2018 Crookie Award: Brett Kavanaugh (C&L)

Guaranteed to turn our stomachs for then next 40 years, at least, Angry White Man Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed and sworn in as a Supreme Court justice after dragging the woman he allegedly assaulted across hot, fiery coals.



Above, we have the only good thing to come of the monster we endured this year in the form of Brett Kavanaugh's hearings and SCOTUS confirmation. Matt Damon just killed it on SNL in a scathing and brilliant impersonation, and gave us the chance to laugh during the darkest of dark times. No matter how cynical or knowing the laughter, it's relief and release nonetheless.

In addition to Kavanaugh's "alleged" sexual assault on Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, (which technically may not even be eligible for this year's Crookies, since it happened in high school,) he gave us many other opportunities for nomination just during the confirmation process itself this fall. - Crooks and Liars


Linked video is the full SNL skit, only 4 mins longer than that which is linked on C&L
