GRASSTOPS USA 08/02/2018 WHO IS RUNNING THE SENATE, McCONNELL OR SCHUMER?

Senate Dems Have Plan On Brett Kavanaugh Nomination: STALL...

       UPDATE 2: Politico reports that Mitch McConnell is now threatening to DELAY the Kavanaugh confirmation vote until the November election. You read that right. As Chuck Schumer threatens to scuttle the Kavanaugh confirmation by DELAYING it, Mitch McConnell is"threatening" to give the Democrats the very thing that they want by threatening to DELAY it as well. 


       For those who missed out on our first update, Drudge is finally reporting what we told you a week ago. Senate liberals have just pulled the trigger on a devious and highly workable plan to stall and then scuttle Judge Brett Kavanaugh's nomination to the Supreme Court and NOW Mitch McConnell is "threatening" to accommodate their strategy and Politico further reports that the Kavanaugh confirmation is now in STALEMATE!  

       But there's more... an adviser to the NAACP has cockily confessed that this effort is a multi-million dollar, well-financed "50 state strategy" that is being organized by "leaders of feminist and abortion rights groups" across the country who are going to use their massive networks to delay and eventually scuttle this nomination. 

       Good old Mitch McConnell... He not only hasn't lifted a finger to stop this obstruction - which he has the power to do - but HE IS ACTUALLY AIDING THE OBSTRUCTION. PERHAPS THAT EXPLAINS WHY HE HAS NOT EVEN SCHEDULED A CONFIRMATION VOTE FOR KAVANAUGH! 

       We're making headway folks but we simply aren't there yet. It's going to take another round of calls and Blast Faxes to force McConnell and GOP Leaders to do their jobs... put an end to the obstructionist foolishness and schedule a vote on the Kavanaugh nomination. Let's get to work.

What Is McConnell's Problem?

       Sadly, your guess is as good as ours. It's possible that McConnell values comity among his fellow senators on the other side of the aisle more than he values winning victories for the American People. 

       Then again, it's also entirely possible that he wants to drag out this confirmation fight as long as humanly possible so Republicans can use a stalled confirmation process as a campaign issue. 

       One thing however is certain. McConnell and GOP Leaders are playing a sick game of politics and they are risking far too much in the process. 

       As we previously pointed out, Senate Democrats have just demanded what may amount to over a million pages of documents. They want everything that Kavanuagh has ever put on paper. 

       Make no mistake, this demand is nothing more than a ham-handed attempt to stall the confirmation of Kavanaugh INDEFINITELY and constitutes an egregious abuse of Senate rules. 

       The folks at Conservative Daily put it best: "They basically want every single piece of paper he has ever touched. If they could, the Left would probably also want to dig through Kavanaugh's pre-school finger paintings." 

       Conservative Daily went on to say, "McConnell has even admitted that Democrats can stall the nomination for months, saying that if they pull this trick, the confirmation vote would have to come in mid-November at the earliest." 

       So what's the big deal? 

       Simply put, mid-November is AFTER the 2018 election, and that's one of the two keys to the Democrats' strategy of obstruction. 

       Democrats hope to either stall the vote until after the election under the hopes that they can retake the Senate and block every nomination that President Trump puts forward for the next two years, or find something in Kavanuagh's writings (perhaps even from 20-25 years ago) that can be twisted out of context and used to peel-off at least one Republican Senator from supporting Kavanugh. 

       Make no mistake, Democrats know the stakes. If Kavanaugh is confirmed, the High Court will lean conservative for over a generation... and that outcomes is unacceptable to the radical left... Democrats are willing to die on this hill. 

       And as we previously warned, one Republican defection is all they need because Senator John McCain is terminally ill. With McCain out of the picture, if even one Republican Senator defects, the Kavanaugh nomination would go down in flames by a 49-50 vote and they will stall until they get that defection!

       Now, before you say that this obstructionist tactic will never work, know thatthe Democrats just successfully employed this very same obstructionist tactic days ago to scuttle the nomination of Ryan W. Bounds to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals (more on Bounds in the next section). 

       And now, Kavanaugh is in the crosshairs. With this trial run out of the way, Democrats are salivating to spring this obstructionist tactic on Kavanaugh. The left-wing Vox even let the cat out of the bag: 

       "Democratic leadership immediately capitalized on Bounds' withdrawal as a means of advancing the case against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. ... 'Republicans just sunk the Bounds nomination based on his college writings,' Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer's communications director Matt House said in a statement. 'After that, how are they going to argue that Judge Kavanaugh's White House papers aren't relevant to his nomination to the Supreme Court?'" 

