Kavanaugh cannot sit on the Supreme Court 29SEP18


THE opposition to brett kavanaugh being approved for a seat on the U.S. Supreme Court is growing every day. America is finding out what a pig and liar kavanaugh is, if he wasn't would NOT MY pres drumpf / trump have nominated him? Of course not! The piece of opposition to kavanaugh from the ACLU.....
ACLU

Imagine an America in which a man who has sexually assaulted women sits on the highest court, wielding the power to judge the whole nation.
Fewer than 24 hours after Dr. Christine Blasey Ford's testimony accusing Judge Kavanaugh of sexual assault, the Senate Judiciary Committee decided to plow through the confirmation process and vote to confirm him as our next Supreme Court Justice. At the eleventh hour, senators finally agreed to move forward with an FBI investigation before the full Senate vote.
But Thursday's hearing, along with the inadequate investigation of the allegations of sexual misconduct have made this much clear: Kavanaugh cannot sit on the highest court of the land.
We have high standards for a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court. That standard is not met when there are credible allegations of sexual assault against a nominee. The burden of proof is on the nominee – and Judge Kavanaugh has thus far failed to prove himself fit to serve.
Our elected leaders are willing to more fully investigate the nominee for this lifetime appointment. This is the direct result of courageous people who've demanded justice. We the people will keep fighting back with everything we have. We're mobilizing the full force of the ACLU – with millions of supporters like you – to stop the confirmation of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.
The ACLU has argued in front of the Supreme Court more than any other private organization in our nearly 100-year history – so we don't take this lightly. After hearing from both him and Dr. Blasey Ford, it became strikingly clear that this is not someone who can sit on the highest court for life and make decisions about our civil rights and liberties for generations to come. And he is certainly not someone who should be allowed to rule on the rights women have over their own bodies.
Members of the Senate Judiciary Committee have shown us they don't take sexual assault allegations seriously, but we do. We must remind senators that they work for us – and that we, the people, will not accept Kavanaugh as a Supreme Court Justice.
Dr. Blasey Ford put everything on the line to perform her civic duty. Let that be an inspiration, because it's going to take every single one of us to stop Kavanaugh from sitting on the highest court of the land. Before the vote goes to the full Senate – expected in just a week – we're going to give this everything we've got. Stay tuned for more ways to fight back.
Thanks for raising your voice,
