FBI says it got more than 4,500 tips on Kavanaugh, providing 'relevant' ones to White House

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

The FBI disclosed that it received more than 4,500 tips on a phone line in 2018 as part of a background investigation into then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and provided "relevant" ones to former President Donald Trump's White House counsel.

The exact number of tips was disclosed in a June 30 letter released by Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse on Thursday. The letter was in response to a two-year-old request from Senate Democrats seeking more information about the handling of the investigation.

The revelation reignited fierce accusations from liberals who say that the FBI and the Trump White House did not sufficiently examine allegations against Kavanaugh in the wake of accusations from Dr. Christine Blasey Ford that he had sexually assaulted her at a party in the Maryland suburbs when they were both in high school.

The allegations nearly derailed his confirmation, and Kavanaugh has always fiercely denied them. Kavanaugh was ultimately confirmed by a vote of 50-48.

And the Trump Whitehouse ignored them all.

2. Well...

... the Trump WH wanted judges that would treat women the way Crooked Donald and his ilk thought they should be treated... the allegations elevated Kavanaugh, in their eyes.

He is a festering embarrassment to the court.

5. Has a Supreme Court judge ever been removed?

Is there such a thing?

6. They can be impeached and removed just like the President

Only one has been impeached, Samuel Chase in 1805, and he was acquitted in the Senate.
