BREAKING: Chairman Grassley has unilaterally ruled 1/3 of the #Kavanaugh records to be “Committee Confidential” meaning anyone not on Judiciary Committee cannot see them. That’s 79 Senators & the entire American public. It’s an unprecedented level of secrecy. #WhatAreTheyHiding?

1. Just one question

HOW THE FUCK DO THEY GET AWAY WITH THIS SHIT???????

[edhopper]

10. Small Rural States get two Senators

[Haggis for Breakfast]

12. Someone should challenge him on this.

Figure out which Senate rule allows a loop hole and charge right through it. Grassley has played the pitbull for too long. He may have the authority to do this, but he doesn't have the right. The American people have rights too and we deserve to know what's in Kavanaugh's record that Grassley would find it necessary to put it out of reach. It's time some one stood up to Chuck the Puck.

We're stuck with Gorsuch (Anyone remember his mother, Ann ?), which is appalling after what they did to Merrick Garland.

I say fight it. Find anything to obstruct but do not allow another judge to be seated by trmp. Stall if necessary.

The man is 85 years old and has been in Congress for 37 years. Iowa, you deserve better. When is Grassley up for re-election ?

2. WTF

Expect leaks

[Dawson Leery]

3. More corrupt conservatives.

[BSdetect]

4. One Dem should take one for the team and release all the records.

K is obviously not fit to be on the SC

8. this nt

[dchill]

14. It has come to that.

[Va Lefty]

5. Definitely all in with his fellow traitor McConnell

Remind me again why we stopped tarring and feathering people like this.

[Haggis for Breakfast]

13. Well, mainly it was meant as a form of punishment

but too many people died after the procedure.

I saw we bring back "drawing and quartering." Now THAT is something that fits the bill.

6. Wow, Poof Goes Our Democracy

Trump, would be dictator he is, is still being enabled by other republicans like Grassley.

We are in a place I never thought we would be in during my lifetime. This is so alarming.

[Grasswire2]

7. where is our Edward Snowden....or Daniel Ellsberg? nt

Open the spigot.

[Grasswire2]

9. Are they considered classified? nt

[Duppers]

15. Indeed. Are they?

Can't they be sued and released from the National Archives under the Freedom of Information Act?

11. old traitor.
