Conservatives take issue with Kavanaugh’s decisions on ObamaCare and abortion-related cases.
In a 2011 opinion, he suggested that the Affordable Care Act's individual mandate could be made a “tax,” providing a “roadmap” to a 2012 Supreme Court ruling that Republicans believe saved the 2010 healthcare law.
Kavanaugh's ruling on "Garza v. Hargan" - better known as the "teen-immigration abortion case"
His opinion dissenting from the court's ultimate decision to permit the abortion was not "as constitutionally principled" as another conservative judge who considered the issue.
"He came straight out of the Ivy League to Washington, was never outside the beltway and went to the Bush White House."
>The left is actually leaving their houses and taking political action This is why they will win. Conservatives better start going out, harassing leftist politicians, and maybe even commit some violence against lefties like Antifa otherwise we'll be perceived as weak.

Turtleman has a tough shell he can take it.

That advert is talking about West Germany. Although I guess that they were a Republic, too, so I dunno.
BREAKING: MITCH MCCONNELL URGED PRESIDENT TRUMP TO SELECT EITHER RAY KETHLEDGE OR THOMAS HARDIMAN FOR SCOTUS, CITING THAT THEY WOULD BE EASIER TO CONFIRM
WHILE KAVANAUGH WAS CONSIDERED THE FAVORITE AND IS STILL LIKED BY TRUMP, IT HAS BEEN REVEALED THE KAVANAUGH HAS MILLIONS OF DOCUMENTS LINKED TO HIM, AND RAND PAUL SAID HE WOULS LIKELY VOTE AGAINST HIM BECAUSE OF HIS TIES TO EXPANDING GOVERNMENT SURVEILLANCE PROGRAMS
MCCONNELL ALSO URGED TRUMP CAUTION ON AMY CONEY BARRETT, CAUTIONING THAT SHE IS TOO RIGHT WING AND MIGHT LOSE SUSAN COLLINS AND LISA MURKOWSKI’S VOTES
AS OF SATURDAY AFTERNOON, TRUMP WAS STILL NOT SURE WHO HE WOULD SELECT.
HE IS SAID TO BE INTRIGUED BY THE IDEA OF SELECTING A WOMAN IN THE ERA OF METOO
HE MOSTLY TALKED ABOUT KAVANAUGH, CONEY BARRETT, AND HARDIMAN TO ADVISERS, LARGELY IGNORED KETHLEDGE
Does this mean that we were accepting more than the rest of the world combined, and now we're still taking the most, but not more than 50% of the world wide refugees?

>HE IS SAID TO BE INTRIGUED BY THE IDEA OF SELECTING A WOMAN IN THE ERA OF METOO He is literally bending over for the feminists and gynocentrists. Time for Trump to stop listening to Oyvanka and start electing some men to the court.
Also, he should go with Hardiman

>The milk represents the purity of Aryan genes. The woman is holding a leather bound copy of Mein Kampf. Because it is leather bound it is made to resemble the Bible — her "Bible." She is bathing in milk — literally she is bathing in whiteness that she has collected in jars obsessively. The person who is pouring the milk in her tub is wearing a mask in an act of submission. There are lesbian overtones. The milk container is a cheep plastic container, which contradicts the preciousness of the fluid.
>Only whites can digest milk since only White people have the gene for digesting milk. Hence White milk is a symbol of Whiteness. The clothing is 50's retro style. The woman has an old fashioned haircut. She is wearing an over-sized ring on her middle finger, probably in a symbolic "fuck you."
Brandon James
>Haberman NO. Please kys
Austin Wilson
>(((kroger))) You should have known better and gone to H-E-B where J.J. Watt the chaddest of chads shops
So basically Hardiman. Appoint Barrett when Ruthie gets a visit from the angel of death after she has more time on bench and we have more Senate seats.
Kevin Gomez
Honestly, I trust turtleman at this point. Kethledge seems like the safest option. Kavanaugh seems like a brown baby cuckservative and never trust women.
Luke James
Damn I never thought of doing this. Smart idea nigga
Zachary Bennett
This also scares me greatly
Blake Garcia
>MCCONNELL ALSO URGED TRUMP CAUTION ON AMY CONEY BARRETT, CAUTIONING THAT SHE IS TOO RIGHT WING >TOO RIGHT WING O I AM LAFFIN
Christopher Nguyen
>Tries to nudge How does one move an unstoppable force?
Picking a hardcore anti-abortion judge will drive Dem turnout in the midterms up in a dangerous way, because it'll get those who normally are too lazy to show up. I mostly mean millennial women. Honestly the timing of this SC pick is a small curse, not a blessing.
Jaxson Phillips
HILLARY FLUNKY
Easton Bennett
All the picks sound like warmed over shit to me. There has to be a better candidate to choose from.

Donald Trump is obviously a very old and highly evolved soul. This is why his insights are so keen, his intelligence so extraordinarily high, and his behavior so puzzling to the incognoscenti. Such souls, when they incarnate, often take onto themselves the karma of other people--because they can--and because love is the fundamental state of all souls. President Trump has taken on the karma of an entire nation, and even more. Our concepts of reincarnation, of the samsara, of karma, of enlightenment, and other concepts of Hindu/Buddhist mythology are naive, as our concepts in general tend to be. As St. Paul said, "We see through a glass darkly, but then face to face;" as Plato observed, our understanding of absolute truth is about like understanding an object by observing its shadow; and as our contemporary physicists theorize, the world that we observe seems to be a hologram. Similarly, our concept of the bodhisattva tends to be unsophisticated. Some highly enlightened souls, when they incarnate, take on as much karma as they can, and thus help other souls (even the concept of the soul is only an approximation) find a way to enlightenment. Highly enlightened souls tend to maintain an awareness of the world of pre-incarnation/post-incarnation (spirituality, heaven, the bardo state, etc.), in which our souls actually live, most of us for the most part unaware, during incarnation, and this awareness gives them insights and awareness that contribute to what we would consider extraordinary intelligence.
>In the dissent were the court's three active judges nominated to the bench by Republican presidents. Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh said the majority has "badly erred" and created a new right for undocumented immigrant minors in custody to "immediate abortion on demand."
So? The constitution grants no rights to abortion on demand nor rights to illegals in general.
Lucas Wood
Doesn't matter when Trump has pretty much halted all (((migrants))) from entering the country in the first place.
At least 35 dead, 50 missing as heavy rains continue to lash western Japan
>The death toll from heavy rains across a wide swath of western Japan rose to at least 50 by Saturday evening and about another 50 people remained missing, as downpours triggered mudslides and flooding smashed homes and swept away cars.
>Evacuation orders or advisories were issued for 4.72 million people at one point due to continued downpours. Nearly 50,000 members of the Self-Defense Forces, police and firefighting services were taking part in searches for people trapped, wounded or dead.
>Emergency warnings were lifted by the evening in Fukuoka, Saga, Nagasaki, Hiroshima, Tottori, Okayama, Hyogo and Kyoto prefectures but remained in effect in Gifu prefecture.
>Hiroshima Prefecture was hit the hardest by landslides that claimed 22 lives, while another 18 people died in Ehime Prefecture. Still others lost their lives in Osaka, Shiga, Hyogo, Okayama, Yamaguchi and Fukuoka prefectures.
>Mitsubishi Motors Corp. said it had halted operations at its Okayama Prefecture plant as it was unable to procure parts, while Daihatsu Motor Co., a minivehicle making unit of Toyota Motor Corp., said it had suspended production at two plants in Osaka and Kyoto for the same reason.
