He'll try anything to create a distraction. C_U_L8R Jul 2020 #16
I'll bet he did. NurseJackie Jul 2020 #15
Of course he did. He put Cavenaugh in there for more than one reason. BComplex Jul 2020 #17
You do realize that Kavanaugh ruled against him don't you? dware Jul 2020 #31
That is a good ruling, but it doesn't change anything about what Kavenaugh has done. BComplex Jul 2020 #32
You have absolutely no proof that it was Kavanaugh that tipped him off, dware Jul 2020 #34
if he did edhopper Jul 2020 #18
Yeah, you might be right. honest.abe Jul 2020 #25

They essentially ruled against him in both cases, even though he's been given a "stay" for a while. George II Jul 2020 #33

Pro misconduct means the AG of NY suing him unjustly and Presidential Harassment means the failed attempt to Congress to see his tax returns...

Possible????


I hope not!!!


SCUM!

Doesn't feel like vindication and victory tweets like we've seen in the past. Sounds more like Trump in meltdown mode.

exactly what he is doing and thinking every single moment of the day. He is self absorbed enough to believe that.

If he'd typed those tweets you know there would have been 5 or 6 on each one.

Cavenaugh is a serial rapist, just like trump. He has no regard for the rule of law, or the traditions of this country.

Hopefully he can be impeached as soon as Biden gets in.

Along with Gorsuch, it was Alito and Thomas that rule for him.

He lied in his confirmation hearing, and I'm pretty sure the alphabet agencies are going to be able to prove that he has been telling trump what rulings are coming up on the supreme court ahead of the release of those rulings.

it could have been one of the interns that tipped him off.

I'm not excusing Kavanaugh for his lying to the Congress during his confirmation hearings, but until there is proof that it was him that tipped the Mango Menace off, then I won't place blame
on him.

He could be referring to the lower court decisions which are about to be overturned by SCOTUS.

UPDATE: Nope!

Did she bring that stuff up? He tweeted about her rant from this morning, previous to the prosecutorial one. I would re-post his tweet here but, bleh.

He has a habit of tweeting his reactions to his PDB from Steve Ducey.

but I think it must you be him trying to set the narrative in case the decision goes against him which I doubt.

I think Roberts may have already used up his "out of line" cards. I don't expect the SCOTUS to rule against trump this time. HOPE I'm wrong of course.

literally minutes away after I posted that.

Nothing changes until he releases them. Let's see whether he can or can't drag this out a long time.
