Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley slammed Democrats who complained about not having access to Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s records on Tuesday, revealing that his office was open 24/7 for Democrats to have access to Kavanaugh’s records and not a single Democrat showed up.
“But not all of these presidential records remain confidential. In fact, nearly two-thirds already became public,” Grassley said during the Supreme Court confirmation hearing. “These records are posted on the committee’s public website and available to the American people.”- READ MOE
[divider][/divider]Judge Brett Kavanaugh on Tuesday vowed to be a “a neutral and impartial arbiter” if confirmed to the Supreme Court, after a chaotic first day of hearings on Capitol Hill amid political theatrics and protests from Democrats.
“If confirmed to the Supreme Court, I will keep an open mind in every case,” Kavanaugh said. “I will do equal right to the poor and to the rich. I will always strive to preserve the Constitution of the United States and the American rule of law.”
Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings started Tuesday and are set to continue through the week.
Before he spoke, Kavanaugh was introduced by former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Ohio Republican Sen. Rob Portman and attorney Lisa Blatt – a liberal Democrat who said she voted for Hillary Clinton for president but supports Kavanaugh’s nomination.
Democrats, in their opening remarks Tuesday, sounded the alarm about Kavanaugh’s past work in Republican politics, including as a lawyer in George W. Bush’s White House. – READ MORE

Feinstein added, “It’s pretty clear that your views go way beyond simply being ‘pro-gun.’” Huff Post then noted that Feinstein suggested a confirmation of Kavanaugh will mark an end to “assault weapons” bans, as she claimed he would hold AR-15 and similar rifles as constitutionally protected.

She also intimated there would be more school shootings if Kavanaugh were confirmed, chiefly because of the continued legality of “assault weapons.” Feinstein claimed there have been 273 school shootings since the heinous December 14, 2012, shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary, and that such shootings would actually grow with Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court of the United States. – READ MORE
