Flashback: Timeline of Democrats’ Brutal Attacks On Brett Kavanaugh
President Trump has stated that he will move “without delay” to name a nominee to fill the Supreme Court following the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Speculation is rampant about whom he will nominate, but one thing we can count on is Democrats behaving shamefully.
We know this because of the way they relentlessly and groundlessly tried to destroy Justice Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearings.
Here at LI, we covered that vile spectacle from beginning to end.

Ford’s testimony was a disaster for the anti-Kavanaugh mob, as we noted:
She couldn’t deliver. The persons she claimed were witnesses were unable to substantiate her claims, and it didn’t help that her story didn’t hold up even under the most casual scrutiny. Where did this assault take place? She didn’t know. When did it take place? She didn’t know. How did she get to the location of the assault or get home from that same location? She didn’t know. Who was there? She claimed that four people were and named them, but none of them substantiated her claim.Republicans did everything they could to hear her out, even offering at one point to come to California since she claimed she had a fear of flying (a fear that is debunked by her extensive air travel records). She had her day in front of the Senate committee, and it didn’t go well for her.
The fifty-eleventh FBI investigation into the litany of bogus sexual misconduct allegations turned up nothing
- Kavanaugh Open Thread: FBI reportedly could not confirm sexual misconduct accusations against Kavanaugh
- Grassley on Kavanaugh FBI Report: ‘There’s nothing in it that we didn’t already know…no hint of misconduct’
- Feinstein on FBI Report: ‘It looks to be a product of an incomplete investigation that was limited, perhaps by the White House’
Kavanaugh defended himself:
- Kavanaugh Speaks Up, Denies All Allegations: “I want a fair process where I can defend my integrity I know I’m telling the truth”
- Kavanaugh: ‘I Will Not be Intimidated Into Withdrawing’
- Kavanaugh on post-hearing hit: “I categorically and unequivocally deny this allegation”
The increasingly crazy allegations against Kavanaugh collapsed, one by one:
- Julie Swetnick’s rape train claims against Kavanaugh crash and burn in NBC Interview
- Here Come The False Claims Kavanaugh Lied About Drinking
- REPORT: Kamala Harris Joins the Anonymous, Unsubstantiated Claim Party
- Mark Judge denies gang rape party accusations as “bizarre” and “outlandish”
- REPORT: 60 Kavanaugh Classmates to Sign Letter Saying They Have No Memory of Parties Swetnick Referenced, or Swetnick
- Senate Judiciary refers Julie Swetnick and Michael Avenatti for criminal investigation (Updated)
- NBC News turns on Michael Avenatti over Julie Swetnick, but it concealed problem (Updated)
- New Kavanaugh accuser “reluctant to characterize Kavanaugh’s role in the alleged [Yale] incident with certainty”
- All named eyewitnesses dispute Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford’s story
A witness was allegedly pressured to change her testimony:
Rhode Island Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse beclowned himself:
Sen. Kamala Harris lied about Kavanaugh on birth control
No, Kavanaugh “did not refer to contraceptives as ‘abortion-inducing drugs’ as his own view, he was summarizing Priests for Life’s case”
And then there was the infamous “bland eater” allegation:
The pile-on by various leftwing activists and agitators was, at that time, shocking:
- Disregard law professors’ letter opposing Kavanaugh on temperament – It’s political, not legal principles
- Kavanaugh Evening Open Thread: Ashley Kavanaugh Receiving Death Threats
- Hillary tweets Kamala Harris’ Big Lie about Kavanaugh and birth control days after it’s thoroughly debunked

- Yale Law School Students and Alums: “People Will Die” if Kavanaugh is Confirmed
- Susan Rice’s Pro-Kavanaugh Son Allegedly Assaulted on Stanford Campus

Anti-Kavanaugh activists harassed and threatened Republican lawmakers:

- Rand Paul Targeted by Anti-Kavanaugh Protesters in DC Airport
- Activists Threatening and Trying to Bribe Senator Collins and Staff Over Kavanaugh Vote
- Rep. Eric Swalwell, Jennifer Rubin Mock Sen. Susan Collins Over Threats
The media, of course, was all-in against Kavanaugh:
- Report: CNN links “Kavanaugh” and “rape” 191 times over an 18-day period
- NY Times removes key language helpful to Kavanaugh from article about Yale accuser Ramirez
- NY Times Seeking Kavanaugh Family’s 911 Calls From the Past 12 Years
- NY Times and AP reportedly seek work emails of Brett Kavanaugh’s WIFE
- NYT Reporters Say Editors Removed Info That Supposed Kavanaugh Victim Didn’t Recall Incident
All of this was too much for Sen. Lindsey Graham:
Ultimately:

If anything, Democrats and their burning, looting, murdering hordes will be even more brazenly, disgracefully awful this time.
