YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

In the second day of his Supreme Court nomination confirmation hearing, Brett Kavanaugh told Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles Grassley that independence and “backbone” are critical qualities in a good judge. Citing landmark Supreme Court cases like Brown v. Board, Kavanaugh pointed to constitutional precedent and an understanding of how laws affect people, saying these factors should guide a judge’s decision-making.
