Kavanaugh’s background is extensive and serves as perhaps the poster child for someone to serve on the United States Supreme Court.

Kavanaugh will vote to further degrade civil liberties and target women, minorities, immigrants, gays and elevate corporate power, executive branch power and any level of law enforcement over everyone in the name of god-almighty.

A fifth conservative on the Supreme Court wouldn’t necessarily render Roe a dead decision walking. But even if Roe were overturned, abortion wouldn’t suddenly be banned — the issue would simply revert back to states or fall to Congress, where the democratic process would once again take hold.

In politics it’s important to keep your eyes on the prize and the prize right now is winning a bunch of elections in November. As a practical matter, ICE won’t be abolished and talking about it does not help the bigger cause.

A lot of high-fives were being exchanged among Republican campaign donors a couple of weeks ago when the U.S. Supreme Court decided that public employees couldn’t be required to pay their fair share of union costs to win them pay raises, fringe benefits and job safety.

The future of the Roe decision along with the Affordable Care Act will be the defining issues in this confirmation fight. It will be long, harsh, and at times maddening.

Kavanaugh has been an open advocate for precisely the sort of imperial presidency that the founders of the American experiment feared—and that Donald Trump relishes.

Bryce has been arrested nine times. It takes a special kind of failure to accumulate that kind of record. If you know anybody who comes close to that record, you probably don’t think, “He should run for public office.”

The iron law of supply and demand still rules – and for the time being that law works in favor of Wisconsin’s soybean farmers – if they know how to play their cards.

America’s economy is growing in many ways, but the Trump-Harley dispute shows how the economy could suffer if companies are forced by government to make choices they would rather not make.
