Can we impeach Kavanaugh for under oath.

It seems a forgone that Kavanaugh will be confirmed, tomorrow, to be a lifetime Justice at the United States Supreme Court.

The Republicans delayed Garland for near a year and Will ram through Kavanaugh, in short order.

So, the big question is, when you go vote, this November, and we take back the House & Senate, -

Can we impeach Kavanaugh, for lying under oath?

If he's indicted, he will have to step down, the Republicans will force him to.

...plus it will hopefully set a precedent that these lying f*cks can't lie with impunity and get away with it...

a two-thirds supermajority of the US Senate must convict for the judge or justice to lose their office.
