The Republican Party is HIDING over a MILLION pages of Brett Kavanaugh's record. (Most of it is from when he served in George W. Bush's White House.)

What are you hiding, @ChuckGrassley?

The American people deserve to know.

#ReleaseTheRecords
Let's be very clear here:

The Republican Party REVIEWED THESE HIDDEN RECORDS THEN DECIDED NOT TO RELEASE THEM.

What are they hiding?

The American people deserve to know.

#ReleasetheRecords
By HIDING Kavanaugh's record, the Republican Party is BREAKING THE LAW.

The Presidential Records Act is very clear that these files are part of the public domain and belong to the American people.

What are you hiding, @ChuckGrassley?

Adderall is an amphetamine which makes your pupils dilate. This is a person sitting in front of bright TV lights whose pupils should be contracted.

Side effects of Adderall addiction include aggression, memory loss, mania, impulsivity and disorientation.
Here's Noel Casler, a comedian and former crew member from the Celebrity Apprentice talking about Trump's habit of crushing Adderall and snorting it, which is a highly-abusive way to take the drug.
I would argue that it's very relevant (and quite disturbing) that the man who has the nuclear codes and thus the ability to destroy the entire planet may have a drug addiction which causes rage, mania and disorientation.

99.9% of Americans earn less than $10 million a year.

Taxing 0.1% of the population 70% on every dollar AFTER their first ten million would NOT harm the economy.

What other countries spend on health care & infrastructure, we spend on low taxes for the super wealthy.
This type of spending is GOOD for the economy since accumulated wealth doesn't circulate while the economic benefit of improved infrastructure, education and health care is MASSIVELY beneficial to productivity (not to mention quality of life for 320 million people).
I'm seeing this argument in conservative circles that taxing the rich is "unethical."

What utter horseshit.

What's unethical is letting people die in the street from inadequate health care just so some banker can afford a second yacht.

Right now in America people are donating money they don’t have to build a wall they don’t need to solve a problem that doesn’t exist.
The GoFundMe for the Wall has raised about $3 million in 3 days.

At this rate, the Wall will be fully-funded by...2086.

Racists are bad at math.
My favorite part of all this,

Cost of border Wall:
$25,000,000,000.00

Cost of anti-border Wall device:
$15.97

#Kavanaugh tweet storm beginning now:

1/
Today’s confirmation of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court is the most significant judicial victory for conservatives of my lifetime. All conservatives should thank @SenMajLdr & @ChuckGrassley for their extraordinary leadership through a grueling battle.

2/
Moving the court from 5-4 liberal to 5-4 conservative will have sweeping ramifications for the country. Most importantly, it will restore the rule of law & the Constitution. Democrat efforts to end run state legislatures, Congress & the executive branch will now be fruitless.

#Kavanaugh THREAD:

David Brock on NBC: “I used to know Brett Kavanaugh pretty well. And, when I think of Brett now, in the midst of his hearings for a lifetime appointment to the U.S. Supreme Court, all I can think of is the old "Aesop's Fables" adage: (1)
"A man is known by the company he keeps." And that's why I want to tell any senator who cares about our democracy: Vote no. Twenty years ago, when I was a conservative movement stalwart, I got to know Brett Kavanaugh both professionally and personally. (2)
Brett actually makes a cameo appearance in my memoir of my time in the GOP, "Blinded By The Right." I describe him at a party full of zealous young conservatives gathered to watch President Bill Clinton's 1998 State of the Union address — (3)

Why was Brett Kavanaugh, during his tenure in George W. Bush’s White House, in communication with The Federalist Society’s Leonard Leo using his government email account?

@SenateDems
Kavanaugh is a thirty-year member of The Federalist Society, who claimed to not fully understand the organization under questioning from Senator Durbin in 2004.
Kavanaugh’s Whitewater team partner, Assistant Attorney General for the DOJ’s Criminal Division Brian Benczkowski, was less clear with Senator Durbin.

GOP wants a vote on #Kavanaugh for #SCOTUS before documents are released. Many asking #WhatAreTheyHiding?

He was with G.W. Bush, 2000-2006.

Thought someone should do a thread of all controversies during that time that they might be hiding. Continued⤵

This thread ended up being longer than I anticipated, turns out the George W. Bush admin had more than a few controversies—I expect I missed a few things.

If you notice something big I missed, comment with reputable news article, and I’ll quote tweet your comment onto the thread
The 2000 FL Vote recount (Florida law required recount for a razor close election, Bush legal team argued to end it, eventually successfully before the #SCOTUS … he was on the Bush legal team).

So I am going to re-iterate the reason why I started this blitz and then randomly stopped due to tiredness.
Joseph Schmitz's family history actually revolves around the Bushes.

His brother, John Schmitz, worked as Deputy Legal Counsel to Vice President H. W. Bush for three years, until 1989, when he then served President H. W. Bush as White House Deputy Counsel throughout his terms.
John Schmitz also helped Barbara Bush establish her Foundation For Family Literacy, and travelled with Barbara and George H. W. on tripes to Berlin and Point Alpha.
