, then make a considered judgment. Quoting Lincoln, Casey said he “was not elected to genuflect to the hard Right, who are funded by corporate America.” Ah, corporate America, that evil entity that employs 90% of Americans. What scum.
The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, charged with helping the party win back the Senate, joined the fray. “Kavanaugh is a far-right conservative who is known to be hostile to women’s rights and prioritizes corporations over people,” the group said in an email.
And the DSCC wanted one thing: Money. “Chip in $1 to help elect Senate Democrats,” said the email.
Tom Perez, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, wanted a bit more.
“Chip in $3 to help Democrats regain a majority in the Senate this November. The only way it will be possible is if we work together — starting right now,” he wrote. “You better believe that with Brett Kavanaugh on the bench, Roe v. Wade, affordable health care, labor unions, and civil rights will all be on the chopping block,” he said. – READ MORE
