The conservative knives come out for Brett Kavanaugh

Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh could soon help deliver on something conservatives have been pining for for a very long time: a significant rollback of abortion rights in America.

But for now, he’s getting attacked — in thoroughly personal terms — by some of the most prominent Republicans in the country.

Kavanaugh on Thursday joined with the court’s five other conservatives to strike down President Biden’s vaccine-or-testing mandate for large businesses. But in a separate decision, he and Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. joined with the court’s three liberal justices in allowing Biden’s separate vaccine mandate for health-care workers to move forward.

Fox News host Tucker Carlson got the ball rolling Thursday night by muttering that Kavanaugh was a “cringing little liberal.”

Maybe Carlson and Kavanaugh can have a big boof off.

often makes for two enemies.

>> Maybe Carlson and Kavanaugh can have a big boof off.

I never heard the word "boof" before Kavanaugh's confirmation hearings.

Boof = consuming alcohol via one's anus while in college

Kavanaugh and I are about the same age. I guess I did it all wrong as an undergraduate.

to satisfy?
The level of derangement shows in mounting attacks against an alt-right 6-3 majority Supreme Court. These people are really unhinged.

I posted a video of Tucker Carlson calling him a cringing little liberal. The purpose of the post was less about the incident, and more a discussion about exploit their schisms.
