3. One thing that has changed since Kavanaugh's confirmation is that the evidence against Kavanaugh has gotten STRONGER.
Specifically, there are now more corroborating evidence to support the claims of Deborah Ramirez, who wasn't even allowed to testifyhttps://t.co/amtwSyaLCw— Judd Legum (@JuddLegum) November 14, 2019

Kavanaugh dodged ethics scrutiny by getting off the DC Circuit and on the Supreme Court, the only nine judges on the federal bench WITHOUT a code of ethics. Which is why he can headline a fundraiser for the group that deposited him on the Court.

"Kavanaugh is the perfect symbol for @FedSoc : A white man of privilege who gets dangerously angry when anybody tries to hold him to account. He is the embodiment of everything that is wrong. Of course they honor him."-- me refusing to normalize that man.https://t.co/tE89Sesrwt

Actually, it is. You see, the federal bribery statute, 18 USC 201, defines bribery to include attempted bribery. It's enough to "seek" a bribe - you don't actually have to pull your illegal scheme off. https://t.co/Q6KynEOQIF
