Anyone who wants an overview of the hearings:

Republicans: *ask about previous decisions and Kav’s views on the judicial system*

Dems: *why are you a racist, sexist, bigot, homophobe and how dare you sit there trying to be nominated to the highest court in the land?*

What am i missing in that email? Skimmed through them, looked like nothing to me.


I think because it came up under racial profiling they think this would be a gotcha moment and didnt really read through the entire thread.

The emails are another big nothing burger, but booker accomplished what he wanted to and got publicity, Twitter likes and “street cred” for bucking the system and making it appear like repubs were hiding something.

This is the page it seems Booker is playing “gotcha” on (an email not by Kav)

I’ve skimmed the link and can’t find anything that could be bad for Kavanaugh.

Then Booker is more of an idiot than I thought. He just threw away his senate seat for nothing.

Looks to me like they were working on a policy for safe air travel.

Do you really think he is going to be thrown out of the Senate over this?

BK didn’t even write that page. Helgard Walker wrote it (initials HCW at the bottom)

If so, he gets to play martyr and gear up for a 2020 run.

It’s actually a pretty good move, considering it will fire up his base.

Not a chance. The GOP would be foolish to try and remove Booker. Him showboating for Twitter and breaking rules to release that irrelevant email is the perfect reason to keep him in the Senate. That level of stupidity and lack of self-awareness is the gift that keeps on giving

I agree. Rebubs shouldn’t give him what he wants. He would love to get thrown out.
