The confirmation hearing for Brett Kavanaugh gets started in a few minutes, but we’re already seeing excerpts from his opening statement, which include this praise for Merrick Garland, who we all know was President Obama’s choice to replace Justice Scalia until Cocaine Mitch went full Cali cartel on Senate Dems:
In his opening statement, Kavanaugh will offer praise to his Appeals Court colleague Merrick Garland, calling him a "superb chief judge." Garland was nominated to the Supreme Court in 2016 by Pres Obama, but GOP Senate leaders blocked hearings and a vote.

In his opening remarks, Brett Kavanaugh will praise Merrick Garland as a "superb chief judge." He later adds that if confirmed, he would be "committed to deciding cases according to the Constitution and laws of the U.S. I would always strive to be a team player…"

Well, we love it! Praise Merrick Garland to own the libs:
Kavanaugh praising Merrick Garland after his cabal pulled off a political hit job on this decent, distinguished jurist is one of the most hypocritical and cynical things I've ever seen in politics, which is saying a lot #KavanaughConfirmation

This really is going to be a fun day:
I find Kavanugh's reference to Garland in his opening statements offensive. If he thinks so highly of him, where was he when Garland was being blocked from his rightful hearing? #StopKavanaugh https://t.co/Y4vSVj0REv
