They serve to field any questions senators may have before casting their vote to approve or deny his nomination. This is signifant because Democrats have been using the courts to legislative, this both blocks them and gives Republicans a chance to reverse previous decisions
History of confirmation hearing >The controversy surrounding Brandeis's nomination was so great that the Senate Judiciary Committee, for the first time in its history, held a public hearing on the nomination, allowing witnesses to appear before the committee and offer testimony both in support of and in opposition to Brandeis's confirmation. While previous nominees to the Supreme Court had been confirmed or rejected by a simple up-or-down vote on the Senate floor—often on the same day on which the President had sent the nomination to the Senate—a then-unprecedented four months lapsed between Wilson's nomination of Brandeis and the Senate's final confirmation vote en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Brandeis#Nominated_to_the_Supreme_Court
>Kavanaugh is an orignalist >The original intent theory, which holds that interpretation of a written constitution is (or should be) consistent with what was meant by those who drafted and ratified it. >The original meaning theory, which is closely related to textualism, is the view that interpretation of a written constitution or law should be based on what reasonable persons living at the time of its adoption would have understood the ordinary meaning of the text to be. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Originalism

Is Harris always this much of a cunt or is it just now? Whatever he answers or doesn't she simply dismisses it as "you haven't answered"
Brody Wright
what a bitch
Which one of them is worse between her and Booker?
Austin Hall
I hope they run this nasty cunt in 2020. Republican turnout would be massive.
It gets worse whenever she senses a camera pointed at her. Some sort of whore-sense from her days as an up-n-comin' dicksucker..
Adrian James
Love the non answers from Kavanaugh. Spoken like a true independent.
Connor Robinson
No reeeeeeing protesters tonight. The money ran out?
Jacob Stewart
>16 minutes for gook bitch I know when I'm fapping.
Jacob Perez
He gotta piss! IMBEACH!!
Nicholas Gonzalez
They're almost going to have to, what other options are there? Warren? Bernie? Doesn't work very well for their rabid anti white new narrative. They could run Booker, or that Muslim Dnc guy, is that nyc woman old enough to run?
Cameron Parker
There were none after the lunch break. Makes me think.
Can't imagine going in front of these cunts for days at a time. This must be the hardest part of Kavanaugh's career, not being snarky with these insufferable cunts.

Grayson Cook
>is that nyc woman old enough to run? in like 10 years, the Dem party will be too fractured by then for them to win anything
Austin Hernandez
Booker seems like he's just a retarded nigger, but Harris sounds like a malicious liar and all around cunt.

>Americans should consider countering it not a bad idea, anons sending a letter or quick email to even just all the Republican reps to avoid them switching sides could be good
Mason Baker
MUH PRECEDENT!
Michael Perez
how long do they have for this hearing? Can they postpone the confirmation indefinitely?
Samuel Wood
>appropriately Guys was McCarthy wrong?
Cooper Campbell
Is there another round of questioning tomorrow, or is this the last? And, when should we expect the vote to be held?
>Is there another round of questioning tomorrow, or is this the last? And, when should we expect the vote to be held? They said 80 minutes more of public questions, PLUS a five minute break -- then a closed session at another location.
Benjamin Rogers
And she's being prosecuted for fraud... living on government assistance while she had money coming in from a book she wrote. Stupid cunt.
It's absolutely hilarious that the Democrats ultimate final strategy that they were building up to the entire time was for a rude bitch to ask a bunch of questions he already said he wont answer. They couldn't even get anything to trend on twitter.
Christian Lewis
Brought in the little girl sports team to fill the seats
Wyatt Howard
She is 53 years old and married for the first time in 2014, so she first married at 49.
Thomas Lee
oh thats right i forgot about that. someone said, well maybe she is black after all. welfare fraud
lol, he was though. He only got one wrong with all of his accusations
Zachary Lopez

Threadly reminder that stare decided matters up until the minute it doesn't. Dred Scott, Plessy vs. Ferguson, Brown v Board, Roe v Wade are all decisions that are either overturns of previous Supreme Court cases or go against the plain written meaning of the Constitution. Antonio Scalia even wrote papers outlining the (high) standards by which stare decisis should be upheld or not. In fact it is one of the issues I heavily disagree with him on because he allows for a non-literal interpretation of the Bill of Rights.

Shes napping!!

Remember when protesters were cool? Like the protest against the nudity ban in San Fran back in 2013 where the protesters went around the city nude? If some of these protesters would spice it up a bit, I might be more interested in what they have to say. Of course, this offer is not guaranteed to all of them. Specifically the males. They can just fuck off. Also, most of the females too.
