7. Scumdog Kavanaugh leaking dirt on his boss and colleagues

for personal reasons is so typical of the dirty political agent we know him to be. The Starr swiftboaters. Might as well have expected him not to chew his fleas and lick his butt.

Fwiw, I really doubt that bringing it up again 20 years later would have changed the result. Trump surrounds himself with people who can be "trusted" to steal candy from a baby whenever they feel like it. He only requires loyalty to him.

And, of course, the same for McConnell and company in the senate. They had the votes to get their agent on the court and the friendly media to confuse the electorate about who was doing what, including the NYT. The WaPo is far more honorable.

Btw, that NYT article is no "puff piece" about the WaPo. It offers a range of insights but is overwhelmingly about the minority/#BLM struggle at the Post and in much of the rest of the MSM, including the Times. In particular how even wildly talented minorities, especially AA, are still routinely discriminated against, held back from advancement, passed over for submission for awards -- including the Pulitzer, forced to leave what should be dream jobs at the top of their field, but are not, for work in less elevated spheres where they can achieve to their already proven levels, and beyond.