       We're so sorry Mr. Schumer, but Republicans don't need to argue anything with you. What they need to explain to the American people is why they're allowing you to obstruct this nomination. 

       And now, it is certain. The wheels have been set into motion. The Democrats are SUCCESSFULLY blocking this nomination AT THIS VERY MOMENT because Mitch McConnell will not wield his authority to stop this obstruction and bring the Kavanaugh nomination to the floor for a fair up-or-down vote right now. The obstruction must stop and every single member of the United States Senate (or at least every Republican in the United States Senate) needs to hear that demand from you right now!

When It Comes To Lies That Are Designed To 'Bork' A Nominee, The Left Knows No Bounds!

       For those of you who haven't heard about what just happened to Ryan Bounds, it's vitally important to understand how this obstruction unfolded because Democrats are doing the EXACT SAME THING to Kavanaugh. When you see the name Bounds below, just substitute Kavanaugh. 

       President Trump nominated Ryan Bounds to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeal back in January of 2017, and the nomination stalled because Oregon's two Democrat U.S. Senators, Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley, obstructed the process. 

       Specifically, they refused to return what are called "blue slips," which are opinions that Senators from a nominee's home state publish giving an opinion on a nominee. That refusal stalled the process, and Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans let Wyden and Merkley get away with it. 

       Sixteen months passed and on January 3, 2018, the Senate, returned the Bounds nomination to President Trump's desk. 

       President Trump, in response to this obstruction, re-nominated Bounds two days later. More attempts at obstruction continued... but more four months later, on May 9, 2018, the Senate Judiciary Committee finally advanced Bounds' nomination anyway. 

       Make no mistake, as things presently stand, Democrats can obstruct the Kavanaugh nomination for an equal or even greater period of time BECAUSE MITCH MCCONNELL IS LETTING THEM GET AWAY WITH IT and we're not about to tolerate that level of obstruction. 

       In the meantime, during those TWENTY LONG MONTHS OF OBSTRUCTION, left-wing organizations spent millions of dollars to comb through everything Bounds had ever written and finally came upon some articles he wrote for the Stanford Review when he was a college student, and they twisted passages from articles written by a young college student to FALSELYbrand Bounds as a racist. 

       But here's the surreal part. In those articles, Bounds, in the tradition of the late-Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., argued in FAVOR of a color-blind society through his castigation of some race-based student organizations that betrayed the concept of diversity by promoting racial divisiveness. 

       Here's some of the specific things Bounds wrote: 

       "I submit that the Multiculturalistas, when they divide up by race for their feel-good ethnic hoedowns, engage in nearly all of [the fundamental behaviors of groupthink]... The existence of ethnic organizations is no inevitable prerequisite to maintaining a diverse community..." 

       In another piece, he wrote that groups which falsely claim to promote diversity "seem always to contribute more to restricting consciousness, aggravating intolerance, and pigeonholing cultural identities..." 

       Here's the kicker, Bounds also wrote that some "Race-focused groups foster racethink, and the only way to rid our multicultural community of race-think is to rid it of these invidious factions." 

       And yet, in spite of the fact that Bounds had served for four years as a leader of the Equity, Diversion, and Inclusion Committee of the Multnomah Bar Association in Oregon, Senate Democrats maliciously and falsely branded him as a racist. 

       It's rather ironic when a man who seems to believe that people should be judged on the content of their character rather than the color of their skin and actively dedicates a portion of his life to promoting racial diversity is branded a racist, but a lie can spread around the world before the truth has a chance to get out of bed in the morning; and a number of Republican turncoats, led by Senators Tim Scott and Marco Rubio, decided it was better to embrace the lie rather than defend the truth. 

       Within minutes of Bounds' confirmation vote on July 19, 2018, Mitch McConnell, at the urging of Scott, Rubio and other unnamed cowardly GOP conspirators, withdrew the Bounds confirmation vote. 

       Make no mistake folks. As they did with Bounds, Democrats CAN AND WILLobstruct the Kavanaugh confirmation for as long as it takes, and they'll only stop obstructing it when they know they are able to sink it. 

       And all it takes for this foolishness to continue indefinitely is for Mitch McConnell (who has the authority and power to stop it at any moment) and RINOs to let them get away with it. 

       The time has come to take a stand and put an end to this idiocy. It's time to demand that our elected officials stop the obstruction and move the Kavanaugh nomination to the floor of the Senate and CONFIRM THIS NOMINEE on a fair up-or-down vote right here and right now!

P.S.  Remember, this Democrat obstruction can only continue as long as Mitch McConnell allows it to continue.  It's time to strike the fear of God into Mitch McConnell's heart.
