We are calling for a strike from October 10 through October 12 to protest the illegitimate confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh to SCOTUS. #StrikeAgainstKavanaugh
We demand that any candidate who seeks election to Congress in November commits to the impeachment of this illegitimate justice to uphold any semblance of rule of law. #StrikeAgainstKavanaugh
This strike is organized by law students, but we invite students at all levels, lawyers, and nonlegal members of the public to participate. #StrikeAgainstKavanaugh
If you would like to help coordinate on your campus, or support the strike in other ways, please fill out this form: goo.gl/forms/F4D6FpKz…

Let it be our promise to every future life that is destroyed, changed, or affected by a Justice #Kavanaugh that we will make it a priority to see Sasse, Manchin, and Collins suffer for their vote today.

They must lose their Senate seats, and be reminded everyday why.

If we can't manage to focus long enough to carry through on our threats to our elected leaders who betray us then there will never be a reason to fear us. There will never be a reason to reconsider a decision or vote.

And maybe no mistake, @SenatorCollins must be made an example of, if only because so much focus was placed on her and her decision making process.

But also because of that poisonous victim blaming/ shaming speech she delivered yesterday.

SUSAN COLLINS MUST LOSE IN 2020.

Judge Brett Kavanaugh has arrived for the second part of today’s hearing.
Kavanaugh: "You have replaced 'advice and consent' with 'search and destroy.'" This is not the same statement Kavanaugh submitted. buzzfeednews.com/article/blakem…
Kavanaugh, as part of his fiery speech, says this all is, in part, "revenge on behalf of the Clintons."

Starting today's Kavanaugh thread with the now-deleted tweets from last night from the Senate Judiciary Committee's Republican chief counsel for nominations — and his explanation this morning for those tweets (and for his having deleted them).
Note: Mike Davis worked on nominations in the George W. Bush White House political affairs office while Brett Kavanaugh's DC Circuit nomination was pending, per his LinkedIn bio. (More recently, he rejoined his old 10th Circuit boss, Neil Gorsuch, briefly as a SCOTUS clerk.)
Family of Dr. Ford puts out a letter of support, per @bridgitmendler, who calls Ford her aunt:

Day three of Brett Kavanaugh's #SCOTUS confirmation hearing is set to begin in about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, protesters have taken over Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Chuck Grassley's office
Here's Kavanaugh coming in. Grassely has gaveled in to start the hearing, and begins by addressing the controversy over the public release of confidential documents, saying Dems "only have themselves to blame if they didn't get the documents they wanted"
Grassley said that in order to accomodate last-minute requests to release committee confidential documents, they're working with the Justice Dept. to get those out. Grassley says that before the day is over, members will have the docs they want to ask Qs

Judge Brett Kavanaugh's #SCOTUS hearings kick off this morning. Dems are furious at the number of docs being withheld re: his time in the White House under W. Bush. Republicans are defending the extent of disclosures. @chrisgeidner has been on it -->
The Kavanaugh hearing just got started and there's already chaos. Dems are interrupting Grassley as he starts to read his opening statement to protest the latest production of docs right before the hearing. Blumenthal is moving to adjourn. Grassley says they will proceed.
It began with Sen. Harris jumping in as soon as Grassley began, to say they had not been given the opportunity to review documents. Sen. Blumenthal pressed to adjourn. Now Sen. Booker is calling for time to debate the process.

⚡️LONG THREAD ⚡️

@SenateDems have done an about-face on Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s #SCOTUS nomination.

At first, they had no doubt he was anything less than an existential threat to the Constitution. If he were confirmed, they said, millions of lives would be lost...
Now, they are claiming we have no idea who Kavanaugh is or what kind of #SCOTUS justice he would be. Solving that mystery, they say, requires putting the confirmation process on hold while they access more than 1 million documents related to Kavanaugh’s service in the Bush WH.
This demand raises an obvious question: What is the point of this demand, since the Democrats making it announced their opposition to Kavanaugh before President Trump even announced that he was the nominee?
