THREAD #2: A point-by-point breakdown of Judge Kavanaugh's claims about his work on Judge Pryor's nomination.
Exhibit 2: There’s also Kavanaugh’s work on Judge Pryor, who called Roe an abomination. In a 10 minute exchange with Sen. Kennedy about whether he helped “vet” (select and review) Judge Pryor, Kavanaugh explicitly denied any role in his vetting. That was objectively false.
Kavanaugh testified repeatedly that Pryor was “not one that I worked on personally” other than a standard moot session (long after Pryor had been vetted). No senator left his 2004 hearing thinking otherwise.
The reality? Ex. 2a – 2d: Kavanaugh was the one who first recommended Pryor. He was on the “Pryor Working Group” and smaller coordination and strategy groups for the Pryor nomination. He even apparently interviewed Pryor. 
Even in written responses he sent in 7 months later, his only admission to working on Pryor was that he participated in general “meetings of a judicial selection committee” that discussed 19 nominees including Pryor. He did not correct his earlier, unequivocally false testimony.
