    Before going on about child pornography, here's Hawley doing the elbow with Matt Gaetz

    685b0ced-13ac-4cab-a830-77b8bced20fd-image.png

    Not that there's anything ironic about that, of course.

    @Doctor-Phibes Gaetz might well be guilty of the crimes which are insinuated.

    Until he's proven guilty, he's not (that's how our system works, much to your apparent dismay).

    But the corollary to your picture...if he is found guilty, would Judge Jackson reduce his sentence below prosecutorial requests?

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      @jon-nyc right.

      McCarthy's subsequent objections. are more substantive.

      Nevertheless, your statement is "When you've lost McCarthy." It was Hawley who lost McCarthy, not Jackson.

        Is Gaetz’s issue possessing porn? I thought it was fucking underage girls 🤷‍♂️

          Either that or transporting presumably not underage girls across state lines. Haven't looked lately.

                Funny one from Ken White:

                It’s almost as if Jackson, as a district court judge, has experience dealing with irritating, performatively rude, mediocre white guys.

                    The WaPo prints this, presumably with a straight face:

                    Republicans boast they have not pulled a Kavanaugh. In fact, they’ve treated Jackson worse.

                        Was there ever a doubt she would be confirmed?

                            I cant find the table (though I am sure it is out there somewhere), but it was a table showing the final votes for each Supreme court justice when the US senators voted on them.

                            if I remember, judges nominated by Democrat presidents (at least in modern history) usually got a higher number of confirmation votes.

                            Depending on which side you are on, both statements are true:

                            1. Republicans are more willing to put bias to the side and vote strictly on qualifications
                              or
                            2. Democrats are more likely to nominate judges who are more in the center and hold no political view.
