Here's a recent tweet from the normally-silent-on-such-matters Avenatti

[AndJusticeForSome]

With which I heartily agree:

Michael Avenatti
@MichaelAvenatti

Here are some additional tools that can be utilized now by the Dems in order to prevent the confirmation of Judge Kavanaugh and significant damage to the rights of those that need us most. pic.twitter.com/uabj51HyXB

1. Like him or not, he is a doer and a logical thinker. n/t

[dchill]

13. Don't know why I wouldn't like him.

[Perseus]

16. Yeap, I was thinking the same

I think Avenatti is great.

[MontanaMama]

2. I hope that Senator Harris has a plan

in place to reveal the alleged communication between KKKavenaugh and someone at the pResident's law firm regarding the Mueller investigation. We have a right to know.

[TeamPooka]

23. I think the plan is let him lie about it and impeach him after the GOP rams his confirmation through

[MontanaMama]

24. I've heard scuttle about that possibility

but it seems that would be much more difficult than catching him in the lie now and making that public. Maybe it'll work, I don't know...

[TeamPooka]

25. Making a Republican's lies public now would do what? Make the GOP suddenly get a conscience?

Please.
This guy could come out as a liar and Nazi party boy with a Klan membership and the GOP would confirm him because they are all Quislings.
Impeaching when we have some control of any part of the Federal government is our only hope.
Keeping your powder dry here as they used to say is a good tactic.

[MontanaMama]

27. Not necessarlily disagreeing with you

just saying that I'm hopeful she's working behind the scenes to get two/three senators to do the right thing to derail this now. As Rachel said last night, it's a tall order but it is not impossible. More than one way to skin a proverbial cat IMO. If/when we get Dems back into power, we will have plenty of clean up to do...impeaching is hard and doesn't happen often.

[WhiteTara]

26. She's a very savvy prosecutor. I'll bet

she has several plans and is working with the entire committee.

[thesquanderer]

3. How will those things prevent confirmation? The Repubs have the votes. (nt)

[bucolic_frolic]

5. Communications with OSC might - might - give a Senator or two pause

Flake or Corker for example, a long shot, but still you play every angle you can

[calimary]

20. YES. You play every angle you can.

These Dems are NOT rolling over. I’m actually rather shocked. These are the Democrats I’ve been praying for - those who refuse just to lie down and concede defeat. No patsies here!

Those Dems in the hearing gave all of us Democratic voters SOMETHING to vote FOR!!!

Mighty nice, for a change, ‘eh? Actually mighty freakin’ surprising! And a VERY pleasant surprise at that! I was NOT expecting it, but I’ve become accustomed to Democrats disappointing me, by giving up early and reliably caving to the bad guys.

[AndJusticeForSome]

7. I hope he meant something like

"because it's the right thing to do"

[louis c]

10. Perhaps not. If there is a breach in this red wall

you will see a flood of opposition.

[pnwmom]

12. It will accomplish two things.

One is that this pressure might affect the votes of a few vulnerable Senators. The R's have the majority but that doesn't mean some of them aren't under pressure from their constituents.

Two, even if this fails, the louder and more public we are about how unfair this process is, how bad the R's are being, the more voters might be affected in the November election.

[lagomorph777]

14. These revelations should at least get Manchin and Heidtkamp on board.

No excuses now! Kavanaugh is a crook, and no Democrat has any excuse voting for such a horrible crook.

[thesquanderer]

19. I agree, it's worth doing these things.

I was only questioning the OP premise of "prevent the confirmation". I wonder if there's any chance the Repub majority won't hold together for this.

[Cosmocat]

4. The Leahy issue of hacking during the Bush Admin

and his being part of it, should be a drop mic, end of nomination moment ...

[AndJusticeForSome]

8. Right?

And yet....

[mainstreetonce]

6. If the hearing is over today

When is the confirmation vote?

[Sancho]

9. Avenatti for AG!

[ProudProgressiveNow]

11. KR NT

[tecelote]

15. Why don't we get to vote on judges with life long appointments?

WTF. We leave it up to Congress?

[samnsara]

17. i like him..just not as a prez candidate

he can do so much more for us as an advocate

[AndJusticeForSome]

18. Agreed n/t

[zentrum]

21. Avenatti is great.

[Grasswire2]

22. All of this lays groundwork to impeach Avanaugh later if we can't stop him now.

That's why the Dem resistance right now is critical. Lay it all out. We'll get the blushing bugger one way or another.

[WhiteTara]

28. I call him Kraven-all
