Its been a while since I’ve gone on a rant, but I got something to say. Please RT. Brett Kavanaugh has no place on the Supreme Court. He’s credibly accused of sexually assaulting multiple women. One even thought he might accidentally kill her. Think about that. #WithdrawKavanaugh
Republicans offer the same thoughts and prayers response for survivors of sexual assault, as they do to victims of mass shootings. They’ve literally done nothing tangible to actually protect anyone. They even tried to cover up for Kavanaugh. This is unAmerican. #WithdrawKavanaugh
Kavanaugh’s attitude with Senator Klobuchar where he acted like a fourth grader, should be enough to disqualify him from ANY bench. This is not a judge. This is a Fox News pundit. The worst nominee for the Supreme Court in US history. And unqualified for it. #WithdrawKavanaugh
Completely separate from the sexual assault claims, he is a pathologically lying partisan hack. And those are facts. Not only that, he has been running his own smear campaign with Trump against Democrats. THIS IS NOT A CANDIDATE. THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A JUDGE. #WithdrawKavanaugh

Help us investigate something extremely important here-please read the whole string.

What kind of plane is this?

Can anyone tell where this picture took place? Based on the ground, maybe?
I know it’s blurry but on a world map, where is this? Is it Canada?
Here’s interior of plane.

I know it’s Labor Day weekend, but please remember @realDonaldTrump still has 500 refugee children locked up in cages he separated from their parents. And he hasn’t even tried to reunite them. Plus thousands died in Puerto Rico. Someone needs to be held accountable for all of it.
Listen to my interview below with a pre-med student who volunteers at the border giving first aid to refugees after leaving ICE prisons. The stories she tells are horrifying-ICE agents are threatening those who ask for medical help #DworkinReport #LaborDay

Listen to my interview below, where a pre-med student who gives first aid to refugees at the border, reveals the fact some ICE agents are mentally and physically abusing refugee children. And leaving ICE prisons covered in lice. #DworkinReport #LaborDay

THREAD: #Kavanaugh was an objectively-terrible witness. He was obtuse. He was evasive. He lost his cool. He, at best, was extremely loose with verifiable truths.

How could he be SOOOO BAD, right?

I'll tell you how he could be so bad. Because "Judge Kavanaugh"...

1/
... is not, and has never been, the type of "Judge" most think of and, frankly, the same is true of him as an attorney.

Yeah, he has a Bar card. Yeah, he wears a black robe.

But here is a question that no Senator asked but I wish one had...

2/
"Judge, how many TRIALS have you participated in as a judge, attorney, or law clerk?"

Would you believe me that the answer is likely way lower than his age at the time when Dr. Ford alleges he assaulted her?

Well... it definitely is. Lemme explain.

By raging he's being framed by a Clinton revenge plot conspiracy, Kavanaugh echoed Trump propagandists discrediting Mueller & Russia probe. That in itself is disqualifying from sitting on the Supreme Court. It also proves he won't be an impartial arbiter on those & other matters.
Forget the alleged sexual assault & lies for a moment. Kavanaugh's partisan rant about a left-wing smear conspiracy is so off-the-rails improper for someone whose job is literally to DISPASSIONATELY & fairly interpret facts & law before him. And he wants a promotion to SCOTUS??
Maybe #Kavanaugh's not a conspiracy theorist. But he is consciously echoing Trump. He altered strategy from choir-boy Fox interview b/c Trump didn't like it. Kav's already bending to the executive who named him, like the political operative he is at heart. And will be on SCOTUS.

Why I think #Kavanaugh is lying:
1. Dr. Ford's sessions with a therapist where she named him and the boys with him happened six years ago.
2. Brett Kavanaugh's calendar proves he went to parties with Mark Judge and P.J. - Dr. Ford named these two men BEFORE his calendar was made public. If she didn't "hang in the same circles" as Brett Kavanaugh, how would she know this?
3. Brett Kavanaugh testified that he and Dr. Ford (Christine Blasey - a 15 year old teenager - at the time) did not "travel in the same social circles."

He was friends with young women from similar backgrounds. Who attended private, Catholic girls schools.

I'm a sociologist who studies adolescent sexual violence. In this thread, I offer the basic facts everyone should know about sexual assault to make sense of the #Kavanaugh allegations. (And citations in case you want to read up yourself.)
Sexual violence is common, especially among adolescents. The best studies estimate that as many as 10.8% of young men commit an act of rape before graduating from college. jamanetwork.com/journals/jamap…
Most of these men don't harbor a particular hatred for women, but instead use violence and harassment as a way to bond with other men and assert their masculinity. journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.117…

don't share pics of the Parks much... mostly because I can't take pictures for the life of me, but I wanted to share this.

The Old Courthouse, the place where Dread Scott fought for his freedom. It was short lived for him, yet was also a crucial point in US history....
It's also worth noting that the Supreme Court ruled against Dred Scott..

The ruling was that he was not a citizen, not a real person, that he was only property.

This is what happens when racist bigots hold power....

This is what is at risk if #Kavanaugh takes a seat in the Supreme Court.

We cannot allow for what is now seen as the ultimate symbol of justice to revert to these older times. We cannot allow for it to be a political weapon as it may soon become...

The majority of the #Kavanaugh discussion has focused on his politics, but we should be more immediately worried about his inclination to cede oversight of the Executive by the Judiciary & Congress.

This would mean the death of American democracy.... and our policies with it. /1
Brett Kavanaugh's nomination to #SCOTUS isn't just a threat to 2 centuries of American policy progress; it's a threat to our very Republic.

Kavanaugh's track record indicates he'd grant Trump expanded power & further open the door to Trump's ongoing authoritarian power grab. 2/
In 1999 Kavanaugh floated the idea that the Supreme Court was wrong to compel Nixon to turn over the Watergate tapes and other subpoenaed materials that ultimately led to his resignation (to avoid impeachment). 3/
