There is a bit of retconning of the Kavanaugh nomination controversy going on in your big media podcasts this morning.
Contrary to what you’ll hear, Ds mainly asked to call Deborah Ramirez, Mark Judge and other potentially corroborating witnesses to testify or to have FBI do a thorough investigation, which Grassley resisted. ‘Zero tolerance’ really was not the way they handled it, pace NYT/CNN.
One way you know Democrats in the minority weren’t running around demanding “zero tolerance” in September 2018 is the Trump administration had just finished making that term thoroughly toxic by connecting it with its family separation policy at the border.
