KAVANAUGH INVESTIGATION: NOTHING WILL BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR DEMOCRATS
Editorial by Kevin Ryan

When, moments after President Trump announced his choice of Brett Kavanaugh to replace outgoing Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy, a liberal group released a statement opposing the choice that began: “In response to Donald Trump’s nomination of XX to the Supreme Court…”, it was already obvious that Democrats were going to oppose Tump’s choice no matter who he nominated.

And throughout every step of the confirmation process, no matter what Kavanaugh did, it wasn’t enough for Democrats.

• When Kavanaugh released over half a million documents, more than the last 5 nominees combined, Democrats claimed it wasn’t enough, and asked what he was hiding.

• When Kavanaugh repeatedly reassured Democrats that he believed Roe vs. Wade was settled law, they insisted instead that he would overturn the law.

• After Kavanaugh skated through his confirmation hearings unscathed, Democrats submitted 1,278 follow-up questions to him, more than were submitted to every past nominee in history… combined. And he answered them.

• When an FBI background check, the sixth of his career, produced nothing disqualifying or damaging, Democrats leaked uncorroborated sexual assault accusations and demanded the Judiciary Committee reopen the hearings.

• When the Judiciary Committee reopened the hearing, and testimony from accuser Christine Blasey Ford failed to provide any corroborating evidence, Democrats demanded the FBI investigate.

And now that President Trump has ordered the FBI to investigate, Democrats will invariably say it’s not enough. Indeed there are already complaints that the FBI is not doing enough, and calls for a full criminal investigation. This ignores that fact that a federal criminal investigation requires a federal crime to have occurred, and no such crime is alleged. And the only authority with jurisdiction to investigate Ford’s accusations, the Maryland State Attorney’s Office, has already replied to calls for an investigation by pointing out that no criminal complaint has been filed, and even if it were, the statute of limitations has run out.

“To date, there have been no criminal reports filed with the Montgomery County Department of Police that would lead to the initiation of any criminal investigation related to Judge Kavanaugh. Furthermore, the law at the time the offense occurred is the law that must be applied to any charges that might be brought. For example, in 1982, assault and attempted rape were both misdemeanors and subject to a one-year statue of limitations,” The Montgomery County Chief of Police and State's Attorney said in a joint statement.

Either way, no matter the outcome of any investigation, Democrats will say it wasn’t enough. That’s because, right from the beginning, they had no intention of ever voting for Kavanaugh, one of the most well qualified nominees in history. And that has nothing to do with how many documents he provided or questions he answered or background checks he passed. They’re not going to vote for him for one simple reason.

He’s not a liberal activist judge.

Last month, President Trump ordered the DOJ and FBI to immediately declassify the underlying documents behind the Obama administration's decision to start spying on the Trump campaign.

These are the initial surveillance warrants that the Obama administration used to convince a judge to authorize their surveillance of Donald Trump and his aides.

President Trump is the top classification authority in the United States. He has the authority to unilaterally classify or declassify whatever government documents he wants. On paper, no one else in government has the authority to overrule him.

Which is why this is so remarkable. The Deep State flat-out refused to comply with Pres. Trump's order. They refused to declassify the evidence and deferred the direction to the DOJ's Inspector General to decide whether Trump's directive is 'proper.'

The reason for their treason is simple. They know that if the American people learn about how the Trump-Russia investigation began — with a uncorroborated Clinton campaign smear document — the whole investigation would be shut down. The Deep State is on a mission to correct what the American people 'got wrong' in 2016 and remove Trump from office. That is why they're refusing to release the documents.

There is no other way to describe it: This is a coup d'etat.
