The Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday formally postponed a vote on Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court nomination, canceling a meeting set for later this week where a vote was initially expected to happen.
Staffers for Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (https://thehill.com/people/chuck-grassley) (R-Iowa) sent out a notice that the Thursday business meeting had been canceled. The Senate is expected to leave town for the week on Tuesday.


The delay for a vote to advance Kavanaugh's nomination was widely expected following allegations from Christine Blasey Ford, a professor who alleges that Kavanaugh held her down and tried to remove her clothes at a party in the early 1980s when both were in high school.


Kavanaugh has denied the allegations.

Not only will he be confirmed, but I predict the Dems will not take back the house.

So they need to be at least two seats ahead for a House flip
to really make possible their most intense wishes in terms of
the maximum discomfort they can inflict on The DONALD???

The Impeachment Trifecta used to be TRUMP, PENCE and RYAN.
Now it might hypothetically be Trump, Kavanaugh and Pence!!!

The Constitution requires a two-thirds super majority to convict a person being impeached.
