Democrats resort to mob rule

Today is October 6, 2018. The confirmation of Judge Kavanaugh is over and I hope we finally have a nation that is going to be governed by the US Constitution and laws and not mob rule.

I am sickened by the last two weeks of how the confirmation process for the Supreme Court has played out. From day 1 of the nomination process, Chuck Schumer and the Democrat Party vowed to fight Judge Kavanaugh’s confirmation every way they could. Well, this is one time the politicians did not lie.

Chuck Schumer and his minions have stooped to slander, false and unsubstantiated allegations, intimidation as well as witness tampering.

Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, and Diane Feinstein could not find anything wrong in Judge Kavanaugh’s legal and judicial resume in order to disqualify Judge Kavanaugh from the Supreme Court. Therefore, in order to stop Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination, they lowered themselves to use a woman (Dr. Christine Ford) that sent a letter to Senator Feinstein asking for anonymity that alleges Judge Kavanaugh attempted to sexually assault her while in high school. Dr. Ford’s story seems to have more holes than Swiss cheese.

While I am not going to judge whether she was sexually assaulted in her past or not, her recollections of who did it, do not fit the facts. Her witnesses, whom she claims knew of the assault and offenders, either do not remember anything like she said happened or do not even know Brett Kavenaugh.

Yet Schumer and Feinstein leaked this woman’s letter to the media to start the circus, after having the letter for over 6 weeks without any investigation. Moreover, nothing has been found to corroborate Dr. Ford’s allegations or any other allegations that have come out since.

Schumer and Feinstein may have done more to harm future women’s claims of bona fide sexual assault with their little stunt here, simply just to destroy a man’s reputation and lifelong work. People may now think that future sexual assault allegations are just a ploy for “15 minutes of fame” or revenge, which is truly a shame to those true victims who suffered a sexual assault.

Now we basically have the mob rule trying to ruin a man’s career and worse, destroying a man’s family; parents, wife, and children. Yes, Judge Kavanaugh was somewhat angry at the hearings. Who in this world would not be angry when totally unfounded and 100% unsubstantiated allegations are taken for the absolute truth? His wife was receiving unsolicited texts, emails, death threats.

I thought if anything he was controlled. But in the end Judge Kavanaugh was more than justified in his anger as this man’s honor and family were being destroyed by Chuck Schumer’s and Diane Feinstein’s sycophants with absolutely zero evidence to support the allegations.

I am very disappointed in our senator, Heidi Heitkamp, who has portrayed herself as a North Dakotan that is “independent” and listens to the citizens of ND as well as a Christian. ND overwhelmingly is in favor of Judge Kavanaugh. She did not listen to her ND constituents and fell into the mob mentality with the Schumer cronies.

Is anyone truly a Christian when they go for mob rule only to forward a political agenda? Is an organization really a Christian organization when the organization itself falls for mob rule? One of the most documented and well-known mob rulings in history is the Crucifixion of Christ. Jesus did not break the law, but only taught. However, the Romans and Jews did not like his beliefs or teachings. Why was Barabbas set free and Jesus crucified? Mob rule. Now we have senators and other politicians who claim to be Christians, Christian organizations, as well as many individual Christians themselves, who say Judge Kavanaugh is unfit for the Supreme Court due to his demeanor at the testimony.

This was simply a man that was fighting for his honor as well as his family’s honor from false and unsubstantiated allegations.
