In 2004 and 2006, as nominee to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit court, Brett Kavanaugh repeatedly and unequivocally denied that he ever received stolen materials in the early 2000s during his time at the Bush White House. The materials in question were stolen from Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats as they drafted plans for their strategy for judicial nominees put forward by then President Bush.
During the September 2018 confirmation hearings for now Supreme Court nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, emails were uncovered that outright contradict his previous testimony to the Senate. This brazen attempt to hide the extent of Brett Kavanaugh's knowledge of the stolen materials is highly unethical for any judicial nominee, let alone a nominee for Supreme Court justice!
This deliberate attempt to hide the full extent of Kavanaugh's receipt and handling of stolen materials deserves a full investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice and must be conducted prior to any vote on whether to confirm Brett Kavanaugh.
A lifetime judicial appointment to our nation's highest court deserves the fullest scrutiny possible -- especially if the nominee has potentially lied under oath to the Senate -- an egregious assault on our nation's judicial system.
Add your name now to demand the U.S. Department of Justice investigate Brett Kavanaugh's statement to the Senate.
