...and no, Gavin McInnes is NOT a nazi or white supremacist. :roll:

Gavin McInnes is a conservative whiner. He appears on Fox News regularly and is a host of other right wing outlets. So he's being deplatformed? Well, when you play dirty, expect some dirt back at ya. Republicans and Trump have withheld 100,000 pages of documents from the Democrats during those Kavanaugh hearings, all in the effort to hide his past dubious judicial decisions during the Bush Administration. They also decided to dump 42,000 more pages on the Senate Democrats the night before the hearings started, giving them no time to review them before those hearings started.

On top of that, Judge Kavanaugh appears to have lied to Congress in 2006 during his conformation hearings when he was appointed to the federal bench. Specifically, the lying was about whether he was involved with torture decisions concerning terrorist detainees during his stint at the Bush Administration. He denies it today, but those documents hold evidence that appear to say otherwise. The pinched-mouth bastard deserves to be grilled to the Nth degree before he's confirmed to the highest court in the land, if at all.

What's a shame for Republicans is that there were far better candidates that Trump could have picked from that would've had an easier time of sailing through those conformation hearings. Kavanaugh is very problematic and was probably only picked by Trump because of Kavansugh's opinion that president's shouldn't be investigated or indicted while in office.

With that- I do agree completely TC. Definitely not the best pick.

This is the stupidest thing I've seen recently, and that's saying something since you just posted a ★■◆●ing QAnon video. Is the argument really that Kavanaugh is being "deplatformed" because there are protestors in his hearings? You know who was "deplatformed?" Merrick Garland.

Hell, Garland was never given a chance to even get ON the platform in the first place.

What's worse than a demoncat or a reptilican is controlled opposition scum like QAnon and Alex Jones.
