@SenWhitehouse You have been by far the most persistent in raising questions about Kavanaugh’s fitness, and I thank you for it. The article below details your questioning of the then nominee’s personal finances. You asked many good questions.

Your 14 pages of questions, however, were put to him after the hearings. He answered evasively and incompletely (as the article describes). As a result, key questions are still unanswered. Why was there no sustained interrogation of Kavanaugh’s finances when it counted ?
Or was there close questioning of his finances in the closed door sessions before the public hearings ? If that’s the case, how could the (obvious) written questions you posed to him later have remained unexplored prior to his confirmation ?
The Committee’s vetting of Kavanaugh was obviously deficient, not least because of Director Wray’s outrageous misdirection. But the financial questions are of continued relevance, because they offer the only realistic path to Kavanaugh’s impeachment.
If Kavanaugh lied in his financial disclosure forms, or to the Committee, or if he is subject to an undisclosed conflict of interest, he can and should be impeached.
