Justice Kavanaugh Rejects GoFundMe Cash

Good for him.

Citing judicial ethics concerns, Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh declined more than $600,000 that was donated to aid his family during the firestorm over sexual misconduct allegations that plagued his confirmation. The judge’s decision was announced on Tuesday in a message posted on the online fundraising pagethat gathered the funds.

[…]

Supreme Court justices are actually not bound by the codified ethics rules that apply to other federal judges, the Code of Conduct for United States Judges. However, it appears that Kavanaugh’s statement is drawn largely from those rules, which provide that other than in a few narrowly drawn scenarios, “a judge should not personally participate in fund-raising activities, solicit funds for any organization, or use or permit the use of the prestige of judicial office for that purpose.”

    Unfortunately, the liberals that started this weaponizing of ideology in this hearing are enriching themselves…over false witness allegations.

    “weaponizing of ideology”

    That’s really funny when you chant, “lock her up”!

    “That’s really funny when you chant, “lock her up”!”

    Remember, it’s not being chanted with malice or hate. Always chanted in the most lovingly manner by people who have jobs.

    Rampant “whataboutism” in a focused discussion about how a proclaimed villian by the Left is actually higher in moral fiber than most.

    And these two fools actually have spent time here bitching about not staying on topic or not bringing in unrelated persons. Too much hypocrisy from both.

    Pasty smirks:  Always chanted in the most lovingly manner by people who have jobs.

    As opposed to screaming  “F*CK TRUMP!!!” and smashing cars and windows of  local businesses by nimrods who don’t,  you mean.

    But I admit it’s true.  We – all good law abiding folk, that is – would certainly would love to have Hildabeast,  orange pantsuit included, locked in some Fed Pen (Alderson would do).  It would spare us her insufferable croaky voice and insatiable attention seeking.

    Double Hat Tip to Judge K.   A man with more integrity in his fingernail than all of the Democrap party combined.

    mjmumbles:

    “insatiable attention seeking.”

    You got confused there, t-rump is the attention seeker.  Just one of his many sterling attributes, like serial lying.

    Nort looks in the mirror:  You got confused there

    “Trump  Trump  Trumptee  Trump-oo-la Trumpity Trump”

    Boring.

    Yes, you are.

    LeRoy is proof of an unhinged blew wave.

    Yup.  I love my country far more than I love that doddering old bint.
