Please Oppose Warmonger, Execution and Torture Supporting Brett Kavanaugh
Kavanaugh worked with G W Bush for the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan and the torture of prisoners. He supports big business over employees, wardens over prisoners, the rights of the wealthy to steal elections. He refused a detained teen the right of an abortion. He ratified a DC agency forcing medical procedures on the disabled against their will.
A majority of Americans oppose nominee for the Supreme Court Brett Kavanaugh and his record. He was nominated by Donald Trump for whom less than 1/4 of US eligible voters voted, a man whose campaign was studded with crimes of fraud. Senators Booker, Warren, Feingold and others have said that Trump, under criminal investigation, should not nominate anyone. Why should citizens work to defeat the Kavanaugh nomination?
Please if you agree call 202 224 3121, the Senate and make your views known on talk shows, to friends, etc.
1 Theft of 2000 Election
Judge Brett Kavanaugh helped Bush steal the election in which the majority of voters voted for Al Gore.
2 Violation of Clinton's Right To Privacy
Kavanaugh helped Ken Starr spend 45 million dollars violating Bill Clinton's constitutional right to privacy in his consensual sex life. Clinton was the victim of a black op (Linda Tripp of Delta Force and Lucianne Goldberg of Regnery were coconspirators) because Clinton would not invade Iraq. Starr chose Kavanaugh to write the final report in which Kavanaugh included unnecessarilly salacious details. Kavanaugh called for Clinton's impeachment.
3 Opposes Net Neutrality
Kavanaugh thinks net neutrality violates the 1st amendment.
The truth is the opposite. He is on the side of huge media companies who want to censor and slow down freedom of speech on the internet.Kavanaugh was overruled by other judges on the DC Circuit Court. He is opposed to net neutrality while the majority ruled broadband is a utility not a luxury. Because of Republicans who agree with him, huge media companies are now blocking websites, censoring content, and slowing down websites at will.

7 Kavanaugh Believes Guardians Have The Right To Force Medical Procedures On Clients
The Autistic Self Advocacy Netw opposes Kavanaugh In Doe ex rel. Tarlow v. D.C., Judge Kavanaugh ruled against two women who had been forced to have abortions and one woman who was forced to have eye surgery. The D.C. agency over people with developmental disabilities consented to all three procedures without discussing them with the women. Kavanaugh wrote that because the women lacked “capacity” to make their own medical decisions independently, they had no right even to be consulted
Is it inconsistent that Kavanaugh prevented an abortion forcing teen in detention to have child but ruled in favor in another case in which authorities forced abortions on women. In both cases Kavanaugh deferred to authority figures rather than individuals

10. Almost Always Sides With Employers Over Employees

Many question that living beings can survive global baking without earth protecting action.

16. Male Interference In Woman's Right To Choose
Brett Kavanaugh would put the cold violating hand of 5 Republican male justices as well as male legislators in states on a woman's body denying her the sovereign right to decide her own life. This is the more serious because millions or tens of millions of women have in the past died of placental abruptions, of bleeding to death, of breech births, of sepsis, of myriad causes of iatrogenic or physician error, of infections when forced to seek a nonlegal abortionist.
17. Senator Ted Kennedy's Opposition
Senator Edward M Kennedy about Brett Kavanaugh: "(He is) the youngest, least experienced and most partisan candidate in years", Kavanaugh's nomination was stalled for 3 years because of his heinous record in helping steal the people's election from Al Gore as a member of Bush's team, his unconstitutional harassment of Bill Clinton whose impeachment was fueled by those angered that he would not invade Iraq etc.
18. 911 Lies
Ashley Kavanaugh, Brett Kavanaugh's wife was personal secretary to G W Bush in the White House and like Brett Kavanugh was in the White House on Sept 11, 2001. Brett Kavanaugh is part of the coverup of the truth of the World Trade Center explosion . http://911truth.org
19. Federalist Society Antidemocratic
Donald Trump selected Brett Kavanaugh because of the 25 judges on the rightwing Federalist list of Leonard Leo, Kavanaugh is the one who most strongly has written that no one has a right to indict a sitting president. (Perhaps Kavanaugh thinks no one should b able to impeach a president.)

Is it not inconsistent to call oneself prolife while favoring judicial murder and illegal war?
26. Catholics On Court
Kavanaugh if confirmed would make the Court 55% Catholic John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Sam Alito, Sotomayor are all Catholic. In exchange for the silence of US Catholic bishops about illegal wars, Bush 1 and 2 gave them Catholics for the Supreme Court. Prolife did not mean antiwar or antiexecution for the male Catholics.
https://religionnews.com/2018/07/12/why-catholics-and-jews-dominate-at-t...
27. US Supreme Court Most Powerful In World .. Antidemocratic
The Supreme Court, a recent author of a book about it said, has given more power to the justices than any other court in the world. These Republican men are not elected by the people. They as of this time are assigned to lifetime terms. This antidemocratic institution is the dead hand of the past. Who is guilty of contempt for this court? The entire world.
28. Kavanaugh Enemy Of Voting Rights

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/13/opinion/sunday/voting-rights-voter-id-kavanaugh.html

35. The Stars

Pope Francis has just decreed that opposition to the death penalty is inherently a corollary of human dignity. Yet Kavanaugh chose to work for G W Bush, the most executing governor in US history, a man who sent over 150 to their deaths. In that list were included innocents, the mentally ill, the mentally challenged, citizens of Canada, Mexico and Germany illegally denied access to their consulates.
40. Torture

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/29/us/brett-kavanaugh-signing-statements.html

Kavanaugh devised the invasive unconstitutional questions asked to Clinton after subpoena'd.

51. Creator Of Super PACs
Kavanaugh believes the wealthy have more right to influence political opinion than the middle class or poor. He created the Super PAC and supports the SCOTUS decision that money is a form of speech.

******************
Senator Schumer wrote
'“From the notorious Starr report, to the Florida recount, to the President’s secrecy and privilege claims, to post-9/11 legislative battles including the Victims Compensation Fund, to ideological judicial nomination fights, if there has been a partisan political fight that needed a very bright legal foot soldier in the last decade, Brett Kavanaugh was probably there.”
A stream of new informati on has come in in regards to Trump's nominee for the Supreme Court, Brett Kavanaugh.
